    Is it just me or does every team that signs Boozer immediately start sliding into the toilet?

    Boozer and Kaman on the floor at the same time might make the worst frontcourt in Blazer history.

    It's not just you. I warned people here who wanted him when Chicago first signed him to stay away from him.
    The majority of Utah fans were glad when he left.

    Plus we keep our pick the next two years if we are in the lottery; then Denver only gets a 2nd rounder from the Afflalo trade. A small silver lining but thank gosh Neil insisted on that so we aren't in a position that Brooklyn, New York or the Lakers are in next year.

    Even now Robin is trying to help us. If the Bucks agree to a deal with him it removes our main competitor to signing Monroe.

    We'd have to take more salary back than just a rookie contract. Think I might rather just get cap space.

    A lot of Blazer fans want what we don't have. If we have a big defensive guard they want a smaller one that can dribble. If we have a good defender they want a player who shoots better threes. If we have a knock down shooter they want someone who is an elite passer.

    Players aren't going to be elite at everything; otherwise we'd have a team of LeBron's. The trick is finding players with more positives than negatives; and negatives you can fit into the Blazers schemes.

    He's 19. When he earns minutes that'll be great. Neil needs to assemble the roster assuming he is out of the rotation and when injuries happen or Vonleh earns those minutes we'll deal with the problem then. Last year we had major injuries to Wes achilies, Afflalo shoulder, LaMarcus' finger, Robins hand, Wrights arm and Kaman's ankle. Lets wait and worry about having too much depth from unproven players when it actually becomes a problem.

    They just need to do a minor move; dump a Morris twin or a bad contract. They have 4 extra first round picks so it'll be far easier for them than the Spurs dumping Splitter.

    Mavs losing all their free agents. They should've never broken up the 2010 title winning team. Ever since its been a mess of random new players each year.
