    He's probably a little nervous, go easy on the guy.

    hey, as long as he can work a mad Excel sheet, who needs speaking skills when negotiating? being able to communicate is overrated. Its all about how good you are at math.

    It's probably the spotlight. I'm sure he'll get over it.

    So do the Blazers need an orator or a deal-maker?

    He said it was his first-ever press conference. I'm just having fun with it, but on some level, it does show his inexperience in being the front man.

    Speaking is a big part of negotiations. More so than the ability to do math. Much of it is about knowledge and confidence and being able to persuade the other party.

    I'm not convinced that they have either in Cho.

    Well that's hard to believe given his 3-hour track record. What more does the man have to do?

    Miller came off good in the interview.

    I liked that he said they had stuff in the works, and haven't just been sitting on their hands.

    Miller came off good in the interview??? During one part of the interview, JC was saying that the NBA is a results business, and we haven't seen much results this year. Larry Miller's response was literally this: "We're farther along this year than we were last year, we're going to get our free agent (Matthews) this year, you know, we didn't get our free agent Paul Millsap last year...and you know we didn't get Turkoglu....*awkward pause*...anyways, the point is we're working towards making the team better."

    He seemed really flustered to me.
