    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My guess would be that the Blazers don't want Nurkic to play, but he does want to play and they don't want to completely extinguish his hopes. So rather than "out," they make it "doubtful." And maybe they haven't completely closed off all possibility of him playing, but I'd guess that they'd really rather he didn't.

    I actually think they would. Remember, other teams always believe they can "fix" the guy they get. OKC can get a big man who can shoot the 3, when Westbrook is double teamed. Doesn't that sound appealing?
    I think Kanter can have a good effect on our team. He is a skilled big man, who can score in the post. He is not a great rebounder, but he can occupy space. He could get minutes at Center and PF. Yes, he would be overpaid ... but, who isn't? We can throw in scrubs and draft picks to make it work salary wise.

    Oh shit, I guess I asked for too much even in DVD format. Maybe a good link to the trailer for E.T. on YouTube?

    Kanter 18mil+ scrubs for Meyers 9mil + Maurice H. 9mil + scrubs
    We have 3 picks and can find a PF in the draft.

    Blake Griffith done for the playoffs (again). This guy can't stay healthy. Same thing every year. And when healthy, he has to blow a lead against Rockets.
    Would you take Blake G. for all 3 of our first round picks and some scrubs?
    Blake + Nurk + Damon + CJ would be a great foursome.

    He and Rose come from the same womb. Constantly injured players is not Portland acceptance.

    We could keep him on the shelf the whole season and only ball him during the playoffs. I mean, we can win 45 games with Nurk, Damon and CJ alone.

    Looks like he's out for game 3. This is bullshit. The only reason I wanted Portland to make the playoffs was to see how well they could do with Nurk, but the may as well have gone to the lottery.
