    Geez! I don't get all this Batum hate in here. Talk about piss poor performances of last season and the playoff in particular, it was not Batum that played no defense. It was not Batum who chucked up a rim clank from three range time after time. If a trade was made because of piss poor performance, somebody wasn't watching, they got the wrong man.
    This looks like blow it up to me, Neal traded our second best player for a guy that could not even get minutes.

    Not great value for Batum at all. I would think we could have gotten more for him...maybe no one else wanted to overpay him...I find humor that its ex blazers GM Cho that trades for him...better a low seed east team then a west team...still that hurts...I don't envy Olshey right now, but I know he must have something up his sleeve. Otherwise he'd have Paul Allen up his ass...and the fans to boot...I think we will see more today...that said Gerald Henderson...uggghh. Not the worst player, but not a starter and not a small Forward...what a logjam at the SG....Vonleh? Olshey better know what he is doing...because he is starting to remind me of Nash.

    I think this was as much about chemistry as anything else.
