    From Woj (who else?)-

    G-State restricted free agent Anthony Morrow has slew of interest, including Spurs, Celtics, Lakers, Blazers, Clips and Jazz, sources say.
    This makes MUCH more sense than the Wes Matthews target. Morrow is a guy I have targeted for hte Blazers since the beginning of the season. He's pure instant offense who could thrive playing strictly behind Roy (15 minutes). That is a lot of competition from him so it may take the full MLE to scare away the other teams as well as dissuade Golden State from matching it.

    This guy is somewhat like Martel, very streaky. Seemed like every time he played us though, he went off for like 10 threes a game. I wouldn't mind another player who can shoot the lights out. He will be able to easily spread the floor for our guys.
    I am a fan of having a completely healthy team for once.

    Although he is streaky, I think he is a better "pure" shooter than Webster.

    Webster's Stats From 09-10:
     
    Season Team G GS MPG FG% 3p% FT% OFF DEF RPG APG SPG BPG TO PF PPG
    09-10 POR 82 49 24.5 0.405 0.373 0.813 0.6 2.7 3.3 0.8 0.6 0.5 0.7 1.9 9.4

    Morrow's Stats From 09-10:

     
    Season Team G GS MPG FG% 3p% FT% OFF DEF RPG APG SPG BPG TO PF PPG
    09-10 GSW 69 37 29.2 0.468 0.456 0.886 0.9 2.9 3.8 1.5 0.9 0.2 1.2 2.3 13.0
    Morrow played about 5 more minutes than Webster shot nearly 7% better from the field, 9% better from 3,and 7% better from the foul line. Webs played better defense but Morrow wouldn't need to be a great defender. His job would be like Rudy's was..go out there and SHOOT! Those stats look really solid and the Warriors are in the process of selling their team to new ownership, so I wouldn't worry about GS matching our offer, rather other teams offering more.

    You could trade the pick for someone like Sanders or someone young and a little more developed and hope Noel does not surpass them.

    Noel was playing at around 220 so I doubt the added weight will slow him down too much the guy just needs to continue his rehab and hit the weight room and he will be fine.

    As long as he stops pulling the ball down in the post I will be happy nothing more annoying than watching that happen several times a game

    Paul Allen might sell the Blazers but the Blazers will never leave Rip City.
