    Free Agents:
    Nene- Denver Nuggets
    DeAndre Jordan- Los Angeles Clippers
    James Jones- Miami Heat
    Aaron Brooks- Phoenix Suns
    etc....

    Nene said it best himself, why would the trailblazers want another center with a history of injuries?  Arron Brooks is my pick I think we should pick up Kenneth as a back up PF in the draft and get Arron Brooks as our back up point he is young willing to come here and has the potential to be a really nice starter for the future.  This situation immediately alleviates over playing LaMarcus and helps solve our PG for the future (still think we should keep patty I want to see a future of brooks as a starter with mills as our backup)
      It still leaves our center position a bit shaky but i'm hoping if we focus on our backup PG and PF first to create a really solid bench we can then see where Camby, Oden and Chris Johnson stand and maybe make a significant center position move around half way through the season since i want to see how all 3 of the above mentioned centers fare Oden achieving his potential, Camby getting old, and chris' development are all big factors that to me are still up in the air.
    I am a fan of a team who values integrity and shows great heart.

    I don't understand peoples fascination with Patty Mills.
    The Blazers WILL NEVER win a championship with Patty as the back-up PG.
    A third string, towel waiving, seat warming cheerleading PG? Sure.
    But as a back-up PG...Get real.

    You're going to need a back up PG a hell of alot more solid than Mr. Mills to bring home a 'ship son.

    Patty's handles are suspect, and Armon isnt fast enough. Thats what we need, is a ball handling playmaker with cat quick speeed. Noting else will do. Id be tempted to give up Rudy,Patty,Babbitt and the 51st pick for him to be the change of pace we need coming off the bench behind Miller. It takes alot of the ball handling duties off of Roy,who has typically had to bring the ball up and set up the pllays. If he gets it with about 15 seconds on the clock he can go to work.

    First off Damian- Jack will make a lot more than 4 million next year. At minimum he will get a couple MLE offers starting at 5.15 million. Tony Allen will also get many MLE offers so to sign either will take at least 6 million probably closer to 8...

    Thanks Ricky.   I''ll be watching @ 10.   Haven''t seen enough right hand from Shazamm.   Without the ability to take his defender either way off the bounce, let alone finish at the cup with either hand?   Second rounder at best.
