    There are point guards the Suns could pursue in free agency too, like one who has struck their interest (Portland outcast Raymond Felton) and one they traded to Houston (Goran Dragic).

    Much rather have B-Roy as a reserve guard.

    I still wish that we'd gotten to see Felton run this team for a FULL season after a training camp and a summer that he knew where he'd be playing, as opposed to being in limbo with the lockout then having no training camp and a condensed season all with a new team. I think he's got a great attitude, he's tricky like Andre was, yet younger and (don't hate) shoots the ball better.

    Not denying that last season was poor for Ray. He knows it, and he's said it. Watch his exit interview on the BlazerTV page. He also knows how to focus

    I think it's alot more important that his assist/turnover ratio was extremely better in the 2nd half of the season (even though everyone had already passed judgement on his abilities), and he shot as consistently as Jamal or maybe even Wesley (who also both slumped, yet don't get blamed as bad as Felton), and among our guards he was the ONLY one who would make attempts at taking it to the rim every single game, instead of just hoping for that outside jumper.

    I'm not sayin we don't need to find another point guard to lead us, but Nolan is more of a combo guard than a point, so if we don't get Lillard and an experienced starter, I'd rather keep Felton around for help than rely on Nolan to carry part of the load.

    We saw him play some backup point about mid-season, and he had a solid contribution off the bench. He had a bad season overall, but he still didn't play terribly. It essentially felt like another season with Jarrett Jack or Steve Blake at the helm. But the entire team was in flux, so most of the blame fell to him for not creating out of nothing and dishing assists to inconsistent shooters...

    So, as long as he's not starting, I'm fine with him staying in Portland. However, I'm pretty sure he's at the point in his career where he won't sign with a team unless they offer him a starting role. Phoenix (without Nash) would be prepared to offer him just that.

    I love the Grit and Grind, and I love the Spurs timeless play. I think if the Spurs get to the finals, they will beat the heat, but they won''t beat the Grizzlies easily, and the Grizz can''t beat the Heat. I know it''s weird.

    Charlotte is the team that would take the 13 and 10 for their 4th.

    Not sure Oladipo or Mclemore is worth two late lottery picks, even in a weak draft.   I would LOVE to grab one of them but there is plenty of talent left. 2> 1 I would...

    Ahead of Carmelo are you shitting me? Melo ped 28.7 and 6.9 Reb his PER was almost 25. He shot better from the field and from beyond the arc than Batum. 


    Batum at his best cannot hold Melo''s jock and that is a fact.&nb...
