    It seemed to me that a lot of the conversations was that Roy and Miller couldn't play together.  However, Roy is out and hopefully done for the season to give him time to rest.  After watching us play, I like the line up that we have.  We are still deep, long and athletic I think that if Blazer management was smart they would make an announcement bout Roy so the team can move on and put that distraction behind them.  I still think that without Roy we are a top 8 team in the west and if we get on a little roll we might even move up.  The combo of Miller/LA is a great combo with Rudy/Batum/Mathews roaming the wings is solid I think. 

    I personally don't think we need a trade at the moment.  Let the guys play a few games see how we go, I think we are deep enough to ride this one out once we let the guys adjust to new rolls and get into a groove.

    Good points, I think after this next stretch of playing good teams we can get a honest gauge on our personal and the potential for the playoffs.

    Yes! Give the guys a little time to settle into this new configuration and try it out on some tougher teams. we might not be "deep" enough, chopsui101, but we're tough enough. ;-)

    Well this pretty much forces Nate to put 5 men on the floor whether he likes it or not. People are getting some playing time so we can now actually see what they can do and get them improved. Playoffs I am not really worried about,if we make it I am ecstatic, if we dont we can blame it on Sean Marks for not living up to his potential. (I forgot who posted that math but it was hilarious. it boiled down to we traded 5 people to get him).
      I do like the team that is out there now. run and gun seems to work well for us especially with being tough on defense.

    I believe a deal will take place before the end of this month, as a trade is the best way to utilize the injury exception granted the Blazers by the league for GO.

    Direction is the operative word now in P'town.  What DIRECTION does owner Paul Allen want to take?  Without knowing THAT, everything is pure conjecture.

    Run and gun, while entertaining, only nets teams wins during the regular season, and only against teams not headed for the postseason.  Just ask Golden State.

    This post took me all the way down the garden path, phew, it's not about Patty Mills being relegated back to a bench warmer.

    sign Iggy for 8-9M, Batum at the two, and Wesley off the bench! Draft Steven Adams (who loves contact, grew up playing rug-bee). Sounds NICE!

    Love Okafor, hate his contract. Nenê is sweet too. I like the Wizards. Fan of wall. Also you guys watching Danny Green? Dude is insane.

    Im not impressed with Gortat. Everyone wants him but he seems mediorcre to me. He is the most realistic option since all it would take is the 10th pick, but I think he is old and declining.
