I found this on insidehoops.com

It must be said the Nuggets could have competition in their big-man search from Portland. The Trail Blazers already have lost center Greg Oden for the season due to a knee injury and his replacement, Joel Przybilla, went down Tuesday night with a serious knee injury.

I really don't like people with access to huge audiences that don't have a clue what they're doing.

for better or worse.

He is just spitballing a trade idea

not a good one for the Blazers either. Portland would give up Miller, Outlaw and Mills for 1/2 season rental of Boozer? No way. I don’t believe Kp will make a panic trade like this, he should make a trade, but it has to be with the future in mind. A Blake for Bass or something like that is what KP is looking for.

that is iffy

teams that are under the cap do not have to follow the “2-month” rule about trading players they just aquired, and while the team is under the cap now, after this type of trade I don’t believe they would be. So my guess is that they would have to wait 2 months, which means after the trade deadline.

yes, positive

boozer is looking for a big payday, something the Blazers will not be willing to give.

Why would we want Boozer?

LMA hasn’t played consistent, but he’s quite a bit better defender than Boozer, despite not being perfect.

Boozer is a better scorer and rebounder.

and CB would probably rather play in Miami

than for another team ‘way out in the NBA’s hinterlands

Boozer would be a bad “fit” in PDX, every which way

I agree...Blake for Bass...not Miller for ANYONE. He is a veteran..a competitor who doesn't

CHOKE. He can teach..and already HAS! Did you SEE the lob from Roy last night? I don’t think I ever saw Roy lob to anyone last year!!! Also Bayless is making some very nice passes…even Blake makes the occasional pass he never made before Andre came and opened their eyes…
He needs to stick around to continue.

by Natsthecat on Dec 23, 2009 12:54 PM PST up reply actions  

I agree

but I fear that Roy and Nate will “vote” for Blake and KP will listen to them and flip Andre

Marcin Gortat

Anyone?

Being a Blazer fan is not exactly healthy.

by dpnim on Dec 23, 2009 2:14 PM PST reply actions   1 recs

I'd love to get him

But Orlando is trying to win a title, and because he’s a good backup big who is young, they will keep him for a while I’m sure.

Just because he doesn’t play much, doesn’t mean they don’t know he’ll be big in the playoffs if Howard is in foul trouble, ya know?

Would be cool if he was gettable, though, for sure…

if we've taught other front offices anything this season...

it’s that you can’t have enough depth in the front court. Well, at the wing positions either. Or the 2 spot.
I suppose all we’ve taught the league is that you can’t prepare enough for any injuries.

And that after our previous big-man tragedies hubris doesn’t seem to exist in the NBA. Or, after our disheartening injuries to Nic, Greg, Travis, etc , time doesn’t exist either. Not time in the Greek sense, anyway. In the “out 6-12 months” sense yes it definitely does exist, though.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
