Poor Economy influencing trade decisions

Cool article, the last two paragraphs feature the Blazers.

After reading the article, you have to believe the Blazers have a once-in-a-long-while opportunity to pull off a fantastic trade. I know some folks want to stand pat, but how can you sit on an opportunity like this: RLEC, good young talent, and teams desperately looking to shed payroll. After Roy, LMA and Oden are re-signed, we won't see the likes of this again for a long long time.

Exactly why I think there is something BIG brewing. I mean we haven't heard much from KP as of late have we?

I haven't

And that is one of the reasons I think something might be brewing.

I’ve been dubious, but KP has been pretty quiet, it seems to me. And there are too many rumors running around — I think some big deals are going to happen, and I won’t be surprised if KP is in one or more of them.

When I rule the world, everyone will know how to use Excel.

IS it feasible to upgrade Pryz for Chandler?

RLEC matches Chandler and they’d likely want Another big coming back and so we’d need to swp some other assets to make salaries match. Does giving up Diogu or Frye get us another 3?

I jsut can’t past the idea of a center-tandem of Chandler and Oden. I doubt our opponents would either.

I don't like chandler

He’s kind of an [expletive]. When he intentionally hit prizbilla’s injured risk in an attempt to harm him and risked damaging the vanilla gorilla’s career, I thought it should be at least a 10 or 20 game suspension. Similiar to how Bowen should be suspended when he hurts someone’s ankle.
