Just be glad the Blazers didn't do this again

OK, so the whole "signing" of Hedo Turkoglu turned out to be bogus. But it could have been worse. Remember this?

Question: How do you see Trenton fitting into the rotation?

Maurice Cheeks: Trent and Derek Anderson can be at the two and Damon Stoudamire and Nick Van Exel at the one. That gives us flexibility and a great rotation. With Trent and Theo Ratliff being our two defenders, it gives us a better chance to win ballgames.

WOW

I thought they had taken all that off the net with all of Paul Allens power and burnt it. Thanks for the blast frmo the past. Now I need to take a scalding hot shower to get the coke grim felling off my body

What's the differance of 3-6 mil? oh about 20+ more losses, and the chance to watch the only star leave by the end of the season. Suck it Hedo!

hah.

“Question: What do you think about the Trail Blazers?

Trenton Hassell: I’m just glad to be here and have the opportunity to play for a great coach. I know Portland has a great team. They beat Minnesota 3 out of 4 times last year. "

Who hasn’t beaten Minnesota 3 out of 4 times?

"There are a few teams you have to watch out for in the fourth quarter."
"Yeah, but Portland definitely is not one of them."

-New Orleans Hornets broadcasters at the end of the third quarter with the Hornets leading 74-59. Portland later ends up winning 97-89.

"They don't mind him shooting that shot at all. Rudy Fernandez is not that great of a 3pt shooter."

-New Orleans Hornets broadcasters right after a Rudy Fernandez missed 3pter. Rudy Fernandez finished the game with three 3pters on six attempts.

Blazers needs? The Blazers still need a back up power forward and IMO Antonio McDyess is that player that they need at that spot. And McDyess is a very good Vet.
Mark ‘Dyess’ down for a double-double each night. After re-joining Detroit mid-season, the polite veteran posted a workmanlike 10 points and 10 rebounds per game. McDyess could replace Yao in Houston, where he, coincidentally, has his off-season home. But if KP can Make him an offer and let him know Portland is where he needs to be if he wants a RING. The Blazers need McDyess as their back up power forward/Center. And he won’t cost as much as Lee and IMO you get the same thing from both players. And I like D.Harris better then A.Miller and that just MO
