simmons cant believe it
sportsguy33: Did the Clips really just give away Marcus Camby for Steve Blake + Travis Outlaw? Please tell me that wasn’t the whole trade.

WHAT? BUT I LOVE STEVE BLAKE!
LOL, not really. If this trade is for real it’s a pretty good deal since if we really miss TO or SB we can pick them back up this summer.
Best of luck to Steve and Travis
I feel horrible sending them to the clippers

Like this deal
Did anyone see us re-signing Blake or Trout next year? This helps us out for the rest of this year while sacrificing nothing long term.
At the same time, bummer to see two great guys leave in Outlaw and Blake. Hope those two guys get great ovations next time they are in the RG, and hope they GTFO of LA at the end of the year.
Rejoice!

yess he shall look like this!!
Batum doesn't use email,
he uses his mind to transmit his thoughts to other people. that is how he intimidates his opponents without ever talking to them
and he will wear a headband just like that and will be number 46

Sad to see Blake and TO go
But this is a great deal for us.

indeed
maybe he can teach Lamarcus that its ok to play defense and get rebounds

biggest downside though
no more talkin’ with travis. i really wanted to see him ask rudy where his sex appeal came from

NOOOOO!
Travis! Come back! I didn’t want any trades this year.

maybe it's not true.

Neither did I
But this is actually a good one since it does NOT mortgage our future.

In the end we need to remember
That we love the jersey not the player.
True some love Blake and/or Outlaw but we will have a chance in 3 1/2 months to get them back possibly sooner if the Clips cut them

well, that just ruined my week
Travis was like… the last of the Mohicans, or something.

does this mean he'll play as a blazer tomorrow?

by portlandgiirl91 on Feb 15, 2010 10:25 PM PST reply actions
Doubtful
Usually takes 24-48 hours for players to be officially traded, so probably Friday.

eww
not sure i’ll like this. how convenient that we play em tomorrow!

by portlandgiirl91 on Feb 15, 2010 10:28 PM PST up reply actions
but i don't think he'll play as a clip either tho
so tomorrow we’ll be short blake and they’ll be short camby? i’ll take that.

most likely not
have to sign the deal, pass physicals, take photos, etc.

This day saddens me greatly… Good luck Trout and Blakey
Miller to Oden FTW!
i was wondering how long it would take to see this. lol.
Actually, I’d like to see some Patty Mills too.

More realistically, this frees more minutes for Rudy with Andre instead of the two-PG system.

Good trade but sad to see Travis go
he was one of my favorite players on the team. he was a perfect 6th man. doesnt complain, makes shots in the 4th quarter. i would rather see martell & blake go, than travis. Good luck travis!
BLAAAAAAAAKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." -- Bertrand Russell
I hope this is true.
Blake sucks (ok, maybe a little harsh) and is playing in a very crowded backcourt and we will probably resign Outlaw this summer, and if we dont, we probably wouldnt have regardless of the trade.
Centers that get 12 rebounds per game don’t grow on trees either. Plus, his contract is expiring, so when we get Greg and Joel back (and dont need him), he will be gone.
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get well Greg! Rip City is still behind you!
From a fantasy standpoint, do you guys expect Camby’s production this season to at least remain equal to what he was producing in LA?
I would guess so since we don't have anyone on the team that's heathy and rebounding.
by Flapbreaker on Feb 15, 2010 10:30 PM PST up reply actions
I like Camby
But that dude is old. Cant we lure anybody over here who isnt over 33 years old? Solid trade though
Blake and Travis were stand up guys, but this definitely makes sense. I’ll miss the Travis pull up J and Blakes 3pt daggers.

I can't believe the Clips did this trade
Ridiculous.

Now KP can regret trading Blake a second time.
"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." -- Bertrand Russell
Most likely, Blake and Camby will both sit because the trade will be pending physicals, etc.

This trade was as much for Jerryd as it was for Camby

and for Rudy, I'll bet.

I talked to Debbie Blake, Steve'ssister, today at The Game
and she said that the constant lineup changes has been taking its toll mentally on all of the players. This move should help solidify a lot.

We'll miss you Steve and Travis...
But this will definitely make us better.
Okay, so I won’t miss Travis’ wild, fade-away turnaround jumpers over much smaller defenders. But for the most part I’ll miss them.
