Rudy Fernandez Trade Talk Cools, At Least For Now
Almost as soon as it began, the excitement surrounding a potential Rudy Fernandez trade has apparently cooled tonight.
Brian T. Smith tweets that "nothing is imminent."
---------------------
No "substantial" new info regarding Fernandez and Blazers during last week. "Nothing has changed," source close to Fernandez says.
Does Fernandez want to be moved? Yes. Are Blazers exploring options? Yes. But there has not been an "ultimatum" delivered, sources say.
Blazers are exploring trade options for Fernandez. But this has been going on for more than a month, and nothing is imminent.
---------------------
Jason Quick now says give it a few days at least.
---------------------
Rudy trade talks likely on back burner until Sunday. GM Cho tells agent Andy Miller he will meet w/coach McMillan in Vegas on Sun to discuss
---------------------
What a dramatic turn of events.

I am glad...
All the trade rumors have Portland not getting a good return in a deal.
They will stay that way, Rudy should have been gone last season...
I’ve said repeatedly that him and Blake needed to go. Blake went away and the PG spot got a lot better. Rudy needs to run and turn it over like Blake did. He would fit a fast pace crap team so he can jack up shots all over the court like he does in shootarounds.
A little harsh don't you think?
You write as if they never positively contributed to the team. I consider them both to have had a far greater positive impact than negative. Rudy no longer fits on the squad but he is a VERY good player.
Harsh is right
Wow. The fact is Rudy is behind our best player, so that makes it hard for him to get minutes. He’s still a dynamic player that will make an impact on another team. Blake is now on the Lakers, so he’ll (unfortunately) probably be playing for a championship. He’s not as good as Miller, but his 3 pt shooting makes him a lot closer than people give him credit for. Especially when you consider that Roy should have the ball in his hands creating shots for his teammates instead of the point guard. Hopefully a Miller trade will fix that debacle.

Well what I basically mean is they never showed up for the playoffs, Blake the season before, and Rudy this year
Neither of them could figure out how to defend, I saw Blake get completely owned by 80% of PG’s in the league (and that’s including backups). His playoff series against the Rockets was embarassing. Granted Aaron Brooks is a very talented PG that nobody wanted to guard. He was jacking up horrible 3s 5 feet behind the three point line, and making bad decisions (like trapping himself in the corner and picking up his dribble without options)
Rudy, well… Sure he made some threes, his rookie record for 3’s made was great. But 2nd year you usually get a good idea about a player and what he brings to the table day in day out. He takes bad shots, or completely passes up good shots to give someone else a more contested shot. He has some flashy passes, a good percentage of the time they were slightly off, or the receiver didn’t know they were coming. The 2nd one is not his fault. His field goal percentage was 38%, three point 37%. That’s not good enough to want more minutes. He’s been on the big stage in the world, but can’t show up to a playoff game when he starts? I had faith in Rudy, but something screams James Jones to me. A good shooter that’s all when it comes down to it. The Blazers don’t break so he can run, so when he runs he spots up at the 3 point line. Doesn’t work in Portland
I think I hear the truck backing up...
So you realized what you wrote was an overreaction that made you look ignorant in the eyes of objective, intelligent fans. No need to justify what you wrote. Just say “sorry that was dumb. I will think before I write next time.”
I notice this being the trend with Blazer fans. Lose objectivity to emotion and forget reality then OVERREACT. An example would be how Blazer fans now hate Lebron for NOTHING. He was a FA. He signed with another team. He did it on ESPN. People forget that he donated the money and no one had to wait until news people posted it. Drexler went to Houston, Griffey went to Cincinnati and A-Rod went to Houston and fewer people flipped out then.
FYI, I say stupid things a lot and then I own up and apologize. Done. Even on the internet.
May he was just in a sophmore slump
Would be better to take him into training camp and see how he fits. Then use the trade deadline to move him. I wonder what he numbers were when Greg was health?
None of the possible trades
have left me with the feeling, “this will make us better”. In fact…all of them suck. ’Sheed? Please…
He would be worth it just to play

Rondo is plenty
Ray Allen is not that good anymore, like Reggie Miller at the end, a deep shooter/FT shooter that can be counted on to make some crazy shots, but not play D or run consistently.
Rajon “Juwanna Mann” Rondo on the other hand is a great PG, too bad he wouldn’t work with Roy needing the ball as much as he does
Quick's DRAMA
The next 24-48 hours there will be some drama from the Portland Trailblazers…
So the “drama” was somebody we already knew wanted out asked for a trade. Then out of nowhere… BAM nothing happened.
We knew Rudy wanted to get out of being a backup SG, whatever. Where did you get the pic of Rudy Sexual Tyrannosaurus? (BTW loved that movie!)
The Drama is unbearable Quick. Yawn
I can’t wait for Rudy’s agent to call Cho to “go for the jugular” and gets a recording.

Give credit to Quick for going out on a limb to claim breakage of this story
Me? I’m going to concentrate on the fact that he cut off the limb.
In KP I trusted!
If Rudy gets a chance...
he will be a star. It just won’t happen with Nate. Nate tries to adapt players to his system instead of developing a system that takes advantage of player’s strengths. If Rudy gets on a team that gives him a chance, he will be a special player.
I will exclude BRoy from this comment – the offense is built for Roy as he is now. (Sadly, Roy would be better if he learned to play off the ball.) I don’t know if this is because Roy plays Nate’s style or if Nate think’s Roy’s current play is the best he and the Blazer’s can do. But, the focus on Roy is why Roy had trouble with Oden before his injury, why he can’t play with Andre, why Channing couldn’t contribute on this team, why Bayless is a 5th wheel. And Nate says over and over, I want to run more, but continues to bring us a plodding style. Don’t get me started.
There’s been a lot of criticism of Rudy’s play last season. The general comment has been, “When Rudy got a chance he couldn’t deliver.” I don’t think this is fair. First, last season Rudy had the back surgery – tough to stand out when you’re not 100%. And, looking at the playoffs, when Rudy came in, he’d be wide open, but wouldn’t get the ball. This happened over and over and over, and that is a coaching issue not a player issue.
I hope Rudy gets traded just so he gets a chance to play.
Sigh, at least I won't have to listen to "Blazer fans" defending Rudy for too much longer
Nate played Brandon out of position at SF for the last 2 years for no other reason than to give Rudy more minutes, and this is the thanks that they get for it

Nate certainly isn't blameless, here
Rudy for all his warts was a better option than Blake in the 3-guard lineup – but McMillan pandering to Miller and Blake cost Rudy time when Rudy was clearly a better option.

you hated a 7-2 record?
tough crowd
McMillian and his system is a Blazer reality (for now) and I see no point in railing against him and/or Roy. If you want a new coach, then root for the Blazers to lose in the first round, again. I’d rather watch them reach the finals next spring, boring ISO offense and all

How else would you describe it?
If the Blazers break through and reach the semis, or hopefully the finals, Nate’s “haters” will claim that the team won in spite of his system. But the team’s post season success will probably lead to a long-term extension for McMillian and more years for the arm-chair coaches to complain about him.
I take a more realistic approach. Nate is here, the owner likes him so let’s work with what we’ve got. It’s easy to say he’s messing up or that there’s a better coach “out there” who could be more successful, but all of the complaining in the world isn’t going to shorten McMillian’s Blazer career by one game. Only a playoff loss in the first round will (likely) do that.
I think that’s a sorry way to be a fan, to look forward to a future coaching change because you think the current head coach is inept. I’d rather look forward to progress, and 3 new assistants with a different way of looking at the roster and how to go about tweaking the offense/defense is a shift from the status quo, if nothing else
If Nate’s new staff doesn’t work out and the team doesn’t advance next April, then we’ll all find out next offseason who the next head coach will be

by your logic - any negative discussion is a cry for validation
I don’t need to be proven right (bad results) to feel good about calling McMillan’s offense simplistic. I don’t need a player to perform poorly to justify criticism.
You don’t get to call me anti-Blazer because I don’t like Miller or McMillan’s system. For one, you are wrong – and for two – it’s a logical copout. Either discuss the merits of the dislike or not – but don’t challenge my motives for discontent by challenging my patriotism.

If you take it to an extreme, yeah
but we both know that there are Nate-haters who would like nothing more than to see him gone (yesterday) and I’m wondering out loud how are they supposed to enjoy the team if that’s their constant mindset?
I’m not saying that Blazer-related topics can’t be broached with critical analysis, because I do it all the time. So don’t set up a straw man that I’m saying that Nate’s or his system can’t ever be scrutinized, because I’ve never implied that to be the case.

I can't see a move happening until the Turkey games are over.
If Rudy goes out there and dominates, there will be better deals floated. Until then, teams only have to bring up the playoffs if a trade is getting too steep (was gonna write “rich”, but wasn’t ready to start that punathon).
Stealth > Wealth
the tournament ends on Sept 12, according to Norsk
Rudy’s agent will insist that he’s dealt long before then, probably as early as next week

BREAKING NEWS!!!
This just in ….. Rudolfo Fernandez is still a Blazer. Updates as we get them.
In related news, Jason Quick, the embattled Portland Trail Blazer beat writer for the Oregonian is said to be contemplating using the rare, but surprisingly successful, “I misquoted myself” defense to explain the hype he generated around his recent investigative report that led to the current drama surrounding the above mentioned Fernandez.

Let that be a lesson to you
The next time Jason shares a “big scoop” on 95.5, resist the urge to create a fanshot
let someone else get played by the Quickster
BTW, Barrett is now saying that he heard Batum’s name was NOT in those CP3 discussions before the draft
Who to believe, Mike or Jason?…hmmm…tough decision
When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
The next time Jason shares a "big scoop" on 95.5, resist the urge to create a fanshot
Some of us had a lot of fun with those fanshots (235 comments in the initial fanshot and 122 comments in the day 2 followup fanshot). Sorry if you didn’t enjoy it.
When I spoke to Mike Barrett on 95.5 I told him I was 95% sure it was about Rudy, but that wasn’t drama because Rudy was in no position to make demands with 2 years left on his contract. He agreed and that is why he wasn’t 100% sure it was about Rudy either. Later that day Barrett asked Brian Smith who he thought it was about, and referred to my call from earlier in the day because he still wasn’t sure it was about Rudy. So your idea that Mike knew all along it was about Rudy doesn’t fit what he said on Day 1. He thought it was very likely about Rudy (as did my 95% guess), but we were all having fun looking for whatever the other 5% possibility might be.
Mike Rice came up with the idea on Courtside later in the day that it was about Bayless. Now that would have caused some actual drama and seemed like a better fit to Quick’s claim. I went back and forth between Bayless and Rudy on Day 2. It always seems impossible that a Mike Rice prediction could come true, but I thought he might have finally got one right. Alas, … never agree with Rice, now that’s something you can bank on.
On your other point, from what I recall it was Wheels that first said the CP3 trade proposal included Batum and that the Blazers had originally turned it down, then changed their minds. That was when the story initially broke the first day. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt for sources to say now (after the deal is dead) that Batum wasn’t in the deal to make sure Batum doesn’t come back upset from thinking the Blazers would have traded him. But I have no way of knowing who is right, and don’t much care now. I suspect Cho has moved on and is probably targeting another PG, unless New Orleans comes back and asks him for a new bid for Paul.

If you want to post something to stir the pot, no one's stopping you
but then don’t turnaround and mock Quick for doing the same thing, and then expect to skate
I care that Batum wasn’t included in the original trade rumor, because I think he should be a keeper. It’s good to hear (from Barrett, at least) that the Blazer’s souting department feels the same way
When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
Yeah, if I hadn't posted about Quick's promise of a "Drama" no one else would have.
Anyway, I’m glad Barrett was able to cheer you up.

I wouldn't count on that
“the drama” was loud enough to get a mention, if only in passing on another thread
I completely understand that Bedgers want to speculate, but I hope that Quick has been relegated back to his former level of believablilty, as far as predicting imminent Blazer transactions is concerned. I was beginning to wonder after everyone jumped aboard his “CP3” rumor before the draft, but I guess the bigger the player’s name, the more folks want to believe that the messenger has finally got one right

Is this now a Quick vs Smith THROWDOWN?
wake me in 2011
Getting a trade for Rudy is going to be tough because he is strictly a shooter even though in his mind he thinks that he can generate offense for teammates.
What players on the Knicks, Bulls, and Celtics would they trade for a guy who does not play defense and when he’s jumper is not falling he mopes aroung and is always pointing his finger at other (Nate McMillan) people instead of looking in the mirror.
I think that the Blazers are going to package Bayless in a deal with Rudy because Bayless is finished in Portland. I really want to see what Elliot Williams can do on the court. Mills has said that the only way he comes to Portland is for a guaranteed contract. I love Mills but there is no way in hell that is going to happen.

Patty can follow Rudy right on out of town
man, I hope Cho never wastes draft choices on non-defensive players like these in the future
Just say no to Paul on draft day, Rich. Your roster will be better off for it
When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
the problem usually isn't the pick - it's the expectations that go along with
for a first round pick to still be in the NBA 3 years after the draft is a statistical rarity. It’s worse for 2nd rounders.
No matter how much you second guess the pick – anything late first round/second round is mostly a roll of the dice. What’s really interesting is that essentially – none of Pritchard’s picks failed to meet probabilities associated with draft position (assuming Oden develops into a star).

the importance is the kind of player
were Rudy and Patty ever going to be contributers to a championship-caliber roster in a system like Nate McMillian’s? Very unlikely. So…don’t waste a draft choice on them
The Spurs know how to draft and acquire system players (RJeff being an exception…) Pritchard was supposed to emulate the SA model. I’m hoping Cho will be an improvement

Is this even true? I just scanned over 2000-2005 drafts and theres 20-25 who didn’t last beyond 3 seasons. Which is somewhere around 5%. Maybe I just picked a bad set of years

I wonder if Rudy really does whine this much
or if the spanish media is just getting a ton of attention for writing all of this up
by collectiveshane on Jul 28, 2010 10:02 PM PDT reply actions
My standard answer is
If you are being misrepresented by your agent or the media, it’s your job to clarify things. If that means calling the media outlet and saying, “if you keep printing false information about me, I’ll never give you another interview.” If the agent is constantly misrepresenting you (KP as well), then you should fire them. I don’t think either of these things are true in Rudy’s case. The fact that whatever he is “rumored” to be whining about usually comes to pass, I’m going with “really does whine that much.”
Sheesh, you’d think these guys are politicians with all the plausible deniability.
That's what I'm saying
Either you agree with what they’re saying about you but too afraid to say it yourself, or you disagree with it and emphatically set the record straight.
the Spanish have a tendency to whine
I lived among them for four years – it’s not one of their finer characteristics…

They’re fantastic cooks, architects (looking at you, Gaudi)… Did I mention the food? Yeah, I mentioned the food… Um…
Sorry, I didn’t live there, but my three weeks in Spain were marked by amazing scenery, cuisine and architecture, but marred by awful treatment by the locals. They were far and away the most inhospitable people of any country I’ve ever visited. Apart from the northernmost part of Basque country (San Sebastian), the Spaniards I met were unforgivably rude and completely full of themselves. I even made the effort to dust off my high school Spanish, study some phrase books, familiarize myself with maps, and generally did my best to avoid being an ignorant, needy tourist. All the same, cold shoulders all around.
Too bad for them, because I loved their country and will return, whether they like it or not. The difference is next time, I won’t be making an effort. Suck it, Spain—you can’t get rid of me that easy.

Sunday? Really?
Cho’s never heard of a telephone?
I did not realize it was so difficult to ask Nate over the phone “here’s what I can get,which do you want?”
I’d love to see the expression on the other GM’s face when Cho told him,“Well,sounds like we have a deal,but would you mind waiting 5 days til I can run it by my Coach.”
Yeah, that sounds like a smokescreen. I suspect most trade proposals have a much shorter shelf life than that.

All my fears regarding Cho have now been confirmed
How long does he need to crunch the numbers before he takes action? I can’t help but think he’s in his office wringing his hands; afraid that his first deal will make it look like another team took advantage of him.
He is over analyzing or he’s scared to make a move. Either way, his inaction is detrimental to the organization and the future of the team.
Maybe he needs a buddy to crunch the numbers for him!
I hear Tom Penn is available.
Patience Tom
He has a strong resume. Give the guy a chance. Wait til he screws up to get upset with him. He is weighing his options to make sure he gets the best deal for the team, not for his image (although that is a factor with any first time GM). I don’t understand what the rush is.
welcome to the tominhawaii trap
if Cho had done the opposite and made a splashy trade on his first day of work – tominhawaii would have cried that his worst fears were realized (“Cho is just another insecure newbie GM needing to make a trade – any trade – just to show everyone who’s in control!!!”)

I have read on several of the Bulls websites and it appears that Chicago is offering Taj Gibson for Rudy "the crying game" Fernandez.
If this is indeed true the Blazers should hurry up and accept before the Bulls realize that they are getting the short end of the stick.
