    ya'll are crazy to even entertain the idea that this would happen. There is no way that the blazers would give up rasheed. Especially for walt, shandon and mo taylor. It would be great if we could get him, but the price would be alot higher than that.

    That would be strange to be Stacy Augmon and have been traded to the Rockets twice and given your release twice. He badmouthed Houston the last time.

    wat about a sign and trade

    to blazers:
    Mo Taylor
    Walt Williams
    Shandon Anderson

    to rockets:
    Rasheed Wallace
    Stacey Augmon

    stacey is just a throw in. and i've heard that the blazers might want to get rid of this hothead, especially since they have kemp, davis, and then they drafted Zach Randolph.

    What is the difference between Kelvin Cato and Macey Gray??

    Macey has bigger hair

    Rasheed is just as responsible for the Blazers going nowhere in the playoffs as he was for getting them there. No thanks tpo that cancer. But I would love to have Augmon on the Rockets....even if it's just for five minutes.

    Alright, as a Rasheed WAllace fan, I would like to say this: It'll never happen unless we are willing to give up francis and/or Griffin. Wallace isn't going anywhere, he's the one person keeping that team in the playoffs. Mo Cheeks said that hed be out of his mind to trade Sheed or Quitten. I'd have to agree with him

    Drew_Le, I would love to have Wallace on our roster. I brought that idea up about 2 months ago and got mixed reactions. But you cannot deny the fact that the guy has major talent and doesn't demand the ball until crunch time. May I also add that he does deliver in crunch time (I know because I was at the game in Compaq when he finished us off in the fourth quarter this year).

    we already have our version of stacey augmon!

    see: Andersn, Shandn

    then again, at least everyone knows the TMV of a stacey augmon. shandn seems to have some people fooled!

    Well seeing as how he was a Rocket for all of five minutes a very short two years ago .... naw you can keep him

    The reason we got Walt in the first place was that there was no room for him in Blazerville, and they saw early what we saw late.

    Rasheed is a very talented guy. No question. But he is also a hot head, with a maturity level that is beneath any threshold I would tolerate. Hot headed, intense, and a agressiveness mixed with an immature self focus is a cancer on a young team.

    Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bad enough that refs think Steve owes them one technical per game!

    But put Cato in there instead of Mo and I might consider it....as long as we had a trade to another team to dump Wallace for a center locked in.

    No idea what we'd do with Augmon though *shrug*

    sure he's a headcase, but he's a model citizen. he doesn't get charged with rape or anything, he just has lots of technicals....but wait, so does STEVE FRANCIS

    Getting a tech for slapping a backboard is a little different from getting a tech from screaming at the ref.

    Also, Francis had half the techs Wallace did.
