Oden - knee, out for season? Batum - shoulder surgery Outlaw - broken foot Mills- - broken foot Pendergraph -hip surgery Fernandez - MRI on back, Monday Blazers's lineup of healthy players as of now: Blake, Miller Roy, Bayless Webster, Cunningham Aldridge, Howard Przybilla Blake, Miller Roy, Bayless Battier, Webster, Cunningham Aldridge, Howard, (Cunningham) Przybilla, (Aldridge), Dorsey
No way does Portland gut their entire roster by giving up 3 rotational players for Battier. Most Portland fans are reluctant to even give Rudy for Battier straight up, so why would the give up a good young player in Batum and a decent bench player in Outlaw? Plus, they're obviously not looking to make championship push this year anymore since Oden is out. Unfortunately for us, this means Portland is no longer a viable trade partner for us anymore since they probably don't want Battier anymore.

This is one of the more bizarre trades i've ever seen/heard of. Do you really expect the organization to trade many core players who actually play hard night in and night out, have chemistry and a winning record (11-9 w/out the 2 leading scorers) for those players which haven`t even reached playoffs since 05/06 season?. Not only that, you're just rebuilding around yao (who is out for the season casually) and giving all the best players for average players, except granger. NO WAY.
As much as I would love to land Troy Murphy....I dont think you are going about it the right way. Far too complicated of a trade you made here. Simplify it.
Will do. Troy Murphy/Foster's contracts end in 2011, which means we can get another superstar (Tony Parker). We're going to have to sign Luis to 30 mill this year, and since we're got our own STAT (Landry), we don't need to sign him. Give Yao and Granger a year to heal from their injuries and we might even be able to get a top 5 pick this year (John Wall) 2012-2013 PF - Landry SF - Ariza C - Yao SG - Granger PG - Tony Parker/John Wall
If I had a dime for every single time i've seen you propose a McGrady-for-Dunleavy trade i'd be a very rich man.
This shaky, injury-ridden team would still mop the floor with the Chargers if they played head-to-head right now. My best advice to you, a Chargers fan, is to keep quiet until your team actually accomplishes something. Talking smack on a team that you haven't beaten since 2006 generally isn't a good idea if you expect to be taken seriously. Love, baller
Just joking around bro, nothing bad in some good ol' smack talk. Try to avoid moes though, he must be walking around with his chin high.
Sources close to the team have told me the Rockets and Knicks have been working diligently on a TMAC deal recenlty and one of the Rockets head guys is in New York right now.... Something may be going down soon....

You forgot about patty mills also. There are very few trade proposals for the rockets that doesn't involve patty mills for some reason. The best trade proposal to me was by larsv8(the battier lover) :grin: . The only problem is it came before oden went down again and now its dead as a doorknob.
how about tmac for deng-hinrich. chicago is sucking right now and they might want to move those 2 long contracts for an expiring contract to go at a free agent in 2010. deng will help us tremendously as he is a very good scorer, rebounder, and defender.
where did u get this? and it better not be for Z (who's not playing much at all). what can we possibly get from cleveland?
