    Blazers offering Steve Blake, Travis Outlaw and likely cash to Clippers for Marcus Camby, league source tells Y! Sports.

    offer Blake to Clippers for Camby

    By Adrian Wojnarowski, Yahoo! Sports
    53 minutes ago



    More From Adrian WojnarowskiT'wolves could make bid for Thomas Feb 15, 2010 Cavs remain leaders to land Stoudemire Feb 15, 2010 This time, Blake has been offered with Travis Outlaw(notes) to the Los Angeles Clippers for center Marcus Camby(notes), a league source told Yahoo! Sports.


    It’s also believed that the Blazers will add cash to the bid. All three players have expiring contracts, so it would likely take an additional ingredient – cash and or a second-round draft pick – to convince the Clippers to give up Camby for this package.

    Camby, 35, is averaging 7.7 points and 12.1 rebounds for the Clippers.

    Outlaw has been out since the preseason with a broken foot, and has just been cleared to return to practice. He could be ready to return to games within seven to 10 days. Some in the league believe that GM Kevin Pritchard wants to clear the way for his first-round draft pick, Jerryd Bayless(notes), to get more time in the backcourt with Andre Miller(notes), and that’s part of the reason for shopping Blake.

    The Blazers have been searching for some inside help to deflect the blow of losing centers Greg Oden(notes) and Joel Przybilla(notes) to knee injuries.


    The Clippers have been trying to attach guard Sebastian Telfair(notes) to any deal with Camby, but it’s highly improbable that Portland would take back Telfair, who started his career with the Blazers.

    Well the Blazers do need some size and height since their bigs are out. Camby would give them size, height, and rebounding.

    Screw Portland. The only reason this trade would make sense for the Clippers is as a favor to Camby since it does nothing for them long term. A second round pick-big whoop. When did Portland get so stingy with their first round picks. We all know they're going to buy a dozen on draft night with Paul Allen's money...

    why tha hell would they give up their best bench player ..? are they nuts ??
    just wait untill the season is over and evaluate Oden and his condition and go from their, I don't understand why would they give up Outlaw..I think it's bad trade..

    i hate this deal for the Clippers, but why would this be a bad deal for the Blazers? Portland gets an elite center for the rest of the season and post season (i don't care if Camby's old, so was Deke and he produced despite his age) while giving up two players that they weren't likely to resign anyway. Portland should love this trade...

    Outlaw has practically missed the entire season and who knows how he'll look when he comes back...

    Blazers have been trying to trade Outlaw for the last few seasons.

    Wow. I guess they'll probably pass on Andersen/Bayless.

    If you need rebounding pick up DeAndre Jordan

    As long as Camby doesn't get hurt like the rest of their centers this year. Bad stuff in the water there right now.
