    By the way... Darius went to Boston for a workout with the Celtics. I guess if his head and bodies are OK, there is a chance of him being signed.

    You forgot to add...tank the season, draft the best PF ever, win a championship that year, brainwash him (and all of his teammates) into taking less than what he's worth. Also, get unbelievably lucky on drafting foreign born players.

    once is luck....doing things the same way, successfully, for a decade plus, is more than just luck. Getting the first pick in the draft is luck...but then, the Rockets have been lucky, too, and don't have 4 championships to show for it.

    point being, the Blazers haven't even made the playoffs yet with their current squad. they haven't done anything yet, so let's not canonize their owner quite yet either.

    I hope Miles can make a squad, just so that it screws the blazers.

    I still hate them for stealing Brandon Roy.
