    I sincerely doubt it's Brandon Roy demanding anything. He has plenty of talent around him and they are primed for a run this year. If it's not Rudy, then maybe Oden.

    From my standpoint, Oden isn't that big a deal either because nobody expects much out of him anymore and they have Marcus Camby. To most people, I guess Oden would be a big deal.

    I still think it might be Rudy because the Blazers have never publicly acknowledged anything involving him.

    the audio states that its not a signing but a "continuing drama" where someone will make "demands". If my memory serves me correctly... the only person making any headlines as of late is Rudy Fernandez. If I had to put money on it, I'd bet it involved him.

    Ummm, Miller has been involved in demands before. I think there is obviously problems between Miller and Roy. Roy may be demanding they get rid of him.

    It's gonna be a big man, ethier Oden or Alridge; I'm not sure who would take Oden though. Or they going to acquire a point guard.

    That would be smart, they could insert Rudy in Roy's place, and CP3 would be a huge upgrade.

    They would be a better team overall with CP3 and Rudy....than with Miller and Roy.

    I'd go with the superstar wing player who also possesses playmaking skills in addition to 6 more inches in height.

    I've always believed that an elite wing player trumps the typical elite PG.

    I actually started a thread on the subject: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=185946

    My feeling is that people generally overrate the importance of the PG position, even in today's NBA.

    It is a matter of fit, IMO.

    Both Miller and Roy require the ball to be successful, they really don't mesh.

    Whereas CP3 and Rudy fit like a glove, Rudy off the ball and CP3 on it.

    I think the CP3/Rudy tandem is better teamwise than the Miller/Roy fit.

    IF you rate them from 1-10....say.

    Roy = 9
    Miller = 7

    Rudy = 7
    CP3 = 10

    And is a better chemical match.

    For those saying it's about rudy, y'all do realize he's been an issue for a while now, right? I would imagine the writer is refering to something new, otherwise he's making a big deal out of something everyone already knows.

    Something is up with Oden. I can sense it. No news on his rehab. Everything has been dead calm. His twitter account is closed. His blog hasn't been updated since October last year.

    His twitter account was closed down after someone released nude pics of him.

    He doesn't have another one that is public. Nothing would surprise me here.

    If Aldridge is on the block, I think we would have heard something by now.

    Chris Bosh Light, I would love him on our team. We need to start incorporating some Longhorns into our roster.
