    actually the biggest difference is:

    One will be able to help next year while the other won't be able to for another 2-3 years.

    Yes, let's get rid of a proven Landry because we just drafted a power forward..

    I'm not happy. Arthur looks like a bust.

    The Blazers paid $3 million for the pick. That's a ton of money for an owner like Les Alexander. Unless they were targeting someone they felt strongly about a player (ala Carl Landry)

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Carl Landry converting to SF? I read earlier that he was praticing his three-point shooting to increase his range, and possibly go over to SF. It will make more sense, taking a PF if its true.

    You miss the bigger picture, he might be a bust be we have Scola AND Landry and now we're probably getting CDR too. It was worth the risk.

    I am assuming that prtland is drafting for us. Either the 33 or 36th picks

    I seriously doubt they would draft a fifth SF/PF.. i'm guessing we get the 36th pick.

    With the 33rd pick in the draft, Portland selects,
    Joey Dorsey, Power Forward, Memphis

    Uh

    I don't think the trade actually went down. I don't see it anywhere else except for that DraftExpress website.
