    Wish it was Kaman. :(

    Oh well, at least Camby has always said he wants to play here.

    Camby is the second coming of Mutombo + he said he would like to end his career where he lives.

    Glad it's at least a center, his rebounding numbers are okay this year. However, if this is it then I rather would've had Okafor!

    Portland was in it for a 2nd round pick. Camby is expiring as well.

    I looked at his stats, and he can still rebound and block shots. He averages 8.8 rebounds in only 22 minutes per game.

    He's the new Mutombo! Still a monster rebounder at his age with 22+ rebounding percentage. Should help the Rockets significantly this season.

    That's it? Blazers *really* want to miss the playoffs, it seems. Blatant tanking maneuver.
