    The Blazers have a team option on Blake for next season. This could prompt them into action (trade) rather than wait and see with Bayless... There were rumors of Pritchard having interest in Kirk Hinrich last season and Steve Nash this season.

    The good news: Blake's value is lowered

    The bad news: Blazers will be even more aggressive to try and upgrade the point.

    Exactly, although I think Pritchard already believed a new starting PG was their biggest offseason need. I like Blake, but he doesn't cut it as a starting PG. Last season was probably his career season that will never be duplicated.

    Bayless rotting on the bench, while they are starting Blake.

    I swear Portland is r****ded, so much talent but never satisfied.
