we have a season folks
The NBA has a season finally! After 15 hours of negotiations, they are scheduling a conference meeting now! Yessssssssssssir! I am so happy now that I think I will stay up and start preparing some posts on Roy and Oden:) Wow, we may actually be seeing these guys for the last time in a Blazer jersey... Wes Matthews will get a shot to show off being 100% and that goes for the rest of the injured players... Nolan and Felton will get there first ovations as Blazers in the Rose Garden!
Man, I can't believe this just happened... WOW!

Nba deadline trade review: Wallace and more...
A decent breakdown of some of the key trades made at the deadline.
Soup De SOUL
Corey Brewer just got bought out. He would be a really nice fit for Portland. Defensive threat that needs more time to develop shooting and ball skills. A ball hunter to help solidify the bench defense. He can score, but should be looked at as a solid defender with upside. With two spots open, he would be a great addition to a playoff bound team looking to add depth on the bench. With Mike Bibby going to Miami probably, Troy Murphy going to a eastern conference team, and TJ Ford not being much of an upgrade over Portland's reserve PG's. I would like to see the Blazers go for another defender in Brewer, and a big in Earl Barron, Tiny Gallon, Antoine Walker, Steven Hill.
This pic is hilarious...
Seriously, you gotta love pics from the past! Looks like Melo' is straight outta "Don't be a menace to south central while drinking you're juice in the hood". Dre' is like "Yup, that's waz up".

Shimmy Shake update
Game 4 update: Antoine Walker plays 33 min - 11/20 fg - 2/6 3pt - 1/3 ft - 8rbs - 1 ast - 1 stl - 1to - 25pts
He and Luke Babbitt are the star's of this team. The crowd was loving Toine's game. Did I mention he was playing away? Oops! Tiny Gallon of the Maine team, was impressive. 6 10' 290lbs of beastiness! He can shoot the long ball too! He was trying to take it to Walker all game. He faired well against the vet. But the veteran's tricks allowed him a better game offensively, even though they lost. Antoine is gonna get a contract after the new year. His experience and good play ensure it in my opinion. Why not look to add him? Also, what do we know about Tiny Gallon. He really is a beast!
105 players now available!
Here's the list of players eligible for trade.
Antoine Walker (Game 4 Update)))))

Game 3 update: Antoine Walker plays 24 minutes and has 6pts., 8rbs., 1ast., 1to., 1blk..
What is worth noting, is he had a +10, which was the highest on the team. He did not start the game but was the most productive player in terms of the +- system. Also, he had 4 offensive rebounds which I really like to see. His 8 shot attempts were the lowest of the season, and the Stampede lost the game by 5. Makes you wonder if he would have taken his 11 shots a game avg., could that have been the difference in this game? Now, this being the farm league for these guys, and the fact it has only been 3 games for Antoine. I realize he is not burning a hole in the stat sheets, but he doesn't need to score 30. The Blazers need a balanced role player. He has so far managed this task! Show you can deliver as a team player and not just a dude that can shoot for the elusive 4 pointer!

I am looking to gather opinions on a potential addition of Antoine Walker?
Here's mine: He can give us that depth on the bench that is obviously needed. Also, Walker brings a ton of experience, as he is a former super-star(not my words), and NBA champion. I know his popularity is not high at this moment. Though, neither is his salary demand. I see a great talent, aside from the air ball free throw we saw on his debut. Walker brings what is lacking at the PF position. Portland desperately needs a true back-up PF presence. He also spreads the floor with his ability to shoot the long ball and deep mid range shot. Oh, he gives rebounding too! Really, I do not see any reason that the Blazers do not go after him. Luke is on the D league with him, so you know he is getting eyed by Blazer brass, if even unwanted. I mean he has to at least be as effective as Sean Marks, right? In my opinion, Antoine Walker would give immediate attention to a small market team. The revenue off of him would surely be more than what it would cost the organization to sign him. That is the bottom line in a business that has seen continual loss. Rich Cho is here to gain a financial hold on this slow-bleeding team. Walker, may be a shaded image of his old self, but it is a valid idea that they look at this former champion.
On a side note:
Now, two games into the league. Antoine Walker, and the Idaho Stampede find themselves 2-0. Some of those dimes he has been dishing out are to our dude, "Luuuuuuke".

Oden legacy
In my belief, it has been increasingly hard to keep following the Portland Trailblazers. The soured expectations of this team year after year have become more than difficult to defend. However, I struggle on!
