What do the PG drafts mean?

There were some interesting teams selecting point guards in the 1st round.

T-wolves- who can figure out Rubio and Flynn back to back? Something must be up with that- can't see them going forward with that combo and Telfair on the roster. someone has to move.

Even more interesting I found in relation to possible Blazer point guard possibilities-

Sixers taking Jrue Holiday- Miller must be figured expendable.

Jazz taking Eric Maynor- does this mean Deron Williams might be available?

Hornets taking Darren Collison- CP3 in a salary dump? I wonder why these teams with high level point guards and obvious needs elsewhere would spend such high draft picks on more point guards.

Also the Nets- in the VC trade, taking back Alston (another PG) and Courtney Lee (is he a combo or a point?). Quite a log jam with Devin Harris there.

Bottom line- lots of possibilities out there. Go get em KP.

Trade "Wheels"??

I'm not huge fan of Brian Wheeler. He is a bit too much of a "Homer" for my taste. If I hear one more "Boo-Shaka-Laka" I am going to hurl.

I would not bring it up, except in an interview last month on the radio, Kevin Calabro from the Sonics said he had no interest in going to OKC. Kevin Calabro is a pro and respected through out the league. I think it would be a huge upgrade.

Baron, Baron, Baron!!!!

Now that Rudy is onboard, he will fill the 2nd unit scorer role. That makes Travis expendable. His stock will never be higher. Baron wants out at GS. Blazers need to thin the roster, big time.

Travis, Pryz, and #13 will get Baron or any other top-flite point guard on the market.

Why don't people talk about Pryz for trade bait? GS and many others need big man shoes. Deal closer.

Starters:

Oden, Aldridge, Webster (yes!), Roy, Baron.

2nd unit

Frye, McRoberts, Jones, Rudy, Blake.
