He'd be a great 2nd round pick. I'd target him with the #39 pick.
Commented on Jackie Carmichael as a second round pick... on May 18 2013, 1:00p
Agreed. And O'Bannon was a great college player and better athlete than Muhammad.

Commented on How Important Is LaMarcus Aldridge to the Blazers Future? on May 17 2013, 1:23p
I think Evans is a better fit than Redick, and he has more potential to be a difference-making player

I agree. The pick will be traded. If the team is committed to trying to contend while Aldridge is at his peak......

Irving.

Matthews and Leonard or the #10 pick for a maxed-out Tyreke ?
Commented on Is Tyreke worth the Max? on May 11 2013, 5:05p - 1 reply
Yeah, he may be playing himself out of a richer contact with his playoff performance.
Commented on Is Tyreke worth the Max? on May 11 2013, 4:47p - 1 reply
I think it would be very tough to acquire Gortat and sign Evans.

I think Lawson-Iguodola is the best backcourt presently.

No. I don't care for his demeanor and he isn't very good.
Commented on Could Kendrick Perkins be the Blazer's COTF? on May 8 2013, 6:07p
Yeah, I don't think Shabazz is a great athlete. He looks average at best, to me.

I don't think the team will be able to do better than Asik. I think he is ideal next to Aldridge.
Commented on Blazer's Edge Mailbag: Improving Meyers, Defense, Trading the Core, Omer Asik on May 8 2013, 11:59a
DeAndre dunks and blocks shots, and he rebounds at an OK rate. But he hasn't impressed me at all.

I'll pass too. I like LA, and do not care for Howard or Smith.
Commented on Getting Dwight and then Trading LMA on May 8 2013, 1:10a - 1 reply
I don't think he is anything like Evans.

Hey, me too, I'm sitting in the Palouse Mall Starbucks working on my thesis.

I think that is a lot to give up for Jordan. He has some huge flaws in his game.
Commented on Blazer's Edge Mailbag: Lillard vs. Roy, Centers, Sacramento and Seattle on May 6 2013, 1:16p - 3 replies
Trade the pick for an established center. Sign a free-agent perimeter player.
Commented on Dieng it or Not? on May 4 2013, 5:05p - 1 reply
Gortat, Jordan, McGee, and Asik all seem like possibilities.
Commented on Who is Olshey's trade target? on May 4 2013, 5:01p
He is pretty horrible, so I'd say no.
Commented on Jason Collins as a Blazer? on May 4 2013, 4:57p
15.2 pts, 8 rebs, 3.3 blks.
Commented on JaVale McGee - again, really? on May 4 2013, 4:49p
You must be responding to the original post, because the scenario described by lumberjak
Commented on Matthews for Asik? on May 4 2013, 3:24p
I'd take Allen.

Right, that's why I said, "obviously that won't happen"

He'll be 30 next January, and he just posted his worst statistical season since his second year.
Commented on Iguodala opting out, will become UFA on May 3 2013, 8:22p - 1 reply
Yep, I was pretty disappointed in Freeland, but it never really seemed like he had a chance to prove himself.
Commented on Taking Stock: The Rest of the Portland Trail Blazers Roster on May 3 2013, 2:26p
Good, he seemed like an under-qualified over-achiever.
Commented on Blazers Assistant Coach Kaleb Canales Leaves Blazers For Mavericks on May 3 2013, 2:18p
The Blazers should jump on an opportunity to bring in Asik, but I don't think Houston would be interested in Matthews' contract....
Commented on Matthews for Asik? on May 2 2013, 4:15p
I think what the team needs is a "lane defender" at center rather than a "rim protector"
Commented on JaVale McGee - again, really? on May 1 2013, 6:27p
Not bad. The second unit would be pretty weak defensively, though.
Commented on Off Season Scenarios & Mike Dunleavy on Apr 30 2013, 9:04p
As someone above already suggested, I think O'Neal would make a fine 4th big.
Commented on Haynes: UFA C Jermaine O'Neal Is "Very Open" To Signing With Blazers on Apr 30 2013, 8:18p
I don't think he singled out Portland. He responded to questions from a reporter who covers the Blazers.
Commented on Haynes: UFA C Jermaine O'Neal Is "Very Open" To Signing With Blazers on Apr 30 2013, 8:06p
Crawford did put up the worst 3FG% of his career and his worst overall FG% since his rookie season while he was with Portland.

I suspect Nate's inability to get better deals is related to his attitude.

Good article. Thanks for the link.
Commented on Lowe: Wesley Matthews is a "New Age Shane Battier" on Apr 30 2013, 1:57p
Yes. Get Tyreke.
Commented on Blazer's Edge Mailbag: Lee vs. Aldridge, Lillard's Defense, Bench, and Draft Picks on Apr 30 2013, 12:55p
I think it is too soon to call Lillard the team MVP. For now, that's Aldridge.
Commented on Lillard + All Star + Poll on Apr 29 2013, 6:08p
I wonder how much he has left in the tank?

Batum's tendency to hunt assists is annoying.
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 7:44p
Good point. The degree of difficulty on so many of our jumpshots was pretty high.
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 1:42p
Batum>Green.
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 1:34p - 1 reply
Yeah, I think he'll be a 16, 6,3 guy for his career, but I'd be surprised if he didn't average 17-19 pts for a couple of seasons.
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 1:32p - 1 reply
If Batum would have maintained his 2011-2012 scoring rate this season (which he did for the first 40 games or so)...

It is odd to hand the MIP award to a guy who improved his PER by only 0.3
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 1:26p
Yeah, all of those guys had a better handle than Nic. This really holds him back.
Commented on Taking Stock: Will Nicolas Batum Ever Be a Star? on Apr 26 2013, 1:22p
I definitely see 18 pts in his future. Eight boards will be tough. That'd make him just about the best rebounding SF in the league.

I don't recall Carmelo being in MVP discussions during his previous 11 seasons.

His per-minute rebounding and block numbers are pretty good.
Commented on Should we go for Cole Aldrich? on Apr 25 2013, 5:14p - 1 reply
I don't think he is a bad rebounder (10/36 min for his career), though he could be better with his physical gifts.
Commented on New Thoughts on McGee on Apr 25 2013, 4:20p
I don't think they have given him the QO.
Commented on New Thoughts on McGee on Apr 25 2013, 4:18p
Lillard would be third if the draft were held tomorrow. Beal has not shown enough.

Great job. This is a lot better than the NBA-released Lillard highlight package.

What measures do you use to decide whether a guy is "guaranteed" to be all-star level?

Really? You'd move Aldridge for Anthony or George?
