I'm not a sports fan but I think many in these parts are. I'm just curious why nobody is talking bout this yet? This was a good deal right?

probably cause it was so obvious, plus they announced who they were drafting earlier in the day. Good deal? I think, yes. Always draft the best player, NOT what you need. The Blazers have made that mistake in the past, probably more than once!

Uh...Michael Jordan comes to mind!

Uhh, yah, that would be one....

Like I said I quit following these losers a while back. Maybe worthy of a fresh look now that they have cleaned house of most of the riff-raff!

They need to do some more horse trading with Miles. After that the Blazers should have a clean slate to work with.

Oden will get caught doing lines of Coke off some underage hooker in a cheap hotel. This is the failblazers ya know, I think the team is cursed.

Geez Buns,your last post was offensive, crude, out of line and blasphemous.
Everyone knows a Blazer would NEVER stay in a cheap hotel! Sheesh!

Darius Miles is about as untradeable as you can get. He has some $60 million left on his deal I believe, he's coming off of microfracture knee surgery, has no desire to play, has run afoul of the law many times ... yeah, I see suitors lining up for his services!
Trading Zach was a step in the right direction. They save a ton off the cap even if they keep Francis (which chances are, his contract gets bought out) and they get a good solid backup for Oden and Aldridge in Channing Frye.
I take my hat off to Kevin Pritchard. Everything he has touched the last 12 months has turned to gold.
