Blazers Retain Point Guard Patty Mills

going forward? Really?

I think Pendy will play more NBA games than Patty, so I think this is a bad move

one has no effect on the other. Pendy was in the last year of his contract and the Blazers did not have his bird rights. So, at the end of the season, the Blazers can sign him just the same or lose him just the same as if they had kept him.

I'm guessing this is the permanent inactive list for every game until Joel or Greg are healthy, if no one else gets hurt.

Williams
Przybilla
Oden

When Przy gets healthy, Oberto goes inactive.
When Greg is healthy, Mills goes inactive.

Or, does Williams start the season on the active list? I just don't see Nate doing that, though.

Portland may be more willing to sign Pendy if he doesn't pout about this, which he won't, and if the Blazers allow him access to their trainers and facilities.

I love Mills. He will be good someday. He is better than Bayless. Cho knows!
