Chris Johnson called up from Dleague by Blazers?

[julius]

I think it's more than coincidence that this guy and Randolph are both from LSU. We've been hearing all these bad things about how Randolph isn't motivated, or that he has been a problem. Why wouldn't it make sense to bring in a guy that he played with in college? I don't know if they're friends or just acquaintances, but the timing sure seems strange.

I heard that Hakeem Olajuwon is buying a house in Lake Oswego, because the team traded for, er...hired Hakeem to help LaMarcus.

I wish.

Hmm... I guess you could be right, but I would be surprised if Johnson is considered by many to be the same level of a prospect as Randolph.

Ed O.

Why do we want a total washout?

This just looks like The Choad is paper-shuffling to look busy. Chris Johnson is not who we need.

Who we need is Chris Angel.

Well at least Chris johnson has had several days of practice to set some plays with him at the practice facility. Perhaps we will see some action of him come Tuesday when they rest LA for a few minutes against the Spurs?

Or maybe our starting Center is injured, our b/u Center is working his way back from an injury (and only good for about 20-25 minutes/game) and Chris Johnson was the best prospect floating around in the D League at that position? Nah, that doesn't make any sense.

Nope. Doesn't make any sense at all. See what I did there? I can do sarcasm too!!

Now if we DO end up trading for Randolph, and CJ gets a contract for the rest of the season instead of 10 days . . .
