I have read both that he's not hurt / coaches decision or he has an injured hip.

Any official word?
 
He played in the second half i think stotts just found a match up he liked?

“I got fouled and fell pretty hard on it,” Harkless said post game. “The next day when I woke up it hurt really bad. I’m trying to get it better now.”

As for how Harkless felt in Game 3, he wasn’t 100 percent and commended the coaches for making “the right call” by limiting his minutes.

“I think it’s limiting me,” Harkless said. “I felt really slow out there today. The coaches saw that, they took me out, which I think was the right decision. Selfishly I would have liked to play. I am happy for our team, that was huge and I think that was big for myself, too.”

I thought for a while that the Blazers pulled Harkless just because he was playing poorly and that Henderson gave them a little more offensive playmaking. I was wrong. It ended up working and could very well be the recipe going forward, but it’s clear that Harkless isn’t 100 percent and Stotts also said that he thought playing Henderson or Crabbe in that spot “gave them the best chance.” So for the Blazers, Harkless is the main injury to keep track of.

Harkless played seven minutes in Game 3 and played sparingly in the second half after getting pulled early in the first quarter.
 
I knew something was weird. Even if you think he was being unguarded due to lack of respect, he did hit 1-2 from 3 and had 2 steals. He's the guy we've had guarding the best player on opposing teams (Chris Paul, now Thompson).

We did see the value of Hendo to this team. I really hope we re-sign him.

The Wizards, Pistons, Lakers, Mavs and Jazz among teams expressing interest in Blazers restricted free agent forward Moe Harkless, a source said.

All these FA's re-signing. No way Harkless leaves.....right?
 
If the Blazers do end up signing Parsons, I'm not sure they're going to want to match a big offer for a guy who plays the same position, especially when Aminu, Crabbe and their draft pick all can play that spot.

Nice strawman though.

But, but, all these player re-signing and chicken little, and LOL
 
I don't think any of the teams wanting Harkless (Pistons, Wizards, Bulls, Lakers and Mavericks) have an extra center they could give us in a sign and trade? But could a third team be involved?
