Hollinger answers Mixums question!

[MIXUM]

Rudy (Seattle) .... had to use a fake city!

Do you think the Blazers get the 8th seed in the west?
John Hollinger (2:09 PM)

I think they'll get in, but it could be as high as No. 6 depending on what happens at trade deadline. If you look at possibility of Denver taking a big dive and Utah cutting $$, it's still possible Blazers, Griz and Rockets could be final three. Of course, Portland might trim its hopes with a trade for assets too.

Was that really you?

If the Blazers trade Miller they will need a PG in return so who do you think are realistic options out there ? The option i like and it would be a downgrade is Luke Ridnour. The team needs a PG who can shoot and distribute the ball.
John Hollinger (2:12 PM)

But do you want to pay Ridnour for three years after this one? Interesting name, I'll give you that. The one I think is the most likely, though, is Devin Harris. The issue, however, is that I don't think the Nets want Miller, so it would have to be a three-way.

 

[MIXUM]

kinda crazy though he expects utah and denver out of race.

 

[Natebishop3]

Luke Ridnour? Gross.

How about Fernandez and Miller for Ridnour and Brewer?
John Hollinger (2:14 PM)

I think Blazers would want something more like Tolliver and Ridnour, and no Rudy in the deal, but I can't see the Wolves' need for Miller. Again, looking at a three-way.

WTF is the obsession with Ridnour from people? How does he fit our timeline? How would he be an upgrade over Miller? Good god...

He's white and a point guard so that makes him the next John Stockton.

He's been in the league for like eight years.... if he's the next John Stockton, then Jerry Stackhouse is the next Michael Jordan.

Guess I am not allowed to post about the subject of this thread. So let me self-edit my prior post and ask another question. Impressive... [remainder edited]. New question: Why did you post a fake city?

 

[MIXUM]

i totally agree with you. why the fuck would we want minnys trash over miller???????????

i think only way we trade miller is if we get harris.

Andre Miller (Portland)

Devin Harris!?! I'M better than Devin Harris! I'll also play the next 5 years without missing a game - Devin Harris can't say that!
John Hollinger (2:23 PM)

You're more durable, yes ... but you're also half a decade older. That's a concern. That's why I think the Blazers get proactive and try to move Miller now.

I do believe more white players would make us a better team.

Huh? Prior post?

I agree... that's why we haven't won a championship. We don't have enough white guys.

You are making so much money for Denny that he removed these in order to stay in a lower tax bracket!

You're out of your Vulcan mind! I distinctly remember a post from HCP saying "It's all downhill from here" which is no longer present.

No they were. I'm just keeping the thread on track.

ANOTHER MIXUM QUESTION ANSWERED!

Bruno (Fort Worth)

Who is on the blazers radar other then Devin Harris?
John Hollinger (2:34 PM)

It'd be a much lower-level move, but I think they may like Jeff Teague. Portland's assistant GM was in Atlanta when they drafted him.
