MSP says "they have spoken to quick on who is being moved"

[MIXUM]

Do I believe Cho broke it down this simply to quick??? No but this is what Jason quick told the MSP


1. Rudy - possibly being moved. Quick didnt have much info on Rudy.

2. Pryzbilla - will not be a blazer after deadline.

3. Miller - will not be traded. that means no harris. depressing.

4. Camby - will noT be traded.

5. Armon Johnson - Cho is trying to move him for a signed ibaka jersey.

As usual quicks articles headline is misleading. He also is saying that they are looking for younger player in a joel trade.

 

[hasoos]

Man I was wondering if this was the silence before the storm after Cho announced moves will be made.

Pryzbilla has mentioned being traded back to Milwaukee to end his career there. I don't suppose there is any possibility we could pick up Larry Sanders for him? Sanders has a big upside and his game is defense based, yet he can score some.

If we could get anything for Rudy and his 36% shooting, it would be a miracle at this time, IMO.

"Miller will not be traded . . . "

Sounds like a smokescreen to me. Andre Miller has a lot of value--especially for a contending team that needs help at the point--and I wouldn't be surprised to see him moved.

 

[MIXUM]

i mean prybilla being dealt is the worst kept secret in nba. rudy getting traded is interesting as we would need a guy off bench but maybe that guy is roy?

also now we know why chris johnson and marks are here. meet your backup centers

Does he? Or is he a guy who when he was a free agent a while back that only the Blazers were interested in? It didn't seem to me that he had a lot of interest back then. I am not sure why that would change now.

Who would that be?

Boston? No.
Orlando? Doubt it with Jameer.
Miami? What do they have to give back?
Chicago? No
Lakers? No
Spurs? No
Thunder? No

What other teams are there that might contend?

Yea I had heard some rumors that the Hawks made some probes towards Steve Nash, so they may be looking at pursuing someething rather big in order to give their team a chance.

Hopefully we trade him to the Hornets because if what some say in here is true and he is the worst player in the NBA that means we'll end up with a lottery pick from them.

 

[Blazinaway]

LOL IMO you can't believe any of this stuff on who will or will not be traded. Cho is not going to tell Quick unless he wants to place disinformation into the market. It is of course fine forum fodder.

I think the idea of bringing in Miller would be to upgrade the back-up PG, and not replace a starter. Depth for a deep playoff run, but certainly not having Miller be some sort of primary player on the team.

OKC would make sense, actually. They are weak outside of Westbrook, and Miller doesn't need shots to be effective. He's actually much more effective when he doesn't have to shoot, IMO.

Westbrook actually makes most of his production from the SG position when they bring in Maynor to run the point. He could do the same with Miller.

blazing away only wants to hear eric maynor. hes the answer. stud.

gag

 

[BlazerBeliever]

When is the trade deadline?

 

[Mediocre Man]

So the fragrant one's BIG move is to deal Joel?

Not trading Miller or Camby is a joke, just like our front office.

 

[MIXUM]

I love this news. Who is gonna play PG for us? Mills????? We have no choice. And same thing with center. Marks?

Cho is making teh right call unless he can upgrade talent here. I could care less about garbage draft picks. This upcoming draFt is dismal.

 

[Mediocre Man]

When is the trade deadline?

Feb 24th 12:00 noon pacific

With a lockout looming, most likely extremely dismal. What underclassman would want to come out of school if the league is going to be locked out next year? Everybody knows that underclassmen are the gems in the draft. If they don't come out, it becomes a draft of seniors.

 

[MIXUM]

thats what im saying. this year is a shitty time to have draft picks.

 

[BBert]

The thread title really got my hopes up. I thought it said Quick is who is being moved.

 

[BlazerWookee]

Quick's source wasn't Cho. It was Trailblazers Head Coach Marc Iavaroni.

more "mixedup" disinformation...lol you only want to hear yourself as expressed by your constant posts about nada

"Deal Coming Soon"!!!

 

[andalusian]

you only want to hear yourself as expressed by your constant posts about nada

You have to admit that Meryl Streep (played by Steve Blake's wife) was pretty good in "The Mixum Posts Nada".

haha blakes wife is loved by LA media cause of her twitter during laker games. shes more famous then steve.

I heard that on the MSP this morning about Joel. I can't believe that's the real story. If it is, then I just lost a lot of respect for Cho (or whoever leaked this to JQ). How fair is that to Joel? The guy has been a model of professionalism from Day 1, and this is how you treat him? You let it get out that he's not going to be here after the deadline . . . through the media? You can't tell him when it will happen or where he's going, but by the way you will be moved somewhere between now and Feb 24th. And you get to hear it on the radio.

I'm not saying it's not fair to trade the guy, but this alleged leak is just unprofessional (if it's true).

Is that the reality though? It seems obvious to me that Joel has been in contact with Cho from some of his recent comments, and Joel has even talked in the media about ending his career in Milwaukee, just a little over a week ago I believe. So it seems to me you are making a whole lot over nothing. Plus in the modern day, it seems impossible to keep trades out of the media anyhow. There are too many communication tools out there to get information out into the world. I believe the days of trades being secret, are over.

bs

I wouldn't deal Camby either at this point...I think he has more than 1 year in the tank, he appears to not really want to be traded and his value on the floor to POR far outweighs the potential gain POR could get back via trade....

Keep him, hell resign him for another 2 years...he helps Aldridge out trenmendously....hopefully POR can get a young big to work under Camby, as his minutes are slowly reduced....

I wouldn't trade him...nt unless the deal is REALLY good for POR....


Miller, I would look to deal him...not sure there is a market for him, the team has the option to pick up the last year on his deal, which could give them another year...try and make the playoffs this year still and then deal his expiring contract next year...so just a one year delay....


Pryz getting traded is a no brainer....and if you can find anyone who still thinks Rudy has more upside than he has shown, then deal him...

Trade talk is a standard part of the game. I believe Joel is quite happy cashing those checks for 7 mil while he hobles around on one leg.

Canzano says this is the plan:

Cho is going to trade Przybilla just before the trade deadline. He'll use Andre Miller and the picks to move up on draft day. Camby needs to go, too. He's simply too old (37) to be effective much longer. Borrowed time. Not part of the future.

http://www.oregonlive.com/sports/or...ail_blazers_winning/4774/comments-newest.html

The problem with that scenario is that Andre Miller can't be traded between the end of the season and the end of June because he has an option on his last season. Players with ending contracts or options that could make them ending can't be traded during that time period. That means Cho either has to trade Miller before the deadline or wait until a new CBA is signed.
