Quick: Rudy will not be traded

[KingSpeed]

9 hours ago: Jason Quick tweeted "Sources say Rudy Fernandez will not be traded by Blazers."

"... to clear a roster spot for Oberto"

This doesn't mean he won't be traded at some point this season.

 

[ironcrotch]

or won't be traded for a shitty draft pick

 

[THE HCP]

ya, this has to do with the Oberto addition.

I think there will not be another trade until Melo gets taken care of. If he is traded, the Blazers are going to try and use that situation to get a different PG, be it Billups, Harris, or someone else. But the trading of Melo will alter who is on the Block, and the Blazers would be wise to keeps as much of their trading fodder to exploit that moment in time.

considering how bad bayless looks, how could the blazers trade rudy? there is no offense anywhere on that bench besides matthews.

Imagine how awesome it would've been had there been twitter when Jason broke the Ivaroni story.

jwquick: hold on, they're asking me to leave. tell Damon I love him!

jwquick: mark it down, Ivaroni next coach. deets coming quick. Hehe, quick. Get it? LOL

Our insiders suck. Especially on Twitter!

Brian T. Smith, now the Jazz beat writer, is killing it on Twitter. He's very informative of the ongoings with the Utah Jazz.

 

[THE HCP]

Smith was real good!

 

[BGrantFan]

Looks like Quick has a heads-up from somebody. I'm guessing the leak of the details came from the NO side of things.

 

[KingSpeed]

Looks like Quick was on top of things after all..

 

[THE HCP]

No, not really. Somebody told him after practice that Rudy wasn't going to be traded and he typed it!
