  • Good move by the Blazers. Now that forces the Jazz to finish this Boozer trade (in which Hinrich goes to the Blazers) so that they can focus on Millsap.
  • Blazers making Utah pick their poison.
  • he's got scoring ability but his rebounding skills make me salivate. rebounding was one of our strengths this last season and adding millsap would really help us dominate the boards. rebounding you can take on the road... offense with a young team is not always a given.
