    DO NOT SCARE BLAZERS FANS WITH THESE RUMORS.

    If Pritch does this Portland will kjill him, all for devin harris. I dont believe it!

      I just posted what Yahoo is reporting. The talks seem to be in the very early stages and I agree it doesn't make sense that the Blazers would give all those players 1) just to get Devin Harris or 2) to make the Mavericks that much better. Rod Thorn does seem pretty intent on moving Kidd sooner or later though.

    Devin Harris is good, but Travis and Channing are so promising. It seems so strange that pritch would break them up.

      I've heard this rumore this week. I just don't know if getting Kidd would be the answer to Dallas' problems. Harris is an up and coming point guard who is going proabably going to be an All-Star in a year or so. Now, we might give up Jason Terry and Bass. Should be interesting.

      Never going to happen. Never was even a possibility. KP said he listens to offers, but is not seeking ANY DEALS. Go Blazers!
  • lesajo
    Hope that doesn't happen. Would clearly help Dallas the most. Not sure why blazers would do that, doesn't add the vet they need and they are giving up way too much. We'll all just have to wait and see

    This deal is dead, says Jason Quick of The Oregonian. Thank God.

    Outlaw stays. That's good.
    • Correction. The deal isn't dead. It was never alive in the first place. Pritch aka "the magician" aka "the wizard" may have fielded a call but he isn't entertaining any offers for anyone right now. As "the wizard" has said before: Unless a deal involves LeBron, DWade, or D Howard, he ain't listening.

    Yeah just heard that on 1080. Sounds dead to me.

    None of this explains why Jason Kidd is making the Screech-just-said-something-bizarre-about-bugs-to-Lisa face in that picture.

    THIS IS GARBAGE - DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE!!

    (did lebron travel on that "game-winning" drive?)
    • guttersnype
      your right this is garbage!! portland wont even put darius miles into the lineup because they dont want to mess up the chemistry, so i definately dont think they're going to ship out outlaw and jack just for devin harris.
      and lebron did about as much travelling as portland did defending.

    Yes the Blazers lost at the end in heart breaking fashion. Just another learning experience that we have to learn to play with leads and play to win. We always end up protection a lead instead of playing our game which is make a serious attempt to score instead of trying to stop the other team.
  • Rosecity07
    oh...and There is no way we trade Outlaw, we extended his contact for a reason. Harris is worse than Flopajao.
  • PhuckPhilly

    I would rather keep Harris than get an aging point guard.
  • I think we should trade for Harris. His numbers are better than Outlaw and he is just as young. Portland is going to need a solid point guard next year and Blake doesn't cut it. Plus, Outlaw has been inconsistent for the past 4 years, Harris was solid from day one.
    Losing Fry would really hurt us this year because our front court is already pretty bad at rebounding and defense, but Oden can fix that. I know it hurts to lose Outlaw but we already have three great scoring options and Harris is one of the leagues best defensive point guards. Once we move trade Jack and move Blake to the second unit we should lower our turnovers by quite a bit as well.
    P.S. Portland is the worst in the leage when it comes to points in the paint and Harris is known for his ability to get to the rim. Sounds like a good fit to me.

    Avery Johnson said this is not going to happen. I think he's happy with Harris.
    • brewcrewrules
      i think this also, but i wasnt sure till i heard it from you philly.
  • theoneandonly

    Avery Johnson said pretty much the same thing about chemistry as somebody did earlier in a post... He doesnt know why you would change something that isnt broken... I tend to agree... Im just glad the lakers got Gasol..
  • Blazermark
    Wont ever happen. The Blazers aren't shopping. Just some homers hoping the Blazers will do something stupid to help their teams out. KP has shown that he is a brilliant GM. He isn't going to give a future star up and change for another PG. Go Blazers!!
