Fernandez would instantly be our starting 2 and he can actually score, but his salary is really low. Trading for him would make it difficult, when he makes about a milion and what would Portland want from us? Kidd's the only guy I think Portland would want. As far as Gortat, anybody is better then Dampier at center right?

LOL

Gortat is a joke. 4 pts 4 reb and we are prepared to give him the full MLE? we cannot recognize talent.

A joke?

That’s while averaging 12 minutes a game behind the best center in the league. With starter minutes that becomes a double double. Dampier averages 6 points and 6 rebounds with an average of 25 minutes.

i'd just as soon give dampier's minutes to hollins.

I mean, I guess it would just be a guy who you know, grabs bananas and runs. Or, um, a banana that grabs things. I don’t know. Why would a banana grab another banana? I mean, those are the kind of questions I don’t want to answer.

is it possible?

I’d really like to have him here.

only unless Portland feels he is a problem,

there is no other reason to let him go, he is extremely cheap right now and is a good player

When Howard couldn't play, Gortats game in the starting 5 usuallly ended in him getting double-double

Also, he seems very strong mentally, so he will be prepared to start at Dallas if you want him to.

About Rudy – he’s a great shooter, has very high BBIQ, great off the ball game and his salary is very low, so there really isn’t any reason why Portland would like to trade him.
Oh, and about him being upset – I saw an interview where he said it’s all just rumours and he’s very happy in Portland.
