Re: Would you take Portlands solid young guys for KG?

Maybe it was just his relationship with Casey, or maybe it was more than that, don't know. It's hard for us to judge because all we can do is watch the games and read stuff, we don't really know what's happening in practice and in the locker room. I think there's still a risk with keeping Ricky around.

I (begrudgingly) agree on Randolph though. He's too talented for a team in our desperate situation to pass up, if the price is right of course.
true, im not saying hes been perfect because theres always something to the stories whether they have ben blown out of proportion or not.
I remember that incident (now that you mention it lol), however outside of that i havnt heard of any 'big' problems with ricky, and especially nothing that has been news worthy.
i still want to trade him, not because of any issues he has but simply because he should have high value around the league, hes a reasonably cheap contract, puts up impressive stats and is an expiring deal... combine him with a number 7 pick and i think its the start of a very solid deal for a star.


oh and totally agree on Zach, we are a team in need of taking a risk or 2.... a 23/9 post guy is a pretty good risk to take a chance on IMO.
