Re: Rudy Fernandez: there is "a 90 percent chance" of playing in the NBA next season
Lovely translation.
"The baloncestista Rudy Fernandez"
If he comes, Will he be a Portlandista or Blazerista?

He'll also be expecting many minutes to make up for his lower salary

Re: Rudy Fernandez: there is "a 90 percent chance" of playing in the NBA next season
I took this translation from the O-Live board, hopefully it is accurate. It reads better;
Quote:
Rudy Fernandez admits that, "there is a 90% chance" that he will play in the NBA next season
Spanish guard Rudy Fernandez is preparing for his journey to the NBA next season. The player from DKV Joventut has admitted that there is a "90% chance" he will be playing in the best league in the world next season, specifically for the Portland Trail Blazers, along side Sergio Rodriguez. Spanish manager Pepu Hernandez has offered his support, adding, "Whatever decision he makes, he makes. I think things will turn out well for him."
Rudy has admitted that he wants to achieve "the dream" of playing in the United States, even though he made it clear that his priorities lie with Joventut and their effort to win the league title. Rudy Fernandez was selected by the team from Oregon in the first round of the 2007 NBA draft with the 24th pick overall. It is assumed that he will sign a three-year rookie contract with the team.
Rudy also said that he speaks often with Sergio Rodriguez, the Spanish point guard who plays in Portland, who keeps him up to date on the team and the quality of life in the city. In any case, Rudy is asking for "a lot of minutes" to make up for the economic losses that he will supposedly suffer in his first years in the NBA. "I don't want the Penya fans to think poorly of me, but the team knew when I resigned last year that I did it under the condition that I'd be leaving after the season," said the Juventut guard.

Blazeristo.
Not Blazerista.
Unless he changes his sex.

Just play your game, and you will be fine.

Actually Blazerista would be more accurate but both are not usually used this way in spanish. It would be more like "el jugador de los Blazers" (Blazers player), or simply Blazer would suit better

is that what Jack does?
It wouldn't surprise me to see KP consolidate considerably in order to force Nate's hand to play him minutes...
What can a Jack/Outlaw/pick package get us? It would free up time for Rudy and Channing (who will look much better when next to Oden than when next to Pryz or Outlaw with no inside offense on the court)
targets:
Harris
Calderon
Iguodala
Deng
Conley
...

I think it could move us up in the draft. I really think that's what will happen.
