Courtside Thursday 5/8/08

Is anyone listening to Courtside tonight?

Barrett said that Pritchard and co. is back from Spain and their visit with Rudy. Supposedly, they've been impressed with Rudy and said that he is better than they thought. Even more interesting, they said Fernandez could play SG, SF, and PG. They also mentioned a possible backcourt duo of Rudy and Roy.

From reading scouting reports online, I thought that a knock on Rudy was that his handles weren't that great. Could he possibly play point guard for us or are they just being homers?

Thoughts?

Supposedly, starting next week Courtside will now be on 95.5 FM instead of KXL.

I don't know that his dribbling ability is all that amazing, but he sure can pass the ball. I think I'll have to see more than just highlight videos before I buy into that just yet.

Re: Courtside Thursday 5/8/08

I am sure they told Rudy that they see him playing everyrwhere to reinfoirce the fact he will get on the floor. And he and BRoy probably can AT TIMES play all three positions. The bottom line is that Rudy will get 30 minutes a game and play about about 90 games. He will get more than his share of minutes next year. (And won't start)MB seemed pretty confident he is coming.

Yeah, Barrett said they couldn't talk too much about Rudy coming over because he's still playing with his team in Spain, but Barrett pretty much guaranteed Rudy will be here next season. Terrific news!

Well, I guess we'll be getting to at least the second round of the playoffs, then.

Well, they're just talking about the draft and lottery. They mentioned Gordon slipping on mock draft websites and Antonio asked about Batum. Somebody said he's more of a 2-guard. Donte Greene was mentioned and they said Bayless might slip in the draft.

MB said he woudln't be disapointed if they traded out of the draft.

Re: Courtside Thursday 5/8/08

Barrett confirmed that we were trying to get Harris in the Harris-Kidd trade.

Re: Courtside Thursday 5/8/08

It is clear that these guys on court side (Vance, Rice, MB, Harvey) know about as much as the rest of us when it comes to trades. They are all over the place with their ideas on how to improve the team.

Re: Courtside Thursday 5/8/08

Blazers games (and other sports) will be on 95.5 The Game this coming season. This is probably old news to some of you.

That's a strange remark. We have a very good chance of getting someone at 13 who will eventually crack our rotation. Is MB really that big a homer that he doesn't see any players out there better than Jack, Frye, or Webster?
