More on Batum

Batum arrived in Portland on Wednesday from Europe and is expected to take a physical and sign his contract Thursday, solidifying the Blazers' starting small forward position and cementing Batum's status as a cornerstone piece of a rebuilding franchise. "I'm happy about it," Batum said. "I knew I was going to be back here." Oregonian

I'm starting to hate the Cavs........ first they back out of helping the Nets get Dwight, now they're helping the Fakers get Dwight. Only hope is Houston come up with something better for Orlando.

Dude's got potential, High basketball IQ (Low regular IQ) and is 7'0 tall and has a 7'6" wingspan... Plus, I was at this game

Yeah, he has potential, but so did a lot of the other players that signed big contracts around the league and now nobody wants.

I see your video and raise it with this one..

Any more on Dwight-LA today??

Apparently he'll re-sign with LA if traded there, but it's coming down to what ORL want in the deal.

To me, they've obviuously got a poison player, and need to move him on. Question is, do you trade if for nothing (shit trade), or try to get something of reasonable value, or just bench his arse all year, and let him walk end of the season?

I'd be tempted to go with the latter. I mean the guy is just selfish, he's disrespectful, and simply put, he's just no good for the team. Hold him out of practices, put him on the inactive list all season, and let his arse walk.

The proposed deal with LAL/CLE is shit, at best, you'll get Anderson Varajeo (spelling), who has a shitty contract, is an average undersized bigman. If they make a move for LALs draft picks, that's just rediculous, it's not like the Lakers will have any value in their DPs for years to come.
