Damon coming home!

[Gregory Odegaard <grodeg@kalama.com>]

Damon, Walt and Carlos to the Blazers for Kenny (I won't play for Toronto) Anderson, Gary Trent and Alvin Williams (big surprise 2nd rounder).  Two 1st rounders to the Raptors likely worth little or nothing.  Paul Allen opens the vault picking up the 40 million or so for Anderson's contract.  Kenny may need more than that to keep him happy.

Listening to the Portland radio, questioning giving up the picks, a East Coast talking head (ESPN's Mitch Lawrence), noted 1st rounds picks are worth much.  He said "look at the Celtics, they were in line for Duncan, and got stiffed, to suffer for 15 years"  My heart continues to bleed for this stud.  Chauncy we love you too.  He noted both Rogers and Walt Williams were and will always be stiffs.  This guy says the Blazers will contend, in years to come with Cato developing in the future.  

Have a great weekend,  (I do mean you too Theresa)
