Rudy Fernandez Questioning Coming to Portland...

Interview transcript at Oregon Live: http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindblazersbeat/2008/03/lost_in_translation_did_rudy_c.html

Of course, he fears that Nate will mess up the situation and not properly use him (I don't blame him for thinking this)...

Word is Kevin Pritchard is going to fly to Spain and talk to Rudy after the NCAA Tournament and this raises an intriguing question:

What happens if Rudy says he isn't coming unless McMuffin was to be removed... I say we def. take Rudy and we better hope Phoenix really collapses and fires D'Antoni b/c his system would really favor Rudy and Sergio AND we'd finally be able to use Aldridge's speed and agility like they do w/Amare to run down the court and score in 5 seconds. And Oden should be a younger Shaq that Phoenix lacked on on defense from their previous playoff pushes with a damn good backup in Pryzbilla...

Of course if, D'Antoni isn't available, I still wouldn't mind a change at the helm... Jeff Van Gundy... there is no reason for you to be not coaching (Although your commentary is grade A stuff and would miss you if you left) and you would be da' man the Blazers could use!!

Something to think up Blazer fans and Blazer management...

Cavs Game

Another blown double digit lead resulting in a loss for the Blazers...

Apparently, Nate didn't make the adjustments in the 2nd half... Numerous times the Blazers used too much of the shot clock which resulted in terrible shot selection. Mike Barret made a great comment about it and it seemed to frustrate him as well me... Get in there Coach Barrett!! Hell, sign me up Kevin Pritchard!!
