This does not allow us to trade steve blake unless we got an elite PG for him and outlaw. I doubt that will happen so to trade Steve Blake and Outlaw for a PG who is equal or less than Miller is counterproductive. Steve knows the system well and has tremendous chemistry with the rest of the team. If we were to trade Steve Blake and Outlaw for say, a PF we would have a gaping hole at PG. Bayless isn’t ready to be a true PG as was showed during summer league. We need Miller and Blake. Signing Andre was a necessity.

I’m also warming up to Andre Miller being a Blazer. For one, because B-Roy says so. Secondly, because no matter what way you slice it he’s an upgrade over Steve Blake. Lastly, in a perfect world we now have the option to trade Steve Blake and/or Travis Outlaw without being screwed six ways from Sunday. I’ll be honest, even though I’m warming to the move…I still think that this move doesn’t enter the ‘home run’ category until (or if) we make another move.

I have to admit I’m warming to Dre being a Blazer. I feel like he’s A) going to overcome poor perimeter shooting with his savvy and B) at a bargain, if this experiment fails we don’t lose much. If anything I hope his experience rubs off on Steve (so next time he calls timeout instead of jacking up an angle three pointer). Not the best signing possible but I think it’s still better than just a lateral move.
