We need to condense our roster with better overall players than add more marginal players to clutter the roster. Deng makes a lot and is a marginal talent in my view. Mason, he just seems to be a Spurs kind of player. I have no problem adding a scorer for the bench like Mike Miller, but they need to deal at least 3 players for 1 with the 1 being a big improvement. With all this CP3 talk, I will go back to my original post I made somewhere else and that was Collison and Okafor for some salary relief. Collison can take over the reigns when Miller leaves, most likely after this year, and Okafor can be the real PF we are missing. Even if both come off the bench, I would like the addition. I am also in favor of LAM for the reported deal of Harris and Favors. Heck do both deals and then deal Miller for a shooter/scorer. I don't want much...especially w/o a GM in place. :) I have to agree. We need to condense our roster with better overall players than add more marginal players to clutter the roster.

I wish the Deng rumors would stop. Decent player, but I don't see why you make a move for Deng with so much young talent that needs minutes. Yeah yeah, veteran talent > young talent, I know. But really, who wants to see Deng getting Dante's or Babbitt's minutes? MEH. I can't bear the thought of seeing Roger Mason AND Deng on the Blazers bench next year. Decent people, it seems, but both players have peaked. Ugh, Deng. I wish the Deng rumors would stop.
