Andre Miller to join Blazers

[MapleLeaf]

From rotoworld.com

Point guard Andre Miller has agreed to join the Trail Blazers, where he should replace Steve Blake as the starter.
The deal is said to be for two or three years, and essentially ruins the fantasy value of Blake. However, it now looks like Lou Williams will be the starting point guard in Philly, making him an excellent sleeper pick. Miller's numbers shouldn't change too much in Portland, making him a solid No. 1 PG option.

Good for Portland, bad for Philly.

Agreed with Pugz. From Twitter:

wow, big signing.

Great signing for Portland. They'll be a force to be reckoned with now.

 

[The Young One]

They still are at best the 4th best team in the west.

 

[Pugz]

I'd say they are third, ahead of Denver by a couple inches.

 

[The Young One]

Naw Denver has them beat barely. It doesnt matter really. The west runs threw the lakers and spurs and neither of them can beat them in a series.

Blazers need one more year to develop in my books.
But 2010 season, they will be a contender.

I have to agree with with rip... i cant wait to see the blazers play this year

Good signing, I honestly didn't see us actually pulling the trigger on him after all the rumors and no action from us for a long time. I'm happy with it though, one of the guys I wanted us to go after since day one. Now we just need to trade Blake which I'd hate to see but it's him or Bayless.

great addition to blazers, the next move is to trade steve blake for some decent players to add onto the bench!
