Dr. Feelgood Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Trail Blazers general manager Rich Cho on Thursday said that across the NBA Nicolas Batum garners as much trade interest as any other player on the Trail Blazers. But as the league's Feb. 24 trading deadline nears, the organizational stance from Cho down to coach Nate McMillan makes it sound like the chances the Blazers trade their 22-year-old small forward are close to slim and none. "That kid, he's 22, and you know, you have to ask, is he untouchable?" Blazers coach Nate McMillan said Thursday. "And yeah, I think he is. That's an organizational decision, but a young talent like that, you can't ... they won't ... we won't (trade Batum). But he is definitely a very attractive player for a lot of teams." http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2011/01/trail_blazers_dont_expect_any.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JYD Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 I see the Blazers about 3 times per year whenever they play the Knicks but that Nicolas Batum was very very impressive. You guys have a very good overall player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
