Yea Buddy!!!

Thank you Portland for doing something right...again!

"PORTLAND, TrailBlazers.com - The Portland Trail Blazers announced today that the club has acquired All-Star center Jamaal Magloire in a trade with the Milwaukee Bucks. As part of the deal, the team sent guard Steve Blake, forward Brian Skinner and center Ha Seung-Jin to the Bucks.




The 28-year-old Magloire started all 82 games for the Bucks last season and averaged 9.2 points and a team-leading 9.5 rebounds. In the first round of the 2006 Eastern Conference playoffs, he posted 9.0 points and 8.0 rebounds in Milwaukee’s five-game loss to Detroit. Magloire finished the regular season ranked 10th in the NBA in rebounds per game, seventh in total rebounds (778) and eighth in total defensive rebounds (558). Additionally, he led the team with 17 double-doubles."

Although I am sad to see that Ha was part of this trade, I am competely stoked for Portland. (8th seed here we come!) The only reason I am sad is not from a basketball perspective...it was the fact that the dude used to attend Village. I have seen him in person...he is freaking tall. Hope all goes well Ha...have a good year...you might actually get more playing time there anyway.

welcome home!

i agree man, this is quite a pick up. i hope that they can use him along side pryzbylla (sp?) and hopefully make randolph sweat a little so he starts playing like he is capable and not slacking off so much.
