If Camby was had for two super first round busts with small contracts (J Flynn, Thabeet) , why the hell didn't we make an attempt to get him?

Because the only things we had more attractive than Thabeet and Flynn are JJJ and E'twaun and Doc hasn't let either guy play enough to entice anyone into trading for them.  At least Flynn has proven he'll probably be a decent back-up.

Jonny Flynn is horrible.  Rockets fans are probably happy to be rid of him.  I will always think of this flow chart.

I also wonder why the Celtics did get him? Or maybe they tried and the Blazers like Houston deal better. But wish he was here!

Thabeet is a more interesting prospect to Portland than anyone we would be willing to offer, IMHO.

Im hoping somehow,  someway that danny has a strong idea of the Kaman situation and him landing here or another buyout.

Blazers aren't considering those guys,(thabeet and flynn )[/quote] as having any value imo. Aren't they just expirings?
