Blazers next target: Paul Millsap

He is a restricted free agent so Utah can match any offer for him. I doubt we will get him but if we throw big money at him and Utah does resign then they would most likely trade Boozer.

It'd be cool

But I think we'd pay him too much as a back up pf.

Yea it is a lot. He is just like a David Lee. So many good backup power forwards this summer asking for a lot of money.

DaGuru, I think you're off a little

DaGuru, Milsap is stronger than Lee and he's a fierce offensive rebounder. However, Lee is probably a better athlete. Lee is a great leaper who won a number of dunk contests in high school and college.

Every coach in the league would be happy with either player. Remember, NBA GMs focus upon offense, but it's rebounding and defense that wins games. In the end, you can't score without the ball, that's why great rebounders are critical to the success of any team.
