One can only hope. But to be honest I like what we've been seeing from Greene. I think he's really been one of our best guys off the bench (out of Garcia, Hickson, Greene, IT, Jimmer, Outlaw) when he doesn't just settle for 3s. But he's been rebounding pretty ok, leading numerous good breaks and moving the ball well

Assume Salmons is in fact sick, which is not a terrible stretch. We know he hasn't been playing well, and Garcia has been playing a bit better. Donte has been filling in at the PF a lot against opponent's second units with Hayes out - we do only have three true bigs right now. And Outlaw was bound to get some PT last night , on the second half of a back-to-back with only nine players in action once Thornton decided he couldn't go.

I really like Honeycutt's athleticism. Hope he gets some minutes to see what he can go, we have nothing to lose. Big athletic SFs give us the biggest problems ie Rudy Gay, Carmelo Anthony, Gerald Wallace, Michael Beasley, Iguodala, etc

Honeycutt is athletic, but he's rail thin like Kevin Martin. Needs to get a lot stronger.
I'm guessing Smart needs more bodies for full 5 on 5 practice in the coming days. There are a few days for practice later next week.

Honestly I'd take Kevin Martins skinny body any day! Sure it won't solve our defensive or ball distribution issues but at least Kevin could score points when Thornton or Evans randomly decide to score nothing every other game! MeehH!!

Agree with you that's he's not strong enough. He's thin, but he looks like he has the frame to add bulk, unlike Kevin Martin.

You are most likely correct. It would be great to trade for Prince or that type of SF.

It would likely take Hickson to get Batum. That leaves the Kings thin up front. I don't see the Blazers accepting anyone else the Kings would be willing to give up.

If that deal was done there would be three Bigs once Hayes comes back. That would mean lots of Greene and Outlaw at the Stretch 4.

Haha, for real! Hickson for Batum? I'd do that trade 6 days a week and twice on sundays....Or whatever that dumb phrase is.

I think Portland makes this trade. Do not under value JJ Hickson. He would be the 2nd or 3rd Big in terms of value if he was on the Blazers. LMA is better and perhaps Camby, but JJ has youth on him as Camby is 37. The other Bigs on the Blazers roster are Craig Smith 28, Kurt Thomas 39 and Chris Johnson a 26 yo center who was undrafted and plays a few minutes a game.

If Batum is all that why is he not starting over Gerald Wallace?
