Welcome to the party CBS. We’re happy to have you.

Ken Berger says the Amar’e to Portland rumors have “unraveled” but is hearing the same things we have been for months regarding the Blazers need for a point guard.

“…The deal Portland was discussing with Phoenix involved LaMarcus Aldridge, Jerryd Bayless, and Raef LaFrentz’s $12.7 million expiring contract. “That deal is dead,” the person familiar with the talks said. One reason could be that Portland is really looking to acquire an elite point guard, according to an NBA team executive. That begs the question of whether Portland G.M. Kevin Pritchard was asking for Steve Nash. But according to another rival executive, the Suns have made it clear that Nash, Grant Hill, and Leandro Barbosa are “untouchable.”

We’ve heard  it is still very much Andre Miller. In fact, even the Philly media is talking about it. They are trying to make it work…if not they may look, as Ken mentions below, at Ray Felton.
