The Grizzlies and the Blazers are having ongoing discussions about a trade that would reunite Mike Conley with Greg Oden in Portland.

The deal originally started off as a player-for-player swap early in the summer involving Mike Conley and Travis Outlaw. Although, since then, more player have been added to the mix.

The Grizzlies reportedly wanted to include Hakim Warrick in the package and asked for the Blazers to offload Steve Blake. The Blazers countered with Sergio Rodriguez but the Grizzlies declined the offer as they are not interested in the Spaniard.

The parties have until the NBA trade deadline, on Feb. 19 at 2 p.m, to materialize the deal.

Portland would be making a huge mistake if hey got rid of Travis Outlaw. He’s athletic, he can shoot ad he is a solid defender. Portland does not need to make any moves. Mike Conley will not make them a better team. They already have five people on their roster who can play the point position. Portland needs time to jell and they will be fine. Once they go through a playoff series together, they will get better. Too much tweaking will mess things up.

About Us

NBA Rumors was created by three college grads who played Division III NCAA basketball for Berkeley College. Back then, basketball was our life. A day did not go by without us talking about what was going on in the NBA.

Today, we are all working in our respective industries in Midtown Manhattan. And two years after we graduated, basketball started to fall out of our radar as we started spending more time in the office and less time on the court. Therefore, we created this blog to reunite our passion for the love of NBA and basketball across the world.

We hope that you will enjoy our blog. We are intensively working on our coffee breaks to bring you the best rumors that the NBA has to offer.
