Blazers Chat with Jason Quick
February 3, 2005

Is the Darius Miles situation casting a shadow over this team?
The Oregonian's Jason Quick breaks down the state of the Blazers:


Clip 1 - Is Mo Cheeks a "lame duck" coach? How many of the team's
         problems are management's fault?
Quick's take:"I think it was a slap in (Cheeks') face only giving
             Darius Miles two games. I think the coach wanted
             to give him 10 games. John Nash wanted to give him
             zero games. I just think it's ridiculous the way
             the upper management has poo-poo'd this incident."


Clip 2 - In your opinion, is the team playing like it's waiting
         for Mo Cheeks to be fired?
Quick's take:"No, I don't think so. I think there are really
             only two people who have a problem with the way
             things are going right now, and that's Darius Miles
             and Zach Randolph."


Clip 3 - So have Cheeks and Miles buried the hatchet, or could
         this problem flare up again?
Quick's take:"I don't think they have mended their differences
             in any way, shape or form. I think it was the
             potential to erupt again. As one player told me,
             'I don't know if you can keep Zach and Darius
             together on this team in the future.'"


Clip 4 - Can Zach re-invent his game to be a better passer and
         all-around player?
Quick's take:"It's a little bit of a shock to him, I think, that
             all of the sudden he's kind of faded out of the
             spotlight of this team. I think he's trying right
             now and I think he understands..."


Clip 5 - Any word on the trade front?
Quick's take:"It appears that Nick Van Exel has been drawing
             some interest around the league. It looks like
             five teams are going to make a push for him. I
             heard one agent say that (Dallas's) Jason Terry
             and maybe a younger guy would be a good fit..."


Clip 6 - What's the latest on Blazer draftee Sergei Monya, who
         currently plays for CSKA Moscow?
Quick's take:"It sounds like the Blazers might go ahead and
             try to sign Sergei Monya this year and get him
             over here."


Clip 7 - Is Viktor Khryapa risking further injury by returning
         to action ahead of schedule?
Quick's take:"He was going 100% (in practice) and the team said
             'Gosh, if he has a couple more practices, we should
             bring the doctor in here and have an exam and see
             if he'll clear him to play.' Sure enough..."


Clip 8 - Can this team still put together some kind of playoff run?
Quick's take:"February is the time for this team to make their
             move. Going into March 1st, I think they ned to be
             at least within four (games of the 8th playoff spot)."


Clip 9 - Will the starting lineup change anytime soon? What about
         the style of play?
Quick's take:"It think (Cheeks) will stick with this for a while
             until something tells him otherwise."


Clip 10 - What's the latest on Shareef Abdur-Rahim's recovery?
Quick's take:"John Nash the other day said that Shareef is
             progressing along rapidly and it looks like he
             might be able to come back for that February trip.
             But I talked to Shareef last night and he said
             'I don't know where you got that.' His doctor said
             another four weeks (from last week)."
