Przybilla downplays rumor of anger
By Kerry Eggers
The Portland Tribune, Jul 10, 2006
Joel Przybilla has heard it, too. That he is angry at Darius Miles and, to a
lesser extent, Zach Randolph, for their behavior last season. That he wants
Trail Blazer management to trade Miles, and perhaps Randolph as well.
“That’s not true,” says Przybilla, who is expected to sign a five-year,
$32-million free-agent contract with Portland on Wednesday. “Darius went
through a rough time last year. We all did, with all the losing. He hurt his
knee, and it seemed like everything went downhill from there. He didn’t
handle everything great, but he’s a good guy and a good player. Darius, Zach
and I, we’re pretty tight. Everything is going to start fresh in October.
Those guys want to win, just like me.”
‧ Last season, coach Nate McMillan was perplexed over the logjam at point
guard with Sebastian Telfair, Jarrett Jack and Steve Blake. So the Blazers
trade Telfair to alleviate the problem — then get a point guard, Dan Dickau,
in return, draft another point guard, Sergio Rodriguez, and experiment with
draft pick Brandon Roy at the point.
In addition, McMillan said he wanted to leave a roster spot or two open going
into the season, so the Blazers could acquire additional talent, if
necessary. Now they are at the NBA limit of 15 guaranteed contracts. What
gives?
“It’s something we didn’t want to do, but we were kind of put in a
situation where we had to,” McMillan says.
The coach means the opportunity to land Rodriguez was too good to pass up.
Rodriguez probably will open the season in the NBA Developmental League, but
if he shows well in training camp, I’d feel uneasy if I were Dickau.
‧ Eduardo Schell, a Spanish journalist who has covered the 6-3 Rodriguez,
20, the past couple of years, offers this appraisal of Portland’s draft
pick: “Not yet a star, but he is on the correct path … he can change a game
himself, (has) a great mind to read the flow of a game. He likes to take
risks when he passes the ball, and his game is totally NBA. People there will
like him a lot … he’s always smiling, tries to make everybody comfortable
and likes to make jokes, but at the same time, is a hard worker. The best
thing is, though things are going extremely fast for him, he stays humble,
with his feet on the ground.”
‧ McMillan’s first impression of rookies Roy of Washington and LaMarcus
Aldridge of Texas at the Las Vegas Summer League: “They are both very
skilled players, fundamentally sound, as far as footwork and being in the
right place. Their basketball IQs seem to be pretty high. They both went to
good universities and played under good coaches. You can see they have been
taught how to play the game.”

只能說有些事似乎跟我們想像的不一樣XD
Joel Przybilla表示他並沒有對Miles和Randolph的表現感到生氣，
並且駁斥一些外界的不實傳言。
另外現在又有rumor說拓荒者目前沒有計畫要交易Miles到灰狼交換Jaric，
至於下一季是不是要把Miles留在拓荒者，或是後續另有交易計畫這就不得而知了。
