Armon Johnson Signed

Point guard Armon Johnson has been given a contract, filling up the 15th and final roster spot.

This does not necessarily mean the Patty Mills won't be on the Blazers. Rudy Fernandez has requested a trade, which could open up a roster spot for Mills.

I really like the potential Johnson has, and am hoping that they trade Fernandez and Bayless for some draft picks. This would create a scenario where Johnson is the backup point guard, but I still don't think he would play too much.

Brandon Roy could play point when Andre Miller is out, with Wesley Matthews at 2, and Batum at 3.

Andre Miller: 4 More Years

Andre Miller stated that he would like to play in the NBA four more years before retiring.

He is currently in the second year of his contract, the Blazers hold a team option for next year.

If they could re-sign him for around $5 million a year I think he would be a great starter as Armon Johnson develops.
