| I was right about Strick! What did I told you? Strickland signed a $ 2.25 million dollar contract for the rest of the season. When Rod played in Portland from 1992 to 1996, he averaged 17 points and 8.6 assists per game. Rod Strickland will be Damon Stoudamire's backup this season. "It's a great team from up to bottom, I'm looking forward to get in a winning situation." Rod said. While the Blazers thought nothing of spending $ 2.25 million to get a player for 22 games, the health of our backup point guard Greg Anthony influenced the deal as much as anything. Greg, slowly recovered from off-season surgery to both ankles, has missed the last five games with a sore right shoulder that may require periodic cortisone shots, Greg was hurt when Utah's Jaque Vaughn crashed into him near the sideline, going for a loose ball on february 22. |
