From Blazersedge: "Mike Barrett was fairly emphatic Monday night that signing Armon Johnson ended Patty Mills chance of being signed by the Blazers. While that likely will be the outcome, Brian T. Smith took the time to clarify Mills' position with the team." Read the actual article here: http://www.columbian.com/weblogs/blazerbanter/2010/aug/03/notes-mills-still-belongs-to-blazers/ So, we maybe could have snagged the St. Mary's alum by offering a little more than the $1M qualifying offer the Blazers gave him, but instead we shell out $2.4M for Jannero freaking Pargo? Ugh...
