He really has done a solid job drafting talent and getting draft picks. It is like the last sentence stated, just shutup and do your job and you will be taken care of.

that email was sent out by blazers president larry miller.

r u sure. I could have sworn Pritchard sent it. In any case, the guy has clearly pissed off management, which is never a good way to keep your job.

The Portland Trail Blazers have a message for the NBA's 29 other teams -- don't sign Darius Miles.

If a team were to sign the free-agent forward "for the purpose of adversely impacting the Portland Trail Blazers' salary cap and tax positions," the Blazers might pursue litigation, team president Larry Miller stated in an e-mail obtained by SI.com and Yahoo! Sports late Thursday night.

"Please be aware that if a team engages in such conduct, the Portland Trail Blazers will take all necessary steps to safeguard its rights, including, without limitation, litigation," Miller wrote, according to the memo.
