Blazers President Says Roster Moves No Indication Paul Allen Is Looking To Sell

Trail Blazers President Larry Miller said Owner Paul Allen is “still absolutely committed to this team,” and Thursday’s slew of roster moves -- including trading C Marcus Camby and F Gerald Wallace, releasing C Greg Oden and firing coach Nate McMillan -- “have had nothing to do with positioning the team for sale.” Miller said Allen is as “involved as he’s ever been in this team.” Miller: “I talk to him and email with him on a regular basis. He’s very, very involved with this team.” He added of the possibility Allen was looking to sell, “I would hope that I would know. … If that was the case, I would be aware of that and be involved in it and I can tell you right now, I have no knowledge” (CSNNW.com, 3/15).
