Sorry for the double post. But the Blazers should be ok. They still have Aldridge and Pryzbilla. Aldridge is much better than Oden anyways.
This is a blessing in disguise for the Blazers in the big picture. If the Blazers suck again and have another top 5 lottery pick, they will have the new 2008 rookie, Oden, and LaMarcus Aldridge. This could be the beginning of a future powerhouse.
Good Point. Imagine if they end up with a pick at around 5-10 range, and select a guy like pg, Darron Collison. But I don't think they will suck that bad to become a top 5 lottery team though.
from vince young to durrant. "experts" sure do know how to botch opportunities with longhorn superstars.
I can see the Blazers fan cheering now.. with Oden out, it's time to tank again for another 1st draft pick!
the end of jailblazers the begining of hospitalblazers? sux for them funny thing is i was searching on google "who are the jailblazers" yesterday, and today odem is out
what if the Blazers got OJ Mayo or DErrick Rose next year, they will be an unstoppable dynasty for the next 10 years
if durant stays healthy there is no way he doesnt win ROY. seriously you either dont know, or are forgetting how good that dude is.
There is a lot of Sam Bowie talk on the radios in Portland today. If you look at Greg Oden's short career so far, he has never been healthy for a full year. This doesn't look very promising for the future of the Blazers. At least they already sold out all those extra season tickets.
Sam Bowie..... Bill Walton..... Greg Oden..... Does anyone still not agree that the Portland Trailblazers is a cursed franchise?
