Oden is already arguably the 2nd best defensive C in the league, it is scary to think how good he could be on the defensive end if he could stay healthy and learn not to foul so much. He is as good a rebounder and shotblocker you could want though. If he has one more huge injury though it might be time for the Blazers to find a new C moving forward. But you can't give up on a kid who is still only 21 or 20 years old, I don't remember how old he is. If he plays well people will forget it, people have put all those things in the back of their mind about what Kobe did before (The Denver incident, the Bynum video, asking for a trade, etc).

Which team do you like better to win a title in the next 5 years?

He better start drilling those 3's in the playoffs or else Celtics are screwed.

people act like we made the out of the blue pick taking Bargs, he was on the top of many mocks, should we have taken Roy? Yes. Aldridge or Gay? Yes. Would anyone else have taken Roy? No, Aldridge and Gay? Probably, would Aldridge and Gay re-sign here after their 4th year? Obviously our team didn't think so, they took the guy who they thought would be best for us long term. If Wall and Turner said they didn't want to play here why would be choose them? (just a hypothetical) We would select the best player available who we believed would be committed to us long term.

Right there with Denver/Dallas on paper and right below the Lakers. Can Kevin Martin be the 2nd best player on a championship team? Can Brooks run the point on a championship team? Can Yao stay healthy? is their bench good enough? There are too many things up in the air right now, to me at least, as to whether or not this team can contend. They do have a lot of talent though in their starting 5. A fully healthy Yao definitely makes this a 50-55 win team though IMO, the Lakers are still better and the Mavs/Nuggs are right there, of course this is all speculative since we haven't seen them with Yao. But Ariza and Martin are good spot up shooters, and should compliment Yao's game perfectly.

Bulls will go 2-2, Raptors will have to go 1-3 to miss, it is a shame because I see us stealing a game and going 2-2, I really want us to miss the po's. I think in the end we will make the playoffs and get owned.

Doubling or tripling LeBron is a fail idea with all the shooters are his disposal, his court vision is as good as anyone's and he will find the open shooter before the double even affects him. Be physical with him? Who is going to be physical with him? LeBron is arguably the strongest pound for pound player in the league, not to mention after the first quarter the calls will be going his way once he whines to the ref. If you mean not giving him any easy buckets, well I might argue that he can finish through contact better than anyone. The best way you can play LeBron is sag off and hope he launches 3's and misses them. Also who is to say if you hit LeBron he won't hit you back? LeBron can flatten anyone in the league with a dunk today if he wanted. The only person who can stop him, is himself, by taking jumpers over and over. Besides the Cavaliers have enough guys who will step in if LeBron is getting roughed up, I think times have passed and the way the game is officiated nothing like this can or will happen. Also LeBron's FT shooting is not a liability, you can't 'hack-a-shaq' him if that is what you are suggesting, he gets to the line as much as anyone already and shoots like 80%.

I want to keep the pick because it is an asset. Not to mention, we miss the playoffs now, we can attribute it to injuries and not our suckiness. At the draft, I believe our expirings, Demar, Sonny, and our lotto should be enough to land us a really good piece in one last attempt to convince Bosh to stay. Of course we only make this move if Bosh approves and says that it makes us good enough. If Bosh says he is gone then at least adding a lotto pick is better than getting swept in the first round and losing Bosh anyways. I honestly think right now keeping the pick and using it as an asset in a trade is a better chance of keeping Bosh than a first round sweep. Jamison was dealt for straight expirings, there has to be some wing out there that we can get for expirings and two good prospects, Demar and our lotto, isn't there? Maybe I am just in denial idk, I am having a hard time dealing with the team we might be looking at next year, my gut tells me that if we lose Bosh BC will make a deal that will make us win 35 games next year instead of 20 games, and get us 12th pick instead of a top 3 pick <_<

What an idiot.

The new Splinter Cell.

WIN CHICAGO WIN

Derozan+Lotto pick and expirings for him Also I think Nelson hates Monta and viceversa.

I edited my post I didn't know if I was allowed to post smut lol....

LOL at that first pic of Beyonce, wtf??? Anyways she gets my vote because I don't think Underwood is that special, I see girl in highschool that I think are as good as her.

Kardashian.

Tiger is looking rock solid.

If they were sitting near or atop the West it'd be okay, drop the money left and right, but they seem to be in denial that this core's window has closed. This team doesn't look like they will win another championship together unless something drastic changes.

I want Sonny Weems and Jarret Jack playing 48 minutes a game.

Idk I think he might wind up being better than Derozan though.

LOL HEDO'S FACE IS BROKEN NOW TOO.

Sonny Weems is a stud.

Hopefully we don't win a game the rest of the way, Derozan+Lotto pick+Expirings for Iguodala, get er done BC.

Overpaid.

A lot of annoying things have happened to screw this franchise over in recent years tbh (Salmons, Garbo, TJ, winning the lotto messed us up too lol, imagine we picked at 5?).... and about Swirsky I read somewhere (maybe here?) that BC ran him out of town because he wanted a more professional and unbiased play by play man for the Raptors. He gave him that season to find a new job, then he was gone. But I do miss TJ Ford from the 47 win team, he is exactly the kind of PG you need with all the jumpshooters we have/had at the time. Ford was my favourite Raptor we had at the time, ya him launching contested 18 footers at times was annoying but he got into the paint and got us so many open looks from downtown for AP and others. Also I miss Mo-Pete and Milt Palacio. On a side note, the day our season is pretty much announced over this is what you think about Salami and cheese will forever live on.

BC better work his magic at the draft and bring some [expletive]ing talent onto this team in one last hope to convince Bosh to stay. He has 12 million in expirings and a lotto pick to play with, get it done. I still think if we can manage to bring in a legitimate 2nd star or a borderline 20 point scorer at the draft we have a shot at bringing Bosh back, expirings seem to be the going rate for these types of players (Gasol, Jamison, Mo Williams etc), and we have Derozan and a lotto pick to add onto that, get something done please.
