    Agree completely. Just have to watch Oden play when he's healthy and can tell he's the player to keep. I choose Oden big time!

    This is interesting to look back on. Looks like the Blazers made the right choice here.

    You really think we wouldn't have someone more reliable at SF by now?

    And just how would that have been accomplished. If you mean by picking him over Dame, well I got some swampland in Florida...

    True. I guess I should look back and bump a Mark Bryant or Ramon Ramos thread. We made the right choice there too

    Your words mean way more than the 7 rep points

    Actually, this thread is an excellent reminder. Ignore the hype and trust your eyes.

    This thread was before we knew Oden became a walking....limping knee injury. Oden at even close to his healthy play is light years better than Batum for any team.

    I agree, I also think there should be a number system (1-10) on how many rep points you can give.

    I think we should do that, BUT also do negative rep.

    I'd personally strive for the lowest rep points allowed.

    Untrue. Some of us were suggesting that Oden was injury prone long before 2010.

    Some people also suggest Leonard isnt a complete waste of a lottery pick too. Doesnt make it true.
