There's a lot of talent on this team and I want to see where everybody ranks the individual Blazers. It can be your own rankings based on whatever's important to you. Here's mine, and it's by no means definitive. My list is focused on the long-term, Championship potential of the team and my view of that players impact. I could see several players moving up and down. 1 and 2 are a lock though. 1) Oden 2) Roy 3) Batum 4) Outlaw 5) Bayless 6) Rudy 7) LMA 8) Blake 9) Pryzbilla 10) Kopenen 11) Webster
1) Roy 2) LMA 3) Bayless 4) Webster (Yes. Webster) 5) Oden 6) Przybilla 7) Blake 8) Rudy 9) Batum (I don't like him nearly as much as some of the other guys here) 10) Outlaw 11) Sergio
1) Roy- MVP 2) Oden- The Anchor 3) Rudy- 6th Man extraordinaire, hits the big shots in the playoffs 4) Webster- 3 point threat 5) Bayless- Psycho PG 6) LMA- Solid contributer 7) Pryz- best back C in the game 8) Batum- Potential 9) Blake- Vet PG presence
Right now I'm not much interested in Blazers of "tomorrowland," that kind of speculation is best reserved for the off-season (IMO). here's where I put them now in terms of "on court impact": 1) Roy 2) LMA 3) Przybilla 4) Blake 5) Outlaw 6) Jerryd 7) Oden 8) Rudy 10) Batum 11) Sergio Webster doesn't rate because he's not playing and who knows when he'll be back, Ike, Channing, and Shav are all irrelavant and Raef is nothing but $$$$ to me (hmmm, maybe I should have RLEC rated somewhere?)
1) Roy, Blake, Sergio, Oden, LMA, Travis, Rudy, Frye, Bayless, Joel, Webster, Batum 2) Shavlik, Diogu 3) Raef barfo
1) Oden 2) Roy 3) Aldridge 4) Bayless 5) Batum 6) Rudy 7) Outlaw 8) Webster 9) Pryzbilla 10) Blake 11) Rodriguez
I am actually. I just don't think he intends to stay and I've been very disappointed by his production and consistency this season. He hasn't improved like I thought he should have.
1) Roy 2) Oden 3) Aldridge 4) Bayless 5) Fernandez 6) Batum 7) Outlaw 8) Przybilla 9) Webster 10) Blake 11) Rodriguez 12) RLEC 13) Diogu 14) Frye I ranked them in inverse order of trade preference. That seemed like the best way to combine current and future value.
I think Batum is going to be huge for this team. When we are making our runs he's going to be our Bruce Bowen/Raja Bell.
what? besides that little cold stretch. he has been pretty consistent IMO. without looking at numbers
