    DOes anyone else get a msg when they post that it's a duplicate and will send you to the original? I've been getting them the last couple days and have never got them before. I don't hit the send twice and I haven't just sent another msg so I don't know why I'm suddenly getting these msgs.

    LOL. Repped!

    Glad to see Oden continuing to bust his tail and Broy is there to push him. I can't wait for the season to start. I need something in this world that makes sense. Like an Oden two hand put back that leaves the basket shaking for a full 30 seconds.

    When that happens this year, I will squeal like a little girl, and my kids will laugh at me. I can't wait to see Oden progress this season.

    My only question with this is if LA's pending contract extension has anything to do with him not being there.

    It would be interesting, and favorable if he was going to the practices and simply watching. But I suppose relaxing/unwinding is part of that healing process too.

    Bayno kind of took over his job with the bigs last year already so I'm not too worried about it.

    Martell looking good. I'm telling ya, I have that feeling about him this year. I think he and Andre Miller are going to give this team a real shot in the arm.

    Probably. More than likely his agent is controlling the situation and telling him not to do anything until the contract details are finalized.

    Doing what an 11 years veteran should be doing -- taking it easy.

    According to him, he takes it easy every offseason, and has for years. Yet no playoff wins? Where is the sense of urgency? :dunno:

    I love that our guys get in there early. I really do. I think it's exactly the kind of mindset that wins championships. Michael Jordan didn't rest in the offseason either.

    He obviously never met Andre Miller.

    Andre Miller isn't the best player on our team. Jordan was the best player in the league.

    Yeah. Probably in part because he worked on his game in the offseason instead of taking it easy. :dunno:

    Yeah, but come on PG, Jordan was capable of playing well into his 40's. He was an anomaly. The guy was more machine than man. How can you compare anyone to Jordan?

    He's obviously just trying to bait you guys.

    Don't fall for it.

    Yeah, whatev.... it's all good. I think it's a legitimate gripe. I'd like to see Dre get into camp early to work with the guys, but it's hard to argue with a guy who has been as durable as Miller. Especially since he stepped his game up in the playoffs last season. Wasn't his fault they lost to Orlando.

    I would think Miller might like to start a little early just because he's new to this team. I'd think he'd want to get some extra playing time with his new teammates. I'm not putting him down for not showing up early, but am a little surprised.
