    recently broke two verterbrae. I think we end up targeting him in the draft this season. We're going to send a couple of scouts down these next two months to see how he looks in a suit.

    i wouldn't be surprised at all if turner ends up being the best player from this year's draft class.

    I believe this is refered to as a "giraffe fart."

    i'm not sure exactly his meaning with the question, but i wouldn't be surprised if oden is the best player from his draft class when their careers are over.

    We'd solve a lot of our problems with Turner.

    Like Roy at UW, he's probably the best all-around SG/SF in the country.

    Bayless/Roy/Rudy/Turner/Batum at the 1/2/3 of the future sounds good to me. Probably won't happen.

    Unlikely but not making the playoffs is a real possibility with our lack of depth.

    Anything is possible.

    Btw, Turner has great ball handling and even could play a little PG. He's more PG than Bayless will ever be.

    Wait....

    Are some of you actually suggesting the Blazers should draft a player with a *broken back*????
