Yeah.. his mental state just has to not be very good right now. I do feel sorry for G.O. ... and being constantly reminded of Bowie ever since he was drafted, and having it come to life.
it probably won't after next summer. the entire framework for rookie contracts is one of the things i see changing.
I'm gonna need several glasses of whiskey and egg nog tonight. Another reminder you can watch the press conference at 9:00pm at www.trailblazers.tv
What the hell kind of site is this where a moderator acts like that? What have I found here in my search for a Blazer forum. If that's what the moderators are like, I think I'll find another one.
why not? really were gonna be in luxury tax for the next while here if we extend him for a year or two whats it going to hurt other than paul allens pocket? im bummed for oden, not really shocked either though. but if you cut him you lose potential yes its hurt potential but what else are you gonna do with a roster spot? you cant sign anyone significant right? or am i wrong in assuming that were effed in the luxury tax department?
Sorry about that, but GTFO off our board. Also, for the "Durant" trolls: "Face it: No GM has the testicular fortitude to pass up a potential superstar center, not even for someone as potentially game-changing as Durant. If you want to compete from now until 2020, take Oden. Simple." http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/070622
Blow it up, keep Nic, Armon and Lamarcus, trade who you can for draft picks and expiring contracts and start over. I know that sounds dramatic, but I really do think this team needs a reset.

Greg is very very young, if hes going to get microfracture THIS IS THE TIME TO GET IT! The younger you are when you get mircrofracture the more successful the surgery. Worked great on his right knee why the hell do you think hes doing it? He knows it works. This is not a career ending surgery.There is no reason to think he wont return stronger with less pain just like his right knee microfracture. Anyone saying there done and want oden gone is not thinking straight. Greg is only 22, hes going to have a year to recover and will be hungry. If u let him go now your taking the risk of him having 10+ good years playing ball somewhere else. Get well Greg..
It's like some kind of anti-Christmas, where we've already peeked at our rotting, flea-ridden presents!
