    really good. I wish he would've been a Blazer for 15 years or so. We would've been pretty good with him on the team, I think.

    Greg Oden is on the brink of retirement and has talked trash about the city as soon as he was out.

    But back to the topic -- KD is the best player in the League.

    A list of things that young black rich injured NBA players can do in Portland.

    1. Play tennis with Quick.
    2. Play checkers with HCP.
    3. Go to strip clubs.
    4. Get stoned with teammates.
    5. Have guests over and drink.
    6. Admit to the media that Portland doesn't swing.

    A no-win situation. Oden chose 5 and 6. And 2.

    7. Rehab, live clean, and get back on the court.

    Oden fucked up his own career.

    Still Lebron. When KD can effect every aspect of the game at an elite level then he could challenge LBJ, tell then its LBJ hands down on a pinnacle all his own.

    What did KP say? "One will win scoring titles, one will win titles." Little did we know that the same guy might be the answer to both proclamations.

    LeBron is one of the 5 greatest players ever for the first 46 minutes of a game. The last two minutes, he's one of the last guys I'd want to have the ball in his hands. His confidence is shattered at this point.

    Walton was depressed while he missed a couple of years, but he made a comeback and Oden can't.

    Now, what was the difference?

    KP also labeled one of those two guys an "assassin" and then drafted the other one. Just for that, I hate KP.

    KP didn't have a choice. He made it clear that he preferred KD. You, Every other fan and their mut wanted Oden. So they went with the popular choice.

    I forgot just how much of a monster T-Mac was at the same age:

    32.1 PPG | 6.5 RPG | 5.5 APG | 30.3 PER

    But TMac STILL hasn't been out of the first round and Durant is on the verge of being in the WCF for the second straight year.

    When we won the lottery, my very first thought was "We'll blow this. If we pick Oden, he'll get hurt and it will be MJ/Bowie all over again." It was my FIRST thought. I still wanted to draft Oden but I was very worried.
