    I don't think Oden ever had an injury history when we drafted him..? He had the wrist injury in college and still played well w/ his off hand. He was gonna be a beast.

    Wtf? Im just happy they are showing interest in the top options this summer. Doesnt mean I think we will get any of them. Would you be happier if we only targeted dj augustins and carl landrys?

    Gordon hasn't played more than 62 games since his rookie season.

    Any team that offers this guy big money is run by a moron. I guess that puts Portland in the mix, though. :sigh:

    At the track I'll go see shrimp cars at shrimp racing.

    After they get us to stop saying midget, shrimp is for the next generstion. 60 years from now, comes minnow and sardine. By 100 years from now, they won't let us say tiny, little, or small.

    Gordon is going to command a lot of money, this is not a bidding war I want to see the Blazers get caught up in.

    (Side note: anyone watch storage wars . . . watched about 6 of those episodes last night on demand. Somehow it sucked me in)

    Sounds like the Hornets have been sold to the owner of the Saints. With a real owner, I doubt Gordon goes anywhere now.

    Good for NO, but Gordon will demand a lot of money for someone as injured as he has been

    I am not interested.

    If the Blazers are determined to pay big bucks for a free agent this summer, they better meet these qualifications:

    1) No knee troubles. Fuck, haven't we had enough of this shit?
    2) Ironman for career so far. If you are overpaying for a player it is better to have - you know - on the floor.
    3) A true star player (Deron Williams is only one that is a free agent this summer)
    4) A 7 footer who can play. So rare. (Hibbert)
    5) An excellent PG who can set up other players.

    Shortish shooting guards with knee problems and inconsistent playing history DO NOT qualify on any account.

    Players like Gordon - who is a decent enough player - are the type that (in other years when there are few teams with big cap space) you wait out the fury and try to pluck on the reboud for a "bargain" price - ie, less than the obscene amounts decent free agents will get this summer.

    That's all it too to get rid of you? Dude, I have been laughing at the stories Mrs HCP tells me about your bedroom antics for years.
