    Arthur was crap his first two years in the league, but he played pretty well for Memphis last year as a reserve.

    Oden was booed when they showed him on the big screen tonight. Completely classless act by the fans in my opinion.

    Yikes. Are you sure it wasn't just a coincidence with Rudy coming into the game?

    I hope to god they weren't booing Greg. Idiotic if true. What's next, booing a victim of a car crash on the way home?

    When the crowd doesn't discourage the classless 3% among them from booing Rudy, momentum builds and the 3% get into a booing mood.

    They were definitely booing Oden. I've never been more embarrassed to be a Blazer fan.

    I just read that in the game recap. Best fans in the NBA??? Nope, pathetic losers fill our stands

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap?gid=2012020422

    Many fans also booed a video image of Greg Oden, the former No. 1 overall draft pick who has not played since December 2009 because of knee injuries. Oden had arthroscopic surgery on Friday in Denver.

    I understand wishing they drafted Durant, but that's lame. Was it a lot of fans, or just a few idiots?

    I'm dissappointed that he's been injured, but I would never boo him.

    I don't blame Oden for this. I blame fans for holding on to unrealistic expectations for this long. Now they're finally coming back down to earth and they're taking out their anger on Greg. That's not fair. I think Greg is done, but I've had extremely low expectations for him since.... oh.... two years ago? People have been holding onto this dream like he's Jesus and his second coming will lead us to the promised land. Reality just punched Blazer fans in the gut and some of them don't like what they see.

    All oden has to do is play. Our fans will support him if they see he's making an effort to still be a blazer. What the fans did was embarrassing; but they've been fed the lame columns of quick and cansuckoff about him never playing a game as a blazer. I think the fan base is deeply frustrated in this situation.

    Well, it's from Canzano, so obviously it must be true.

    He is such an asshole. He is leading the charge of dumb ass fans that will boo Oden when his image shows up in the Rose Garden.
