It wouldn't be a stretch if these two teams squared off in Round 1 in the playoffs at the 1 vs 8 matchup.
I'm immediately going to make a wallpaper if a fight between ariza and artest happens with Kobe trying to come in between them LOL That would be hilarious...
Will the rockets even make the playoffs? (Lakers, Denver, San Antonio, Portland, Phx, Dallas, Utah, New Orleans are the top 8 IMO)
For now, Oden is still very young and raw offensively. Honestly, I think the majority of Blazers' fans are overhyping him and expecting way too much out of him right now. I know Nate isn't utilizing him properly according to a lot of you guys, but do you honestly think if given the chances, Oden could dominate on offense right now?
Oden will NEVER be a good offensive player. His ceiling is Mutombo...and even that is becoming suspect. It is hard to tell if the kid is dumb/uncoachable, or if he just doesn't want it. I lean to the latter view.
I take it you're not popular with most of the Blazers' board then. to you for your level headed opinion.
