    With the recent trade, we, as a community, are fresh out of players to blame for all that ills and stands in the way of our beloved Blazers.

    I know we have a small group of Oden haters (he is no Durant, he is no Al Horford) and there is a growing dissent against Bandon Roy, he who does not stand in for the anthem. LMA and his soft rebounding is gaining ground for sure - but, still, as a community - I feel, we are still too divided.

    Now that Blake and Travis are no more we need to band together, united we hate!

    Enter your nominations below.

    There's quite a few Aldridge haters.

    I'm sticking with McMillan :)

    Second half of the season is coming. Aldridge usually plays much better the second half of the season. Plus I wouldn't be surpised to see the all star break rest do him some good.

    Re: Who to blame, who to blame?

    Arguments can be made for Jerryd never-gonna-be-a-point-guard Bayless, Martell some-people-think-I-still-have-potential-but-I-am-what-I-am Webster, and even Lamarcus wants-to-be-an-all-star-but-shrinks-in-crunch-time Aldridge. All of them will receive their share of scorn.

    However, I'm going with that skinny, soft, streaky, flopping Fernandez as the next object of our animosity.

    Out of the box thinking there, mate, and clearly - you have stood up and shouted, without being afraid in these oh so P.C. times - I AM A MAN, SEE ME ROAR.

    Nicely played.

    Re: Who to blame, who to blame?

    The coach is always a good scapegoat on any team.

    But really, I don't think I'll have one for a while. The team is what it is, one superstar (currently injured), some pretty good young players (a few who might turn into something special), a veteran center and PG who've wandered the league but are undeniably talented, and a franchise center who seems forever injured.

    Re: Who to blame, who to blame?

    The thread clearly talks about players - every team has people hating their head coach - there is only one of those. I do not need you to tell me some of you hate Nate. Duh.

    Sadly, though, should he choose to express his feelings towards Rudy at the Rose Garden, he will be dismembered by a mob of angry women. And men. Lots of crushing on Rudy in that place.

    Re: Who to blame, who to blame?

    I don't know - Camby is often injured and he is coming to a team blessed with medical people and trainers that go through big man like Charlie Sheen goes through wannabe Holywood actresses. It is more likely than not that we are on our way to another "Kpee" outburst for trading for this injury ridden center.

    LaMarcus Aldridge. Or LaMarshmellow like some person nicknamed him... I think he'll be the scapegoat now.

    I am in full agreement with this guy.

    LMA isn't out of the woods with me yet though.

    Hence why I choose to curse him from the safety of my living room. My wife doesn't dig the scruffy look, so she's not a huge fan of his either.

    You want out of the box? Here it is: I didn't blame Blake or Outlaw before, but I'm going to start blaming both of them.
