    Sorry man, but that's pretty damn nerdy.

    i compare this to a guy who has no job telling his wife that "someday I will make loads of money and move you out of this trailer"

    she believes it.... 10 years later she lives in her moms basement. see the similarities? blazer fans relationship with Greg is some what abusive. if you need a translation.... greg is full of shit.

    So what do you propose, we trade him? Cut him? Just bash him daily? Bash those that like him?

    Yes, yes I do.

    But when he hits us, he doesn't mean it. He's just got his own frustrations. He's lost his job, life hasn't turned out the way he thought...

    So are you our supportive aunt, telling us he's no good for us, that he'll never change?

    Earlier in the off-season, MIXUM listed as a concern that the Trail Blazers hadn't signed Oden to a long-term contract yet.

    So, in the end, he can't quit Oden either.

    oden isnt a bad center. infact i will take him at a decent price. my biggest issue with oden is his health. i dont believe he will ever be healthy enough to matter.

    Maybe not. But what option is there with him. You're mad we don't have him signed long term. Do you just let him walk after the season? Do you trade him at his lowest value? There's many teams looking for Cs. Being one of them doesn't make us the exception.

    LMAO, I didn't vote for Obama and loathe this admin, but that's ridiculous.

    Back on topic, I can't wait to see Oden back on the court!
