O.J. Mayo video

by raging WebTed on May 26, 2008 7:57 PM PDT

Here is an interesting video about OJ Mayo, to me it sounds like his problems are just way overblown, and are not that big of a deal. He would not be a bad apple, especialy if he came into such a good enviornment. To get him we would have to give up alot. he has been very highly regarded lately, but could he slip down a little, maybe to memphis or New York which could be good trading partners. If we got him i think we could run a fastbreaking team, and give everyone their points...But KP will have to decide if he is good enough...... In KP we trust.

great video

but lisa salters in the intro is full of it… oj mayo is no lebron james… never has been… the look on the guy’s face in response to her saying that is priceless and tells you everything you need to know.

Great video (the first one)

After watching it, I am twice as in love with his game, but about five times as disinterested in him due to the personal baggage he would bring.

Current team + Greg + Rudy = Blazers losing narrowly to the Spurs in the 2008-2009 Western Conference Finals. Book it.

I totally agree.

I mean, I guess we can’t always have class act’s (B.Roy, GO and LMA) but it would be nice to have someone without so much drama.

Beaver believer!

Sound like

OJ Mayo would do good being out of the spot light for a while, with out huge pressure on him. (Portland Trail Blazers ;)

Excellent videos

you can see that Ref flopping and it feels like a fair video. Ultimately Mayo is responsible for his destiny and you can also see how this kid needs a serious healthy mentor. I believe that the blazers can shape him to our culture and he’ll eat it up.

We need to trade Roy for him

I’ve been hanging out at the Bedge a long time and I learned that rookies solve all your team problems. Mayo is a leader, Roy is a leader and both are shooting guards. We don’t need three, since we already have Rudy, another rookie, so we must trade the experienced guy for a sure thing rookie.

I'm not sure what this post is dripping most of.

Sarcasm or cynicism. It would be much sweeter if it were dripping honey.

Mmm. Honey.

But that was just blatantly off topic.

Whoa

That was the secret ingredient the other day on Iron Chef America.

Iron Chef is a fun show to watch.

Except I can’t afford cable or satellite. I can’t hardly afford my rabbit-ears. Of course, since I pay for high-speed internet, I probably could find the episodes online. But that would take time away from writing posts on Blazers’ Edge, and I am already down to twenty-four hours a day. I just don’t think I could fit it in.

Hoh Cuz

Try this some day at a friend’s who has cable. You have to do it with the Japan show. My wife, and friend, and I, drank a 12 pack of beer in about 30 minutes playing that game. And we pretty much only drank each time Ota said "Fukui-san!"

I made a NBA Draft drinking game. I’ll post it here when we get closer to the draft.
