The Most Overrated Team In The NBA - Rob Johnson
"Roy is averaging about 17ppg (compared to last seasons 28) Aldridge plays like he is scared to get hurt, he keeps settling for his 20 foot jumper or his baby hook that cannot find the bottom of the basket, Miller has played up to the standards that I was hoping for when the Blazers picked him up, but Miller and Roy somehow can't work together, and Oden.... Don't get me started on him, anyone can dominate and dunk on a team like the Grizzlies or the Timberwolves, but look at him when the Blazers play a physical or a scrappier team, he (Oden) can't do anything, he gets nevous or unconfident in himself and ends up fouling, commits a turnover or mishandles a pass."
I love how when someone writes a negative article they will go out of their way to exaggerate actual stats (notice roys apparent 28 ppg last year and 17 this year, it's actually 19.9 at this point) to make it favor them more.
Apparently the blazers are the most overrated team in the NBA.

Oh, It's Bleacher Report
That explains a lot.
look at the poll that is on the article... in the results: 89.7% Not at all the most overrated
but the poll is only out of 29 votes…
Rob Johnson needs to keep his day job. While I agree with some of what he is saying, that article is pretty tough to read.
dont use his name in print thats what he wants
if we didn’t link to his site that poll would have two votes his own and his wife

Even if you despise the Blazers..
such a comment is ridiculous. To the effect that it calls his credibility into question.
Who is Rob Johnson anyway?
An Oregonian in Texas.
You are implying Rob Johnson has credibilty. Judging by the qulity of that article, he has none.

Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
Stop picking on Rob Johnson!!!!
….
This is a retarded article. The author couldn’t even get his stats right. This article is so soaked with platitudes and “observations” that it should be a livejournal post, not a supposed “basketball article.” Stuff like this is what gives bloggers a bad name.

It wouldn’t of been that bad of an article but the fact that he had to exaggerate stats to make his point seem more legit removes all credibility and becomes bias.

when do oden haters start realizing how wrong they are?
sportscenter never really highlights when oden has amazing games like tonight, and we’re not on national tv much, so if he isn’t getting 25 and 15 in the box score will they ever know?
Frye-lock and I'm on top rock you like a cop
arent we top 5 for National TV Appearances?
Rip City Baby...People have no idea what is coming.
Follow my twitter www.twitter.com/PDXBlazersFTW, @PDXBlazersFTW. Lots of random Blazer Posts from links I find around the blogosphere.
doesn't count if no one watches

For those of you who don't know
Bleacher report is like a myspace for wannabe sports writers. Every now an then you find a good writer/article but most of them are fan based “hate” or “love” pieces. For the most part read with caution.
And this Pulitzer-worthy piece
is the first by Mr. Johnson. according to his profile:
http://bleacherreport.com/users/132673-Rob-Johnson
I always wondered what Rob did with his life after the Raiders let him go…..
BTW, the Blazers were supposed to be “competing to be the best in the West” and are 11-5, first in their division and one game behind Phoenix for the best record in the West. Meanwhile, wasn’t San Antonio supposed to also be “competing to be the best in the West”? And aren’t they 6-6 and tied with OKC for the 8th spot in the West? But the Blazers are the most disappointing team so far? Sure……
