I was just going to post this

What I like the most out of what I saw was his old personality shining back through. He had several of those witty responses and clever comments that GO was full of back before this season. I LOVED it!

I love GO

I don’t care what people say about him, and he shouldn’t either. He’s a softy off the court but a monster on the court. It just takes time for him to adjust after two consecutive injuries this season. I’m never going to give up on this guy. He is going to be averaging a double double. He’s still perfectly capable. Who cares if he doesn’t get rookie of the year. He’s going to win multiple championships with Portland. Roy Aldridge and Oden are the big three. And going to be the best big three in NBA history.

To Blazers: If an away crowd ever gets to you, remember there are at least 10 times more of us screaming our lungs out here in Portland rooting for you guys. Go Blazers!

I wont give up on GO

I think He’s gonna come around to be the perfect fit around Roy and Aldridge;-)

I think this is only a portion of the interview that will be showing on Sportscenter tonight.

great interview by oden

and i think hes right, once he matures a bit and has more confidence, he can easily average a double double. I dont know if he will ever be a monster on the court like a lot of people envisioned, but i think he will be at the least a solid player for the next decade, and a strong all defensive player and our rock in the middle.

GO still has "STAR" Tatooed on his forhead somewhere

He’s has a chance to be really special, people just need to give it time.

There won't be clean officiating in the NBA until David Stern is forcibly removed by the US Congress in 2013 for fixing games.

the greatest part of Greg Odens step trough dunk on Bynum

is that it came after about 5 minutes of the LA announcers saying Oden only has a weak jump hook in his arsenal.

Did anyone see this on Sportscenter?

If so, was is longer than the clip linked here, and is it available online?

Sorry I reposted this.

I didn’t see it. It’s a good interview, and I love how he took all the answers in stride. Except C-. I don’t agree with this at all. If this is a C- Oden, I can’t wait to see the B.

Regarding BRoy:"Another day, another buzzer-beater. This man is so clutch he sets his body clock to go off one second before his alarm does every morning."

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
