What about the players who we know will be back?

                  I have to say that other than the fact that the Blazers will not be playing for the next six months, the worst part of the off season (as fresh as it is) is the lack of thought provoking posts and/or questions that Bedge is known for.  I know, I know there are tons of trade/draft posts out there but I'm talking about the FACTUAL posts that so many of us became so reliant upon throughout the regular season.  I know who I think should be traded.  I know who I think should be acquired in the free agent signing period.  Even if I didn't already know these things, there are about 200 posts that would help me make up my mind.  But since we have no control over either of those situations, I'm offering a forum for people who want to talk about what "will be" instead of what "might be". 

                    I want all BE fans to come to terms with who we know will be here next season and then share their thoughts on what those core players can do with the very valuable six months ahead of them.  We have a few players who we know wont be traded, so that being said it is fair to say that "No speculation means no room for doubt".  So, what individual observations do you have considering the "un-tradables"?  What can they improve on?  Can we win a title based on their improvement alone?  Is their possible improvment enough to justify a possible quiet off season in tems of a lack of charactaristic KP concocted drastic draft day moves or blockbuster trades?

Once again, I'm not interested in who should be traded/drafted.  What I want to know is, "What is the best possible outcome of this offseason that we can expect from our non-expendibles?"
