Oden eager to prove his value to Blazers

"This is going to be a big year," he said earlier this week before heading back to Portland to prepare for training camp. "Everybody comes in and has that first year, that get-used-to-the-league year. But you have to break out in your second year. You have to, and that's what I'm looking forward to."

exactly my thoughts.

Couldn’t really tell if he was paraphrasing Greg on that opinion or just broadcasting his own.

I've got to believe he's broadcasting his opinion

Greg loves Portland.

What's worse?

A player who is dampened by unfortunate injuries and wants to succeed or a player who is more fortunate with less injuries but shows no desire? I.e. Oden and Beasley.

hahaha

I prefer B Easy.

The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

Kings fan
