Chris Tomasson of NBA Fanhouse has a pair of pieces on former Portland Trail Blazers LaRue Martin. This lengthy profile is an interesting trip back through time while this piece includes Martin's advice for Blazers center Greg Oden and an offer to reach out to Oden if the Blazers are interested. --------------------------- "Just keep the faith and don't look back,'' Martin said. "He might think he's let down the public and the Portland Trail Blazers. But stay focused on your recovery and look forward.'' ... "Thank God he's in Portland. They've got a different kind of people out there. Very nice to me. They have a lot of sympathy for a person. Sometimes their patience wears out a little bit. But they're good people overall out there. ... But inside he's hurting pretty bad. He's at home crying sometimes. I did it.'' --------------------------- Do you agree or disagree with the idea that Oden is lucky to be in Portland instead of a larger market? Do you think Oden would agree? -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
