Good article
It fairly accurately describes our position. If we can just get a deal done for a good center…
Faith applied reasonably is practical magic.

It'd be better
if he didn’t use Hoopshype’s salary numbers every year. I’ve tried emailing him links to better salary resources in years past, but he seems stuck on using them. So I’ve given up on trying to get him to use more accurate numbers….
I did learn something, though, from this article:
Greg Oden’s career with the Trailblazers has likely come to a close
I was not aware of that….
I think we will try to resign Oden on a deal that is favorable to the team (little risk with great reward).
"Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes, but no plans."
I appreciate the link
but the article kind of sucked. I really only agreed with him on the fact that we found a diamond in the rough with Wes $.
the rest was just poor speculation and things Blazer fans already knew.
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

Crap article...
Greg is should stay a Blazer especially now that he has extra time to heal. Funny, how they say Aldridge is the surprise out of the bunch… Didn’t he go #2 in the draft? I thought the higher you go in the draft, the better you are supposed to be…
Ignore that comment
Aldridge has proved himself worthy of his #2 pick position…
Oden should stay a Blazer due to his extended recovery time! He was the right pick and he will get us a championship when he returns healthy, if only for a season or two… If you read the (Find your true center) article re-posted by thankyouforblaze, you will think of Oden over and over again, and what he brings to the table.
Wes, Roy, Ray, and Patty give us a solid Back court going forward. The long range situation should be a distant memory next season…
Wallace earns his payday every time he steps up to the Artest’s of the world. Grit, hustle, talent. Need I say more? Oh yah, he is a small town guy to boot!
