Odd but this is why...
What I like about sports, is that every season unfolds in it's own unpredictable way. Some of it good, some of it bad. But it's always unpredictable... Odd but this is exactly why I don't pay too much attention to pre-season. So much expectation and strategy get's floated before the season unfolds and ALWAYS you never know what is going to happen. The only sure thing is that things are probably going to happen inwhich you would never think to prepare.

A Bitter, Bitter Pill
I never wanted to write this fanpost. I never wanted to have to say the things I'm about to say. But Blazer fans have a bitter pill to swallow, and like any medicine the quicker we swallow it, the better. This is about Greg Oden.

The Downside of reaching your Upside?
Is it too early for me to start obssesing about "problems" that might develop from The Blazers success? Is this just an interaction between Prilosec and daytime cold medicine? Yes probably but humor me a little if you would...

Agent 00-Trouble?
Ara Vartanian Millsaps' agent. Working for his clients best interest, or hinting at trouble. I leave it to you.

Death of a Pritch Man?
These have become unsettling times for Blazer fans. Unfortunately it seems we have a plurality of messages surrounding The Blazers. Right now at the eye of this summer storm we have Kevin Pritchard.

Dazed and Confused
Just got done reading Jason Quicks assesment of current events in regards to Pritchard and The Blazers this summer. As a fan, I'm shocked and becoming concerned.

Do I get it? Do I NOT get it?
I'd like to pose a few questions, and offer a few opinions. In light of Hedo Tukoglu's sudden "snubbing" of Portland for Toronto. One of the first specters to arise is the phrase " Portland can't attract top notch Free Agents". I've never believed that, and even with this unfolding with Hedo, I still don't. Here's why....

Asking Blazer Fans
How do we feel about Oden going to Ohio State this summer and evidently not being interested in playing in Vegas or attending a big mans camp? Is this OK with most of you or do most of you feel this is indicative of a potential problem? Without applying my opinion just wondered how many of you felt about Odens Summer Plans.

My Carefully Crafted Commentary on Oden
I wanted to wait until all was said and done before commenting on Oden. My evaluation of Oden at the conclusion of his rookie year would include this, I think Oden has the potential to become one of the top centers in the league, an All-Star. He has size, speed and strength that you simply cannot teach. I saw him do some amazing things this season, things only centers with the names Howard, Shaq and Yao can do. Unfortunately I also saw Oden do things guys with 10 day contracts who are struggling to just make it in the league do. It’s not that he draws fouls, it’s the way he continues to draw fouls that is a problem. He’s a monster 7ft’er that wants to guard guys in the paint like he’s Tony Parker. He tries to reach and finesse when all he has to do is "be". I think what is positive but also frustrating about Oden is his problems seem relatively easy to fix. I think this is a critical off-season for Oden. Of course he deserves some rest, maybe a lot of rest, and some fun....but I want to see what he chooses to do. He needs work and it will be telling to see if Oden commits to improvement OR simply shows up with the rest of the guys.
