I am so friggin pumped for the draft. I'm going to the Rose Garden (Blazer's arena) for our draft party. Then Friday, I'm going to the live introduction of our new players party. Should be good times.

Garnett could be going to the suns, while Amare to Atlanta :

Here's an update-KG is not going anywhere. The latest talk now is KG will once again with the T-Wolves.

not what I heard is the latest. Heard he was going to Phoenix.

The most recent talks with Phoenix didn't work out is what I just read because Atlanta's owner vetoed the trade because it would put them in the luxury tax.

Atlanta is also having major problems in the management area. The guy who vetoed bringing in Amare is getting kicked out of his seat unless he wins an appeal in court. Also, the owner wants Yi because he is marketable to China while the GM wants Horford because he is the better player.

In good news though: BLAZERS PROMISED ODEN! WOO!!!!!

Hopefully, Lakers sign O'Neil

Hey that was good news too. 😄 😄

hey myth, i take it you want oden in the rose garden? hasnt he been a little prone to injury or something? i do support the blazers a little, even tho the raptors are my team. gotta have an other conference team to support.... always wanted a blazers - raptors finals. maybe in a few years it'll be oden versus bosh?

Nah, we would win easily.

Hahaha.

Bargnani for the win!!!

The Raptors are going to be serious contenders sooner or later.

His only injury so far was that broken wrist, and how often have players consistently missed seasons because of wrist problems? Other than that, its things like them saying one leg is longer than another so he could get back problems, but that type of stuff is so common that its ridiculous that it gets mentioned in every other article. With that said, many are just as worried about Durant having injury problems because of being so thin. Muscle is often seen as the body armor of NBA players and Durant is going unprotected. I'm not saying Durant is going to get injured, I'm saying that Oden is no more injury prone than Durant in my opinion.

So yeah, I'm not too worried and hopefully we can have the Blazers beating the Raptors in the finals some day like you'd want 😉

Damnit I want KG in LA.

Well too bad! 😆

Then they are alone, because every other fan still likes him.

Joakim Noah!!!

Bulls really needed size, this was a good pick.

Noah looks like a freak tonight.

Noah has always looked like a freak.

Nick Young just got picked, but I wish we were able to get him. 🙁

I honestly don't know what we are going after in this draft because I just don't know this teams plans.

ETA: Looks like Portland just got Steve Francis...horrible move IMO.
