It Worked For San Antonio...
So Greg Oden looks to be out during the season. But before people become emerged in the "Is he Sam Bowie?" stories, let's look at the possible upside to all of this:
- The Portland Trailblazers officially sideline Oden in order for him to completely heal.
- The Trailblazers use who's left to play out the season, but end up stinking up the joint.
- At the end of the season, the Trailblazers get another high draft pick. If it's in the top five, they use it; if not they trade for a marque player.
- They make sure the coach they have is the one they want.
- The following season, they take the Western Conference by storm.
If sounds far-fetched, but it's happened before.
