    Maybe so, but as the championship gets decided out west, you'll still lose to the Spurs for the next few years.

    Lots of talent. One problem might be paying all of them. They're all about the same age, and all of their rookie contracts will end in about a 3 year period. Keeping the ones that end a little later might be difficult, especially if you consider some of them might want to become stars of their own team (any of them not named Oden and Roy who they'll likely build around). Jarret Jack might want to jet, same with guys like Aldridge and Martell Webster. Channing Frye might want to get a chance to start somewhere.

    Paul Allen obviously has the resources and willingness to spend money, but it may come down to the players wanting their big payday to also include a better situation where they can shine, just like Joe Johnson leaving the Suns.

    But, there's no doubt about it, they have a lot of great, young talent.

    Funny...coming from the guy whose team traded away/gave away/ kicked away draft picks in a deep draft, no real tradeable assets, at least 2 bad contracts and a GM who moves like a lumbering barge... I'd worry more about what's gonna happen to your team before criticizing the 'old' Spurs who just. swept. your. team.

    Realistically, the odds are that only about 50% of those guys will pan out to near-expectations. That's still pretty good. The question is going to be who will step up as a team leader, and whether McMillan has what it takes to get them to a championship.

    I'm extremely impressed with the Blazers. That city deserves a good team finally. They have players that could be all-stars soon. Martell Webster, Jarret Jack, LaMarcus Aldrige, Greg Oden, Brandon Roy, Travis Outlaw, Rudy Fernandez, Channing Frye, and not to mention their foreign prospects and role players. Getting Frye was a great move for them because he can back up Aldrige and Pryzbilla (unless he is moved) can play behind Oden.

    This team, if kept in tact, managed well, and develops good chemistry will be a nightmare in 2 or 3 years. It's just a shame that Darius Miles is a little and won't play a team game there.

    Has anyone started a bandwagon to get Travis Outlaw into a Spurs uniform? Splitter for Outlaw straight-up seems about right, provided the front office can work the $$$.

    Hey and your team got back swept as well...

    Four straight losses after leading 2-0.


    Fact of the matter is both the Spurs and Pistons are done!

    Well, we have an inept front office molded by example (Spurs' example)

    Who knows it hard to predict. I mean look at how long Malone and Stockton played together. Both players are top 5 ever at their position and they only made the finals twice.

    Pistons are done even they were telling you guys that you were about to get your asses kicked by us. Dumb ass Cavs fans and some of the media convinced themselves you beat the Pistons of 04 and 05 they are a s of what they were then. Those Piston teams would have manhandled you guys. Spurs are still as good as they were in 05, maybe better Pistons are not.

    Greg Oden couldn't win the NCAA championship and you are expecting him to come into the NBA and instantly give his franchise 10 rings? That's ridiculous. I'd like to see a team of rookies and sop res win the NBA le. I really would. Greg Oden was on a really good Ohio State team and he couldn't beat the Gators because they had great players who all came back committed to win another le, and the right coach to lead them there.

    Funny how the 07 Gators sound a lot like the San Antonio Spurs.

    The Blazers have the potential to be a dominant team, and a team that can win championships, but not while the Spurs, Mavs, and Suns are still competing with their current lineups. We should bump this thread at the All Star Break and see who was tripping and who wasn't.

    The difference between Duncan and Oden is that Duncan came into a team with solid veterans and a great role model to follow in David. The Blazers are rebuilding around Oden, and they have good talent with Roy and Aldridge, but that team is very young. The Spurs just SWEPT the youngest average-aged team in the NBA Finals, and arguably one of the best if not the best young talents in Lebron James. You expect a team full of rooks and 2nd year players to challenge for TEN NBA rings in the near future? Please. The Western Conference will continue to run through San Antonio until #21 is hanging in the rafters at the AT&T center alongside our seven NBA championship banners.
