where is durant going?
Oden and Durant both heading West.
Wow.
Seattle
Yup.
Portland is filled with talent.
Jack, Roy, Randolph, Aldridge, Oden.
Sonics?
Ridnour, Allen, Lewis?, Durant, Sene?
Wherever Oden doesn't.
Either Jailblazers or Sonics.
I can't believe it.
Time for realignment.
whyyyyy... I knowww
the EAST needs more depth.... This is severely lopsided. I thought the draft was designed to level things out!
so in 5 yrs we will be owned by portland,seattle,chicago,orlando...who else?
Boston is cursed or what ? Well, they got plenty of rings from the past, now they have to pay their 'due' as cellar dweller for another decade.![]()
Wow portland is gonna be a monster...
That will be one mutha of a division with Seattle and Portland and the rest unless seatlle moves to Oklahoma as rumored.
Seattle won't be moved next year. Maybe the year after.
As for the conference, they ought to consider realignment. This is just getting sad. But they won't until they know what is happening with Seattle.
Portland will be good, but most likely still a first round playoff exit as their young team adjusts and learns what playoff basketball is like.
You can't with luck. Just ask Celtics fans

Sad
I'm not too worried, the blazers wont be able to pay all those contracts, on top of the fact that the blazers managment handles their talent about as well as isaiah did with NY
hahahahahha first Duncan and now either Oden/Durant
Blazers have plenty of money to throw around once Miles is "waived". This Blazer management is not the Shawn Kemp, Scottie Pippen, Ruben Patterson management team.
Portland is good, they didn't beat San Antonio in the Garden this year, but there was an energy level that I haven't seen in Portland in quite some time (their last big playoff run).
If they get the right coach, Seattle and Portland make the playoffs.
Book it.
Golden State and Lakers fall out.
Not right away though they have missed the playoffs the last few years so just getting Oden is not going to make them a le contender right away. How Randolph plays with Oden is the biggest factor in how good they will be right away.
the lakers are going to do something drastic this postseason
Book it!
yeah, cause it's not like they gave Zach Randolph a max contract or something
I just want to read Simmon's reaction to this. Any news yet of spontaneous combustion?
Indeeed, I don't think they're gonna destroy the Spurs, but they're definitely gonna be a difficult team to beat now. They already matched up very well last season!
I don't really care about Randolph despite his stats. What I took away from those games they played against the Spurs last season is that the future of portland = Lamarcus Aldridge + Brandon Roy.
This team has the potential to be better than Golden state, the Lakers, and may be even houston. However, while it all looks good on paper, we do need to remember how Denver fared with its 2 super stars.
I agree. It's should be a good one!
As if the freaking West wasn't tough enough........Sux.
I hope they trade the picks to an Eastern team.
