There is smoke in the air, wafting through the breeze could it be- oh please say NO- please! The Potland Tribune Kerry Eggars reports that perhaps the Blazers are bluffing talking Greg Oden over Durrant. Say it ain't so...

It is his opinion after talking with the Blazer GM Kevin Pritchard that "the Blazers may decide that Durant, a small forward who reminds NBA aficionados of Tracy McGrady, has a Jordanesque quality they can’t pass by." he later adds of Pritchard, that "Pritchard wouldn’t confirm it, but I’m assuming he considers Durant the high-risk/high-return player, Oden the lower-risk player with perhaps not quite as much upside. Then Pritchard was asked if he’s inclined to take risks or surer things." When cornered and asked his opinion by the writer, “Normally, I like the higher risk,” the Portland GM answered. “I’m a high-risk person. Sometimes to get to the championship level, you have to take big risks.”

What?

I too think that the running game of LMA and Roy, along with Outlaw and Sergio can be a title team for contention with the ability to kick the ball out to Durrant for the three. Or run a more effective pick and roll with the Texan who would be playing once again with his old teamate from the University. Chemistry cant fail, it is a naturally developing phenomenon the result of two or more elements coming together and the reaction that ensues.

Bring Zbo off the bench to play the low post game and destroy the oppositions' second string for his 20/10 per game.

Pritchard added in closing... “It’s on all of our shoulders,” he says. “But when somebody’s pointing a gun at one person, it will come down to me.” What do you think?
