Even the Portland Mercury is getting in on the Act

I read this in the print version on Friday, but thought it was pretty funny and worth passing along:

...His scoring line was modest, but the stark black and white of the following morning's box score failed to paint an accurate description of the sheer terror plastered upon the stunned mouth-breathing grill of Sacramento Kings center Spencer Hawes—a man who had the unfortunate task of being posterized by Oden repeatedly. What Hawes realized that night, and countless other lanky NBA players are about to witness: Oden doesn't score on you as much as he dunks over you, atop you, and when he so pleases, right through you...

Hilarious

Um, not quite. This team has loads of potential issues other than Oden's glass knee. Starting point guard Steve Blake resembles a ball boy, the newcomers are going to struggle with the grueling NBA schedule (and officiating), the Western Conference is unfairly stacked with talent, Martell Webster is one mental breakdown away from becoming a cutter, and if the team actually makes the playoffs, they have zero postseason experience (outside a handful of minutes from the early days in the careers of LaFrentz and Blake). Remember, this Blazers squad was the second youngest team ever last year, so these things take time.

Do they realize Webster is out for 2 months?

"The Raefist" I thought that was hilarious.

It's true, The Raefist is still on the roster, which means that the team is $12.7 million poorer than it should be—that is, until his salary comes off the books next season. What that means is no more Raef—sorry pal—at which time the Blazers will suddenly stumble into a windfall of cash to drop on platinum rims, gold fronts, fixing our economy, and most importantly, a hotshot free agent.
