This Could Go Down As One Of The Worst Blazer Drafts In Years

LaRue Martin

Greg Oden

This "someone" hasn't been paying attention.

Worse yet was 1977 Rich Laurel. Didn't even come to Fall Camp. Never played one game.

Just because you think something is one way, doesn't mean it is. Sometimes you need to listen to the collective experts out there who know what they are talking about when they differ with you. Martell may not be an All-Star, but we just lost our best defender from last year's playoffs. Batum will become a better defender, but during the playoffs this season, Martell was the best. Martell also shoots the three better than anyone on the team who takes a high volume of shots (Brandon, Martell and Bayless).

Go ahead and stand on you island and be defiant like a little bratty kid, but Hubie Brown and Doug Collins know more about basketball in their little pinkie than you do in all of your body. They both praised Martell for his Defense. And, Defense is 50% of basketball. That's why we chose Oden over Durant. Defense is that important to pass up a sure thing like Durant for the chance of getting a great defender which Oden may become.

There's some irony in there somewhere. I just can't quite put my finger on it. Oh well, I'll figure it out eventually.
