who's this lockout's Shawn Kemp and Vin Baker?

[retroblazers]

who do you think will be the player(s) that will come back from the lockout out of shape and never the same player as before?

here's hoping it's not raymond felton

 

[3RA1N1AC]

paul milsap

 

[Mediocre Man]

Judging by the presser yesterday, I am going to say Raymond Felton

Huh?

Felton looked fine in the Oregonian photo of his full body.

I'm guessing DeJuan Blair, although he was terrible to the point of being benched in the two Spur elimination games.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

blair is a decent bet... if it goes too long....mike miller

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Lamar Odom
OJ Mayo
Gilbert Arenas
Ron Artest
Michael Beasley
Baron Davis
Al Harrington
Corey Maggette
Kenyon Martin

[e_blazer]

Ron Artest? Do you mean Metta World Peace?

 

[Draco]

Andre Miller

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Hopefully Chris Johnson and Nic Batum...

 

[tlongII]

Andrew Bynum

 

[Rodolfo]

Uwe Blab

 

[PapaG]

Andre Miller

It's a contract year for both Miller and Felton, so I expect them both to be in reasonable shape.

 

[PapaG]

Hopefully Chris Johnson and Nic Batum...

Winner!

Somebody needs to take Chris Johnson to Five Guys 3 or 4 times a week, and Nic needs to start eating more ribeyes.

Apparently he's put on 15 lbs already. But based on this rather funny exchange, I'm skeptical.

Another Chris Johnson tidbit- he has put on 15 lbs. of muscle since the end of the season

@johnhollinger John Hollinger
In <2 months? Cue sound of me rolling eyes. @pdxtrailblazers Chris Johnson tidbit- he put on 15 lbs. of muscle since the end of the season

pdxtrailblazers Trail Blazers
@johnhollinger yeah, it's 15 pounds. no idea if it's muscle

Huh?

 

[retroblazers]

i think i could really see michael beasley get super lazy without structured training around him all the time. hopefully andrew bynum pulls a kemp this offseason, although i don't know if kobe would allow it to happen

Huh?

To be fair, it's part of the process: add bulk, then tone it.

 

[Minstrel]

Oden.

What is the sound of someone rolling his eyes?

 

[PapaG]

Something like this?

 

[maxiep]

Andrew Bynum

This. The dude will be Celtics Shaq if this lockout lasts until the All Star Break.

So, that puts him up to 185?

 

[maxiep]

Oden.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but I actually think GO is better prepared for a lockout in terms of exercising than almost any other player. First, he has a defined rehab schedule through December. Second, he's been working out on his own for a few years. Third, and most importantly, he hasn't been able to rely on hoops to keep him in shape; he's had to do it on his own.

Just being silly, based on the popular (among some) meme that Oden struggles with weight problems and how those people claim every picture shows him as morbidly obese.

 

[Eastoff]

Hopefully Chris Johnson and Nic Batum...

Out of shape != heavier/stronger

 

[B-Roy]

Big Baby, can't believe he hasn't been mentioned yet.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Big Baby, can't believe he hasn't been mentioned yet.

He started his lockout diet like a year early.

 

[PapaG]

You already wimped out of your FUCK FELTON signature?

Shit, I'll take 15lbs of fat. Its a start, right?

True sarcasm doesn't need green font.
