| They clearly aren't the same team..... They were #1 in offensive efficiency last year...not so much this year..
Roy and Miller aren't getting along... As Roy is apparently demanding the coaches to play Steve Blake with him.....and not Miller
Oden is out for the season.... Which is a loss since he was a pretty good force on the defensive side.... Oden's season is done though....(and no, he isn't coming back for the playoffs)
Now Joel Pryzbilla is out as well... Who's gonna guard the paint now? And based on the injuries he got....he'll probably be out for a long stretch...if not the whole season.. He might come back for the playoffs though...
But the question is. Will they even make the playoffs? I think they will...but I doubt they'll go far... | |

| Roy should be stepping up to the plate instead of complaining about Miller.
As for the season i still think they can make the playoffs, but yea with their isues they wont go far | |

| They're a first-round exit team fosho...
got no playoff experience, no decent Center even when healthy, and lastly their team chemistry isn't even close to what it used to be. | |

| Yeah,we're
I mean,what should i say more.Obviosly Aldridge is going to have his career best season on the rise and will probably averge 20/10,Roy will step up and i hope for the best but we really miss some players like Oden,Batum,Outlaw and Przylia
Greg was our best defensive player,he put works on defense,boards and blocked shots while shooting high field goal procent and showing some offensive skills.I hope he'll be healthy for the playoffs
Batum is another lost.He's the best defender on the perimeter
Przylia,sub-center for Greg
Mills,rookie that waits his minutes
When Oden and Batum come back,we'll be better. | |

| Aldridge will not average 20/10 this year.....
He's averaging 7.7 rebs per game.... He won't get more than 9 rebs a game.. Its too late for him to make up to get 10 rebs per game... | |

| Yeah, they're turrible now. They need something to spark them after losing Oden. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to make a big move to get back on track. They still have talent, but they're starting to lag behind. | |

| Pretty much. And by "pretty much" I mean what Khai said.
However, I wouldn't be surprised if they dangled Andre Miller and someone for a solid center before the trade deadline. They must know that they're not close to a contender now, so I think they'll make some kind of move in the hopes of shaking things up. Say, Miller/someone for Drew Gooden on the Mavs (bad example, but something along those lines). | |

| Hmmm...Andre Miller and Travis Outlaw for Marcus Camby, perhaps...? Blazers get the short-term center help they need/a defensive presence, Clips solve their forward/center logjam and get Outlaw's expiring contract/backup for Baron... EDIT: Hey, it worked in the Trade Machine! Although both teams are projected to lose wins, I don't think the Trade Machine factors in that both Oden and Pryzbilla are out lol...

That is depressing, lol. Hey, look on the bright side, SRF...Jefferson had 18 points. Maybe he's finally finding his groove. | |

| I always liked Jerryd Bayless. I thought he would be great in his rookie year. It's nice to see him finally showing his potential | |
