Something is rotten in Portland

[eacioban]

Once is chance, twice is coincidence, third time is a pattern: Oden, Przybilla, Pendergraph.
Every player in the past two years designated to play the center position ended up with a season ending injury - namely a knee injury. Even without adding up Camby's injury, you end up with a conclusion that this is not just fate. It is true that knee injuries are not rare, but having three centers in your team suffering them in two years most alert someone. I wonder if it can be related to team trainings, doctors or maybe even the weather...

Discuss... maybe we have some Oregoners here knowing something that the rest of us don't...

I thought it was well documented as karma for them trying **** the Jazz over constantly.

It probably has something to do with the Bermuda Triangle, but can't say for sure.

Quick...let's offer them Fesenko for a 1st-rounder. See if they bite.

Late 1st rounders are pretty much worthless anymore. They would do that in a minute.

If the Jazz can get a 1st rounder for Fesenko, the Jazz have to go after it. Why?

1. If Fesenko has a good season, he's gone.
2. If he sucks, he's probably done.
3. The Jazz basically have no (tradeable) assets right now. They traded three 1st rounders, a 2nd rounder, and Boozer for Jefferson (basically) and burned the vaunted NY pick on a player I don't think is going to be that good. Any pick they can acquire right now is something they should look at.

Crap Blazers just waived Pendergraph and thanked him.... what a **** of an organization waive a young injured player that was supposed to be a starter?
The signed Oberto instead... I wish him luck but I also hope he gets injured too, just to annoy the GM...

LOL @ the consistently terrible and fully inaccurate use of 'karma' on this forum.

I thought their waiving of Pendergraph was totally classless and if the franchise were in Idaho would be illegal. (Work comp law violation). I know the contract was non-guaranteed but the right thing to do was keep him and let him rehab and let him try it again when he's recovered. He was in their plans but not now.

This is UNBELIEVABLE!

Blazers C Oberto retires because of heart problems

The Blazers curse is on! This is what you deserve Portland... stop messing with Jazz players or else...

Center be warned - do not play for this team unless you wish to end you career...

The Blazers sign Sean Marks... I don't give him more than 4 weeks until he is out for the season.
Why players still willing to take the chance in Portland is beyond me...

Could you please put a curse on Kobe?

Thanks.
