This is a waste of time, but I'm alright with it as long as we don't have to give up any players to make it work.

If its a small one year contract I just don't see how anyone could complain about this move

If it doesn't work out then we don't have any cap space for 12 months on a team that we already probably weren't signing anyone else

And if it happens then Lance Thomas loses a bench spot

I'm trying to see the drawbacks to this move and I don't get it

The absolute worst thing that happens is he blows his knee out before he plays a minute and we lost a 2-3 million dollar bet and one roster spot for one season

Honestly I'd be fricking pissed if we traded Smith in some sort of a S&T just to take a risk on Oden

Even more pissed when Gordon and Oden are hanging out in suits together on the bench

Lance Thomas was a beast last night in summer league play. As much of a beast as you can be with the athleticism he was born with.

Damn, your reasoning and logic skills suck.

Hopefully that doesn't routinely come into play in your "career".

The guy below did these things since the taking of that picture. Maybe we should sign him.

Gifs aside, I feel that we, as an organization, are at a point in our building process that we can take a chance on a player like Greg Oden. I think that if he doesn't work out next year the overall win/loss record for this team will be unaffected. (or minimally affected)

No I just think you're to uneducated to understand the underlying point delivered in my message.

This is akin to me saying "If I could buy that powerball ticket and win millions of dollars, wow."


Not anymore. It seems like Demps is prepared to risk more than a roster spot and minimum contract which means he thinks there's something to be salvaged and he has access to a lot more information than we do.

And that's not worth taking a risk for Oden's potential for one year?

Seems pretty low risk/high reward to me
