Yeah, a bit.
Although I understood why they did it.
What sucks is the main reason they went for Oden was because they had Brandon Roy. Now? Both Oden & Roy are done. That sucks!

Well, at least we got LA until 2015. On paper, you can build a contender in less than three years.

Portland did everything right to become a contender. Drafted young talent, picked up wise veterans, injuries killed them.
A few years ago they were supposed to give the Lakers a run for the western conference. Never happened.

Who the fuck in they right mind would wanna play for that snooty ass indie hipster town anyways? Jesus. I'm surprised their fuckin' shorts don't have boot cut bell bottoms to look like "vintage" Neil Young or some shit. Christ.

But I'm pretty sure they got throwback Bill Walton jerseys. That town does have its rather douchey moments and shitty infrastructure, but it does have its perks.
