I really appreciate your sentiments. I have no idea what to think right now, I’m somewhere in between wishing Greg the best because he’s such a nice guy, and thinking we should have drafted Durant and avoided the curse of Sam Bowie. I’ve lived in Portland my whole life, huge Blazers fan, but I had to work at a club tonight and didn’t even know Oden got hurt until late last night. I got home late, went straight to blazersedge, and your fanpost was the first thing I saw.

Thank you. I have to admit, if Carmelo was out for the season in a freak accident, going over to the Nuggets blog and posting a “best wishes” would have been the last thing on my mind. Blazer fans are already hurting for a rival since the Sonics are dead, and the Lakers are the Yankees of the NBA, robbing Memphis of Gasol and spending whatever they feel like on luxury tax, and every Blazers-Nuggets game since Billups came on board has been awesome. You’ve shown a lot of compassion, and as much as I despise the Nuggets in general, especially Chris Birdman Birdenson and his stupid Bird tattoos, I hope you guys beat the smurfing L*kers this year. Then in 2010-11 it’ll be Oden’s turn. :)

Peace.
