what other young centers are out there Emeke Okafor? since we are on the rebuild lets send al harrington and stephen jackson over to portland for steve blake, joel przybilla, and greg oden. i know how that sounds but oden could still be great. and harrington and jackson aren't so hot without BD. so lets play the youngsters Oden AR & B Wright Ellis and blake until we get a legit PG or play Ellis at the 1 and petries at the 2. we also can offer josh smith too much money to turn down and trade AR with the rest of them. we cant contend for a playoff spot in the west any way until the spurs suns and mavs fall off, so maybe we can win the lotto next season and get a pg or go after (i'm trying not to say kirk hinrick) go after felton and okafor in a package deal.

greg oden is more attainable than okafor. and we all know we could use him. can oden restore our hope is the question.
