Oh I don't know. Oden, Jefferson, Pierce, Rondo, Perkins, and very likely Gasol doesn't seem that bad even with Oden's injury problems. certainly would have given the C's a much longer window
Pierce wouldnt be here. He quietly told danny that if it was rebuilding time (which using the draft pick would have signaled) that he wanted to be traded.
also, its not like oden has had one freak injury.
in HS, he got dinged up often according to reports.
then at ohio st, BAM, wrist
then the knee
now the foot.
hsi total play time in the last 3 years is 30 NCAA games and 12 minutes of NBA basketball. how would that have incresed our window so far?
So far, Oden= Yao light. all the injury problems of yao and half the offense.
If you draft Oden and then trade Ratliff and some picks for Gasol, are you really rebuilding?
