Getting Bayless was a major move for the Blazers. He is a scorer, but also a great defender with a lot of energy and natural talent. But what many people are forgetting is how young the Blazers really are, and I think expecting too much too soon. Greg Oden will need to learn a lot this year and in years to come. And so will Jarred Bayless. But the real Portland Trail Blazer fans will be cheering them on regardless of this year's results. We have a great team of young men with so much talent and a great coaching staff, management and ownership. Kevin Prichard, Paul Allen and coach Nate and all of our great scouts have selected some really good draft choices thesae past few years and we now have some real solid young men that are a source of pride to our small city. Martell Webster, Travis Outlaw, Brandon Roy, Lamarcus Aldridge, Greg Oden, Rudy Fernandez, and now Jarred Bayless. And do not forget our other Spanish guard Sergio as he will also really come of age this year by the side of his friend Rudy Fernadez. These are our net draft choices the past 3 years. It will be well worth the wait and a lot of fun watching our young team come together under a great coach like Nate McMillan. The Pacific Northwest will be cheering for Jarred Bayless to really show the NBA what he can do. But he will not even start for now as Steve Blake is the starting point. Jarred needs to understand that Brandon Roy is the leaqder of the Trail Blazers and that he needs to work with Brandon to fit in and become a great guard tandem for many years to come.

KP/team are so good. They had it figured that the sixth guard would fall to #11 and pre-arranged the trade for Rush/Jack. Portland luck's out that the best Italian restaurants are in NY, Love lost a few pounds, Alexander moved up, and Bayless fell into their lap. Great fit for need and top caliber talent from a #13 pick. Thank you indiana. Other Post/Point pairs to compare to Oden and Baylesss? Envision developing together for a few years. Nightmare! #15: Yes, I smell a floor leader. He will push Oden and those two will WORK to get the timing down. Controlled toughness will be a very good quality to infuse in a winning mentality. On the other side of the court LaMarcus and Roy. Not fair! & Webster Outlaw Fernandez sitting on 3s. Plus Solid bench. This team is built; free agent optional. The last team anyone will want to see in the playoffs... and they will be so for more, sooner, than most people project. This is gonna be fun to watch!!! Thanks for the insight into Bayless.

Imagine a 7ft 280lb 40"vert killer on the court. That will be an unstoppable force. I hope his assassin mentality rubs off on Greg Oden. Imagine a 7ft 280lb 40″vert killer on the court.

And getting Diogu along with him was a nice addition. I have a feeling that Bayless is going to get good run, even under McMillan. That makes 3 impactful rookies on the roster for Portland, say it with me, "Oden, Rudy, Bayless." This kid has the toughness that the Blazers could use a bit more of.

He shows good mental toughness, and professionalism that hardly exists anymore. He sounds like a tenacious kid with a lot of class. I love this kid.

Great pickup by the blazers. They changed their reputation from when bonzi and rasheed were there now that they got a solid core there with roy and oden, and now him.
