    Via Oregon Live-
    The Dallas Mavericks' championship victory Sunday night triggered the start of a deadline for the Blazers to tender an $8.8 million qualifying offer to the soon-to-be free agent center. The Blazers, who did not extend an offer Monday, have until June 30 to do so.
     "I'm sure they're going to hold off doing anything until the end," said Mike Conley, Oden's agent.

    If the Blazers tender Oden, there are several ways they can retain him. They can sit back and gauge what the free agent market will be for the talented but injury-plagued 7-foot center and match any offer Oden receives. If interest is minimal, they can simply sign him to the one-year $8.8 million deal.
    They can also offer and sign Oden to a multiyear contract, gambling that the player who has played in just 82 games and endured three knee surgeries during his four-year career is destined for a long and healthy return. Oden, it seems, is open to a long-term return to Portland.

    "That would be fantastic," Conley said of a multiyear deal. "We would definitely be excited about that."

    Sign the big man to a multi year deal. He will proove his worth. (Put some knee pads on Greg) Next go after Dwight Howard as your starter and use Greg as the back up or rotate him to pf at times with Wallace and L-Train. Portland whould now asume the twin towers nickname with attitude!!! Lastly bring in M. Ellis for the outside/inside threat:)

    Noel will be fine he will need to thicken up which he should do. I fully expect to be built like Ibaka down the road, he won''t be thick enough to handle the low post against centers but he will still be a force on defense.

    Choice 1 = draft at #10 and draft Muhammad

    Choice 2 = trade #10 and our first second round pick for the #7 pick and draft Oladipo.

    choose one of the two.  My choice would be choice 2.

    The list of possibles assumes Oladipo does not fall below the top nine.  I agree that if he did the list would change and most responses would indicate him as the choice.

    Paul Allen might sell the Blazers but the Blazers will never leave Rip City.
