I think that they could use a better pg, this team is going to be good and all their guys could benefit from an improvement at the point.

Draft Oden at 1, trade Randolph for Celtics 5th pick and draft Conley Jr.

Next to LeBron, Oden is the most talented player
to be in the draft in the past ten years. Yes you
pick Oden, what you do with randolph does not
matter, Oden will make you a winner right away.
Rookie of the Year, and will win at least 2 titles
before he is done.

Yes and yes. The Oden pick should be self-explanatory, and trading Randolph would free up money and get rid of one of the league's biggest head cases. Oden, Roy and Aldridge make for a formidable trio, and the old Jail Blazers image would be history.

yes because you have another young talent in aldridge who can also post and shoot. they could do a high low with oden and aldridge and oden will provide a great deal of defense. they already have a good young guard in roy but a solid pass first point guard is what many teams could use to become contenders. they need to work out a deal with atl to get conley or trade randolph to bulls for ben gordon and let roy handle the ball more even though he will be the 2
pg - ben gordon
sg - brandon roy
sf - outlaw or udoka or miles( they should trade miles too)
pf - lamarcus aldridge
c - Greg oden

After the 'Sheed Wallace fiasco... (well losing him to the Pistons never did them good but rather brought them down hill) the Blazers have been in a rebuilding mode. Randolph has brought them nowhere. Taking Oden alongside Aldridge and Roy would definitely give them youth and a lot of chips. I think its best to ship out Randolph and get better chips than stucking with him and suck.

id draft oden for sure and make a trade. portland is rumored to wanting to get conley to pair with oden and seeing how atlanta needs a PG badly. i think portland should make a trade like this:
zach randolph + jarrett jack (georgia tech guy) + filler or picks for atlantas #3 pick and take conley. you would then have a scary @ss lineup of
PG-conley
SG-roy
SF-outlaw
PF-aldridge
C-oden
that team would be set for years and would contend for years.

I'm from Columbus, so I'm biased. But if they can trade for Conley, it would be a stroke of genius. He's the best point gaurd in the draft, and he and Oden have been teammates since the 8th grade, so the chemistry is already there.

Z-Bo must go. his trade value is still pretty high, as he hasn't done anything too stupid yet to scare other teams off (a la Artest or S. Jackson). they could go play big by making Randolph a 4, but you're right about needing to improve at PG.

OF COURSE!!! even though i wont have the first pick i would be very happy to trade zach (suck) randolph. his the player who brings down the blazers! the team give respect on him trading away their players like rasheed to make this team his blazers but for me it just a worth less! no playoff appearance since the the trades. omg trade zach (suck) bring back jermaine oneal.
