They have LaMarcus Aldridge and Brandon Roy from the last draft, they are getting Greg Oden this year, and they have Zach Randolph. They are young, but still can be good next season and the many seasons to come.

I think the Portland Trail Blazers will be the most improved team in the league next season with the addition of Greg Oden. This addition will allow young players like Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge to score points and take pressure off of Zach Randolph.

Of course they will be better,
u don't add a greg oden or kevin Durant and not get better
they question is whether they will be good enough to make the playoffs in a very competetive western Conference
I think they will battle the hornets for the 8th spot

I don't think that they are going to have Randolph next year as he will be traded in the off season, but yes they are going to be looking alot better next year. Not Denver good after Melo, and not Cleveland good when they got James, but they will win more games than last year.

Yes, but will still miss out on playoffs. Maybe a 40%-45% win rate, but only because of the lack of experience. Give them two years and they should be in the playoffs if everything goes there way injury wise.

They will be WAYYY better. If they take oden they have a dominant defensive center, true he will need time to adjust to the NBA style of play but he will have an impact. If they take durant they will have a high-profile scorer, but they don't need him, they have lots of scorers. if they take anyone else.... well then bye-bye playoffs.
