if portland drafts oden, will lamarcus be a bench player?

Question

i think the blazers will draft oden because he's too good to pass on. If the blazers draft oden, will lamarcus aldridge be a bench player? Or will they let aldridge, randolph, and oden start?

Answer 1

No he will be traded.

Answer 2

Aldridge and Oden will start, Randolph on the bench, if he isnt traded. the Blazers brass has no loyalty to Randolph, whos been Portlands best player since Darius Miles was good.

C Greg Oden
F LaMarcus Aldridge
SF Martell Webster
SG Brandon Roy
PG Jarrett Jack
very young team

Answer 3

i think the blazers are going to ship randolph out of there mostly because he is one of the original memebers of the "jail blazers" and the team is trying to improve its image with guys like brandon roy and lamarcus aldridge. With oden on board the front court is going to be too crowded and the blazers are looking to build around youth so look for them to start aldridge next to oden and trade randolph

Answer 4

They will trade Lamarcus Aldridge.. From what I hear they are in talks with the San Antonio Spurs as of this moment.. The trade offer is Aldridge and Brandon Roy to the Spurs for Tony Parker and Beno Udrih.. I think the trade makes the most sense for both teams

Answer 5

No, they will start together at the 4 and 5. The Blazers are trying to deal away Zach Randolph for another draft pick, presumably to take Mike Conley. I think their last weakness would be at SF where Darius Miles would probably start. If they do get another pick and can't get Conley, I think that Corey Brewer, Al Thornton, Jeff Green or Julian Wright would all fit in nicely, and fill up the Blazers' starting lineup.

Answer 6

nope.. they will try and trade Randolph away, and save some money.

Aldridge and Oden on the inside, would be amazing..

Answer 7

No they will move him to the PF position and play with Twin Towers on the inside. No other team in the league can play like that.
