30 Teams, 30 Days: Portland Draft Preview
Authored by Jason M. Williams - June 22, 2009 - 4:02 pm
Pre-Draft 2009-10 Projected Starters:
PG Steve Blake
SG Brandon Roy
SF Nicolas Batum
PF LaMarcus Aldridge
C Greg Oden
Key Reserves:
PG Jerryd Bayless
SG Rudy Fernandez
SF Travis Outlaw
SF Martell Webster
C Joel Przybilla
What The Blazers Do Well:
The Blazers potentially have one of the best big 3's in the NBA in Brandon
Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Oden, plus more depth than any other team in
the league. Roy became an All-Star in 2008 and a legitimate superstar in
2009, giving Portland one of the best scorers off the dribble in the NBA.
Portland had three rookies in Oden, Fernandez and Batum, who played heavy
minutes on a team that is clearly ahead of schedule by winning 54 games.
Portland led the NBA in offensive efficiency, with 113.9 points per 100
possessions. Defensively they were ranked 13th, which surely will trend
upwards as Oden learns how to stay on the floor for longer spurts without
fouling.
Greatest Areas Of Improvement:
More toughness in the frontcourt
Despite great offensive efficiency, the Blazers didn't have a pitbull that
can tough out easy scores down low. Aldridge is a finesse power forward and
their small forwards are more perimeter oriented.
Consolidation of depth
The Blazers have more talent than they have playing time and should look to
move some of their B+ players for one great A player, preferably at point
guard. With Outlaw, Webster and Batum, the small forward position can be
downsized. This is the likely reason why Portland won't hold onto the 24th
pick.
Who's Gone Number 24th Recently?
We still need to see what Serge Ibaka will eventually bring in the NBA, but
the other four players at 24 have all been fairly solid pros, with West and
Fernandez having the potential to be key cogs on championship contenders.
2008
Serge Ibaka, Seattle Supersonics
2007
Rudy Fernandez, Phoenix Suns
2006
Kyle Lowry, Memphis Grizzlies
2005
Luther Head, Houston Rockets
2004
Delonte West, Boston Celtics
Who Should The Blazers Target?
- DeJuan Summers of Georgetown
Summers has enough size and skill to play either forward position and has a
very good inside/outside game. Unlike the lengthy wings of Portland, Summers
will scrap with just about anyone.
- Tyler Hansbrough of North Carolina
The Blazers are solid in the paint, but Hansbrough will put his body on the
line so guys like LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Oden doesn’t necessarily have
to.
Picks Over the Past Five Years
Portland has drafted extremely well in recent years, aside from perhaps
Martell Webster and Sebastian Telfair in the 2005 and 2004, respectively.
They'll use their five selections wisely, probably to add toughness and
increase their already astounding depth.
2008
Brandon Rush, 13th (traded to Indiana)
Joey Dorsey, 33rd (traded to Houston)
Omer Asik, 36th (traded to Chicago)
Mike Taylor, 55th (traded to L.A. Clippers)
2007
Greg Oden, 1st
Josh McRoberts, 37th
Derrick Byars, 42nd (traded to Philadelphia)
Taurean Green, 52nd
Demetris Nicols, 53rd (traded to New York)
2006
Tyrus Thomas, 4th (traded to Chicago)
Joel Freeland, 30th
James White, 31st (traded to Indiana)
2005
Martell Webster, 6th
Jarrett Jack, 22nd
Ricky Sanchez, 35th
2004
Sebastian Telfair, 13th
Viktor Khryapa, 22nd
Sergei Monia, 23rd
Ha Seung-Jin, 46th
Who Do the Fans Want?
According to Andrew Perna’s Portland Trail Blazers Draft Summit, an
interactive forum featuring the responses of true RealGM hoops fans hoping to
add their two cents to the Blazers draft discussion, the fans of Portland
have made it known that they would like to draft a backup power forward.
The Verdicts
1. What could the team have done differently to advance further in the
playoffs?
JD45: If they added a veteran point guard with more ability than Steve Blake.
ptown08: I don't think there was realistically much of a chance to beat
Houston. If it were to happen, the consistency of the bench players needed to
rise (Travis Outlaw, Rudy Fernandez).
Jsun947: They need to be more consistent offensively and defensively.
Twith: If we found a time machine and jumped a year or two into the future,
or sabotaged some games towards the end of the season to end up with a better
matchup than the Rockets.
BballFanAddict: If they used Raef LaFrentz's expiring contract to upgrade the
starting point guard/small forward position before the deadline.
Oden2: Kevin Pritchard could've gone after a veteran point guard at the
deadline like Andre Miller. Portland did well, but having Blake at point
guard really hurt them in the playoffs.
Caravaggio: They should have moved LaFrentz for John Salmons.
TheRipCityGuru: If they played anyone other than the Rockets in the first
round.
BBen: If they stopped switching screens, pressured the ball, established a
post presence, and rebounded better against Houston.
BonziWellsPDX: If they avoided the Rockets.
2. Where were the team’s biggest strengths?
JD45: The two-guard spot with Brandon Roy and Fernandez, power forward with
LaMarcus Aldridge and center with Greg Oden and Joel Przybilla
ptown08: Their biggest strength was the ability to mesh very well together.
Jsun947: Rebounding, offensive efficiency, three point shooting and depth.
Twith: Rebounding, rebounding, rebounding. Three-point shooting and general
offensive efficiency were also better than expected.
BballFanAddict: Rebounding and offensive efficiency.
Oden2: Rebounding is an obvious strength for Portland.
Caravaggio: Rebounding and overall depth.
TheRipCityGuru: Rebounding and offensive efficiency.
BBen: During the regular season, the Blazers' biggest strength was their
offensive rebounding. They also were very productive on isolation plays.
BonziWellsPDX: Depth. They had a few injuries (Martell Webster, Oden), but
still had a rather deep rotation.
3. Who had a surprisingly effective season?
JD45: Nicolas Batum.
ptown08: Rudy? Blake? Tough question for me.
Jsun947: Fernandez and Roy.
Twith: Roy. He took a bigger offensive load than the year before and somehow
became more efficient.
BballFanAddict: Batum. Never would anyone have believed he would start (not
that he played starter-type minutes).
Oden2: Batum is far and away the biggest surprise of the season. We pretty
much expected what we got out of everyone else, but Batum came in as a guy
who was supposedly not going to contribute for years, yet he managed to make
a huge impact on games.
Caravaggio: Roy took his game to near superstar level.
TheRipCityGuru: Batum. His length gave other teams fits.
BBen: Fernandez.
BonziWellsPDX: Batum. No one expected him to play this year, let alone start.
4. Who had a surprisingly ineffective season?
JD45: Jerryd Bayless was expected to be at least a backup, and maybe starter
by the end of the season.
ptown08: Outlaw.
Jsun947: Oden, just because he couldn't stay on the floor.
Twith: Bayless. Many thought he'd break into the starting lineup by
mid-season, but he couldn't even get over Sergio for the second spot towards
the end of the year.
BballFanAddict: Webster. Never would I have thought a "stress fracture" would
result in a complete season loss.
Oden2: I'm going to go with Bayless here. The obvious choice is Oden, but I
honestly believe he showed great signs at times. Bayless on the other hand
was seen by some as a guy who could step in at point guartd right away and be
our starter of the future.
Caravaggio: Oden. I'm not surprised that Sergio Rodriguez/Bayless weren't
effective.
TheRipCityGuru: Outlaw. His shot selection and team defensive drives me
bonkers.
BBen: Blake.
BonziWellsPDX: Oden. He shouldn't have lost the starting center spot to
Przybilla.
5. How confident are you in the front office heading into the offseason?
JD45: Very.
ptown08: Very confident, I think KP realizes that at some point parting ways
with a key rotation player will need to be done, and he will get it done,
despite him being 'too fond of players.’
Jsun947: 100%.
Twith: Pretty confident. I think our faults are obvious and KP has shown no
aversion to making moves in the off-season.
BballFanAddict: Highly confident, but not as confident as a year ago due to
the fact no adjustments were made before the last deadline.
Oden2: I hate to sound so standoffish here, but I think a lot of it depends
on the moves that are made this offseason. Many of us were disappointed that
KP didn't make a deal at the deadline, but there are also a good number who
are glad that KP kept the team together.
Caravaggio: Decently confident, slightly worried that they consider this
current young roster worthy of leaving alone to grow.
TheRipCityGuru: Why are you even asking this question!
BBen: 70% confident, 30% terrified that they'll retain Outlaw and Blake.
BonziWellsPDX: Personally, I feel a little tenuous at this point, but only
because it's so early on and we've yet to get much of a read as to who's
available and what angles KP is working.
6. What are the team’s biggest needs in the draft?
JD45: They need a veteran upgrade at point guard and a veteran backup power
forward.
ptown08: A gritty power forward or center.
Jsun947: We aren’t going to find a small forward or point guard in this
draft that’s better then anyone on our roster. I suppose a second-third
string big man.
Twith: Realistically, a backup power forward should be our draft target.
Throwing another rookie into the mix at point guard wouldn't help unless we
also get a starter upgrade via free agency or trades.
BballFanAddict: I’m not sure if Portland's biggest needs can be answered in
this draft. A banger that can rebound and score on the block would fill a
need.
Oden2: If Portland holds onto their pick, I'd say the biggest need is backup
power forward assuming they sign a veteran guard in free agency.
Caravaggio: Power forward.
TheRipCityGuru: In the draft? None. Take a promising European or power
forward project. If not, trade the picks.
BBen: Backup big men and play-makers.
BonziWellsPDX: We don't need more youth. A backup big man is the most
realistic need.
7. Who would you like the Trail Blazers to take with the 24th pick?
JD45: Darren Collison.
ptown08: Victor Claver or Rodrigue Beaubois, or package it for later picks.
Jsun947: Nobody. I'd rather we moved it to create more cap space.
Twith: DeJuan Blair isn't falling that far, and Tyler Hansbrough would be a
huge reach. Gani Lawal seems to be popping up a lot, and I wouldn't mind him
I guess.
BballFanAddict: I doubt any player will be available at 24 that will do
anything but ride the pine on this team.
Oden2: Blair would be the obvious choice, but I'm fairly positive he'll be
taken before we have a chance to nab him. Taj Gibson is my second choice.
Caravaggio: Trade the pick.
TheRipCityGuru: One thing we know is we won’t be drafting with the 24th
pick. It will be traded.
BBen: In no particular order: Chase Budinger, Jeff Pendergraph, Greivis
Vasquez, Blair, Sam Young, or Hansbrough.
BonziWellsPDX: Yawn.
