Rank these Players!
Include the fact that some have undesirable contracts, which should lower their ranking other things being equal. Some have several years of NBA experience which should help their ranking.
Rank the order in which you would like to have them on your team.
Here's my first shot at a ranking (vets are in bold, space between each 5):
Derrick Rose PG
Michael Beasley PF
O.J. Mayo PG/SG
Leandro Barbosa, G
Travis Outlaw
Jerryd Bayless PG/SG
Eric Gordon SG
Russell Westbrook PG/SG
Joe Alexander SF/PF
Kevin Love PF/C
Martell Webster, SG
Kirk Heinrich, PG
Brook Lopez C
Anthony Randolph SF/PF
Danilo Gallinari SF
D.J. Augustin PG
Brandon Rush SG/SF
Jarrett Jack, PG
Donte Greene SF/PF
Sergio Rodriguez, PG
Feel free to add other vets the Blazers would consider trading for (such as Ben Gordon)

Wow, you must REALLY hate Kevin Love to have him ranked dead last behind Jarrett Jack and Brook Lopez. You do realize that Kevin Love was a 1st team All-American and Pac-10 player of the year and Brook Lopez was, well... Brook Lopez. You wouldn't happen to be a bitter Duck fan would you?

Nope. I'm a fan who believes slower white big men don't bring a lot to the NBA game, and that robotic big men don't do a lot for your team either.
As for those of you that will bring up Sabas, don't. He was the single best player in the world before his injuries. Love or Lopez are not
