Could the answer to the Blazer questions be Arvydas Sabonis? All predictions in The Blazers Report change if Arvydas Sabonis makes a comeback. It is clear that Arvydas is making a comeback in Europe or with Portland (forget the LA rumors, garbage, and LA knows garbage). Arvydas has made strong comebacks before when he counted as retired, but was much younger at the time. Arvydas’ potential comeback would certainly explain the quiet surrounding Dale Davis and the Blazers choosing a center between Boumtje 2x and Jennings. It would also explain the Blazers lack of free agent interest in players like Keon Clark and Jeff McInnis as the roster room shrinks with the addition of Sabonis.
Arvydas should be heading to Portland within the next few days to talk with Bob Whitsitt and take a physical at Blazer facilities. The Blazers will renew their contract offers to Sabonis, offering him another chance to complete his ultimate goal, a NBA championship. With a renewed health, a renewed vigor, a maturing Rasheed and Bonzi, Sabonis knows he could be, once again, the missing piece. Look for the Blazers to be making a strong push for Sabonis to come back to the United States. I personally do not buy his allure to playing in Europe, he wants a NBA championship and if he makes a comeback it will be in Portland. I know put the chances at 30% that Sabonis makes a return to Portland, it would definitely explain a lot about the Blazers unique offseason.
