Listen, if we win the lottery and Oden comes out,
there is no way, except through injury, that we won't
make the playoffs.  NO WAY.  This isn't even worth
debating.  We're a borderline playoff team right now
with everyone healthy.  If you want to debate
something, debate our seeding IN THE PLAYOFFS. 
Veterans our needed, that's for sure, but not to get
into the playoffs.
