Augustin, Eric Gordon, Spencer Hawes and O.J. Mayo. I didn't include those because I wanted to point out some All-Stars that could very well be wearing a Blazers jersey this summer. It's still very possible that none of the names mentioned in the article will ever make it, but it's worth a prayer.   As far as getting those names to Rip City, even though the Blazers front office is a mess right now, players who have once played for us (like Channing Frye, Juwan Howard, Steve Blake) fell in love with the city soon after arriving and with the rabid fan-base, Portland is actually a fun place to play basketball. Sure the rain and the cold is unattractive, but once you get over those things, Portland is not such a bad place. You could be suiting up for Charlotte...
