Invited on the Tony Parker Show, Blazers’ small forward Nicolas Batum talks about Portland’s situation after another disappointing season: "It's been another bad year for us. We are kind of used to it, it’s been like that for 3 or 4 seasons. But this year, with Roy’s early retirement and Oden’s injury, it was even harder. Our goal at the beginning of the season was to be in the playoffs so it’s a huge disappointment. We are now in rebuilding mode and I hope we'll be more lucky in the future. I’ll be a free agent at the end of the season, we’ll see what happen then. One thing is certain, I’ll be ready to play for the French national team in the Olympics."
