Re: Oden done for year
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I empathize for Oden, but I'm way more astounded that Portland even has fans. I truly did not know... [/ QUOTE ] Um, i'm from the east coast and even I know that Portland is a great basketball city. [/ QUOTE ] Blazer fans are great, maybe the best fans in the league, imo. This is brutal, hope he makes a full recovery. -Al

Re: Oden done for year
[ QUOTE ]
With the 2008 #1 pick, the Portland Trailblazers select Derrick Rose of Memphis University. Cheer up Portland, it could happen. Still sucks, cuz we'll never see how good Oden could've been. [/ QUOTE ] You might be jumping the gun a bit here, no?

Even the guy's who have been successful coming back, haven't they all lost half a step or a little hop? Amare's the poster boy for success, and imo he's not as explosive as he was before. oh yeah, same guy, diff acct.

Re: Oden done for year
Would have been much worse for him if he had stayed in school another year. I guess this will now be the Exhibit A for coming out as early as you can.
How was this injury determined now but not when he was drafted?

Re: Oden done for year
knee problems at this age is a bad sign. The amount of punishment those knees take at that position means a pretty big risk of injury.
I hope Portland gets lucky in the loto again. Would be brutal if they lose Oden for the year, have another terrible season, and then get celtic'd out of a good pick.
