moeroadkill Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 sucks so bad. wonder if Portland will re-sign him next season or let him walk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Tzu Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Phx should sign him next season, and do their magic on his knees No seriously if Phoenix do sign him I guarentee that all this injury will stop. They managed to help guys like Shaq, Hill and even Nash stay healthy for a whole season. It's really surprising what this team can do to get their players healthy and active all season long.

Newman Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Portland, along with Golden State, are the two cursed teams in the NBA at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 He should retire. Plain and simple. Get away from the game, condition for 1-2-3 years, then try coming back... I'm sure if all goes well, some teams will be interested. Agreed. Go get his degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Damn, I really feel bad for the dude. How long can he go on with this, it is like all he has been doing for the last 3 years has been rehab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) It is going to be interesting to see what Portland does with Oden next season. His qualifying offer is $8.8M next season, which is a lot of money for a guy who can't even get on the court, let alone stay on it. If they don't give him that be becomes a UFA. Does Portland take the chance or cut ties with him? Edited November 18, 2010 by Built Ford Tough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Swish* Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 LOL. you know why I'm laughing? 1. I'm not really surprised2. This guy always gets injured and it's the second year straight Honestly, what the hell is wrong with this guy's body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 From a medical standpoint, when one leg is weak, the person tends to use the other leg more frequently and as the possibility of an injury on that leg is higher. From a personal standpoint, the dude is just cursed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliver P Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Bummer. That's a bummer. I don't know what else to say, honestly. It really sucks for Oden and the Blazers. I think that the Blazers is certainly the most cursed team I ever seen since I've started to watch this game. It's unbelievable. If healthy they could easily make at least the WCF. They're clearly one of the deepest teams in the league, arguably the deepest one. Really sad... I doubt that they'll go far in the playoffs without their big man now. Anyway even if Oden's career looks compromised I think that it's important to take in consideration that you can come back from serious injuries. Let's not get carried away, Oden is not done yet. Let's talk about Ilgauskas for example, at the beginning of his career he had the same problem as Oden (except that it was his feet that were bothering him). He had serious injuries in BOTH feet and barely played in the three seasons that followed his rookie season (he even didn't play at all in 1999-2000). Everyone was sure that he wouldn't come back and retire. Yet he did come back. And he missed very few games since 2001. So Z showed that year that it's possible to come back from serious injuries. And Greg Oden definitely can come back as well. And I certainly hope for both the Blazers and Greg that he will come back indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
