    As I understand it, this kind of deal is a substitute for the standard QO that can only be used when the player eligible for the QO is physically unable to perform. It is the same as the standard QO in all regards *except* the $$ value.

    Oden must have been playing a lot of Skyrim during the lockout.

    He used to be a basketball player until he took an arrow to the knee.

    Oden's setback is with a non-weight bearing ligament. He has no symptoms and doesn't feel restricted, but there is concern w/ the fragility

    So was he truly cleared for running and pivoting? If so how much of a concern is it really? Im so damned confused today. Its like we are told one thing and then the complete opposite happens.

    If he's probably going to miss the whole season why are we even giving him this contract?

    Seems like if we re-sign him there should at least be a team option for next season.

    The 2000 game 7 loss was pretty bad. I'd say this isn't quite as bad since much of the writing was already on the wall with both these guys.

    That's what I was thinking.

    I'm going to jump off the bridge yet. I want to see how Williams and Babbitt do...

    I'm fine with this.

    Honey, pass me more vodka.
