    ....if I were Oden I would never again play in a game in Portland - for fear of injury!

    Well, KP will be right. One will win scoring titles and one will win championships. Kudos

    Ha! My first thought as well. Not often we're in sync, MM.

    By going to Miami, Greg only has to endure one Rose Garden (real name to be revealed later) booing session a year.

    I have a feeling a lot of that was the company line for a guy 'rehabbing' who seemed more interested in drinking alcohol and eating poorly than he did in his rehab.

    But Greggers, though. Always the victim, and always somebody else's fault.

    If I'm Miami, I keep Mr. Brittle as far away from anything related to dancing as humanly possible.

    Re: Oden STILL not ready?

    LOL

    He couldn't stay out of foul trouble when healthy and on younger knees.

    Semantics, since he wasn't offered the Q.O. I also don't see anyone 'praying his knees explode'. Talk about butthurt...

    Things will never be Gregger's fault, not for his apologists, and not for him. I know, because I was an Oden Apologist for years, until I finally saw through the guy's line of excuses and piss-poor attitude.

    Why, he became an alcoholic only because of his cousin! He moped his way through years in Portland not because of the alcohol, but because he was depressed!

    I'm on record saying I hope hot lava flows out of his knees. And I will boo him when he comes.

    The same thing can be said for those who think he gained muscle when was rehabbing. I'm pretty sure it was mostly fat..

    Completely agree. Repped.

    Oden is full of excuses about why he failed. Fuck that guy. "I became an alcoholic because I was a rich African-American in Portland and I was depressed." Get the fuck outta here and take responsibility for yourself.

    EDIT: Sorry PapaG "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to PapaG again."

    I don't hope his knees blow out, but I'm pretty pissed at him. He was waived because he already made it clear that he didn't want to be here.

    Exactly. He always seemed to blame everyone else but himself.

    Some teams have statues of no. 1 picks at their arenas. I hear the Blazers are planning a bust for Oden.

    People seem to forget that Oden was the most anticipated prospect since LBJ when he was drafted. An absolute can't miss beast of a man who never got a chance because of injury and foul trouble. He has a lot of rehab still to do and after that he still has to start his NBA development from basically 0, but If he lives up to 1/10th of his original promise then the Heat will be unstoppable for the next few years. The anti Hibbert.
