Word! I am not going to lie, I am pretty upset with the injuries, but you can't blame Greg from them. Like I said in another post, I am pretty close to stop depending on him to be a big part of our big 3 until he can stay on the court (more for my state of mind than anything). But he is a Blazer, and as long as you rock that jersey, I'll stick by GO. The frustrating and encouraging part is, if he can keep playing healthy, he will be a beast.
Totally chilled here. Didn't you see my snow pictures? I certainly don't expect to hear every jot and tittle of Oden's life. However, I had come to question that there may, may be a reluctance on the the organization's part to share (much anticipated, mind you) updates regarding Oden's recovery? That said, it was nice to see something from Nate last night. EDIT: OK, now ther's this, as well.... That, coupled with what I had read about it all being up to Greg, coupled with Nate pulling him from practice, coupled with seemingly more and more random analysis regarding how the Blazers just may have screwed up drafting Oden over Durant (BTW, I TOTALLY rebuke such thoughts or suggestions)......................all that. It just became super frustrating to me, you know? After reading the many comments in here, though, I've decided it's a personal thing. It's not that I'm not chilling as much as I've probably become a bit hasty in my suppositions. It's all good, though. I promise. That said, you're certainly right about another thing: That was a GREAT win last night!! Just wish I could have seen it. Soon enough, though, as we'll be headed back home to Oregon. Perhaps I might even have the opportunity to buy you a beer someday.
What is so hard to understand about day to day? LOTS of NBA players go through this type of situation. No Doctor in the world can predict what the swelling and/or pain will be tommorrow, let alone several days ahead. Your post reminds me of people who complain that the weatherman can tell them what will happen two days from now. Like the weather, certain types of injuries are immune to accurate forcasts.
