Apparently Batum also had dinner with Oden yesterday. So brittleness is catching now. (Actually that's nice. I didn't think Oden made any connection with any of our players. Supposedly he "looks good" and is "planning a comeback next season.")
I watched the 4th quarter and the end of the 3rd. I thought it was his shoulder that bothered him because his left shoulder was bandaged up underneath his shirt during the 4th quarter.
This doesn't happen to rookie contracts. The rule is, A Blazer's career doesn't end until he gets a giant contract.
