    Portland C Greg Oden will undergo an arthroscopic procedure later today in Vail, CO to remove debris from his right knee.

    Well... any news is good news, I suppose. Better than being completely in the dark.

    A simple procedure that could have been done months ago.....but then he might have had to play this season. :smiley-whatever:

    unreal that this was not done weeks or even months ago, unless it was a recent occurrence, the nightmare continues

    I had to look it up. Too many to remember.

    No it's the other one. It's the one he had MF on in 07.

    The arthroscopic technology is pretty amazing these days. If he was going to sit out the whole year anyway, this really is minor.

    We'll make the payoffs as the 7th or 8th seed, but have ZERO chance of advancing without HCA. We can't even beat SAC, DET or PHO on the road. How could we hope to beat a good team?

    Unless we have our "once a generation center" back...

    keep in mind just who we are talking about, perhaps the slowest healing athlete on the planet, a simple scope recovery is likely at least 3-6 months for greg!
