    Wrong. Roy, Webster, Blake, and Oden all had original time-tables for returning that ended up being lengthened, in most cases more than once.

    I think that Mixum will pleasure himself while looking at the box score of the losing game.

    As for me, I will be bummed but not devistated.

    Bullseye!

    The Blazers have largely brought this on themselves.

    BTW, if Oden does miss the game, any bets that Simmons or somebody writes a column claiming the Blazers held him out because his tender psyche couldn't handle getting owned by Yao?

    Can people please stop quoting MIXUM. I have him on ignore and yet I still get to see some of his inane comments. Don't feed the troll and he won't keep coming back for food.

    Well now you are going from every injury to these players. I agree with you about Webster and Oden . . . I don't recall about Roy or Blake, but if you say so I believe that. So 4 players this year . . . I do think that Oden sticks out because not only did he miss more games than expected, his diagnosis gets worse most of the time.

    But hey, I see this as a chance for Oden to start breaking the image that his injuries/diagnosis appear to get worse over time. If he comes out strong tomorrow . . . well you are only as injury prone as your last injury???

    OK maybe not . . . but something like that.

    Anyone that worries about this is an idiot, and you are being led by the king of all idiots aka Canzano.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Blake came back "too early" and re-injured himself. I don't know about Roy.

    Yeah, Roy was originally listed as day-to-day, but missed about two weeks. About two games after his original injury, the Blazers learned Blake would be out 2-4 weeks, longer than expected. After he came back too early and got reinjured, Blake was listed as doubtful for a game 3 days away, but it ended up being over 3 weeks before he came back.

    But you're right, Oden has more separate issues that fall into this category than anyone else. However, with his last injury, I remember reading that the Blazers had been told by doctors that Oden would be out for an extended period of time originally, but for some reason they decided tell everyone that his time-table was considerably shorter, then gradually they extended it, making Oden look to some like he didn't want to play basketball. I thought that was very unfair to Oden.

    I heard on the radio a half hour ago that he was listed as probable.

    If he's had it for a week, I'm sure he'll play. The medicines athletes can get are far superior to those us normal folks use.
