    I'm thinking they should just scope it and get that chip out. Get it over with already!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    It sounds like this time it was McMillan who didn't think Oden should play.

    The phrases Greg Oden and bad news are ones that I wouldn't mind not hearing anymore.

    You didn't have any play off hopes, with or without oden anyway. You should be worried about the fact he can't seen to stay healthy....sam bowie 2.0

    the blazers or mixum didn't have playoff hopes? i know the blazers did and still do, with or without oden. that said, and i can't believe this since, but i partially agree with mixum. the chip is going to have to come out, why not just scope it a week ago and he'd only be a month away from playing?

    I certainly blame Pritchard for Oden's knee injury.

    heres the reason you blame pritchard...

    he must have know odens injury was more severe then originally thought

    he must have know webster wasnt playing this year....

    ANDF HE DIDNT MAKE A FUCKING TRADE while with those guys we had major holes. HOW IS TAHT ACCEPTABLE??

    HE THREW THIS TEAM AND FANS UNDER THE BUS CAUSE HES CHICKEN SHIT TO GIVE UP AVERAGE TALENT TO MAKE ADEAL THAT MAKES US BETTER.

    Like Bill Simmons said... We are the team for the next ten years who will be the up and coming team that NEVER GOES ANYWHERE. ITS FUCKING SAD AND TIRED.

    There was no need to make a trade. Especially if Paul Allen wanted to save a little $. We have a very young team that's going to get better just by staying together.

    He is, but it's looking more and more like Greg should get surgery and come back in 2-4 weeks.

    I prefer to think of him as healthier than Andrew Bynum. Andrew Bynum is Bowie 2.0.

    The Blazer still have playoff hopes, but they will just be happy to get there. It's a culture of low expectations and excuses at One Center Court right now.

    This kid may have some sort of degenerative bone issues. I can't believe this is just bad luck! Ya know he looks 44 at 21, something tells me there is more to this story.

    It's funny the way they are playing this...."Just one more game, just one more game, just one more game"
