    So Greg's knee that he broke won't make him stronger, but the one he had MF surgery on will?

    #Blazers' Oden said he hopes to be ready for #NBA playoffs. He is more optimistic than certain, though. 2 minutes ago via Tweed

    Healthy = Healthy. If he is ready to play, he is ready.

    I hope so. But I dont want him in there at 80% with that risk of getting hurt again.

    Just compromise. He can play in the playoffs, but needs to wait until game seven of the western conference finals. About June 1st.

    I like that he is working towards coming back this year, even if it isn't realistic.

    ^ Looks like the Rasta Monsta is really having an effect on him.

    Then let's miss the playoffs and get a chance at Wall?


    If the Blazers need playoff experience then so does Oden.

    I agree to that.. but I mean more if there is the risk of re-injuring it. if he is 100% then It doesnt scare me. But if he isnt.. I see no reason to risk it for a 2nd round berth

    He needs to sit out the season and get ready for the next. I'm excited to see him have a healthy season. We really need it.

    The chances of Greg having a healthy season are slim...but I hope I'm wrong.

    If his leg muscles are strong enough for competitive play in the playoffs, so be it. If this had been another ligament or cartilage injury that might be a different story, but I don't see the harm if he is truly ready and cleared to play.
