    Good to see that it WAS Portland and our fans and our evil media, that caused Greg Oden to be a dipshit.

    Are you sure it's Oden, or maybe it's a guy who looks a lot like him!

    I blame Canzano and Quick. Who doesn't go to Victoria's Secret with their mom?

    EDIT - at least Sam Bowie tried to make a career out of the NBA.

    What's sad? Why is he a dipshit? Because he can afford only normal pasttimes, and isn't out spending his savings? Because he lives intelligently and humbly?

    I don't know who Joe Kinsey is, but he sure slanted his tiny article. Oden accompanied his mother to an underwear store, so Kinsey writes that he was looking for ass. The ass is Kinsey.

    The guy has made over $21 million the last five years. I do get your point, but to say he is just some regular Joe is an insult to us regular Joes.

    Plus, I would never, EVER, go to Victoria's secret with my Mom, let alone talk to some chicks in the store while doing so.

    He's basically like any other 20 something unemployed dude. Drinking at bars, going to the mall with his mom and hanging with trannies.

    I didn't read the article, so i based my "dipshit" comment on the fact he seems to still be unwilling to make a serious effort at owning up to his problems/faults.

    What problems/faults? He has never in his life displayed any ego. Would all of you respect him if he spent his money on parties and mansions like several bankrupt stars did?

    I really don't get the Oden hate. I'm hugely disappointed that he couldn't get healthy here and didn't want to be a Blazer, but I see no reason to hate the guy.

    What the fuck does that even mean? How does looking at lingerie in a mall correlate to him being unwilling to "own up to his problems/faults" with his busted ass body?

    Some of you people need to let this shit go. He couldn't play basketball in the NBA because his body fell apart and he apparently got really depressed about that and drank a lot and attempted to hook up with chicks and whatnot -- pretty much sounds like a twenty-something male.

    Well, missing out on Durant wasn't quite as bad as missing out on Jordan/Olajuwon/Barkley.

    KD will be a hall-a-famer, on par imo. But I don't blame Greg for it.
