Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"
When it rain it pours. The appeal of this team isn't anywhere near what it was with a semi-healthy Oden. Well, we do have a new HD scoreboard, we at least have one thing to look forward too.
Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"
The Blazers can't announce what it is until they know. All they can say is probably.
Haven't half the NBA had their knees scoped?
I saw Bonzi Wells tear his ACL. Believe me, there was no mistaking it. He was on the floor pounding the hardwood screaming.
As for Greg being fragile, that's silly. A freak accident (wrist) and tonsilitis?
But I sincerely hope he does NOT get chicken pox. It's minor for kids but adults can be out for weeks incapacitated.
You know, I feel guilty. The board was so boring I kept hoping SOMETHING would happen with the Blazers so we'd have something to talk about. Be careful what you wish for!
I see chicken little is still alive and stressing...
This isn't good news, obviously, but it's not bad news yet. The trend I've picked up on is that injuries are a part of hoops as most every player suffers them during their career. Heck, just last year every Blazer starter (and some of the main role players) missed significant time healing up from one ailment or another.
Here's hoping that this one is as minor as it seems so we can get back to worrying about the uniforms.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say 'accusation'. I've made pessimistic assumptions, just like you have made optimistic ones. I don't recall accusing anyone of anything.. Other than it appears Oden is injury prone. But that's not an assumption, to this point that's just a fact. Let's hope his injuries just continue to be minor, but if he's going through all of this at 19 during the off-season, it doesn't take a whole lot of intelligence to know what awaits him when he's older (so that doesn't say much about you).

Oden is also a lot bigger than Stoudemire. Amare isn't the explosive player he once was, not even close, even he admits that. You really can't compare the two, Amare hasn't shown to be as injury prone as Oden.
Fact: Greg Oden is injury prone. That's not an assumption.

Will one of you guys save all these negative posts by these "Blazer Fans"! So that when we are on a 5 game winning streak in January because Greg is averaging 15 points/ 10 rebs/ and 4 blks a game, they'll try to get on the wagon. Let's stay positive boys!
