This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"

A member of my family is a doctor here in Portland. Yesterday, he was with a colleauge on a fishing trip. During it, this colleague got a call from the Blazers and he had to leave immediately. His explanation was that "Oden blew out his knee."

What this means, I don't know. Yanking a doctor on short notice like that doesn't sound good. I'm hoping its a DRASTIC exaggeration. This would be two days now, and nothing has been reported so obviously this should be treated as a rumor. Obviously, if legit, I can understand keeping this from getting out until MRI's or whatever are done...


Anyone with connections to the team, please prove this false.


I'm just reporting what I was told today so don't shoot the messenger.

You would have thought someone from the training facility would have let this out if true. Let's hope it isn't true. The Sam Bowie comparisons would never end.

Oregonian is looking into it. Hopefully they can find out more quickly than most of us.

Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"

I wouldn't put much stock in it. Doctors get called away from things for lots of stuff. If that is what happened, he 1st off wouldn't tell another doctor a person blew out his knee if he was the one being called in to examine it...he wouldn't know if he had or not. 2ndly when did this take place? If it happened anytime but today, then it's not legit cause the papers would already know about it. There is no reason to hide it.

Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"

Injuries are always the concern with game changing 7 footers, look at Walton, Sampson, Bowie.

Hopefully this is not true.

If it is, then I guess we hope he can make a 100% recovery.

That is probably what scares me the most about our team, the injury possibility with Oden or LaMarcus. They have both had serious injuries at such a young age.

Not to mention that it would be a major violation of a patient's rights to let this information fly. But, I'll feel better when I hear someone at the Blazers say something better than "we can niether confirm nor deny . . . ."

Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"

Aren't there strict patient-confidentiality rules? I volunteered in a clinic this summer and authorities even made us sign forms for this.

Either way, let's hope it's false.

Re: This Is Not A Joke...Oden May Have "Blown Out His Knee"

I sure hope this isn't true. I have looked all over the internet with this post being the only thing I can find about Oden possibly "Blown Out His Knee". If this happen two days ago I would think there would be a leak even if the Blazers wanted to keep this quite until they know for sure. If it happen two days ago it would have been on a Saturday. I don't even think the Blazers were even practicing. I guess he could have blown out his knee just doing normal everyday stuff.

there is no reason to hide a blown knee.

there is reason to hide an, at this time unknown, knee injury. the media and fans would run wild if the golden child is possibly hurt. but honestly, if it was bad you'd think they would know within a 2-day span. my guess is that someone was brought in as a precautionary measure.

I think he means the wrist injury. Not major like a knee, but he did go with only one hand for quite some time.

As Reep said he had the wrist thing. He has back issues. He had the tonsil problem. I heard something about leg length issues. But the back issues are probably the most worrisome long-term. If you have back problems they never really go away. Look at TMac and Bird.

Maybe I'm being a bit nitpicking or overly worried with Oden, but compared to most 19yr olds that is on the injury prone side.

I was talking about Aldridge as well, and he is hands down injury prone. The guy never makes it through an entire season, or even summer league season.
