Huh, terrible news. This was already a career-altering/ending injury without this setback.
PORTLAND, Ore. -- Portland Trail Blazers center Joel Przybilla needs surgery again on his right patella tendon after he slipped in the shower at his home, according to a report on the Blazers' Web site. Przybilla re-ruptured his tendon Saturday morning while at his home in Milwaukee, Wis., the report said. He's expected to undergo surgery this week.
Przybilla's original injury occurred Dec. 22 in a game against the Dallas Mavericks and he underwent season-ending surgery later that week. He averaged 4.1 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 30 games prior to being hurt. It's not known when he will be back on the court for the Blazers.
In addition to Przybilla, center Greg Oden also suffered what is believed to be a season-ending injury earlier this season. The injuries led the team to trade Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw for center Marcus Camby just prior to the league's trade deadline.
Camby has suffered a pair of minor ankle injuries during his stint with the Blazers so far. He is questionable for Portland's Sunday night game with the Denver Nuggets.

As soon as I read the thread le I started
lol shark-diving a safer job than playing center for the blazers
The curse lives on....
wowwwwwwwwwww I seriously dont know if I should laugh..Thats ed up, how worse can your luck get
What is it about Portland and Centers...
Btw, on a more positive note Greg Oden will be playing in the playoffs.
fixedAs soon as I read the thread le I started
lol shark-diving a safer job than playing any position for the blazers
Would you risk it if you're Portland?..
Oden was a beast before he got hurt, he was playing like a top 3 defender, so he obviously helps..I think it might be a big risk to bring him back too soon though, although I guess it could be better if they only plan on playing him 15/20 MPG now that they got Camby..
As for the Pryzbilla news, this is just getting ridiculous..somebody in Portland ed up with some bad karma..
Don't worry guys, the Blazers are gonna dedicate tonight's game to Przybilla for re-injuring himself in the shower and put an ass whooping on the Nuggets. Nuggets better be ready for it.
that's cruel man but lmao so true.As soon as I read the thread le I started

Wow, that's so ed up.
I feel sorry for what is to come for Camby.
Angel_Luv can use this as proof that there is a god, since there's obviously some sort of higher power that's pissed off at the Blazers
Yes, it was a fracture, so if the bone is completely healed, the doctors give their clearance and there's no muscle atrophy or serious conditioning issues, I would - or at least I'd give it a try to see how he responds. As you say, he's very probably going to play limited minutes as a 3rd/4th big, behind Camby and LMA and sharing time with Howard, because he'll probably be out of game shape and form necessary to play more time (or at least to play more time giving a positive contribution). Still, in limited minutes vs. others teams backups he can a big factor in terms of rebounding+defence. Sometimes a little contribution can help you winning a series.
It is like a sequel to Final Destination over in Portland.
Damn, I am always scared when my kids stand up in the tub. Time to get sticky mats.
lmao sons I love it
Przybilla was fingering his butt in the shower while thinking about Tyson Chandler then he slipped. oops. lolz
Obviously practicing his flopping skills
