Still, that will be more games played than his pro career to that point
http://www.hoopsworld.com/HeadlineSt...16#STORY_33579Bill Duffy, President of BDA Sports, the agency that represents Portland Trail Blazers center Greg Oden, joined Brian Berger on 750 AM The Game. His appearance followed one from Blazers Acting GM Chad Buchanan (transcript here). The Blazers must offer Oden a Qualifying
Offer by June 30 to make him a restricted free agent.
Of note, Duffy says that Oden wants to be in Portland long-term but that it could be January before Oden is back playing basketball, adding that "we'll wait until we get full clearance and then probably err on the side of caution, maybe a month or so after that."
Duffy also said that Oden has undergone "counseling, therapy, interventions" to deal with the mental aspect of all of his injuries.

I know it has about a .5% chance of happening, but I hope to god he's able to stay healthy and make a decent career for himself.
Imagine if all of the Blazers stayed healthy? Damn, scary.
Non-issue. The NBA season won't start until January anyway.
In the thread le, just remove "until January"
Will Oden ever play a full season?
so does this mean oden will get 10 million from portland next year?
they should offer him a contract and pay him for games played and not for the ones he does not play
Greg Oden is a non-issue. The time frame is irrelevant.
I don't think the players' union would allow it.
lol worst #1 draft pick since 02
My Rogue! Bringing the goods since forever
Damn, no wonder he looks so old. Is he ever healthy?
Who's Greg Oden? I've never seen him play.
In other news, the sun continued to shine today, encouraging millions of people who rely on the sun's rays to provide energy to Earth.
In before Oden shatters his leg in seven places after jumping up for a rebound on his second game back.
New Palestinian/Israeli peace talks underway, looking promising... wait.... duck! Nevermind.
thanks for the update scrah
This troll had so much potential, makes me sad.
i'd take you serious, but you've become irrelevantThis troll had so much potential, makes me sad.
Normally a rarely seen 7 foot hairy man in the Northwest is called a a big foot or a Sasquatch ....now we call it Greg Oden.
Greg Oden should just leave the basketball thing alone. I think he'd make one of a Farmer for some reason.

fortunately for tlong its just in time for training camp
Portland once didnt realize that Oden is avaible, so they run 6 men play with him
