This was beyond sad years ago. It's amazing how the Blazers don't just cut their losses.
Done for the season? lol
This guy is done entirely. He's worse then Yao for sakes.
Nevermind. he needs to retire.
Three. Two on the left knee, one on the right.
Guy would be such a badass if he wasn't made of glass.
If it wasn't already clear, this confirms that Greg Oden was one of the worst draft picks of all time. Please don't say it looked good at the time. I saw both Oden and Kevin Durant play in college. It was obvious that Oden was injury-prone and that Durant would be a superstar.
The guy didn't even play a full season of college basketball. I saw him play in the NCAA tournament that year, and he played 10 minutes. He looked like an old NBA veteran as a freshman in college. Durant was playing CENTER for the Texas Longhorns, nailing three pointers and dishing out assists.
Yeah. One of the worst picks of all time, and whoever made or supported that decision was woefully misinformed or stupid. That's all there is to it.
Mugsy Bogues playing with a mini-ball?
Oden broke his wrist. Really hard to extrapolate that out to a bunch of career-ending knee injuries when he had never had one in HS nor college.
Agree whole heartedly ... when you chase size at the expense of talent like that happens. Durant is no MJ, but Oden is no Bowie either. Bowie at least made some significant contributions for parts of a few seasons. This if Durant continues (not even improves) at his pace will be worse than that.
Simmons is a moron (at times, pretty good writer others) but said he saw Oden limping, and it appeared that one leg was shorter than the other at the ESPYS the off-season BEFORE his rookie year. Saw Durant there too ...and he said Kevin walked with a swag that a top pick should have.
I too watched over 10 games of each guy in college and Oden was never impressive to me. He seemed like a bigger but much slower version of Alonzo ...tbh. I never knew he would fail like this ...but I thought the comparisons to David Robinson were laughable ...Durant just seemed like a a more athletic black version of Dirk.
contenders
lmao you asshole![]()
How much money have they paid this guy exactly to go to the doctors office for 5 years?
SI said that it was just a second cleanout of cartilage, after the other one a month or so ago. He's already had microfracture on both knees.
IMO Oden could have been as good as Dwight if he stayed healthy.. big if though obviously.
Maybe better since he's a legit 7 footer
