Worst Case For Oden Is Here

Not much to add (yet) to the collective wincing around this state when the news emerged just before noon that the Blazers #1 draft pick Greg Oden is likely to miss the entire upcoming season after having had microfracture surgery on his right knee earlier today. Jim Rome happened to mention the "bad news for Blazers fans" toward the end of his show today, and I know that when the Blazers selected Oden, with the hopes of having a dominant big man a lá Bill Walton, none of us were really expecting that injury bug to resurrect itself now. Sigh.




BLAZERS NEWS STORY




EDIT ON SEP.16.....I purposely did not want to mention a certain Blazer draft pick, but there is a good ESPN article ABOUT SAM BOWIE'S THOUGHTS ON ODEN that was published on Friday.
