Oden Out For Year

[bkleo504]

Wow, horrible day to be a Buckeye basketball player, feel real bad for Oden, he was having an amazing season starting to come into his own. Unfortunately, a lot of people's concerns seem to be coming true, looks like the big goofy guy is a major injury prone player:

Blazers center Greg Oden has a fractured left patella that will require surgery. He will likely miss the rest of the season.
Devastating news for the Blazers. Oden was averaging 11.7 points on 61% shooting, 8.8 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks in just 20 minutes per game. Joel Przybilla will likely become the Blazers starting center, but we'll keep a close eye on the Blazers' rotations over the next few games. Dec. 5 - 11:25 pm et

When you're over 40, injuries come more often !

That was horrible TPE..

Indeed sucks for him though. All Buckeye players should spend the remainder of the weekend in bed!

He has still not recovered from losing to Xavier

Geez...what is it with this guy?

He was having a great year . . . . Terrible news. The usual pile on will occur about him being a bust, etc., but he's absolutely snake bit.

Here is somewhat of a video:




You know it's bad when a trainer puts a towel over the injury so you can't see it.

THat knee was busted to hell. I saw that happen to a guy once and he was in absolute agony. I think Oden kept his composure pretty well, all things considered. I hope he can somehow have a few good years in him.
