Yeah but slim chance Portland is in the lottery again next year.

That's going to put a damper on OSU's chances for a National Championship....

Best of luck to Greg and a full recovery.

He did make the wise choice there.

Yes , on the way home I heard Greg is out for 6 months or longer for micro tears in his knee.

Damn.

Well, it didn't take long for Bill "I love Kevin Durant's nutsack" Simmons to chime in:

Two months ago, I wrote Durant was "the surest thing to come into the league since Jordan. Barring injury, he's going to be the league's next dominant forward."

That's what the Portland Trail Blazers passed up June 28, 2007. I thought it would haunt them some day. ... I just didn't know it would haunt them so soon.

Ok, first of all. The surest thing to come into the league since Jordan has been Tim Duncan, with Lebron and Shaq close seconds. Simmons needs to get off that trip.

Second of all, Oden's career isn't over. His first year might be, but if the Blazers get blitzed in the Western Conference (likely), then that team will be lottery bound again with a chance to pick up another young stud to contribut with Roy, Aldridge and Oden. This may be a blessing in disguise for the Blazers. I sure hope it is. I want bad for Oden to [censored] and [censored] on his critics' faces.

I wish Goden to a speedy recovery.

That Simmons is a real scum-bag to write something like that this soon.

What a little prick. He probably enjoyed the news when he heard it.

[xcrunner]

Damn..
Best of luck to Oden. Hopefully he has a good recovery and they don't try to rush him in to play... as much as I'd like to see him as soon as possible, lingering injuries that last for a lifetime because they only healed 99% is never what you want.

[muffler dragon]

Isn't Simmons the same guy that's crying every winter when his Celtics are sucking hind-tit? Or is that some other blabber?

why doesn't Oden get the "barring injury" tag?

Simmons is an arrogant prick. He's funny but so obnoxious that it's hard to like him.
