Long article. To save everyone time, here are the 3 excerpts I found interesting. I didn't know Oden had had a psychologist while a Blazer, much less that the coaches were treated. I didn't think Oden had a chance (even before he was busted) of signing with a team this season.
You're welcome. I did the same Readers Digest service yesterday. http://sportstwo.com/threads/270867...d-resources.?p=3431382&viewfull=1#post3431382 You've all read Readers Digest all through your adolescence and many of their book condensations, right?
I don't agree or disagree, but just wonder. Was there something else in the article that said it was a mistake? Because based on what the quote said, I didn't see it.
No, simply my own accord since it was first announced. I'll never forgot the day, reading about it was quite the shocker because the organization was not forthcoming about the fact that MF was on the table leading up to the surgery. Greg himself didn't even know until he woke up, although I'm sure he was informed of the possibility beforehand.
McMillan was the voice of reason in that entire article. Oden's knees are done and the more he tries the more he's risking his long-term health. He'll be walking with a cane by the time he's 40.

I've no tolerance for domestic violence or the ravings of drunks that have the kind of privileges his wealth provides as well as a paid for education. Horrible example he's set now with this stupid deplorable act.
Now I'm glad he went to Miami. Didn't win a title, and the focus point won't be 100% on portland when his name is brought up.
Use the word in context. Most people who say hater and don't know WTF they're talking about. You seem to be one of those. A hater is someone who is actively trying to throw salt on someone so they cannot get with a female (playahater) or have some type of personal gain. Giving an opinion of someone because of a fact while not attempting to thwart their efforts, is not hating. Learn the game, then post...
