Greg Oden Cut By Jiangsu Dragons

[SlyPokerDog]

On Feb 1st, Jiangsu Dragons, the CBA team issued an official announcement that the contact between team and Oden has been terminated. Last night, Jiangsu lost 104-106 to Sichuan, and they officially missed the playoffs after this game. Two games left before the regular season end. This season, Oden played 25 games for Jiangsu, averaging 13 points, 12.6 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. http://bbs.hupu.com/15414079.html

We can sign him for the playoffs!

Whatever he's taking to play 25 games a year probably isn't legal in the US.

China is just not a fun place for a rich African American athlete like Oden...he'll never learn! Hope he didn't hurt anyone while drunk again

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

At least he has a career in porn if this basketball thing doesn't work out

more likely...he'll be a bouncer in a strip club

"For starters, Jiangsu isn’t a great city to live in if you’re a young, African American male with a lot of money."

I guess the feeling was mutual.

13 points in China? Sad.

$20 I'll delete his post, $50 I'll ban him, I'll do both for $60. You save $10! Act now!

"Greg Oden's going to bury his hatchet... in Lisa Ann's vagina!"

Funny. I'd almost forgotten about him completely.

What a strange chapter in Blazer basketball.

My reaction to those shockingly high stats is the opposite of yours.

Whatever he's taking to play 25 games a year probably isn't legal in the US.

Exactly. Those are his best stats since high school.

To quote "Animal House": fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.

Chinese food makes everyone but Chinese people super fat. Even real Chinese food.

I just watched some preseason clips of him playing and he looked pretty good for the Dragons. Then I watched some highlights of his first real game for them and it looked like he had gained 40lbs.

He actually seemed like he could play if he was in shape.

Seems like a cost cutting move once they were out of playoff contention?

Sounds like "Stay away from my sister" to me. They didn't just let him go...they cut off all contact
(yes, this is a rumor and in no way connected to any proof or knowledge on my part)

Did CJ McCollum's brother score like 125 points in a game in China once?

I love this chain of comments!

Those numbers in the Chinese league aren't in the same postcode of what an NBA level player would put up tbh. Most fringe NBA players put up absurd numbers in that league.

He also probably has a 3 inch, 60 pound advantage on most guys over there. You're right.

That would probably be a very conservative estimate there.

He wasn't talking about his height.

Being sober might help as well.

I thought he might have been binge drinking to ease the pain of where he ended up. I swear he gained weight from preseason games to the opener. That just doesn't even seem possible.
