Oden could return this season

[Minstrel]

It's the topic du jour.

But one you've claimed to have washed your hands of.

We all handle grief in our own way, and sometimes that's torrents of sarcasm. You should admit you're grieving, though. That's much healthier.

They've since changed the rehab process for microfracture though. I think you basically allow the new "cartilage"/scab to set for a few months, before you start the rehab process in vigor. That didn't use to be the case. I think the success rate is better now because of the change and extension in rehab time.

It's not happening. Close the book on Greg already, I'm tired of getting my hopes up.

Could he? Maybe. Will he? No.

This thing you do where you're sort of mocking everything I say about Oden is getting pretty fucking old.

 

[Elvin Jones]

Eh, fuck it. Let him play in May. What's the worst that could happen? He'll get injured again? That's gonna happen anyway. May as well squeeze one playoff run out of him before we throw him in the recycling bin.

Not everything. Your serious posts, I respond to seriously. Your mocking posts I occasionally respond to mockingly. Where's the unfairness in that?

May?!? NBA teams play in May? I thought we just play until April and then talk about who we want to draft. This playing in May thing sounds very intriguing. Tell me more.

If we get to the second round, may as well throw him out there.

But I think I meant to say April.

Ahhhhh... The mysterious 2nd round I've been hearing so much about.


If we make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs hopefully Oden will want to throw himself out there.

If Portland gets into the second round after this 16 month long cluster fuck of a stretch the city should have a parade in their honor.

That would be amazing.


And like last year, if Portland were to somehow beat the Lakers I would consider that 99% as good as winning it all.

He does it to me too sometimes. I usually just give it back to him
