sucks? i think this is a good thing. it's meaningless anyway.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Good. Homeboy needs his rest way more than he needs a third game in as many nights -- and a meaningless game at that.

 

[Minstrel]

Good. More rest. I'll bet he can play and is using the soreness as an excuse to take the All-Star break off.

Oden is already big-timing All-Star weekend. *sniffle* Our little Oden is growing up so fast.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Good.

 

[Kulas]

btw i remember oden played after the collision and didn't show any signs of pain at all. i think in his mind he's saying "screw this nonsense, let me watch instead"... or go to 24 hour fitness and play pick up ball =)

 

[julius]

Man, KP blew it! We're not making the playoffs now!!!!!!

 

[Karl Malone's Elbows]

This sucks. The Rookie Game is my favorite part of All Star weekend and I was really looking forward to seeing Oden play.

I can't believe people here are saying it's a good thing that Oden reinjured his knee.

 

[Miksaid]

Booooo.

 

[theprunetang]

He has a bone chip on his patella.

Seriously.

 

[Bob Dobalina]

Good.

Anything but good if you ask me! Wow.

"Reinjured?" A little dramatic, don't you think?

They're saying its a good thing that they aren't playing him so he can get some rest. And "reinjured"??? It's not even the same knee as the microfracture.

 

[Minstrel]

Reinjured? He came back in after banging his knee and was effective, as I recall.

He's simply taking an extra day of rest rather than playing a meaningless game.

The Blazers sent out a release. Canzano read it on his show.
My paraphrasing:

Underwent precautionary MRI. Some minor swelling and a small patellar (sp?) bonechip. Listed as day to day.

I didn't hear that. Very scary.

Read the link that Sebastian Express posted. That is the Blazer's release.

Not cool.


Glaring at the people who responded to this thread with a "good"

[The Sebastian Express]

Does anyone have a history of having a chip fracture of the patella?

 

[MAS RipCity]

He is on the court for the rookie game, dude is fine, just needs rest

[ehizzy3]

he just wanted his rest...everything is okay

 

[Karl Malone's Elbows]

No, he has a bone chip in his non-operative knee.

 

[theprunetang]

He wanted his rest so bad that he made sure he had a bone chip fracture in his knee. Makes sense.

Now, this could be not a big deal. But, it could be.
