I got question any Blazer fan who isn't freaking out about now. This whole core, this whole championship contender talk was based around Oden.

The big man who only comes around once in a decade, the franchise player, most hyped about player since Lebron James. He has been injuried more than healthy, how can one not assume the worst with this latest injury.

Nothing. I turned on the radio feed.

Oden is still in the locker room and had X-rays 45 minutes ago. That's all anyone knows right now.

I'm not freaking out because we'll make the playoffs this year, with or without GO. This is a team built for '10-'11 and beyond.

I'm with you, the longer we don't hear, I think the worse it is.

Usually they run those negative reports out right away. If it is broken, they will save that for post game stuff.

Not sure if you heard, but Oden reportedly had an X-ray on his right foot at halftime and still hasn't come out of the locker room.

Sam Bowie had the same injury over and over and over and over. Oden's injuries have all been different.
 
UPDATE: More on Oden's foot. It's being called a mid-foot sprain. X-rays inconclusive. Oden will undergo an MRI tomorrow.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! *SHOOTS MYSELF*
 
Yep, he'll be out at least a few weeks or perhaps a couple of months. Bad luck.
 
Miller said it looked like a sprain, but x-rays inconclusive. MRI tomorrow.
 
Just saw the replay. Looks like a bad sprain to me. That could have happend to anyone. He caught the end of his foot against another player's shoe.

Doug Collins used the term "snakebitten". I think that's more accurate than "injury prone".
 
I'd like to know how x-rays can be inconclusive? Either you have a broken bone or you don't.

I think that means the damage might be to the ligaments instead of the bone.

Fuck me.

I don't see how he could have broke his foot with that fall. Ligiment damage won't show up on an X-ray with swelling, while an MRI should give a more accurate picture. He could have torn a ligament in his foot. That would seem to be worst-case unless he took another hit that we haven't seen yet.

They just said that because they saw something and don't want to say for sure until they know what it really is. I really think he will be out for a while maybe months. He can't get in game shape because he can't stay healthy long enough. Fuck Oden didn't even make it for our first home game.:sigh:
 
What sucks about the injury is that means his fat butt won't be able to get into shape.

I'm officially on the "wait and see" with Oden now. He gets no more praise from me until he does something.

If it's a hairline, you may need a clearer view.

I suppose, but I don't think a hairline fracture would be consistent with that kind of injury. With that kind of torque I would expect to see a clear seperation fracture if it existed.

I wouldn't blame Oden. He already fees the weight of the world on his shoulders. Some players are just hampered by injuries..we just happened to pick one with the #1 overall pick

The ligaments are more of a concern with the flex his ankle/foot took on that fall.

That's why the MRI. If he was able to keep playing, I'm guessing it's just a really bad sprain that probably swelled a lot at half-time.

I suppose, but I would say that means the x-rays are negative. Soft tissue damage is diagnosed with an MRI.
