Oden likely out for season

by

During an exploratory scoping procedure on Greg Oden Thursday, odennba.jpgdoctors found and performed surgery to correct a microfracture in Oden’s right knee.

Oden will likely miss the entire season.

This latest setback for Oden (tonsilectomy during summer league) proves the guy is not a 19-year-old wunderkind as advertised. Instead, it is quantifiable proof he is actually Robert Parrish.

Think about it. Have you ever seen Oden and Parrish in the same room? Hmmm? Have ya? Didn’t think so.

On the bright side, without the 7-foot big man and former Ohio State star in the lineup this season, Portland may yet land another lottery pick and secure league dominance for the coming 20 years. .

And now … microfracture surgery

    WOW. Just…wow.

    So where can I get a refund on all that time I spent throwing a tantrum when the Celtics lost out on the lottery? Wait, I’ll just think about this report while I’m watching the New Big 3 eat up the East. Nevermind.

    (Speaking of which - Oden and Parrish? Hmmm…you might be on to something. Too bad Oden looks too old to be the Chief…)
