Oden done for the season...again!

Portland Trail Blazers center Greg Oden, the number one overall pick in the 2007 draft, has to undergo micro-fracture surgery on his left knee and will not play this season. Oden has not played since last December when he had to have micro-fracture surgery on his right knee in able to repair a fractured patella. Greg Oden is clearly on the way to becoming an overall BUST in the NBA alongside with the former Portland center Sam Bowie, whom the Blazers chose in front of "his airness" Michael Jordan in the 1984 draft. It was expected that Oden would play this season, but to no surprise once again Oden is sidelined with another injury. Greg will be a restricted free agent summer, and I have a strong feeling the Blazers organization will have no desire to chase after him to stay on the team. As a matter of fact, Portland made it clear that they will not offer Oden a contract extension clearly showing there is no more hope for his career with the Blazers. Back in 2007, everyone was worried about taking Oden early in the draft because of his injured wrist and the amount of foul trouble he would get himself into; But no one realized that he would be plagued with an assortment of season ending surgeries each year of his NBA career. It is evident that Oden's "run" (if you can even call it that) in Portland is finished and must move on to another team, if one is even willing to take him. It never seems to get any better with the Trailblazers as injuries also bring down the team one way or another...
