It's crazy to see Conley out there hooping, actually being a solid point guard while Oden is one of the bigger ongoing punchlines in the league...

Oden would have had a ring by now if he was heathly


In that NCAA title game he was beasting Noah and horford like :smugdraper:

Not what he said at all. Read the article.

Dude's been pretty miserable since he got drafted. That story of his blind dog dying by crawling through a hotel balcony railing and falling 8 stories is horrible.

I stopped when the interviewer (surely white) told Greg that he was going to "humanize" him.

HOW THE fukk DO YOU HUMANIZE A fukkING HUMAN?!?!?!!??!!?!?!

shyt pisses me off to no end.
:what:

He was just trying to explain who Greg is as a person and shed some light on what he has gone through. To most he is just an injury prone bust. This was the authors attempt to make him more easily relatable.

I'm assuming you didn't read through the rest of the thread after that post.

So it was a good read... but umm, I'm i suppose to feel sorry for him?

I'm sure he still has a few million stashed away.

If he is so private and sensitive just walk away and do something else.

Really? the blind dog dying is what got to you?

Not his cousin dying of cancer, or his child hood best friend dying in a car wreck? :what:

He should throw Portland under the bus, your team has an incompetent medical staff -

In Greg’s case, every exercise or target area needing improvement on his list required slow, yet focused repetitions. If Greg was asked to walk, run, squat or jump, he placed more of the load on his left leg than his weaker right leg. I informed the medical staff that this overload would put Greg at risk for a major acute injury to his left leg. Greg’s imbalance was so distinct that I even advised that staff that if he didn’t improve the weaknesses in the short-term and continue some of the rehab-like exercises for the entire season, his career could be at risk.


And you can believe it or not, but the medical staff laughed off my recommendations

Why is he taking a dump on Portland ? Dude is acting like the blazers were made up of old white guys or something.
