Worst of the Night: October 28, 2008

... According to Oden, the injury -- currently listed as a "sprained foot" -- occurred when he landed on Derek Fisher's foot while going after a rebound. Only Fisher said: "I don't remember a 7-footer on my foot." So what happened? According to ESPN's J.A. Adande: "Replays indicate that Oden landed with the weight on the front of his foot, then perhaps his heel hit the top of Fisher's foot, then Oden's foot twisted to the right, after Fisher had moved away." ...

... is a bulk shooter, needs the ball, and did have a decent offensive night. But, all things considered, I'm not sure it would have mattered on this night either way. The Lakers were too much. It'll be interesting to see if the Blazer coaches will revisit this situation before Friday's home opener against San Antonio. And, of course, we'll see whether or not Oden plays. This was supposed to be Tim Duncan vs. Oden, and then on Friday, Oden vs. Shaq, and so on, and so forth. J.A. Adande, After a long wait, Oden's debut comes to a hobbling halt: On the first night of the NBA's soft ...

Greg Oden Greg Oden first game kicked off last night against the Western Conference Champions L.A. Lakers. Oden who missed last season with a knee injury was ready to take the NBA world by storm. But in the 1 st quarter the big man fell and wobbled his way up and had to be taken out of the game to never return. It has been reported that Oden has a mild sprain foot and there is no time table when he will be back. Oh can’t you hear the cry’s from the Trailblazers who drafted Sam Bowie instead of Michael Jordon. So the pain continues for this Northwest franchise. Who by the way lost to the Lakers by 20, but if you are a Blazers fan is excited about your rookie from ...
