Well Thank God He Ain't In Green...


(ESPN)---Trail Blazers center Greg Oden, the former No. 1 draft pick whose short career has been marred by injuries, will have microfracture surgery on his left knee and will not play this season.

Listen I'm not the biggest basketball guy, but I do remember when Greg Oden was the next big thing and supposed to save the Celtics 3 years ago. Now he's going on his third knee surgery in 3 years and has yet to start more than 40 games in a season. Thank the high heavens that Danny Ainge was able to pull off the Ray Allen trade on draft night 2007. A lot of bandwagon fans forget that this guy would've been wearing green if not for that trade. That meant no Ray Allen no KG and no 08 title. Just another 20 years of self loathing and what if's.
