just thinking abt ades comment and its understandable that teams would want to take the center over the wing even tho durant was p obvs a generational talent, i mean it was the wrong decision but its understandable, but then just thinking like the blazers gave oden a check up before they drafted him, they knew one of his legs was wildly shorter than the other which is really well known to cause all sorts of injury up and down the body, and they still drafted him, that is insane

Will Greg Oden ever step on the court and play for The Miami Heat?
does preseason count
By the terms of the thread title, it would appear the answer is yes.
― Aimless, Thursday, 24 October 2013 17:11 (ten years ago) link
preseason def does not count and i will tell you why, everyone involved in greg getting that one min playing time admitted that he wasnt nearly game ready and it was just for fun, ie it wasnt real playing time cause it wouldnt have happened in a real game, also it doesnt count cause it wasnt a real game, might as well give him credit for scrimmages or practicing free throws

So far, he's played 2 minutes in the first half. 1-1 for 2 points and 1 rebound, so his per 36 is looking awesome!

Irony is that people thought that both players in that play might never step foot on the court again
his elevation wasn't outstanding, but his timing was spot on

cut today from the jiangsu dragons roster, "Oden's inability to catch on with the Dragons likely signifies the end of his professional basketball career."
