yeah, his first regular season game... it's not like this was his first time playing basketball sense his knee injury.... he has been playing basically injury free basketball all training camp and pre season. it just happens that the first regular season game he lands on someones foot and tweaks in ankle/foot
^^ yes hopefully that MRI shows nothing and its just a mild sprain. hope he can go friday. not really much to say about last night, got our asses handed to us by the defending western conference champs, they played like it too. we took too many jumpers, didnt get into the lane much. im a little worried that nate comes out and says "its my fault, i didnt have them prepared"...???? why the fuck not? everyone on the team was saying during preseason that they werent going to be looked past anymore, that teams were gonna give their all against us, so why the hell did we all looked so shell shocked? passive, and what not. Very disappointing, but it is just the first game, we just need to get a rotation down, and see whats what. Travis did very well, a few of his shots were definitely ill-advised, but hey he and rudy were the only ones making shit. Hopefully a home crowd can bring up the intensity level for us and come back against the spurs. is ginobli still out?
oden out 2-4 weeks..... not as bad as everyone thought but still, this guy just needs to get healthy!

he needs to get and stay healthy, and all the fucking fans out there who were riding his nuts comparing him to david robinson and kareem, and shaq before he twisted his foot, who are now calling him sam bowie can all die. i know none of them are on here, but they are out there, oregonlive and shit. the kid is going to be fine. i do agree with this guy on oregonlive who said that when he does come back, to have him come off the bench, let joel start, let oden get get a little more acclimated to the nba paced game. i think that it might take some pressure off.
