Oden To Chill

Greg Oden's rather dubious debut in the Vegas Summer League is officially over. He apparently has tonsils the size of golf balls and he needs to have them out ASAP. He'll be back in Portland resting for the next week or two. By all accounts, this is a good thing, his non-stop tour had started to wear on him and the Blazers obviously need him ready to go this fall. I'd be surprised if he isn't with Team USA in some capacity when they start their camp next week though.

On a side note, since we all love gambling, the night before the Draft the Blazers were 80-1 to win the NBA Title this year. The day after the draft they are 30-1.
