Blake had a stress fracture, Oden has an actual fracture.

If you need to know the difference, type Oden injury into youtube, pull up the video and look where his left knee cap is. Can't find it? Exactly.

Also, with Portland now without Oden and Pryz as their starting center I think they would be willing to compensate nicely in a trade for either Kaman or Camby. Just a thought.

Oden's looked much worse and had to be carried out on a stretcher. Blake was able to leave under his own power. Blake's injury was probably a bit more serious than first announced, but a full on fracture is worse than a stress fracture.

Here's a pic of Oden's injury

Please be advised that it's not pretty.

It frustrates me to think what our record would be if we won half the games that we should have won but let slip away.


I think that every time we lose and how we could be about .500. We're close, but we just need to get over the hump.

I'm glad that we won today. Is it just me or are most of our wins ugly ones. Seems like that three by Baron put the game away. I'm glad that EJ is back and I liked how Camby played.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Nice win, but it scares me to think this team needs EJ to win (and probably will be much better with Griffin back), It shows that the guys who SHOULD be leading the team (high paid veterans) are not worth the money they get. Not liking this at all.

Dreary about the stream going out, but I'm glad for the win.
As with every win, though, I hope Sterling isn't chalking it up to Dunleavy's mythical adequacy.
And 21 turnovers isn't what we would hope for.

What an ugly game, but a win is a win.

Good to see Gordon back and lets hope he can stay healthy, cause without him we aren't even an .400 ballclub.

BTW: Marcus Camby for MVP. Dude is playing just solid all around and hustling for everything.

Also Blake Griffin is 20 years old, Oden must be close to 40 by now :wink:
