Sucks.

But according to some he STILL won't be a bust.

This is becoming comical. Really sucks for him though.

Yep, Oden is officially a bust.

Feel bad for him though.

There comes a point when you have to concede, this might be it. Damn that might be the most fragile 7 foot dude alive. Hell, even Manute Bol, all 186 pounds of him played more games.

I think the pick was a bust but I have a hard time labeling Oden himself as a bust because he is hurt all the time. There are guys who refuse to play dinged up; I do not think Oden is one of those guys. Oden's have all been legit injuries with long ass recovery times.

Plus, dude had the best missed dunk of all time.

i realize he has to be labeled a bust..... but at least in his defense, its not because he sucked! I feel really bad for him.. Hes a great person and teammate, and had so much potential.

I believe that was March 31st, 2007 in the Final Four against Georgetown.

This is why you shouldn't draft a guy that is 40yrs old.

I feel bad for him, especially because it's been due to knee problems.

The sad thing really is though, that when he played, he was very effective.

His career is likely over though. I just don't see how he could overcome this many knee issues.
