That.
Still very good to see your acquisitions work out properly. I like how you finally have a story with really good pics (just because 2k13 looks better than 2k9 )

Greg Oden Sighting!
By Willard Smith
Pictures say a thousand words and the two above must be saying a lot to the 29 NBA teams who did not sign Greg Oden last Summer.
Who can blame them though for not signing the former first round pick given Oden’s record of ill health? Oden and his knees were always going to be an extremely high risk investment and one that is seen as most likely to result in no reward.
Despite all of the issues, the Detroit Pistons rolled a die with the 7 footer. This week, the Pistons’ faith has been rewarded as the first encouraging and positive sign from Oden’s rehab have revealed itself to the public. Oden participated in five on five drills and even a scrimmage. His teammates called his movement fluid and Tayshaun Prince was even quoted as saying 'Oden had about five dunks in the one scrimmage'. Someone within the Pistons’ PR team posted the pictures that we have onto Twitter and as you can see - one of those five dunks was captured on film.
Yes - there is proof that Oden may still have hope of playing in the NBA again. This is huge considering that Oden himself admitted to pondering retirement after the Portland Trailblazers decided not to extend him an offer to stay with them. (For the record, if I were the Blazers, I wouldn't have offered Oden a contract either because he did nothing for them over five seasons.)
Oden got the same surgery on his knees that Kobe Bryant in Germany. He has spent months to get back onto the court and was lucky to get a 1 year deal in Detroit. It’s great to see him playing and I am excited to see whether he will make an impact if he gets back onto the court in an NBA game. The Pistons did set a targeted return date for Oden in January 2013.
Now that we have made our first Oden sighting, all we can do is play the waiting game.
