Greg Oden To be waived by Blazers

With the previous busy day being had in Portland today and their Coach firing (MCMillan), and two trades, (Marcus Camby and Gerald Wallace) being shipped out what nobody realized is that there are now extra bodies in RIP City.

Enter Mehmet Okur, Shawne Williams, Hasheem Thabeet and Jonny Flynn.

Portland's roster is sitting at 17 players. Two guys need to be released so that Portland is at the maximum of 15 players.

We've found out via Joe Freeman of The Oregonian on his Twitter account...

Two very credible sources. Looks like Greg Oden's days with the Portland Trailblazers is numbered.

More soon when we find out more.
