Blake Griffin Out For Season

In an unfortunate turn of events, number one pick Blake Griffin is taking the Greg Oden route and missing his entire first season in the NBA due to injury. Griffin injured his knee on a dunk in the last preseason game against the New Orleans Hornets and has yet to play a single minute in the regular season. In his advanced rehabilitation he suffered setbacks and ultimately decided to have surgery which will hopefully correct the problem completely and have him healthy in the 2010-11 season. Hopefully he doesn't go down the road of Bill Walton, Doug Collins and now Greg Oden who seem to have injury after injury that prematurely end their careers.
