    He is a member of the Heat, but has he played any? What's going on?

    It always seemed like a move for publicity over anything to me.

    If GregO gives them 10 mins and 4 fouls per game against the Pacers in the playoffs, he's done his job.

    Like already said, will probably pull him out in the playoffs when they need him in like the semis. Not like they need him for the reg season or the first round scrubs they will be playing anyways.

    He will start playing later on in the season. The Heat have literally one team to worry about in the East. I think they are doing it right and making sure Oden stays healthy.

    I think he still felt discomfort in his knee or something

    they are not playing him because they know his expiration date is like 20 days

    East finals will be the only time they need him, who even in the 2nd round of the East can really challenge the heat?

    This is a bold and likely a stupid prediction but I think the Nets are going to get going assuming their players are healthy around playoff times.

    He can only sustain about 30 minutes of game time each season. So they are saving him for the Finals.

    They have a solid 2 - 3 plays before he gets a major injury again so they are saving him for something special.
