When you’re prone to injury, you may not have anything better to do…

HipHopRX: Greg Oden, 22, of the Portland Trailblazers, had some rude nude pictures to surface on the Internet. Embarrassed and ashamed (hopefully), he’s apologizing to his fans, team and organization.

A friend of Greg’s told him Tuesday morning around 6 AM that pictures taken with his cellphone (and sent to his ex) had surfaced on the internet. Oden officially apologized, saying “I would like to apologize to everybody; Portland, the fans, the organization.” He also told reporters at the Blazer’s facility, “It was very embarrassing.”

According to Oden, the pictures that shows him fully unclothed are from almost 2 years ago, meaning he was around 19 or 20 years-old at the time.

Forward LaMarcus Aldridge will get paid…

ESPN.com: The Portland Trail Blazers have verbally agreed in principle to a contract extension with forward LaMarcus Aldridge, a source close to the process told ESPN.com on Wednesday.

The extension is for five years and $65 milliion and will go into effect next season, the source said.

If Aldridge achieves certain hard-to-reach incentives, his contract could ultimately be worth as much as $70 million.
