Oden Will Miss Rookie Game
Here's the quote from O-Live:
"NBA.com reports that Trail Blazers center Greg Oden (sore left knee) will miss the Rookie Challenge because of a sore left knee. Oden bumped knees with Golden State's Corey Maggette during the fourth quarter of Portland's 105-98 loss to the Warriors Thursday night. Oden is listed as day-to-day.
Oregonian NBA reporter Geoffrey C. Arnold will report more from Phoenix shortly."

good
honestly, i want greg to rest, and this is the type of game that would just make him look bad anyway.

How would it make him look bad
It’s a 2 hour dunkfest, that’s precisely a game where Oden would look like the destroyer of souls.

not plodding centers.

Unfortunately I think you're right
Its not like the game is meant to be a team effort. Most years you can probably count the number of times the ball is passed on one hand, so expecting Oden to get more than just second-chance cleanup duty is beyond optimistic.
I was disappointed that he wasn’t going to play, but really the rest is good for him.
