All I know is he retired but was not informed why?
Injuries?
Lost the passion?
What?

    He retired for the same reasons I would, he had enough money to live his life the way he wanted without ever working again.

    It was definitely because of the injuries. He missed the entire 2009-10 season and he only played 5 games last year.

    The Curse of the Big Man....foot problems....killed Bill Walton's career.....about to swallow up Greg Oden's career before it even really starts.
    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
