Is Greg Oden contracting a serious case of "Yao-itis"?

From Joe Freeman at OregonLive.com:

Rookie center Greg Oden did not practice Friday and coach Nate McMillan said he is a game-time decision for tomorrow night's playoff opener against the Houston Rockets. Oden awoke Friday morning with a sinus infection and the Blazers sent him to get further evaluated by team doctors. The Blazers were still awaiting results of that examination as I was writing this.

Yeah, Yao is going to completely own the Trail Blazers over the next 6 games (and yes, I said "6" and not "7" because the Rockets will finish off the Blazers at home in Game 6).
