No, there appears to be nothing that really can qualify as greed in the drama. For example, Theban King Laius and Theban Queen Jocasta abandon their son out of fear for their lives. Oedipus' father doesn't want to be murdered, and his mother doesn't want to marry her own son. Neither wants to raise an incestuous killer of father and king. Theban King Oedipus kills his own father in self defense and without knowing of the throne that's at stake.
