Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
[QUOTE=RoseCity07]It sucks they are pulling Oden at 20 minutes in pre season. His is owning Horford right now and Roy is owing Joe Johnson yet again. As I'm listening Oden gets an and 1.
LOL, they just took Oden out and now Horford got his first basket on the play after.[/QUOTE]
I'd hope he'd dominate Horford. He has about 4 inches and 70 pounds on him.
Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
Al Hordord ---- 6pts, 6reb and shot 3-8 from the field
Greg Oden ---- 11pts, 5reb and shot 5-6 from the field
I'd say Oden has outplayed Al Horford in today's game and if given more than 30 minutes he'd have completely owned the poor Atlanta Center...[COLOR="White"](which requires Oden to learn how to reduce the PFs he receives while trying to block)[/COLOR]

Read above. Horford isn't a Center and it's a disservice that Atlanta keeps playing him there.

All 6 points were scored after Oden went out. He was 0-4 when Oden went out.
Oden owns Al Horford. He isn't even close to being in top shape either.
Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
Horford is to undersized to be playing the Center. They need someone who can actually play that spot correctly....
Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
His actions in season will make the haters shut up,I do believe.

Oh comeon now, Oden owns Horford because of a meaningless preseason game?

That's how it works around here.

I'm right there with you. The haters are many (not exactly sure why) but Oden will shut all of them up when he hoists that R.O.Y. trophy.

I hope you are right, but I'd like to point out that hoisting the ROY trophy doesn't seem to stop haters. Durant still receives hate, and heck, even James still receives hate from certain crowds.

None of them should get hated on. LeBron will soon be the best player in the NBA and Durant & Oden will be right on his heels.

Agreed, but they do anyway, and thats what I was pointing out.
Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
durant will be a baller but he will never be on the top of the list of best players in the league. lebron is a monster though and is imo the best in the league now. kobe is AMAZING dont get wrong but lebron can take over a game like nobody else can
Re: Believe the hype on Greg Oden
i hope greg oden succeeds because he's a good kid. it's too bad that blazer fans don't want bynum to succeed just because he threatens their god of a center.

i agree that kobe bryant is not the best in the league anymore. he may be one of the smartest, but he's past his prime physically and it showed last season. however, my pick this year would be for D-Wade and not LeBron.
