Believe the hype on Greg Oden

:cheers:

[QUOTE=oldenpolynice]Do you mean this season? He's definitely Top 10 this season, that's not even a question. Being a Top 5 center right now is definitely something that is attainable for him. There aren't a whole lot of great centers in the league right now.[/QUOTE]

I meant all time.

Wow. I don't know about that. Wilt, Shaq, Kareem, Hakeem, Russell. I like Oden and all. But his potential isn't THAT high at this point.

I disagree. Oden has the potential to dominate every aspect of the post. he can play both ends, has good lateral movement and reaction. his offensive post game is already blossoming and his defense will be legendary if he stays healthy. he's only 20 years old and his game is well beyond his years. he's a complete center and if he reaches his potential he could handle any of those guys in his/their prime.

I'm stoked. I get to see Oden in person on Monday when he comes to Arco. Hope he gets at least his standard 20 minutes (if not more).

I might get tix to see the trailblazers playing the clippers next weds...
