Lightbulb Oden

I just can't believe how big this guy is. Horford keeps trying to post GO up and Horford listed at 6"10 245 looks like a friggen midget next to GO. Oden is a monster and he is only a freshman.

Re: Oden

Oden is amazing. The only question is if he will become Dikembe Mutombo or Moses Malone. His lack of offensive polish leaves me wondering....

Smile Re: Oden

I like GO as an NBA center and agree he needs to develop an offensive game.

But yesterday Horford kicked his ass all the way back to Ohio. Horford is an animal on the court. Unbelievable aggressiveness. If only DMC had half that kind of aggressiveness when he was a Piston. Horford just kept taking it to Oden and the final line showed the results.

I was a believer after he and Noah dismantled the Bruins in the title game last year and now I am even more a believer in Horford. Got to be a top 5 lottery pick when he comes out. He wouldn't go ahead of Oden but he won't disappoint anyone who drafts him.

Quote:
Oden, I am told, has two courses this semester: Sociology and the History of Rock and Roll. His recent exam, he explained, included two essays, some multiple choice, and listening to and labeling 15 tunes.

"You had to name the artists, year, genre and title of the song," Oden said.

Ah, to be young, 7-foot and 280 pounds, with millions and millions of dollars in your future.

The way I figure, he is majoring in finance.
I wonder if Darko is any good at "The History of Rock'n Roll"...

great comeback by OSU and good to see that tennesee didn't rollover and played it all the way to the end. Yeah Oden got the block to end the game, but # 2 all time??? He is only 19 or is it 29, either way he can't be anointed to #2 already, give him time to flourish in the NBA vs some veteran ballers...after all..he may wind up being another big man bust in the NBA ala the khandi man, Joe b Carroll, Sam Bowie, Willam Bedford and must I say darkola. I will let you list the biggest busts as you are good at that.
