Default Oden

The guy is a monster.
A little polish required on the offensive end.

He is so mobile, has great timing, monster rebounder. 2 years and he will be beating up most of the centers in the NBA. Shaq will retire. This guy will make it clear to Shaq his best days are gone.

Oden had a monster block, but i still say conley makes that team go. He had some absolute mind-boggling passes.

Whatever happened to that guy?? Is he playing in Europe, or living off his failed NBA career. HE was pretty cool however and a great college player.

I am now not so sure about what I have deemed a very good basketball player. I have read some interviews because Ohio State is playing in San Antonio and one very important aspect is coming to the surface. I dont know if this kid really likes basketball. I really dont. Durant lives basketball. He loves the game and wants to know everything about it, everything. Oden does not. The talent is huge. I am questioning the desire now.

This has now become very interesting for me.

I sort of agree that his true passion for the game doesn't seem to be there. I have always wanted him to stay at OSU for another year or two, but I I think he just might need another year or two. His play and drive in the tournament have not been there, and more development on his skills might be what he really needs...
