Sergio to Greg Oden Monster Dunk Summer League 2007

[jmateen1]

only if this guy can stay healthy!!!

[ScatterMyTimelyAshes]

Hated on even in summer league.  Poor Oden.

[droctagon3k]

the tech was for the backboard slap, not the actual hanging on the rim, you can hang on the rim for safety purposes, the refs will let that go, but it was for the slap at the end.

[jrzy49]

@droctagon3k The tech was for hanging on the rim. He never touched the backboard as you can see in the replay.

[RBJbizzle]

If he didn't hang on, he woulda broke his flippin neck!

[DetroitPistons90]

I know it wad a good dunk but oden has to stop hanging on the rim and getting technical fouls

[pimpsoldier0]

look where he took off from. a lot of forward momentum i dont think letting go quickly would had been safe

[Anaxagoran]

Especially when you consider how fragile Oden is.

[braziliansoccerking3]

sometimes you need to hang on the rim, with that momentum, if he let go early he would have fallen on his back

[bman163]

WOW!!! What an emphatic way to score just two little points!!!!?!#@$#@$?!

[Mikezz91]

that shit sucks...to hang on the rime is something that shows i can dunk and sometimes the hanging on the rime is very aggresive and that is the way i like to watch dunks....with power!!!

so fuck the refs they blow the whistle all the time.

[deadlyErnest1]

stupid refs

[djeroid2000]

I dont even understand why hanging on the rim is a technical. One of the dumbest rules out there....

[Hibbs4Prez]

Its considered a taunt and unsportsmanlike. What's so hard to figure out?

[djeroid2000]

yea but there could be a situation where you have others still standing under you and you could end up spraiing an ankle from stepping on one of the other player's foot....

[bmaccorm]

in which case you wouldn't get a technical...as the commentators..commentated

[jiusan]

yao ming is chinese

[SFO14]

Wow, how gay that they called a T for hanging on the rim. Summer league refs are horrible. They should try dunking from the dotted line with two hands while being 7 feet tall and see if they don't sway a little bit when they grab the rim. Refs suck

[northwestbrett]

who cares if he hung on the rim? it's not regular season refs. that really grinds my gears.

[yoe91]

Portland. If only they could dominate like in the Clyde/Kersey/Cliff-Rob days....I looooved the Sheed/stoud/ dale davis / sabonis / pipp days too....... Oden, bring us back to glory !

[jrzy49]

Dwight Howard and Tyson Chandler are the only other centers who can dunk like Oden.

[jailakee12]

roy hibbert sucks

[aziaticfolife]

howard, oden, yao, bynum.. even kaman and chandler... roy hibbert... ... ..

CENTERS ARE BACK! i love it.

[kuruinteresee]

aziaticfolife ,

Yes! And don't forget Beadrins an Horford.

[123amillers]

Bogut?

[npj1993]

i luv it 2 man

[normanpogi23]

kaman, and bynum

[themaverickfan]

wohooooooo Jose Juan Barea next new thing

[dimedropper1992]

this guy or d-howard

[saucy81]

they will be thier in thesame category together..i know oden hasn't played a min and howard is already on the olympic team but Greg will be up thier with best when it comes down to it

[standuplive]

I agree

[stevenash2300]

One of the few big men I like, Oden is going to be awesome next year.

[FadeAway23]

I heard hes added around 30 pounds of upper body muscle........thats a scary thought

[maxvincecarter15]

Yeah that's right I saw that too! He's a monster.

[S1ZZL3]

nahh, hes more atheletic.

[npj1993]

hes lik shaq minus about 35 pounds

[nocionidunk]

fuck you yumjesusjuice are you stupid motherfucker

[beavfan]

Oden will bring several championships to P-Town. He is The Savior.

Check out the youtube videos of him talking to Bill Russell and Bill Walton, among others. The guy is a sponge and will be one of the greatest ever when he is done.

G.O. is the Man!

[NeoOsiris19]

look at where he took off from! he's even bigger than howard too.

[visaguy12]

Oden Will Be Allstar Starter next year!!

[kingmawuli]

Play some D sergio then he will play u!

[nightfirexxx12]

they did good to pick him 1st overall

[nocionidunk]

sergio come back to estudiantes

[yumjesusjuice]

you can have him back lol

[nocionidunk]

sergio come back to estudiantes

[sunsetbball2]

Sergio is not the point of the future he will probably be gone by next year he plays like 5 minutes every other game

[sikelturko]

McMILLAN, WHAT'S GOING ON?? WHY DON'T YOU CHOOSE SERGIO TO PLAY?? HE NEEDS MORE CONFIDENCE TO IMPROVE HIS SKILLS!! HE'S THE PG OF THE FUTURE!!!

[abbazabba08]

he's 19. this is the NBA, where the big boys play.  get rudy to come over and then maybe he'll get some minutes. right now sergio is not even a top 30 PG in the league.

[Level7even]

him and bynum along with howard and bosh have the chance to renew the big man lineup in the nba

[bball11206]

That wasnt hanging on the rim, what a horrible call, he was only on there for like one second

[smh023]

gelceğin yıldızı!

[mecagoenloscopyright]

tremendo che no lo habia jugar nunca,espero que vuelva pronto porque con el y Roy tenemos equipo para pelear el campeonanto

saludos y vamos los Blazers

[badbulonproductions]

xDDDDDDD

[badbulonproductions]

Sergio Rodriguez the next Steve Nash. And Greg Oden the next David Robinson.

[pimpsoldier0]

Wow the game just started and did u see he had 2 blks already

[FunkyDee]

fuck portland they are no real team turned their back on koponen he could have been a great bench player

[tsandtss]

Are you a moron?

They didn't turn their back on him. They didn't think he was ready for the NBA. They'll bring him over when he's ready.

[FunkyDee]

nah they wont they are backstabbers i asked koponen himself he said that nothing is sure they promised him that he would be playin next season but i guess thats not happenin' either so i'll give my props to portland when they show some love...

[pcgreen]

that is biggest BS i have ever seen on Youtube. Koponen had to fulfill his military obligation and he wasn't ready at all. Sorry, the Finnish league ain't s**t compared to the nba.

Portland balls on haters too, so kiss off ya bloke

[FunkyDee]

aint shit?then i guess u dunno how great finnish league is and if u get a contract with nba u dont have to go to military he has so much vacations from military right now cos he plays in finnish league

[bill4fitz]

i honestly didnt know there was a finnish league. im an above average american sports fan and i dont even want to begin to name a player in this "great league" thats on par with the nba according to you

[FunkyDee]

finnish league is a good league and we have great players if it wouldnt be good why rodman and pippen were playing here?and MJ is coming in a year too

[bill4fitz]

they are 40+ years old...

MJ owns the Charlotte Bobcats, and he has one kid playing in college and another soon to be. Hes not coming, that wouldn't make any sense

[FunkyDee]

ohh believe me hes coming...miami heat might be coming too!!!so its including shaq too and wade.I know MJ owned bobcats thats why it would make sense to see him back in "THAT GAME"

[Erikjr21]

You can have the miami heat. There just embarising there self here. They don't even have shaq anymore poor D wade its going to be a long year

[FunkyDee]

fuck miami shaq was miami but not anymore now his in phoenix

[FunkyDee]

ohh and MJ has been in finland already once but he wasnt playing then

[bill4fitz]

hes not gonna play in finland

[FunkyDee]

he is

[sweet7music]

shut up u idiot, i will die laughig the day that MJ, Scottie and the whole of the Miami Heat pack up and move to Finland =)

[FunkyDee]

did i say that they are MOVING?i said they are coming to ENTERTAIN!i gotta admit...that would be stupid tough i dont even wanna live myself around here

[pimpjunior23]

hey is mj gonna play in the finnish league well NO!!! hahahaahah u dumb fag mj is like 50 and miami heat is staying u dumb dick sucker lmao seriussly if micael was going to finnish fag league it ould be on the news fag

[mikerzt]

lol, finnish team is shit. check out the team from spain...the one with rudy fernandez which we have our rights to next season. as for the other guys, we have 2 more rights to two more international player but when they are ready, we will draft them.

[firerico69]

U dumb ass hes still over seas and what do u expect , they have fuckin 4 pg's right now on there bunch u dumb ass what do u want them to do have half the team be pg's , he isint nba rdy face it

[FunkyDee]

that "nba ready" just is not the right word i think cos if u look it that way kobe was not nba ready on the beginning james white wasnt nba ready and oden got injured but b4 that HE WASNT NBA READY...and blake is the only good PG on portland the other PG's on portland are worse than koponen

[firerico69]

Lmao , r u kiddin me? dude Sergio rodriguez .. they dont call him spanish chocolate for nothing winning titles in spain , Koponen? i dont hear him in world talk ... Plus we have rudy fernandez next year who will prbly play sg or pg and hes better then koponen to... koponen is hella year give him time to develop like everyone else , travis outlaw and martel had to develop for a few years to , they r doing him a favor by leaving him overseas so he atcually see's playing time and develops

[FunkyDee]

finland has great players many of them would be able to play in nba u just dont find players in finland like that cos this country is far from U.S. we got much better players than koponen or möttölä who use to play in nba

[rakista12345]

what if he was in portland the team will be dominating

[AlmondBaller]

too bad his career is gonna be plagued with injuries

[timj012]

haha "plagued?" you know nothing about greg's recovery. shut up.

[AlmondBaller]

oh wow, he recovered. you think thats his last injury. its gonna keep happening throughout his career

[timj012]

psh, bullshit. where is your evidence that you base that "theory" on? has he ever had a season ending injury in the past? NO! has he ever had any problems with his knee in the past? NO! so far things are looking up for him in the future. and players have come out of microfracture surgery and still been good. gregs gonna kill and you blazer haters can get over it.

[Jeremy1281988]

you speak the truth dude. Greg is the truth. He will be fine, he is already WAY ahead of schedule, and he felt good enough to come back if the blazers make the playoffs, but they are gonna keep him out to be safe. He won't be plagued with any injuries, his knee was the only thing i worried about, and it is taken care of, and better than ever, just like his bball game.

[AlmondBaller]

of course he hasn't had a season injury before cuz dis is the first,it starts now and he hasn't even played in the NBA yet. i dont hate the Blazers, i juss think that hes gonna be like Yao Ming or Shaq and have a lot of injuries.

[timj012]

yao ming has a lot of injuries? hahaha, yeah right. and to say that he's gonna be like shaq is a compliment. shaq is a hall of famer for sure. he has never had a serious injury from high school through his frosh year of college. that's what i meant

[ndfightingirish830]

lmao. dumbass.

[petehillie]

lol wat a screen

[freestyle4u]

say goodbye to everyteam if the do get oj mayo

[mikerzt]

oj isn't that good of a player. we don't need a player like him that is going to play selfish and is violent when calls are made on him.

[oleold]

blazers are going to be scary in the future especially if they can get oj mayo next year.

[Roadrunnerz45]

what a waste of 1 yr for oden and blazer fans

[gavropoulos]

I think that Godzila is back in the united states!ODENDZILA!!!

[HawkSoccer10]

He IS gonna be out for the season...You said isn't..

[mmmeee]

sorry guys....but hearing the news that he will not be out for the season due to a very serious knee injury, i can't just imagine how happy Seattle is that Portland picked him instead of Kevin D.

[littlereyrey503]

whatever. blazers are on a 9 game winning streak and the best the sonics can do is beat the 4 win miami heat

[chocofreak13]

:)

-apparently it was too short. so I add length.- stupid youtube. comments are for kids.

[timj012]

make that 12 game winning streak. sonics suck balls

[littlereyrey503]

i know i said that a week ago

[Fox250R]

13 now :)

[littlereyrey503]

oh my god!

[timj012]

damn the streak ended.  but i was at #13. it was fuckin tight

[Mrrrch1nkys]

GOD DAMN! <-- first words that came out of my mouth when i saw that dunk! hahaha

[bill4fitz]

to bad hell never be able to do that again

[pimpsoldier0]

Wat? he is coming back next year. U know he recovers really fast, and they dont wanna rush him in this season because micro fractures surgeries take long time to heal.

[bill4fitz]

kobe and amare stoudamire are the only players to ever fully recover from this injury and maintain the same performance level they had before the injury

[pimpsoldier0]

they are giving him plenty rehab time. The only reason players are not able to fully recover is lack of rehab time for micro fracture surgery

[johndoe827]

"Above the foul line"??? try 3 feet beneath it

[petehillie]

he gets the ball above the foul line then takes 2 massive steps

[atcrossover]

ejop is talking shit. oden just came in the NBA.

[ManuelKobe]

ok, you are right. dwight is stronger

somebody said "dwight howard is the only man in the nba who can hide behind his own shoulders"

:-)))

[ejop1221]

dwight howard is gonna own oden with ease just as he did amare stoudemire. Oden is no where near as strong or has the hops of dwight.

[dorseyballer00]

osu blows

[sagegoleafsgo]

osu is the best

[ManuelKobe]

I think greg would be more like dwight howard, maybe a little bit stronger.

[BioReaper]

nah dwight is a freak of nature

[socfrephil]

Are you kidding me? That looked easy when Greg Oden did it. He caught it above the free throw line, put down to feet and jumped from the circle past the defender and slammed it. This kid's phenomonal.

Kobe is my favorite player, but I don't know if he'll score 65 on 'em next season!

[dutinater]

this kid's a goon

[kablamuel]

hell yeah nba live is gonna be sick!

[rzagold]

screw portland

[blazersfan7]

screw u and ur momma

[Amehl16]

Screw you faggot.

[Quinnfhs07]

i cant wait till the season starts to see him play live is going to be a blessing!

[rzagold]

forreal, portland is going to be NASTY. i don't get it, why portland? i think there is a conspiracy here. seriously, Roy, Aldridge, Oden, Sergio... imagine how good they will be if they can keep all of these guys for 6 years or so. their team was basically built for them, its so dumb. they have the best worst back office in the league (if that makes sense).

the celtics deserved Oden. think about what it would do for the sport of basketball.

[yangsing]

Boston deserved jack for tanking.

[czardexter]

their team was built for them??

the only thing portland got lucky about was getting the no. 1 pick. pritchard had to work his magic to get roy and aldridge. moving up from #4 to #2 so they can get aldridge, and making ainge a sucker by trading telfair for roy. hahah.. ainge is such an idiot.

[strangechord]

Kevin Pritchard is in the running for smartest GM in the NBA. No doubt about it. If you missed his draft wizardry in 2006 that took a #4 pick and some trash and turned it into Lamarcus Aldridge at #2 and Brandon "Rookie of the Year" Roy at #6. The guy is a genius. Roy is so freaking amazing that his mere presence wins the lottery for Portland bringing us Oden.

[bill4fitz]

not nemore

[strangechord]

When I think about how good portland could be in 2-3 years I just cry tears of joy. I don't care if Paul Allen has to sell his kidneys he has got to keep Roy, Aldridge and Oden for at least 10 years. 10 sweet delicious years of Blazer playoff runs and probably a banner or two barring a major injury or any of the guys leaving. I don't think they will though honestly they are in the best place they could be for their age. With one another on the same team. Man I can't wait for the pre-season.

[clogger3030]

Greg Oden is SICK! What a BEAST!

[rzagold]

Olajuwon is the most talented center in modern NBA history.

[leonathanwayne]

true, but Shaq is the most dominant I believe

[rzagold]

what are you talking about? no doubt, he has the potential to be a great center, but the NBA has had dominant big men like him before. Russel, Olajuwon, Shaq, Ewing. He is like a less nimble Olajuwon.

[linknlog]

He doesn't have the offensive game of Olajuwon, but he is already bigger and stronger. I see him as being kind of a combination of Olajuwon and Robinson (assuming he reaches his full potential, which I suspect he will).

[tc16169]

That dunk is just scary.

Mark my words: Oden has the potential to be something unlike anything the NBA has seen before.

[midnitemind]

SWEET.
