I really don't think he will reach his full potential anymore... He could have been growing and learning more, but those injuries have made him irrelevant since 2007. I know his skill is there, but I think his window is gone; I hope that I am wrong.
oden doesnt look like a bad player, you can see he has post moves in his game, yes portland mest up by getting oden over durant but i think he's going to be a decent center the can possibly average PPG:12-14 RPG:9-10 BPG:2
idk why people r attacking this dude so much lol.. he's been injured his whole career. Shaq is the best center ever but no one has seen Oden at his best.
@sheikh03 Shaq best center ever? Mmmmh, sure he is a top5. But are you saying he is above Kareem, Hakeem & Wilt? Shaq's competition in the 2000's were Vlade Divac, Antonio Davis, Dale Davis, Brad Miller, Zydrunas Ilgauskus, Jamaal Magloire, and Ben Wallace. Hakeem is way better than him in both ends of the court. Even Shaq admits it.
@BrickLaya100 Sure he is. But he ain't no Hakeem Olajuwon, David Robinson, Pat Ewing or Zo Mourning. I mean yeah Shaq was physically dominant against most players, but even Greg (P)Ostertag gave him some bad time before the Lakers 3peat. If he was drafted in the 80's, just like Hakeem, Robinson & Ewing; he wouldn't be considered such a dominant center. Heck 23yo Shaq couldn't dominate 32yo Hakeem. Hakeem, Wilt & Kareem are better centers than Shaq. Period.
@RaiserDeath lollll 50ppg vs a bunch of 160 lb 6 feet white guys is not as impressive as getting about 30 ppg in 3 seasons with a big man filled NBA in the 1990s vs a developed league.
i dont understand how can people compare oden to shaq. It's a complete nonsense to me. Shaq was a friggin monster. Oden even if healthy would never match shaq's strenght, explosiveness, skills...come on..shaq in his prime-you all know. Just dominant..How can people forget that shaq's dunks used to bring whole basket constructions down. Oden is a pussy. Shaq was the shit
@kentotzz I dont think Roy+Durant would have work on a regular basis. Both are big stars, they want the ball as much as possible and for sure they want it when it counts. They would have ended clashing, forcing the Blazers to chose.
Oden was a good prospect, powerful body, defense close to be "NBA ready", fought hard on the glass, not that bad offensive moves...he could have been the perfect teammate for Roy, but he turned to be an "injury waiting to happend". His health was fine on the NCAA.
@bfahren thats why they had to practice on that.. its a one two punch they can be the best in the west for that ..outside shooting, double teams but it will never happend..... todays rumor portland might cut oden for next season. they should fired the GM or who ever picked him over durant..
@kentotzz Its easy to talk now. But when Durant came to the NBA there were concerns about his body, he was too skinny, too thin. During his first season he was bullied around almost on every contact with regular small forwards (thats why he played shooting guard on many games). Also his shoot wasnt that good.
His last season was the big one, he got into preseason much stronger with a much more polished allaround game.
But back on 2007, not many sport analists thought he was a better pick.
@bfahren i dont think skinny body is the concern. noah is skinny his a center he gurard oden in college.penny hardaway and reggie miller was skinny they lead their teams to finals ..KD is beast in college.. he can easily put 30 pts with out hoggin the ball.. the skinnier the faster he can get, he attacks the rim just like bron,. lot of teams will take KD, portland make the 2 biggest bust ever (bowie,oden) put him in kwame brown, olowaknadi and so on..
@kentotzz Well, it was a problem for him on his first season. So much of a problem he moved to the shooting guard position for half the season because he was overpowered by many small forwards.
Still, dont compare Oden with Kwame or Olowokandi. Those two had many chances to prove themselves and they failed, hard. Oden hasnt been able to play a full season yet and even then, when he is healthy he still put some numbers. A healthy Oden could have been a dominant big man.
@basketball99110 Yeah. In order to determine a bust. I think it takes 4 or 5 years. I'm saying that because look at the Jermaine O'Neal case. I mean remember those years in Portland and after he got traded to Indiana.
Odens got alot of potential to be a Star bigman in the league IF he can stay healthy. hes got the strength, hes active in the paint, he just needs to stay healthy.
@uroblaster how do you know? no ones seen him in his prime. i would probably agree with you but no one can say for sure. he was projected as having a 35 point season this year if he had never sustained injury in the first place
@jordanf997 you obviously never seen shaq play in his prime. he is also a HOF. yes if oden didnt get hurt, he probably the most be a superstar but not a HOF caliber!! shaq has been compared to alot of great top centers and now oden. pls....
@uroblaster ive seen him in his prime.... who hasnt? just because YOU think shaq is better doesnt mean he is.. ur not the final authority on all things basketball.. jeez
@jordanf997 whatever.... seriously if you really think that oden is better or even had a chance when he was healthier i have nothing to say.. well its a free thing you can think or say whatever you like. not here to argue just my opinion..... you know its like saying james is better than MJ... yes james is a superstar but he will never reach that standard where Mj is at.. you get what im trying to say?????
@uroblaster yeah i get it. im just saying we will never really know because he probably wont ever fully recover. and i dont think that oden is a lebron as mj is to shaq tho.. but i get the idea. im just an oden fan who would like to think he has the pontential that portland saw when they drafted him... but im not gonna tell you to stfu like that poptart dude cause your probably right. id just like to hope , y'know?
@uroblaster no one has ever seen Oden in full condition playing yet so stfu. Who knows he may be better then Shaq when his prime comes, No one can say no or yes
i hate that when players like shaq and stoudamire try to "send a message" to a young guy like greg oden like trying to dunk on him and tryin to rip him empathically an stuff an then he dunks all over them like at 1:24 and he swings up his legs and accidently gets them in the face they act like its a crime like wat he cant send a message back to you? shaq used to do that crap to yao when yao was a rookie too
So you are suppose to play bad ball against new players?It's kinda some tough love thing i think, lol.If Oden gets really good he might do that to some upcoming rookies.
@tamsir78 Umm no, Shaq didn't have his fat body to throw into people. Their builds were similar and Oden is strong as hell. Shaq looks way dominant after 15 years of weight lifting. Oden is young here.
i hear oden is at 275 and is doing alot of drills off 1 foot and his vert is getting up there. hes had a women now for a while and maybe she is working him out? oden will bring us a championship. teams hardly win without a legit 7 footer. since the ShaQ 3-peat, theres been 03' duncan, 04' wallace, 05' Duncan, 06' Shaq, 07' Duncan, 08' Garnett and 09' bynum/gasol. and like all these teams the big man had great teammates around to spread the load. god willing next year we get it. i say 11' Oden
comeon dude oden the next shaq, shaq was a monster starting his rookie yeari mean oviously odens been here for like 2 or 3 years now i think he will be a average players but lot are expected from him since he was the first pick and durant was the second though durant is doing hella good though
I think Greg oden will improve this year he will play better. this is his rookie year too. and coming back from knee surgrey come on now cut him some slack foreals. he didnt play for like a year because he didnt wanna hurt his knee
HAHAHAHAHAHA what a BUST. Gets injured!!!! I dont feel sorry for him at all. This guy was a ignorant prick, not a class act at all. I feel sorry for Roy, having to play with a bunch of losers in such a shitty city.
that last foul was kinda bull.. just like all season he had to deal with it.. i dont blame greg if sometimes he gets depressed trying so hard and getting called for every foul. i mean ya some fouls he does do clearly, but alot of them are weak, like being called for fouling yao, when alls he did was try to post up on defense with him,
oden had better numbers then lopez AND gasol if you go per minute production. Oden was getting 8.9pts 7 rbs 1.1 blk in 21 mins. AND HE WAS STILL GETTING HIS WIND ALL SEASON LONG. NOBODY CAN SAY THATS BAD FOR A ROOKIE, PERIOD. AND he is just a BEAST! 9/10 big men cannot handle him, let him finish a 2nd year as a leaner meaner ODEN.
Give him time.. Its not easy for a 7 footer .. if he doesn't play good in the 2009-2010 season then I will agree he sucks.. We have to see how he develops.
Sk8ergod give oden time he just turned 21 hes young and growing into his body and unlike Durant, Oden wasnt asked to win games there working him in slowly. I bet next year he will be better in every area.
oden sucks bad why in the heck was he drafted first i mean look at wat the second pick is doing right now kevin durant is like 4 in scoring in the leauge well th traiblazers really screwed up on that pick
u guys are haters cause this man fuked up his hand and messed up his knee and still plays at the nba level wait till next season with out injuries he will be defensive player of the year.
How is Greg Oden a bust?? He's learning the game and he's only 21 yrs old. Plus, he's a part-time starter and don't forget this year is his first year in the nba .. he's still a rookie..
ur right oden wont be the next shaq, he'll just be oden just remember oden is a rookie when shaq was a rookie he messed up some times as all rookies do, but they learn
Nigga Please, He ain't even better than Al jefferson in 2 to 3 yrs... We all know dat boy Yao is the beast in the paint, Chinamen takin over NBA like SARS....
just give oden more time, he will be on fire...shaq wasnt that good at first but as he goes on and on, he became dominant..like how shaq had gotten stronger, oden would be more powerful and more solid
Oden has real potential once he learns some other moves besides the hook. There won't be a center as dominant as Shaq has been through his career for a long time, just look at his stats. Dwight Howard is as good as we're going to see. Oden will always be a defense and rebounding beast, and that's all that most would want from their center. The scoring is bonus.
if he could stay healthy he would be a all star i bet

NOBODY CAN SAY THATS BAD FOR A ROOKIE, PERIOD. AND he is just a BEAST! 9/10 big men cannot handle him, let him finish a 2nd year as a leaner meaner ODEN.

Give him time.. Its not easy for a 7 footer .. if he doesn't play good in the 2009-2010 season then I will agree he sucks.. We have to see how he develops.

Sk8ergod give oden time he just turned 21 hes young and growing into his body and unlike Durant, Oden wasnt asked to win games there working him in slowly. I bet next year he will be better in every area.

oden sucks bad why in the heck was he drafted first i mean look at wat the second pick is doing right now kevin durant is like 4 in scoring in the leauge well th traiblazers really screwed up on that pick

Poor Oden, people expecting him to play like some mega super all-star. Slow and steady wins the race, wishing Oden the best.

greg oden sucks he's such a bust.
totalcatlover 2 years ago
How is Greg Oden a bust?? He's learning the game and he's only 21 yrs old. Plus, he's a part-time starter and don't forget this year is his first year in the nba .. he's still a rookie..

LOLOL Gyro is correct. Lets just stop pretending Oden will become the next great big man. Hes a poor mans Ben Wallace at best.

Shaq as a rookie = 23/14/2/3.5 blocks/81 games
if Oden puts up on season like that in his career ill call him a success
alexstr 3 years ago 2
ur right oden wont be the next shaq, he'll just be oden just remember oden is a rookie when shaq was a rookie he messed up some times as all rookies do, but they learn
TeRRoRx503 3 years ago
Shaq as a rookie would have beat Oden worse than this year. Shaq has declined too far to gauge this.

True, it's too early to judge Greg Oden, but we all know he ain't the next Shaq.
Knightmare2k6 3 years ago
did you see his game vs the knicks tonight 17 pts 12 rebs and 6 blks
miteyboosh23 3 years ago
please, shaq and amre hardly schooled oden in thi video.
trust me, give oden a good year or 2 or even 3, and he'll be right next to dwight howard in term of dominance.
like amare has a whole bag of post moves like duncan, only thing amare is good at is dunking the ball while doing his ghey ass spin move.
greg oden, keep ya head up man, your time's coming.

just give oden more time, he will be on fire...shaq wasnt that good at first but as he goes on and on, he became dominant..like how shaq had gotten stronger, oden would be more powerful and more solid

Shaq posted 23 points and 14 rebs in his first year, rookie numbers that will never been seen again. Ever.

Can't judge Oden yet, it's only his first season.
Stormy2021 3 years ago
I really cannot consider Oden as a number 1 draft pick yet.He had an easy shot when he got fouled and almost anybody could have done that.
That might have been a travel, pretty close.
JSEProduction 3 years ago
Oden has real potential once he learns some other moves besides the hook. There won't be a center as dominant as Shaq has been through his career for a long time, just look at his stats. Dwight Howard is as good as we're going to see. Oden will always be a defense and rebounding beast, and that's all that most would want from their center. The scoring is bonus.
