It's bullshit...The ref. should have called a 3-second violation...Greg Oden stayed inside the paint for 13 long seconds w/o any opponent...FYI: You could only stay inside the painted area w/o having a violation if you have an opponent to guard...This video is a big CRAP...Ya heard?!?!? CRAP!!! C-R-A-P!!!
He fouled like 15 times in the title game and the refs wouldn't call them. He will have to learn not to foul in the NBA. Florida's bigs did well against him both times they played.
Greg Oden is extrememly overrated, in my opinion, he plays with little emotion. He barely seemed interested during the title game against Florida. I really don't think he will do that great in the NBA, but who knows.
Joey Dorsey of Memphis thought Greg Oden was overrated until he had to play against him. The next day he told the papers that he had been wrong, saying "I didn't know he was that strong." By the way, NBA scouts don't think he's overrated and no one that follows college basketball thinks he's overrated.
I follow college basketball immensely, so don't make a false statement like that. I watched him again and gained more respect for him and I reconsidered my opinion. He is a very good player, I'm just not sure if he will do well in the NBA.
Thats Oden's personality. Hes level-headed ALWAYS. His personality didnt prevent him from doing as well as he did in that Florida game. I think having that personality in the NBA means that Oden wont get down on himself like a lot of players would if some things go wrong during his first few years in the NBA. And Oden did show quite a bit of emotion this season with OSU after blocking shots. I'd much rather Oden have that personality than like a Latrell Spreewell personality.
Overrated?? His performance against Florida suggests otherwise. Greg Oden is a significant game-changer. The difference in his impact this year with Ohio State when he was in the game and when he wasn't in the game was huge.
There's no such rule, moron, you can stay in the block as long as you want on defense. And the dumb "near the player" illegal defense rules only applied to the NBA.
nice three second violation dude.
