If Greg Oden can stay healthy, and we all know thats a big IF, he has the potential to be a great center. He's just had a lot of bad luck with the health, get 100% healthy oden and than show the league what u can do
I LOVE Bynum (No Homo) He is my favorite center in the NBA (Too much people like Howard) but I Have to admit that Oden is stronger and more athletic than Bynum. If he and Roy are able to stay healthy for at least 3 years and Wallace stays in Portland as well, they will have a GREAT shot at making the finals.
Bynum always seems to get hurt. Think of this trade, Bynum matt , character, ebanks and 2 future 2nd round picks to the nuggets for carmello and nene. Then this off season sighn oden to a 3 year deal worth 7mill. Trust me, when oden is healthy and playing he was considered top centers in the league.
Lakers should trade bynum for multiple draft picks or for a superstar like carmell anthony , then sign oden this off season. Oden is really good , hes just had bad luck with injuries. I still like bynum though
If these 2 could stay healthy, Dwight would have some serious competition for best center in the game. Oden's got tons of potential but just can't seem to stay healthy. Last year was starting to look like a breakout season for him until he injured himself again. Bynum is a beast on the boards and can score pretty well on the inside. Not to mention he's a big guy even for a center.
greg oden played about 24 minutes a game last year and averaged 4 fouls...if he played 35 minutes a game as a healthy starter he would foul out at least half the games of the seasons. guy is overrated at defense, he just hacks.
he hasnt had a chance to get used to NBA speed thats why. if he stays healthy for long it will come to him. Last year he averaged 2.3 blocks a game before his injury so im not sure about the "he just hacks" part.
@RazaIsCool He also gets a few crap calls since he's the new kid on the block, while others who are considered stars can kick you in the balls and nothing called. If he were to stay healthy, play more, get use to the game and have the refs get use to him the foul problem would solve itself.
@RazaIsCool he hacks? haha. apparently you don't watch any NBA basketball...refs treat Oden like a p.o.s. Ticky tack fouls are at least 50% of his fouls...they never let him play. He's overrated at defense? haha that's why he was 1st in the league in blocks before he went down?! yeah stop with the ignorant speeches, and do ur homework next time. The dude was beastin. Ur an underated ass hole.
Those guys did nothing to get a ring let alone 2. so just saying someone has a ring means nothing. Not saying Bynum isn't good, he is. But there are much better players than him who do not have rings because they didn't get paired with other great players like kobe and gasol.
No he didn't. The pivot foot didn't move until he was jumping off the floor. That's like calling a travel for a guy jumping off one foot for a lay up.
Both of those players are going to have breakout seasons this year. Oden will be the better player in the long run, but Bynum won't be bad by any means.
@McLarenF1God yeah. looks to me like your dead wrong bynum is a injury prone guy but oden is ridculously injury prone, he cant string together ten games!!! bynum has more potential and struggles with his weight much less.
Exactly, at this point Bynum's more developed offensively. Then again, he's been on the court much more than Oden to develop his offensive game. Oden looks like he has more talent and potential though imo. His size and quickness would allow him to be more dynamic offensively, but right now I'd have to go with Bynum too.
@TheFloppyDog1 Oden has played a combined total of 82 games for his CAREER. Bynum never got an injury until that fluke at memphis. the year after kobe ran into him when he was recovering from it and messed it up even more. oden didnt even play a single game his rookie season. wtf you talkin about??
he straight up outplayed bynum right out the gate that laker game he got hurt 13 mins in. Oden IS A SPECIAL CENTER, NAME 1 CENTER IN THE LEAGUE WHO IS EVEN CLOSE TO A DEFENSIVE PRESENCE SINCE DWIGHT? THATS RIGHT THEIR ISN'T!!!!!! ODEN IS A RARE BREED OF BIG MAN. HE LOVES TO BANG AND TRUELY DEFENDS THE RIM, TEAM USA SAID HE WAS THE BEST REBOUNDER AND RIM DEFENDER IN TEAM USA MINI CAMP!!!
not really. check again. first game of the season. Oden already had 5 rebs and 1 block on bynum before he twisted his ankle. bynum didnt do shit. then oden schools bynum here again
C'mon, give the guy a break. It takes two years to fully recover from microfracture surgery. Oden's vertical was measured at 34" coming out of college. He'll be just fine.
Damn i miss that guy being healthy.
