Start from Jan. 10 and look at points, rebounds, and blocks. Points were streaky at times, but you can't deny the fact that he was playing pretty solidly that year. He even took over Theo Ratliff's spot in the starting lineup (before Theo had the season ending injury), and this was back when Ratliff was considered one of the best defensive players in the league and led the league in blocks the year before. I'm not saying he's a Tim Duncan or a Shaq at all, but he has the potential to be a pretty damn good center and if the Blazers can get their coaching staff to work off that potential they won't need Oden, who despite the hype is still a rookie. College ball and the NBA can be two completely different worlds and you never know if a college star is going to be able to handle it. I don't doubt that he's a solid first pick, but I think Durant would be better suited for the team.

so what? he played a good strech of ball. he averaged 2ppg and 3 boards. he has potential to suck. thats about it. the sad part is for a guy with his size to suck so hard is unbelievable. Everybody in the nba is capable of playing streches of good bball. Just cause someone has a few decent games doesn't make them a good player. the only way for someone to trully prove they are good is to show it through consistancy. If he was as good as you hold him to be his averages would reflect that much more so than they do. Regardless- arguing with you over some bum is pretty lame so whatever.
