Greg Oden: "I'll be remembered as the biggest bust in NBA history"

[My neck and my back]

Has any team took more L's than Portland when it comes to drafting?

Pass up the greatest Shooting Guard of all time for a injury prone Center only to turn around and take another injury prone Center over the greatest Small Forward of all time

He probably really hit the bottle when his college teammate Mike Conley got reupped for $30 mil a year this past summer

Oladipo?
Noel?
Otto Porter?

Adam Morrison?
Marvin Williams?
Sean May?
Eddy Curry?
Darko Milicek?
Dennis Hobson?




Greg Olden and for that matter Sam Bowie were not busts. They were just injury prone. Their bodies could not do it, but when they played they were decent.

Not Gonna Lie I Woulda Took Oden Over Durant lol

Oden is good on the bust label cause without the injuries he was productive and would probably be averaging 20/13 right now if his health would have been better.

 

[Only On Camera]

At least when Oden was on the floor you saw the potential. But it doesn't help him that KD was taken right after him.

Bennett was all around when he was in the league.

This is the true answer.

Olowakandi was ...

Drafted over perennial all-stars Vince Carter, Paul Pierce, Dirk Nowitzki

Drafted over productive starters Antawn Jamison, Mike Bibby, Rashard Lewis

Drafted over solid rotation guys White Chocolate J-Will, Al Harrington, LaFrentz

Drafted over flashes of potential knuckleheads Larry Hughes, Bonzi Wells, Ricky "Self Rebound Triple Double" Davis

Drafted over culture icons like stepped-over-by-AI-but-now-Championship-Coach Tyronn Lue and Super-Sus-With-Stevey-Franchise Cuttino Mobley.

Oden we don't even have a big enough sample to know if he woulda sucked if he was healthy. When he played, he could catch the ball, dunk, rebound, and block which is all they wanted.

Kandi-man we have a big enough sample to know that dude just flat out sucked. How you have a career 43% FG% as a 7 footer? Not even bytch ass Hibbert's is that low.

Oden trying to do that jedi mind trick reverse psychology.
