Pretty much everyone said Oden was the right pick at the time over KD.

But there's been tons of revionist history since
the same thing was true of Bowie vs. Jordan too. Especially since he didnt get injured again his senior season.



a big man with past leg injuries, one leg bigger than the other and only stayed healthy one year in college

nah breh kd was the right pick
Oden didnt have any serious knee injuries before he entered the NBA. He had the wrist injury, and that was it in college.

Sam Bowie is more Larry Holmes than Larry Holmes himself ever was. He was too proud/dumb to tell the doctors immediately about his injury. MJ was still shytting on him at NBA Championship Parades a decade later. :mjpls:

I would have taken Oden at the time. :yeshung: but I would have thought hard about it.

Actually thrice, if you wanna go even further back. They passed on Dr.J to take LaRue Martin (to be fair, a few other teams did too, though). :bryan:
