RockPride Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Oden isn't nearly the best yet....he is not seasoned enough, he got exposed bad against UF.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 ^ he's taking after Elliott Perry of Memphis State, and AC Earl from Iowa.Do not forget about Novak, and the red headed kid still at Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatchMeIfYouCan Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Oden isn't nearly the best yet....he is not seasoned enough, he got exposed bad against UF.. So did Noah...Both had 7 points each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 So did Noah...Both had 7 points each.Noah may have had 7 points, but Noah had a much better game. Oden was lost and not ready physically to play against the Florida frontline.... In all fairness to Oden and tOSU, UF has exposed and pounded some quality opponents the past couple of years.

tcat25 Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 The Thabeet kid from UCONN is good but very very raw. He can block a shot from anywhere in the gym with those arms though. Under Calhouns tutelage this kid could be a big time pro prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Watching Thabeet for the 3rd time this season. He still has a long way to go, but the full package is in there. He runs the floor much better than I expected... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$$East-Bank$$ Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 You know what I'd take Roy Hibbert from Georgetown over any bigman in the country. Then Oden-OSU,Noah-Florida,Wright-UNC,Hansboro-UNC, and Morris-UK would round out the rest of my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
