March 23, 200719 yr Tenn only missed nine and I just read that is what cost them the game. If UT shoots 30+ FTs how does that change???
March 23, 200719 yr Nope he will be frowning when memphis beats OSU next round. Memphis tried to give one away tonight, too. Had a little help in the time department, too. Memphis/OSU should be a good game.
March 23, 200719 yr I think it is amazing that the #1 pick all-everything player has only scored over 20 pts. four times this season. As the supposed best big man in the country you would think he would average double figures in rebounds. How much of this is due to the injury, or is he just not head and shoulders above everyone else as advertised. From what I have seen this year, if I have the #1 pick I have to go with Durant.
March 23, 200719 yr ^ I was going to give him the pass with the wrist...but in actuality is is very immature and simply doesn't understand the nuances of the game. Nothing wrong with an 18 year old novice to basketball...bad thing is he will be a lottery pick and still have no real clue as to how to play basketball.

March 23, 200719 yr Are you really basing your opinion solely on stats? You're better than that. OK, how about the fact that most of the times I've watched OSU play, probably around 8 or 9 games, he really hasn't been much of a factor. IMO their doesn't appear to be much dropoff in the Buckeyes game when he isn't on the court. Sometimes I think that they actually look better without him. You can't say the same about UT and Durant. In not trying to say he sucks, but I believe that he is way overhyped at this point. Maybe he just better suited for the NBA where they will clear out for him. As a name player he also won't have to worry about being called for those 5th and 6th fouls.
March 23, 200719 yr Oden may be a machine but he is certainly not a well oiled machine. He has many things to improve on before he is considered a top player. It seems when he goes to the bench OSU is a much better team. He has received a lot of hype but IMO is very far behind in living up to it. I would like to see his birth certificate, he looks like he is 50 years old.
March 23, 200719 yr Tenn only missed nine and I just read that is what cost them the game. Yea out of ONLY 17. 9-17 23-34 I think you are forgeting a thing called, a percentage... OSU made more free throws then their opponent attempted, your going to win alot of games doin that.
