I agree. The spurs without Manu and Parker are going to struggle mightily on offense.

i agree

The spurs problem last night was they weren't playing the knicks.

True dat.

Way to go out on that limb after Parker went down. That's almost as impressive as the three points and two rebounds Greg Oden finished with tonight.

I've seen the game (no link avaible for the spurs game) Oden was pathetic but he is not in good shape, I think he will step up.

If anyone is seriously doubting Oden can play in the NBA, they don't know basketball.

Question is...

Will Charles Barkley make some stupid outrageous bet with Kenny Smith about Oden never surpassing the 20 pt mark. lol

Oden will be a dominant defensive force, no question about it. Once hes completely healthy and in shape (which still may be months away), I can't think of a young player like him since Tim Duncan, at least in terms of rebounding, man defense, and help side defense.

He is very raw on offense, but its too early to tell if hes just anxious, out of sync, or simply not that good. He has all the physical tools to be a great offensive player.
