Oden: 16 points, 7 boards, 2 blocks in 16 minutes before fouling out. Come on refs. I don't want to watch this crap, and I won't if the real refs aren't brought back into action.
Antonio Harvey was commenting on his poor body language and lack of confidence on the radio. That's what I was commenting on.
More proof at how horrendous the refs are. Who wants to watch scrubs? Now I see why Nate is leaning towards bringing Oden off of the bench, considering the clowns blowing the whistles.
Roy is the other Blazer who has had a great 4th quarter. He is doing all he can in his limited minutes.
I was definitely being reactionary. I'm not completely right in the head when it comes to Oden...want the guy to be a consistent beast more then I can possibly say. The whole Oden is a bust thing made me very bitter and over protective when it comes to Oden. Ridiculous I know.
You haven't been following preseason have you. Prior to tonight he had 12 fouls 118 minutes. Joel had 10 in 76 minutes.
Yes, I have been following the preseason. I've seen the obscene amounts of fouls called. That Oden hadn't yet been a victim of this is a secondary point. Have you followed the preseason? It doesn't appear so to me.
Plus, Joel's fouls aren't the issue to me. It is protecting Oden's foul trouble. You haven't been following this board, have you?
