I remember hearing Oden say that he didn't like facing McRoberts. He always gave him a hard time, or something like that. Not sure where I heard this though.

They're apparently good friends, because they played against eachother in high school a few times and actually wound up on the same AAU team as upperclassmen.
Found it. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He is one of the funniest people I have met, and the one person in high school basketball that I dreaded playing, because I had to guard him and he is a monster. He uses both hands on the court. That gives him an edge on everybody else. He was here for a day so I got to hang out with him.</div> Source
Looks like the best possible pick, unless a better big man slips. This is a draft where we NEED to take the best big man available, NOT the best player available (UNLESS we let Carter go, sign a decent/good big man with the cap space/MLE and draft a talented shooting guard).
