    Really? I actually remember looking that up recently when somebody said the opposite and I swore it said Oden had the longer wingspan....maybe i read two different measurements or total bunk info

    One thing I forgot to mention about being at Staples. In the merchandise store, they were selling Andrew Bynum Finals jerseys, lol! You know, with that Finals logo on it. I thought that was hilarious.

    I think I read or heard an Oden quote within the last month saying he's grown taller too. I'll try and find it, unless someone else recalls reading that too. To my eyes, over the TV, Oden looks a little taller and larger than Bynum. Maybe it's more equal in person?
