    Oden looks like an adult playing against children. He's grabbing everything he wants.

    I like how Oden isn't pushing it. Immediately when the double team comes he passes it out.

    We have Greg Oden against Joel Flippin' Anthony, and Channing Frye takes a 20-footer. Ugh. We had more time than that.

    Honestly, someone needs to teach Greg Shaq's baseline spin move. All he has right now is the back-down, then skip pass to the wing if he can't dunk it. Baseline spin move, up-and-under dunk!

    This is a good team to start Oden against because they are so small in the frontcourt.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Oden's court vision and passing out of the post looks really good. He seems unhurried and poised. As he becomes comfortable and practiced in his post offense, he's going to be unguardable. One on one, he'll kill post-defenders. Double or triple team him and he'll hit cutters and perimeter shooters for wide-open opportunities.

    Rave reviews in limited sample by Oden. He's made the right pass every time down the court, has had good position (although he needs to coral that ball that Wade was OOB on), and obviously the block and dunk.

    For the late-night film sessions, Oden needs to watch Shaq and Hakeem. Just pick two moves, and practice them over and over. With the baseline spin and Dream Shake (and the dunk), he'd be pretty darned good.
