    This is new news? Although, the preceeding 104,761,492 threads stating the exact same thing must have been a warm up for yet anooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooother "Oden will be a great player" thread.

    [yawn!]

    The portion I was particularly encouraged about was Nate's indication to increase Oden's offensive touches. Seemingly, no more of the "we just want Greg to focus on D" mantra.

    I'll leave the meaty-ness of my post to MM, but did they say we have an "inside-out" offense?

    With Roy out that should be exactly what we are doing. LMA should be getting 18-20 touches a game in the post and Oden should get 10-12 shots. Let everyone feed off the double teams. Both bigs can pass and will open the game up for the rest of the team.
