Considering how shitty the team is at getting him the ball. He has over exceeded anyone's realistic expectations. He's averaging nearly a double-double even though he's not getting many shot attempts and is only averaging 23 minutes a game. Learn the game, then post.
If Nate can get through this period of time without losing the team and a whole new identity, he might be here for a long, long time.
A) You didn't say anything that should be deleted. Just your opinion. B) I wasn't saying that Oden hasn't played well this season. He was masterful in the Chicago game. I was just saying he hasn't played that great the last two games. Gasol and Thabeet used him in the Memphis game and he only got three rebounds against the Jazz. Not his best efforts.
He played badly against Memphis and Utah. If you think he played well, then you have very low expectations of him.
It was dumb to yank out webster, Rudy and Oden during the game. Oden had 3 fouls and wasn't put into the game until midway of the 4th? Right now Oden is the only guy right now showing real grit on this team.
