I dont watch any of the twolves games so i dont know for sure, but his stats and age sure look pretty 20-10 guy with almost 2 blocks per game and only 23 years old? Not too shabby imho.</div> No, his defense is pretty bad (or was with Boston, at least) but that doesn't mean he's not a decent option at that point, as a talented young player you could eventually build an elite team around.

Sorry guys... I was here last night up until 9:30 waiting for JIGGA lol.. I went to bed early 'cause i had to go sign me up for school and stuff early this morning but im back. Also what do you guys think of bynum? And who would you take Bynum or Oden (Has never played an NBA game.)

Bynum isn't a defensive anchor or franchise player. He averaged 13 and 10. Would you have drafted Bynum over Oden if you had the chance?
Bynum is a good center to have, but he's 2nd round talent. Picking at the end of the first, you could have taken Paul Pierce, and then picked up Bynum with your high-2nd.

Would you have drafted Bynum over Oden if you had the chance?</div> Are you kidding me? The A-train is a beast defensively. I cant believe you just said that. Defensively he is sound, but offensively is where he needs to improve and tell me if the Blazers had Bynum instead of Oden people wouldnt be calling him a "Franchise player" too.. come on now. And yes he did average 13ppg, BUT he really didnt need to score for that Lakers team. Also to answer your other question i dont think most people knew how good Bynum could be and how quickly he would start to Blossom so we didnt hear as much fuzz with him unlike with Oden and people calling him the next " Tim Duncan" So if I had to pick one i probably would have gone with Oden, But for this game and where Bynum is at this point today and where Oden is at right now, I would go with Bynum %100. And how can you call Oden a " Franchise player" or a defensive anchor if he hasnt even played a game yet!! YOU JUST CANNOT DO THAT!

I NEED to see how Oden plays first to make that decision, but at this point Bynum is the proven/better player.
