    It's way too early in the season to know how anything is going to shake out, but I'd like to think that with time and confidence the sky is the limit for Greg.

    Well, I will be ecstatic if he averages 14 points, 13 rebounds and 3 blocks per game. And those 14 points, 10 of them are from offensive rebound and stuff at the rim. :D

    The way it looks so far Greg may be best suited to be a garbage scorer this season. My only fear is two years from now is that he becomes lazy and start thinking he should be jacking up three's.

    Or you could go even further. Our Centers are averaging 16 boards, 5 blocks and 18 points. Not too shabby. :D

    Oden looks a lot more agile and he seems to be making better choices on defense.

    LOL at having Oden and Przy, and not having a center on the floor for 8 minutes a game.

    Considering what he's come through, Greg's done well in my book. . .

    That is odd, as is playing Blake and Miller at the same time when you have Roy and Rudy.

    And what's crazy is it's actually happened. When I saw Miller and Blake on the floor together, I was like "WTF?!?!?!?!"

    Our centers wouldn't get quite so many rebounds if Aldridge would just get a few.

    So what? As long as we outrebound the opponent convincingly, I have no problem with him leaking out -- I wish we'd look to make outlet passes to him more often though...
