Brian Hendrickson take, with quantitative analysis, on Oden's immediate impact on "the game". Good read.

Hendrickson is an astute observer of the game.

It is a bit early to draw conclusions

but it’s also worth noting the trend and watching it. Good work, Brian. And thanks for posting, G_dubs.

Great observations...

I agree with a lot of the write-up and also with shralpsters comment about it being early to draw conclusions. We will see what happens in the coming months.

What I have personally been impressed with is that people who normally run into the lane for a bucket have stopped in their tracks the past 3 games and kicked it out. We have been getting ran over for a long time now, and its good to see even someone intimidate them a little. It showed more in the first two games with oden than the last, but you can see that people no longer consider this a safe place to bring the ball.
