Greg Oden is developing an offensive game. This is the moment in Jurassic Park when they realize the raptors are breeding.

"They Remember"
The Faith don't panic, the faith freaks out, burns out farms, and torchs small villages in the name of The Faith.
LOL
Please, for the love of all that is holy, please stop using the following: "Book it.", "FTW", "Epic" & "Fail".
...no seriously--stop.
I know right? ;p

He keeps fouling people...
“Yes, but he never fouls in exactly the same way. He’s testing the refs for weaknesses, systematically. He remembers…”

“If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it’s that Greg Oden will not be contained. Greg Oden breaks free, expands to new territory, and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously.

“Don’t you see the danger, Trailblazers, inherent in what you’re doing here? Greg Oden is the most awesome force the planet’s ever witnessed, yet you wield it like a kid that’s found his dad’s gun.”

“Try to imagine yourself in the Rose Garden You get your first look at this “seven foot Oden” as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like B-Rex – he’ll lose you if you don’t move. But no, not Oden. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that’s when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, from the other two Blazers you didn’t even know were there. Because Oden’s a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this… two gigantic, long, strong arms. He doesn’t bother to leave the paint like a wussy…no no. He slashes at you here… or here… or maybe across the lane, breaking your defensive stance. The point is… you are alive when he dunks on you. So you know… try to show a little respect."

Dang it!
I was just about to use that same line
“What’s their growth rate?”
“The Blazers are lethal at eight months, and I do mean lethal. I’ve hunted most things that can hunt you, but the way these things move…”
“Fast for a biped?”
“Cheetah speed. Fifty, sixty miles an hour if they ever got out into the open, and they’re astonishing jumpers…”
“Do they show intelligence?”
“They show extraordinary intelligence, even problem-solving. Especially the big one. We bred eight originally, but when Greg Oden came in she took over the pride and killed all but two of the others. That one… when Oden looks at you, you can tell he’s working things out.”
The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

"Greg Oden doesn't want to be fed he wants to hunt! Can't just, suppress 21 years of basketball instinct."

Greg Oden: Hold on to your butts.

The Clippers announcers think Oden's arms are that long
I’LL NEVER GET OVER IT, they said his arms weren’t very long last year… oooooh steams my britches!

The sad thing
is its all because of that movie, that the poor people of Toronto have a basketball team whose logo looks like Barney’s delinquent cousin.

Is there such a thing
as Fanpost Hall of Fame. I vote this goes on the ballet.
Pryz is the Shyz
expanding to the team
Roland Tembo: The Blazers just fed, so they won’t be hunting for a while.
Dr. Ian Malcolm: Just fed? I assume you’re talking about the Bulls? You might show a little more respect, those men saved our lives by giving theirs.
Roland Tembo: Then their problems are over. My point is, Blazers don’t hunt when they’re not hungry.

On Oden's Knees
John Hammond: All major franchise players have had delays. When they opened Disneyland in 1956, nothing worked!
Dr. Ian Malcolm: But, John. When Sam Bowie came back from injury, he didn’t eat the opposing players.

David Stern: "I was overwhelmed by the power of Oden; but I made a mistake, too. I didn’t have enough respect for that power and it’s out now. The only thing that matters now are the people we love: Kobe and Pau and Tim.
Bavetta, they’re out there where people are dying."

You guys. We need a nickname for Greg Oden
Let’s take Bayless and give TRex to Greg Oden.
The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

Supersaurus?
I asked the foremost experts on dinos, my kids….
And they suggested Allosauros and Ultrasauros, but given its connotation to the sports world, I vote for their third choice…
Supersaurus…
Supersaurus (meaning “super lizard”) is a genus of diplodocid sauropod dinosaur discovered in the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation of Colorado in 1972. It is among the largest dinosaurs known from good remains, possibly reaching 33 to 34 meters (108 to 112 ft) in length, and a weight of 35 to 40 tons.
TRex has short arms…
Oh, what's so great about Oden?
It’s a violent, penetrative act, that scars what it observes. What you call Oden…I call the rape of the basketball world.
