This is the worst No. 1 pick in the NBA, but it is such a parallel player who dares to bully him twice when he sees him. The Trail Blazers manager said that even if he chose 10,000 more times, the number one pick in 2007 would be Oden.
Even because of his existence, Durant's draft report had a slightly humiliating statement. Without James and Oden, he could have been the No. 1 pick every year for the past decade.
Oden's growth background
How strong was Oden before entering the NBA? In 1988, Greg Oden was born in a giant family in New York. His father was 1.91 meters, his mother was 1.85 meters, and his uncles even exceeded 2 meters. Therefore, when he was ten years old, Oden reached 1.83 meters in height. This innate talent could not be hidden.
Just in the sixth grade of elementary school, Oden received an invitation from the world sports star Old Mike to train with his son Mike Conley. In this way, Oden and Conley not only became childhood friends, but also joined Lawrence North High School together and became the best partners on the court.
In high school, Oden, who was named the best high school student in the United States in his second year of high school, became famous all over the world. A year later, he became the Basketball Master of the Year. This is the only player after James to achieve this achievement in his third year of high school. Oden's ability to lead the team is also amazing. Not only can he pass 22+10 per game, he also led Lawrence North High School to win the state championship for three consecutive years, and scored a terrifying record of 103 wins and 7 losses and a 24 wins and 1 loss in the playoffs. On both sides of the offense and defense, Oden showed unparalleled dominance. His explosive physical talent and mature low-post skills made him an invincible emperor in the mouths of fans.
NBA scouts who came here even persuaded Oden to participate in the draft in advance, but things didn't go as they wished. The year he graduated from high school, the NBA just changed the draft rules, and any player can only run after he is over 19 years old. In 2006, Oden had no choice but to win a full scholarship and joined Ohio State University. Even though he hasn't played in a game, all draft predictions ranked him first. The media even believes that he is the lower limit of Admiral Robinson, and the upper limit is expected to surpass Bill Russell. Although Oden, who had just had surgery in his freshman season, could only play games by relying on his non-usual hands, even so, he explained what talent crushing is. In the March 8th round against Tennessee, he stood up at the last moment and staged a blockbuster that made everyone stand up. In the semi-finals against Georgetown, he left the black and hard Hibert helpless. In the finals and Florida, Oden even won the gods in one game. He beat the inside double towers composed of Horford and Noah with just one hand, and scored 25 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 blocks.
Although Florida, which has stronger overall strength, still ended up laughing, this did not affect Oden's No. 1 pick at all, and no one in the NCAA can compete with this monster.
was selected by the Trail Blazers with the No. 1 pick in the 2007 draft. When Oden took over the No. 1 pick from Stern, fans began to imagine what height the trident formed by him, Roy and Aldridge could bring the Trail Blazers to. But what they didn't expect was how romantic the name of the Rose Garden was, how miserable the story would be.
