Ask any expert, read any column.....

Everyone always compares Oden to Ewing and they always say the same thing

Oden is further developed than Ewing ever was in college and thats after 1 year, not the 4 that Ewing stayed

Oden vs Durant

Quote:
Kevin Durant is no Greg Oden. Hell, Patrick Ewing is no Greg Oden. And Patrick Ewing was a pretty good pro, no? Almost 25,000 career points. More than 11,000 rebounds. Eleven All-Star Games. Hall of Fame. Ewing was one of the best centers ever.

Oden's better. Or he will be better. Oden and Ewing put up almost identical numbers in their final year of college, but Ewing was a senior. Oden was a freshman with one good wrist. That was their starting point.
Just like I said, everyone compares the two and says how Oden is so far advanced from were Ewing was because Ewing was a SR and Oden was just a Freshman.

You can read the rest of the article about Oden vs Durant...but that was the part abour Oden vs Ewing

If you google it you will see 100's of articles just like it, or look on ESPN, the opinion on this topic is pretty much agreed on.
