My main man is starting to dominate...

[DaRizzle]

I find it comical that this thread genuinely pisses people off...Nevermind that there are a lot of parallels between Oden and Bynum.

 

[MrJayremmie]

Greg is gettin like 17 and 11 over the last 4 games.

 

[DaRizzle]

So Bynum now has had a 20/10 game 3 out of the last 4. Last week he was named player of the week for the first time. He has scored in double digits for eleven games in a row now. He would have won us the game tonight except Phil took him out with 2:30 left in the first OT even though he was dominating on both sides of the court during that particular part of the game. If he stays in right there we win...not a doubt in my mind.

Anyways his last four games stats are:

vs LAC
42 Points
15 Rebounds
3 Blocks
17/24 FG
36 Min

vs WAS
23 points
14 rebounds
1 block
2 assists
28 minutes

vs SAS
15 ponts
11 reb
4 blocks
1 ast
1 stl
24 minutes

vs CHA (2ot)
24 points
14 rebounds
6 blocks
1 ast
41 minutes

Six freakin blocks tonight! He is also having all these games with minimal amount of time on the court for a starter.

 

[MrJayremmie]

Bynum has been playing at an all-star level over the past 4 games. he is averaging 21ppg and 13.5rpg which is great. Gregory is at 17 and 11 in less minutes than Bynum over the last 4.

Greg is actually averaging like 14 and 11 (around there, not exactly sure) in games where he plays over 30minutes, which is a telling statistic.

Really wow...didnt know that

I know I rip on the L*kers a lot, but anyone who loves basketball can't help to look forward to the next decade with those two going head-to-head. Bynum/Oden could rank up there with some of the greats.

 

[MrJayremmie]

Oden w/ 14 and 14 last night to add to his 17 and 11 average...

he is gettin' about 16.5ppg and 11.5rpg over the last 5.... he is finally starting to get his game back. Physically, mentally, consistantly and all that. Go Greg!

 

[DaRizzle]

^ very nice...LAL/POR next meeting is in POR right?...hopefully no injuries to both teams until then. Both now pretty much have their feet under them

That block he had in the second half from the weak side is the best proof I've seen that Oden is getting back near 100%. He was so freaking high on that block.

are you talkin about the SPIKE where he slapped it out to the three point line? That was nice. He probably had 6 inches to spare on that swat.

Bynum is a very good player. With his monster stat game, he now has stats similar (maybe just a touch better per 48) than an out-of-shape microfracture recovering Oden:

Truth is, both are good, but neither is consistent yet. Of course, they're both still young.

 

[elcap15]

^^ Bynum has better stats than Greg in almost every category.

 

[MadeFromDust]

Bynum also has 3 1/2 seasons under his belt, compared to 35 games for Oden.

no doubt, i think he meant per48, but yeah, bynum has been a beast recording blocks. he still kills greg there regardless.

 

[DaRizzle]

Damn...starting to get scary

27 points
15 reb
2 blocks

10-15 FG

Bynum came off a relatively serious knee injury of his own. But efficiency is clearly in Bynum's favor and has been all season. Right now:

Bynum PER: 20.0
Oden PER: 17.6

I definitely look forward to the Rose Garden matchup though, a ton.

 

[Miksaid]

Bynum's hitting his stride and reaching a new level. Hopefully Greg gets there too but right now it's Bynum > Oden. I've noticed Bynum's footwork is surprisingly improved too, that bastard. However, I think Greg is a superior rebounder.

 

[craigehlo]

10-15 FG

Man, it's sad that Oden has never had that many FG attempts per game. Funny what happens when you feed the rock into the post for a high percentage shot. I guess your coach needs to be a legend like The Zen Master to figure that one out.
