How many players can put up 11/8.5rb/2.3blks in 23 minutes a game? Not many. Ridiculous numbers in limited playing time.

Le Batard gave an update during his interview to say he was getting multiple texts from listeners claiming Oden is on South Beach. Asked his producer to look into it.

Andre Drummond, who some say is one of the best 19 year olds ever, put up 7.9/7.7/1.6 blks in 20 mins.

Damn, Oden was a beast in limited playing time

If by some miracle, oden can stay healthy and put up the numbers he was putting up while playing, this has the potential to go down as one of the biggest days in heat history. It's a whole bunch of ifs but the possibility is there. Imagine getting a 25 year old center who could be the best in the game today if healthy.

All I care about is the defense and the rebounding. Anything you can get from him on offense is just icing

Yepp. I'm gonna go ahead and assume his ability to catch and finish instantly makes him a better offensive player than Haslem or Joel

If he can grab 8-10 rebounds per game in about 20 minutes and block a shot or two...we're golden!

Most of you go from freaking out over him possibly not signing here to having insane expectations for him in his first year. I'll be happy if he sees the court for half the season. He has a long way to go to be a player in our rotation if he signs here. First and foremost, the dude needs to be dead serious about fully committing himself to really getting his career back on track. That means no South Beach, no party, no bad food and tons of hours in the gym and at doctor's offices. That's how far away I think he is.

I saw a bunch of message boards (unknowingly) referencing a fake Greg Oden Twitter account... still haven't seen anything official. :\

this I doubt the Heat going all the way depends on Oden. I would love to be wrong.

Don't know what's worst: fake outlets reporting Greg Oden to the Heat, People believing these fake outlets, or "Spotted on South Beach"

I know for a fact he was on South Beach. Tupac and Elvis confirmed it.
