Hooped Up

If Greg Oden is trying to mirror certain aspects of Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing’s game, last night he got off to a great fabulous start. First, Joakim Noah put down a nasty Pippen like dunk in his face and then an inspired Derrick Rose went baseline with ferocity to double Oden’s pleasure.

Don’t go feeling to bad for Oden though, the Blazers blew out the Bulls 122-98 and he finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds.

See Joakim Noah’s nasty work after the jump.
