Does Greg Oden still have a chance at NBA stardom?

I know I may be the only one but I believe Greg Oden if given the opportunity wil be a future star. He has had a lot ( I mean A LOT) of sugeries and lost some athleticism, bt defensively can still be a stalwart. If he sits out all of this season and come in next year for any team he will be a steal. I truly believe if healthy and motived in 25 or less minutes a game he can average 8.5 rebounds and 2 blocks which is very good in that amount of time. What do you think?

    Imagine a team with healthy Broy, Aldrigde, and Oden?

    Oden maybe has a chance, but i don't think he would be as good as he was in his first couple months in the NBA.

    He would have been better than Bynum had he stayed healthy.

    have not seen thabeet play yet base on the mock drafts around the league, he's no longer something yet length and a few athleticism. some evaluate him to Dikembe yet they say it extremely is even wishful thinking. So, i assume Greg Oden would be the extra desirable one. i think of Thabeet might have his palms complete with the bigger adult adult males of the NBA. in simple terms seem at what take place to Roy Hibbert.

    One problem might be his being in shape. Barely playing any in 2-3 NBA Seasons is going to be hard to get back in shape for. Also even playing 25 minutes could be a stress on his knees. If he can get back in shape and keep his knees in order he could be a steal. But those are major if's.
