    The Buffalo area produced 2 major sport #1 picks this year!

    Way to go guys!!!:

    Ohio State's Greg Oden on Thursday night became the first Western New York native in 37 years to be selected No. 1 overall in the NBA draft.
    Oden, a 7-foot, 250-pound center, was picked by the Portland Trail Blazers, who finished 32-50 last season. Buffalo native and St. Bonaventure product Bob Lanier was the No. 1 overall pick by the Detroit Pistons in 1970.
    The selection of Oden comes just six days after the Chicago Blackhawks picked South Buffalo's Patrick Kane No. 1 overall in the NHL draft.
    Oden is considered the NBA's best center prospect since Shaquille O'Neal and has drawn comparisons to legendary big men Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

        I wouldn't call delivering him in a hospital "producing" him. His basketball career developed here in Indiana.

          I would. We produced him, you developed him, like you said.

            Only matters where his birth took place, yet I'm not a big fan of the NBA, but still follow the LA Clippers--Another Buffalo born team.
            This has been a "View From the 'STONEHENGE'"

              Well he did live here until he was 9. I bet he picked up a Basketball once or twice during that time.

                  No, we need to outsource it to China in my opinion.
