I haven't seen anyone mention it, but Oden and Gordon played AAU ball together in high school. Oden was a year older than Gordon but they all played together, along with Mike Conley, for the Spiece Indy Heat. I saw them play in the Reebok Big Time tourney in Vegas in the summer of 05. They, of course won the tournament.
Just another thing to think about when wondering how NOLA got in on Oden. Former AAU teammates seems to be a big deal for these guys.

Doesn't Gordon keep talking about how he played AAU with Tyreke and Jrue?
