re: Greg Oden to host 2 or 3 teams depending on who you ask.

Greg Oden's agent, Bill Duffy, told me Oden will probably pick a team next week and all teams interested remain under strong consideration.

And that's what you'd expect to hear, because despite Sheridan's incorrect reporting, Miami CAN offer over $3 million, it'd just be painful to with the 3.75 x tax rate. The more the Heat think they have a lean from Oden, the less money they'll offer. And that's a reporter from the Miami Herald who would have every reason to sunshine pump an Oden lean.

It is really down all to personal preference. If he wants to play with the very best of the best, probably win a ring (before the team starts to fall apart), but have a tremendous amount of scrutiny on him, he goes Heat.

If he wants to have A LOT less pressure on him and to grow with a young team, and make slightly more guaranteed money, its us.

Really a personal preference. I don't know his finances. Most of the time I would want to go for winning that championship, but he might not want that kind of pressure. Who knows.
