Oden's is no crossover artist _ and he knows it
By ANNE M. PETERSON ? 17 hours ago
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) ? Greg Oden can dunk, but he can't carry a tune.
The 7-foot Trail Blazer has gotten a lot of attention for his rendition of N'Sync's "It's Gonna Be Me." A video of the performance has made the rounds on the Internet.
This much is clear: There's no danger of Oden testing the "crossover" waters a la Kobe Bryant or Ron Artest. In fact, his singing could best be likened to Chewbaca's wails in "Star Wars."
But it was all in good fun.
A little background: The video was shot a couple of weeks ago during a charity event, Greg Oden's Summer Slam. Portland's center is involved with Oregon Mentors, a nonprofit organization that supports youth mentoring programs.
Oden grabbed the mic to showcase his karaoke skills.
