EVANSTON, Ill. ? Greg Oden walked a walk few do last night.
Leaving the court in Welsh-Ryan Arena with a police escort after a television interview, he nevertheless was smothered on the way to the locker room by fans snapping his photo with their cell phones and asking for autographs on everything from a flat basketball to an old sneaker.
They wanted a piece of him for posterity. They didn?t know if they?d ever see him again in the flesh.
