Greg Oden's mohawk

submitted by Yardbarker
March 18, 2008  |  30 comments  |   Email to a Friend
Barack Obama was not a fan of the big man's mohawk. Neither were Grizzlies teammates (and Yardbarkers) Michael Conley and Hakim Warrick, both of whom wish the hairstyle would go back to whatever hole it crawled out of (most likely also occupied by Mr. T). This video of Warrick and Conley railing on the mohawk also includes a surprise "cameo" from an NBA All-Star.

- Dewey

PS: Thanks to the Yardbarkers who pointed out that Greg recently shaved the mohawk. Even still, the video is worth watching... for the All-Star "cameo" if nothing else.

Unless he's going for the Mr. T look it needs to go.

I'm a fan of the Grizz but I gotta disagree with Hak and Michael on this one. The mohawk is a great look for G.O.

I think the mohawk looks great on Greg. He's not a freaking investment banker. Let him have fun with it.

I saw go. Once he's playing and dominating, he can do whatever he wants with the hair. But for now, concentrate young man.

Needs to go because it does not compliment him. It is just not that attractive on him (in my opinion).

I like the clean cut mohawk he had in the video when he introduced Laura Bush. He can keep it as long as he keeps it like that.

considering that I saw him on Saturday with the mohawk gone, I'd say "cut it" just so I can be right.

Greg's mohawk was great. It looked awesome. Anyone who didn't like it have never had any style or fun w/ their hair in their life. Greg's 20 years old and make a pretty good living (so I hear) playing basketball. HE CAN CUT HIS HAIR HOWEVER HE WANTS.

I agree. Mohawks are great. Individuality is even better.

i love it. he's just a kid why not let him act like one.. plus.. is it really hurting anyone? and PLEASE can we stop talking about hair! talk about what a great person he is and how modest he is.. and maybe basketball.. that might be a good topic.. but seriously.. this isn't vogue. and thats coming from a girl

I like Greg Oden, but that hair is atrocious. Not everyone can wear the mohawk.
