Default Re: Draft Day Poll: Oden or Durant?
Oden was picked over Durant because a talented big man "always" goes ahead of a talented small man. Same isn't true of him going ahead of Lebron?

I realize the hype over Lebron was incredible. He was supposed to be Magic combined with Jordan. But Durant is supposed to be a top 5 player of all time--a cross between TMac and KG with much better shooting range. And Oden is supposed to be the best center prospect in 10 years. So the hype over those two was pretty damn high also.
