Default Re: Way-Too-Early NBA Rookie of Year Predictions

[ QUOTE ]
i watched durant more than enough in college to know he's a great shooter/scorer. his percentages will be fine by next year, and i expect him to be in the 24-26 ppg range.

however, his lack of rebounds and assists has me quite worried. as does the fact that he has put on no weight since college.

ive projected him to carmelo anthony since the draft, and really haven't changed my mind at this point. in fact, im pretty sure denver would not trade melo for durant.

apparently he has put on 12 lbs, which is significant; he probably won't ever be huge, but weighing 235 should be enough to play the 3. it was pathetic that he couldn't bench 185, but he's not freakishly developed like lebron james was at that age.
