    Default Kevin Durant

    I was reading up on the guy, and I realize he's 6'10" and is averaging 22 PPG and nearly 10 RPG.

    It mentions also that he's a small forward, but also mentions he's a guard.

    In the nba will he project as a SG or a SF? If he's a SG I could definitely see that being a perfect fit in our system - some actual size at the 2!!!!!!

    Then of course, oden still is super numero uno stupendous.

    P.S. Nbadraft.net projects him as the next Tracy Mcgrady

    I'm pretty high on him right now.


    Who the fuck is Dominic Mcguire

    i would rather have him than oden because this guy can score in bunches, which oden is not capable of i believe at the NBA level. really though i would take either one of them. they both have superstar potential which is what we need to get to the playoffs. anything less would be another disappointment in my mind.

    I watched Durant play numerous times during his junior year in HS at Oak Hill with Tywon Lawson, Jamont Gordon (MSU), and Eric Devendorf. Durant was phenomenal then and he is now. That team was truly above-the-rim basketball.

    I think he's just too tall and light for SG though, so probably a SF. Watch any Texas game you can and see for yourself. Not sure.

    As much as I like Durant; you just cannot pass on Oden if you have the opportunity to get him. We'll see how Greg does at OSU this year as to how strong his offensive game is.

    There's no guarantees any of these guys comes out. Both Oden and Noah have stated that they love college; and Durant reeeaallly needs a little weight on his frame.

    Kevin Durant is a big guard that can hit the 3 ball his question marks is his body type but I don't see that being to big of a problem is upside is out of this world I'd take him if Oden is gone.

    I watched the Texas / Tennessee game this afternoon and DAMN that Kevin Durant kid is good. Hes like the illegitimate love-child of Tracy McGrady and Kevin Garnett . If the Bobcats wound up with him, he could be their SF for the next 10 years.

    I'm with sc0Nes - I'm super high on this kid. More than I am Oden (funnily enough for similar reasons to sc0Nes too!!)

    I've been able to watch him 4 times so far this year.

    While a lot of people see a mix of T-Mac and KG, I actually see Chris Bosh meets Tracy McGrady (80% Bosh to 20% T-Mac).

    If we got him I'd hope he'd play the 4 and EO50 the 5.

    The kid has a wonderful face up game with some developing post moves. He's long, fluid and amazingly quick.

    I love that he works hard, real hard on both ends of the floor and it doesn't matter if he is included in the play or not, he'll still work hard (boxing out, running the court continnually moving).

    He has some handles and his 1st step is nothing short of explosive. He seems really verbal on the court directing traffic and calling things out but not at all over the top. He comes over as a natural leader.

    His choice of shot selection and the fact that he forces some things on the offensive end can be questionable at times but at least he's not scared to shoot.

    This kid is an out and out stud in the making and next to EO50 and Crash could become the best and youngest front court in the entire NBA IMO!!

    I've seen KD play a few times this year and he is a baller. He has future bobcat written all over him. I would love to see him in a bobcat uni.

    If we keep playing well we'll be talking about a mid 1st rounder

    Anybody out there think that Tyler Hansboro will be gone this year? If so do you think he'd be lottery? I don't think he'd go in the top ten this year even if UNC wins it all, but he sure is a beast.
