Draft Day Eve
I just got off the phone with Kevin Durant’s agent and he told me that the 18-year-old just got his driver’s license. Well, I didn’t actually talk to his agent but Durant is now legally able to operate motor vehicles. That’s not the only thing that Durant will be operating either. Durant and his new NBA team will come together tomorrow night and begin a process of putting together a championship winner.
The Portland Trail Blazers are on the clock and now it seems that Durant will be the hot pick. Because of his versatility Durant is the player that will cause havoc to coaches and guys trying to defend him and that’s the sexiness that teams are looking for. They want that “gotta-have-him” pizzazz on hot players in the draft and I think that the Blazers will go that route. If they are smart, they’ll understand that most championships are won with 7-footers. With that being said Greg Oden would be the best option to go first. Who is your pick? You have 24 hours to make the decision.
