    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Ohio State star Greg Oden will enter the NBA draft, his father told The Indianapolis Star in a story on its Web site Friday night.

    The 7-foot center is widely considered a possible No. 1 draft pick, and Greg Oden Sr. said he was he was comfortable with his son's decision.

    "He's the kind of kid that, even though he'll have a lot of money, he needs to do more than just basketball," Greg Oden Sr. said. "They had an exciting season, but why take the chance on him getting hurt?"</div>

    I was hoping he'd stay. Too bad, college basketball was amazing this year with so much promising talent, and now it looks like evryone is going to the NBA.

    Yea, this draft should be deep. Execpt for there are no real good Pg. there is Conelly Jr. and possible Acie Law. but no one PG really stands out. Its a forward draft. Jeff Green, is the only other one, he should be good. But no Steve Nash:)
