    I got my eye on Thaddeus Young too. He reminds me alot of Tayshaun Prince for some reason.</div>

    Young used to bench behind me. [​IMG]

    He's really nothing like Tayshaun Prince though. He's not that tall, lengthy, or disciplined defensively. He's a really raw talent at this point. I'd probably draft Brandan Wright, another guy I've had the chance to go head-to-head with over the years, way before I draft Young at this point. His development at Georgia Tech's been pretty disappointing. He's Raw with a capital R.

    the cool thing is that if either of these players have as much impact as LeBron, then they will transform the team they go to. Did we pay much attention to Cleveland before LBJ? I didn't.
    Memphis or Philly or Boston or even Seattle has the chance to become a powerhouse.

    If Boston gets the 1st, they don't need Durant because he's like Pierce. They would get Oden for sure. If it was Memphis, they probably would also trade Oden. I don't know for sure because it just depends on who gets the 1st overall pick. Seattle, Memphis, Boston and Philly would all get Oden. I think Portland though would get Durant. I think Charlotte could get either one to be honest with you.

    thats right now but i think during the NCAA tourney, by the end of it one of the two, oden and durant, would clearly be better then the other. thats what i think.
