    I remember reading the article where he is quoted saying something that he'd take Oden but he wouldn't rule out Durant if he thought he was going to be special. I think that's the gist of what he said, but I don't remember where I read it.

    He said something basically like:

    You draft a true star first, otherwise you go with size. So you go with Oden because of size, unless there is a potential superstar with a smaller player, like Durant. I don't think he even named names, though, I think the reporters did.

    Maybe this is why Cuban got fined as much as he did. The NBA makes some strange moves against Don Nelson. The technical @ Washington, and now this. I am against fining people for making comments or speaking, especially like this. NBA players/people especially need to be careful for some reason. David Stern is tough.

    Eh... it could be worse... if he was just a little more tough he'd be hitler.

    Knowing David Stern, that wouldn't be entirely impossible [​IMG]
