Debate?

Watching Durant today there is no debate. He's clearly the better player.

Did you watch the games yesterday? Durant started out something like 0-13 from the field, and Oden set a Big Ten tournament record with 19 rebounds. You've got to base your opinion on more than one day of watching basketball.

Why are you only mentioning how he started and not how he finished?

Oden has 0 points in the first half today. If he finishes with 15 pts and 10 rebounds by your logic that's not impressive.

For POTY? Absolutely. Durant's a phenom, but elite players should be able to beat out a gimp :p

I still can't imagine drafting Durant first unless you have a very promising big on your team already.

Oden's increased usage of his right hand recently has had a dramatic impact on his offensive game. Can't wait to see him at 100% (he put himself at 80% in a recent article).

I must have missed Oden's 13 misses... or were you trying to illustrate another poor comparison in your own post?

actually Oden can make a difference even if he does go 0-13 by his defense. But if he's not there because of his inability to stay away from foul trouble, that's just as bad as Durant's 0-13.
