If Oden declares, and most think he will, then it will turn out to be a very interesting draft. Do you pick a potentially dominating big man? Or, do you pick a potentially dominating small forward?

Durrant is truly the real deal...he can rebound with the best of them (11+ rebounds a game), score at will (25+ppg) and he can play terrific defense. Oden can block the shots, pull down the rebounds and has a nice inside touch. I guess you can't go wrong with either of them...but as of now, I am leaning toward Durrant.

As a sidenote, due to injuries (Bogut missing 10+ games, Villanueva missing 30+ games and Redd missing 30+ games), the Bucks are going to have a good chance at the lottery. If they get it, can you imagine the youth and the potential of the Bucks:

Center: Andrew Bogut
PF: Charlie Villanueva
SF: Kevin Durrant
SG: Michael Redd
PG: Mo Williams

That would be a very fun team to watch.
