The biggest question on every Blazers fans mind is "Who will be the Blazers 1st round draft pick?" Everyone knows it will be Greg Oden or Kevin Durant. Which brings to the next big question, "Who's the better fit in Portland?"
Greg Oden is without a doubt the biggest name in the draft, but does he fit? Blazers signed Joel Przybilla too a five year 32mil contract. I dont think Joel is going to be a type of player that Oden will be. Oden could start at center right away with the Blazers. 7'0 foot 280lb centers that have great leadership don't come to often. Oden could come in and make a impact right away and give us the BIG man we have missed so much sense Arvydas Sabonis.
Kevin Durant is a great college basketball player. Still has alot of question if he could be as effective in the NBA. With a mix style of Dirk and KG, Durant brings alot to the table. 25ppg and 11rpg in his freshman year was a stand out. Everyone is expecting Durant to step in and be a big scorer right away. They made that same mistake with Adam Morrison, it took him half the season to get his game going. Durant will give us a small forward that may help bring us more in the future.
I see Greg Oden being a better fit in Portland. Great marketing guy and will help bring some bigger name players in.
