Durant WILL declare for draft

[sportsguyryan]

I have some inside info on another NBA forum I go on, and I have learned that Kevin Durant will declare for the NBA draft.

Shocking, no? Not really, but now the question is Oden.

I am pretty sure both will declare for the 2007 Draft.

Other than possible injury, Oden would be better off staying for another year. Though he has the talent, he doesn't have the physical skills to bang with the big centers in the NBA and another year would give him a chance to get some more size and still be a top 3 pick...

It is officially on ESPN.

I still think Durant should have stayed for another year. He has tremendous talent but isn't NBA ready. He needs to bulk up more and increase his stamina. Hopefully he will condition himself in the offseason.

Assuming Oden stays for another year, Durant will likely be the top pick and Memphis will have the most ping pong balls and best chance at the #1 pick. If Boston gets the top pick I think they will trade either the pick or Paul Pierce. I don't see Pierce and Durant together.

Oden. Conley, and Cook's family are meeting this weekend to discuss the draft.
It appears all 3 will opt to enter the draft. Whether or not they hire an agent remains to be seen.

I don't see Durant and Oden staying another year in college. They have tremendous talent, and both can make an impact in their first year in the NBA. Durant and Oden will be in the draft this June.

This statement has nothing to do with this thread and seems to be a very immature remark.
