Its hard to say who's ready for the big leagues. So much more is involved than just talent alone. Does he have the skills? Absolutely. does anyone know if "Big Country" is still playing?:rolleyes: I'm not sure financial suicide is the right term but I agree, he'd be harming himself more than helping.
And yes, 7 feet isn't what it used to be but I believe its his physical maturity and strength at his age that has raised eyebrows. Durant and Oden may be close in height but honestly Durant could go hangliding with a piece of poster board and a stiff breeze. And hasnt Oden been shooting his FTs lefty.
60% w/his left hand while Shaq couldnt hit 60% with John Lucas' hands.
Imo, they'll both do well.

good to see ya recovering!
