I'd like to see them both stay at least another year. I don't think either one is ready for the NBA. Other guys at the center position like Duncan, Garnett, Shaq, Stoudemire, etc would eat them alive on both ends of the floor.
I think Oden is probably ready physically, but i think if he were in the NBA, it would become apparent that he is still very green.
Durant more than has the skills, but those guys mentioned above would push around his skinny frame like he was an old lady.
If I had to pick between one of them though, I'd take Durant hands down. Nothing against Oden, but I see a hell of alot more out of Durant (like the drive to WIN) to go along with the physical skills than I've seen from Oden....granted I've seen more Texas games than Ohio St games this year, but from what I've seen, I gotta agree....Oden looks like he's sleepwalking thru parts of games sometimes.
