Yep. I really don't think there's any question that Portland will take Oden. In a way it's a riskier pick, but unless something turns up in interviews or workouts they've got to take the chance. He actually seems like a really good kid that fits the character of the guys they're trying to get now, so I don't think any red flags will come up. And actually Durant fits Seattle's roster better than Oden anyway, so it's win-win in that regard. I'm excited for Rid (Duck in Seattle) to get a chance to play with such a dynamic young player in Durant. Of course, I'm also excited for Fredie (Duck in Portland) to get a chance to play with such a dynamic young player in Oden.

This is weird for me. This is the first time I've been really stoked about the NBA in literally over a freaking decade.

It's coming back.
