Oden, Durant Are Fine Judges Of Talent

Here's a photo from the 2007 ESPYs which I haven't seen before, so I suppose it should be officially submitted to our files. Greg Oden and Kevin Durant certainly appreciate fine things, and by that I mean the award, of course. Look on Oden's face = "Not bad." More »

Kevin Durant Is Superbad

He may have no concept on when to pass up a shot, but Kevin Durant knows how to party. Come help him celebrate his return to his hometown D.C. on Friday at H20 on Water Street, and remember; Ladies admitted free all night. Open bar, except, as Deuce of Davenport points out, Durant is only 19. So no alcohol shall touch his lips, nope. More »

Draft Kevin Durant Meets Its Namesake

You may remember the great Draft Kevin Durant site, which implored the Blazers to draft Durant over Greg Oden. One might say the pick worked out well for both the Sonics and the Blazers; the Sonics have their franchise player ~~to take with them to Oklahoma City~~ and the Blazers are the NBA's hottest team, and they still have Oden to look forward to. But Draft Kevin Durant has remained doggedly insistent, and yesterday their persistence paid off. More »

Kevin Durant, Trail Blazer

We're longtime fans of the Draft Kevin Durant blog, if just because of the obsessive single-mindedness of it. (Even if it hasn't been updated in a while.) When Greg Oden went down with an injury, it was all the site could do not to cackle. More »

Greg Oden Can Only Improve On His Foul Trouble From Here

I knew there was an underlying reason notable tall dude Greg Oden went to the NBA after one year in college. It couldn't have been just the money, or the chance to be picked No. 1 overall. No, It had to be for the NBA rule that you foul out after six, not five like in college. Or maybe it was the all-too-enticing summer league, where you foul out after ten. More »

Arenas And Durant, Like Burns And Allen

The new NBA Live '08 commercials, featuring Kevin Durant and Gilbert Arenas, are out, and though they don't come close to capturing Arenas' odd genius — a recent blog entry featured Arenas mocking people who wear bike helmets — but we love that he actually reads the closing credits. More »

Kevin Durant Is Low On The Upper Body Strength

Among those who care more about silly workout statistics and the notion of watching young men in their underwear run, jump and lift things than simply watching how preternaturally blessed athletes dominate their sports, there was considerable concern this week about Kevin Durant's relatively weak showing in the bench press. Poor scrawny Kevin couldn't bench 185 pounds. Oh no! More »

Yet Another Great Reason To Live In Portland

Before we talk about the disappointment of all the teams who didn't win the first or second pick in last night's NBA Draft Lottery, let's look at the team that did win, the Portland Trail Blazers. (The official favorite team of Henry Abbott at True Hoop, who was at the lottery last night and, amusingly, is only a month-plus into his ESPN tenure and is already praising the free buffets.) CNBC's Darren Rovell crunches the numbers and finds the Trail Blazers' good fortune is going to net them about $6.3 million next year alone. More »
