 the basis for my best and worst hot takes growing up. This is where I would formulate, really, my opinions and predictions. It was through NBA drafts, and so I felt really proud because in 2007 was the year that Greg Oden went one, and the entire time that that happened, I said, this is awful. Kevin Durant is going to be a star. Why would they pass up on Durant to go Oden one? KD's going to be the much better player. Really? That's a take that I'm very proud of.
