This kis is awesome... there starting to be talks that he could now be the new #1 pick. I guess you can't lose if you have one of the top 2 picks this season.

More and more philly people have been debating if we got the first pick to take him over Oden. As the time passes I am sure it will get more and more interesting. Honestly I'd take either, lol.

Could Oden have now falled to the 3rd best big man? I think its becoming obvious that Durant is the best overall player. But has Fazekas now passed Oden as the 2nd best?

Couldn't tell ya, though everytime I hear anything, they still have Oden going #1, based on him as a whole, franchise changing player.

What does he take that makes him look 35 years old?

Oh as far as draft goes, i have no idea. If you need a center, than you have to take Oden i'm guessing. But as far as best big man goes, Durant is incredible. And Fazekas doesn't get much of the hype because he plays smaller teams, but he's damn good as well. Wish Nevada was on a little bit more.

Oh, I thought you were talking about the draft, I can't really speculate on best overal in the NCAA without seeing enough of all of them.

um fazekas has no shot at going ahead of oden...fazekas went back to school after declaring cause he couldn't get a guarantee of being drafted in the top 20....

Yes, again, not talking about the draft. I'm just saying that he may be a better player at this point. But Odens potential/upside is MUCH bigger.
