Durant may be a chosen one and get a ton of fouls, but he could also be completely ignored by the zebras. His game is more jumpshooting than driving to the hole though, so I'm guessing he doesn't get the Wade treatment to start off with. |
There is a lot of money invested in this dude. I am sure that the TV networks already have their schedules set up around him and Lebron for this coming year.
I haven't seen Oden getting the media and league push that Durant is. I think a lot of that may have to do with personality, but time will tell.
But you are correct on your points so it will be interest to see what happens come November 1st.
