i would only note that as far as we know, the only difference between Crosby and Oden is that Crosby has been luckier. That's it. - TFox Mar 14, 07:21 8
- sure, but would anyone not draft Crosby given what he has done? I say no, he still goes #1 with a bullet, Oden doesn't get drafted -- nm - Beaker Mar 14, 07:32 7
  - with perfect knowledge and a time machine, a lot of things change. - Reagen Mar 14, 07:40 6
    - IIRC, Oden's knees were a huge concern before he stepped foot onto an NBA court. - groiny Mar 14, 07:45 5
      - this was discussed yesterday when it initially came up. He hadn't had any knee problems coming into the draft. -- nm - Reagen Mar 14, 07:49 4
        
        and yet 3 months after the draft he had his first surgery, but I;m sure no one knew before hand... -- nm - Beaker Mar 14, 07:53 3
        
        bad shit happens sometimes. You need to accept this. -- nm - Reagen Mar 14, 07:53 2
        
        sure, doesn't change the fact that he was a draft bust though; exactly because bad shit happens. - Beaker Mar 14, 07:56 1
        
        so we're back to Len Bias. -- nm - Reagen Mar 14, 07:58
