The West keeps getting stronger.
Portland gets Odom and Seattle gets Durant.

I think that Portland has a solid group of young players. I love the NBA, but parity is something the NBA is lacking. I think it is something like only 7 different teams since 1983 have won the NBA title.

I was wondering about this Seattle. Seattle doesnt need Rashard now that Durant is their pick. Much easier to build your franchise around a 19 year old than Rashard. But any team out west is going to have problems until Duncan retires.

In my opinion, the perfect trade would be Randolph for Lewis. Once Portland takes Oden, that makes Randolph expendable. Same for Lewis once the Sonics take Durant. This would give both teams a solid trio of players that don't play the same position. Portland would be able to go with Oden, Lewis, and Roy and Seattle would use Randolph, Durant and Allen. I think it's a win/win for both teams.

The team that got screwed the most in the draft was Phoenix in my opinion. I really believe that they were poised to trade Marion and the #4 to Minnesota for Garnett. With Atlanta falling into the top three, that pic is protected so they keep it.
