With Odens Qualifying Offer set to pay him right around the same money as Bargnani, I think thats maybe an interesting debate to be had: Who would you rather pay $9-$10M per season?
Though Oden may not ever be a 20ppg guy, he has serious potential to be a 12rpg guy, and even a 2-2.5bpg.
But the thing with Oden is that you're relying VERY heavily on potential; to blossom into a Stud player, but also potential to stay healthy.
I'm not sure he's worth the stress.
Though Bargs will likely be pawned to the highest bidder, I'm not sure Oden is what we trade him for. Especially not with Jonas coming in as a very promising young Center, without the kind of History for Injuries that Oden has.
