Re: I curse you John Nash

Nash had two horrible drafts, but I do wonder how drafting Jefferson or Paul would have affected our current team.

I think we probably would have had to deal Jefferson to the Celtics(instead of Telfair), to get Brandon Roy.

Would drafting Chris Paul have negated Oden? If you were to change the space/time continum in order to get Paul, that would most likely mean no Oden. I think we had about a 7% chance to get Oden in 2007, and with Paul, those chances probably would have been 1% or less.

So maybe if John Nash had not been our GM our lineup would have been.

PG- Chris Paul
SG- Brandon Roy
C- Joel Pryzbilla
SF- Travis Outlaw
PF- Al Jefferson

instead of:

PG- Brandon Roy
SG- Rudy Fernandez
C- Greg Oden
PF- LaMarcus Aldridge
SF- Martell Webster

Both lineups look pretty good!
