Today: Interesting Paul Allen Q&A
Well this adds more fuel to the fire:

I'm back and forth. Sometimes I like to play devil's advocate, just to make sure everybody is looking at the other side of the coin. Of course, there are some people, like earlier in the year, Kevin Pritchard was only talking about Durant, he didn't mention Oden at all. So, I kind of kid him about that. We would sit at Blazers games and I would ask him who he is watching, and he would say "Durant. I love Durant." So it's a real interesting decision. I think (Friday's) ) workout made it even a tougher decision than before.

Re: Today: Interesting Paul Allen Q&A
If the decision was made tougher by KD doing so well then that means that before the workouts Oden was who they wanted. And KP has said on many occasions that he does not let workouts weigh heavily in the "process", except for the player interview.

Total oposite I'd thnk based on hte premise that KP ios in love with Durant. Making it harder wold mean Oden krept up.
BTW take note that Paul is recalling stuff from early during hte season.

But those comments were regarding Durants workout, not Odens.
