Which combo would you rather run with? KP had tough decisions to make and now he might pay the price.

In what way are those combos comparable?

We could've picked Durant instead of Oden. And we could've picked Ibaka instead of Bayless.

Ibaka was the 24th pick. A whole lot of GM's missed that barge.
 
Bayless was considered one of the best PG's that draft theirs a reason he went in the top 15. Ibaka wasn't that high of a prospect, comparing them is like comparing Boozer to a lottery pick. Oden/Durant debate has been done to death. We got Oden he hasnt' panned out so far, he still might, he still might not. Durant would be NOWHERE near the level he is at the moment if we picked him. He wouldn't have had three seasons to be the #1 option on a team that would allow him to shoot as much as he wants and not say anything. he would have come in as the third option and have to work to become the #1 option which I still doubt he would have become because of the comfort level McMillian had with Brandon by the end of the season. He wouldn't be getting to the foul like 15 times a night with us.

Pay what price? You don't still believe all that bullshit about his job being in jeopardy, do you?
