Portland Trail Blazers: Greg Oden remains the worst pick in Blazers history

The 2007 off-season was an exciting time for the Portland Trail Blazers, the team had the reigning rookie of the year in Brandon Roy and the first selection in the upcoming draft. It became increasingly clear that the team was considering either Greg Oden or Kevin Durant.

Safe to say the team drafted incorrectly, Oden went on to be one of the biggest busts in NBA history. Whereas Kevin Durant has gone to have a prolific career and is one of the most recognisable names in the NBA.

In addition the team passed up on the likes of of Al Horford, Mike Conley, Joakim Noah and Marc Gasol.
