To be fair to Portland, unlike the Sam Bowie debacle, Oden was projected to be like a Patrick Ewing while Durrant was seen as a dime a dozen Guard that comes up every year. So Portland could have passed on him and next year drafted a PG if needed.
The Sam Bowie draft was a big WTF since Rockets had taken Hakeem Olajuwon as the #1 pick and he was seen as the best center possible worth in the Top 10 draft so there was no need for Portland to go for a center with him gone.
