    I listened to a Patterson interview on MSP. He clearly said Paul Allen was ready to overrule everyone and select Adam Morrison.

    Take it up with Steve Patterson.

    At best I would guess most of his info is coming from people who resent KP

    But this is a different person talking about what they have come to understand, and in no way does KP wanting Morrison conflict with PA wanting him as well. Steve Patterson was the GM.

    Right. If it wasn't for the Roy/Aldridge draft KP would be a shit GM, and we are hearing that KP didn't run that draft.

    Why would we believe anything Steve Patterson said? He could very easily just be making up all this stuff to make himself look good and get himself some free good publicity to try and find another GM job.

    Much of what he has said recently is clear bs imo. He's always been a turd.

    Ha, the little douchebag doesn't even allow comments on this "blog" until he screens them.

    Still working the late shift, Brian? ;)

    What does that have to do with how he got his first gig?

    He runs a sports consulting business that handles stadium deals and the like ... I don't know if for sure, but he sure didn't sound like a guy eager to get back into the cutthroat GM business. :dunno:

    I dunno, you just made it sound like he was on Allen's payroll and is acting as his mouthpiece here.

    If this is true, I think a lot of people owe Paul Allen an apology!

    Did you listen to the podcast? He is NOT being an apologist for Vulcan or the Blazers. He has some harsh things to say about Kolde, in particular.

    I see why this guy is on at some weird hour, because the way he talks is already annoying me.

    Ergo he is lying and has no credibility.

    I didn't say I believed him. All I said was that if KP didn't orchestrate the Roy/Aldridge draft, then he hasn't done anything to make him a top 10 GM like most people on here think.
