    Yup. Heard that stuff today ... I have no idea if Berger has an axe to grind with KP, but it didn't come across that way. I was sort of surprised to see him so emphatic about backing up Patterson's version of events

    There's a bullet point one in one of the fanshots on Blazersedge, if you wanted to look there.

    "If it was up to Kevin Pritchard he would have drafted Adam Morrison, and Brandon Roy would be in Minnesota" - 28 minute mark

    According to Steve Patterson Paul Allen would have overruled everyone and selected Adam Morrison if he was there at 4.

    It sounds like KP was a puppet for this organization.

    Here comes the spin. Berger got his first gig when Paul Allen bought 95.5 the Game.

    yeah, that's not quite like Pritchard wanted Morrison, though.

    Steve Patterson is a fucking douche.

    I'm pretty sure that Patterson said ALLEN wanted Morrison, not KP.

    Did you listen? Steve Patterson is saying KP wanted Adam Morrison, and not Paul Allen.

    Brian Berger doesn't have a fucking job except for the podcast he "owns" and "founded" and a one-hour show on Sundays on The Fan. Well, he may have another outside job to pay the bills, but those are his "connections" to Portland sports at this point.

    What a fucking joke.
