Portland Tribune 的文章 by Kerry Eggers

重點是最後一段 有提到一點點 Pritchard 的內心想法：

While meeting with reporters last week, Pritchard unveiled a bit of his
thought process when he said: “What you’re after is low risk, high return.
One of the guys is a higher risk, higher return, where the other is a little
lower risk and maybe not as much return. Our job is to always try to get the
highest-return player at the lowest risk we can.”

Pritchard wouldn't confirm it, but I’m assuming he considers Durant the
high-risk/high-return player, Oden the lower-risk player with perhaps not
quite as much upside. Then Pritchard was asked if he’s inclined to take
risks or surer things.

“Normally, I like the higher risk,” the Portland GM answered. “I’m a
high-risk person. Sometimes to get to the championship level, you have to
take big risks.”

Pritchard says he wouldn’t read anything into that comment, but it makes you
wonder.


Pritchard 說這兩個一個風險比較高 報酬也比較高 一個風險比較低 報酬也比較低
記者的解讀是：風險高的是Durant 風險低的是Oden 然後他問 Pritchard 會怎麼選

Pritchard 說 通常他會選高風險的 要打造一支總冠軍球隊
你必須要願意承擔比較高的風險


我覺得 Kerry Egger 的解讀錯的離譜
Durant 是個以新鮮人之姿在 NCAA 拿下 25ppg 以及全美最佳球員的人
怎麼看都會是風險較低的那人

不管 Egger 怎麼亂講 Pritchard 這段話的確是指向了 Greg Oden
(希望真的是這樣！)
