Did Portland make a dumb pick with Oden over Durant, or did it look correct at the time?

NO. before the Blazers even drafted Oden i said i would stick with him that he was the right pick no matter what. if the Blazers every have a shot to win the championship they like every other team need a dominate center and Greg was the right choice. who wouldve predicted that Durant would've turned out like that. i still don't think Durant would've been the answer because i wouldn't see Durant and Roy working out and without a dominate center in the mix i don't see a championship on the way i just see trouble between two stars.
