I agree with most of these except Sullinger. He's only going to last so long with his health concerns. We knew Sullinger would be a great player. We just didn't know how long he'd be able to sustain the production. Look at where Blair is now. I think when the dust has settled and we look back on this draft, out of that list, Rivers will probably end up being the 3rd best player on it outside of Jones/Henson. Plumlee is mostly intriguing because he fixes our problems at the 5 immediately.
Blair had no ligaments in his knee and was never the player Sullinger was in college. I do not recall Sullinger's injury being debilitating.

Sullinger was an easy top 10 player and probably even top 5 without the health concerns. One leg is longer than the other.

his injury dropped him at least 10 spots in the draft.
