And what I'm saying is that if you put a player like AD on any of those teams they don't get to draft those guys. There draft pick would inevitably be worse because they had a guy like AD already on the roster.



We had the chance, we shipped off that pick and the 2014 pick for Jrue. Look at every pick from 6-15.
10 players: 2 SF, 2 SG, 2 PG, 1 Combo guards, and 3 centers.

Could have gotten:
Noel
McLemore
KCP
Burke
McCollum
MCW
Adams
Olynyk
Shabazz
Giannis

At this point in time, about 3 haven't panned out. the other 7 have been improving year by year.

I still like Jrue over Noel. Noel has become a solid player, but Jrue has been great this year and it's not like Noel has played much more than Jrue since the trade. Noel missed his entire rookie season. I guess you could say that taking Noel and holding him out the whole first year keeps us shitty and gives us a chance at picking Marcus Smart. Not a bad outcome.

I'd take Giannis, McCollum (let's assume his development goes a lot faster because he's not the 3rd or 4th guard in the rotation like he was his first two years in Portland).

None of those other players really excite me more than the Jrue we've been seeing this year.
