Here is the first round in 2011:
Kyrie Irving
Derrick Williams
Enes Kanter
Tristan Thompson
Jonas Valanciunas
Jan Vesely
Bismack Biyombo
Brandon Knight
Kemba Walker
Jimmer Fredette
Klay Thompson
Alec Burks
Markieff Morris
Marcus Morris
Kawhi Leonard
Nikola Vucevic
Iman Shumpert
Chris Singelton
Tobias Harris
Donatas Montiejunas
Nolan Smith
Kenneth Faried
Nikola Mirotic
Reggie Jackson
Marshon Brooks
Jordan Hamilton
JaJuan Johnson
Norris Cole
Corey Joseph
Jimmy Butler

Plus some decent second rounders who are still in the league:
Bojan Bogdanovic
Kyle Singler
Shelvin Mack
Chandler Parsons
Jon Leuer
E'Twaun Moore
Isaiah Thomas (last pick)
Justin Holiday (undrafted)
Greg Smith (undrafted)

What an incredibly deep draft...and yet Jimmer was a top 10 pick.

Derrick Williams and Jan Vesely were both busts as well, but man. That is laughable to me how much talent was in this draft.

But perhaps the worst thing was the Hornets trading their first for Jerryd Bayless who lasted a whopping month before being traded.

Very deep draft. Look at Leonard and Butler.

Why does Norris Cole feel like a 10 year vet to me?

Because he played in so many finals with Lebron.

Also on a team with Lebron, Wade, and Bosh, Cole was never scared to play his game. Even as a rookie in the biggest of games, Cole never looked fazed. I like that about the guy.

In college. Everyone knew that wouldn't translate to the NBA

This dude and Bogdan Bogdanovic that was a 1st round pick for Phoenix are confusing.

Nobody can draft like the Bulls. Landed two legit starters in this first round at 23 and 30
