20 yr old Burke vs. 20 yr old Paul is extremely similar in almost every measure from size to stats, to how they tested in these drills, and leadership qualities as well.


Exactly

Bogut, Marvin and Deron Williams were selected before Paul. The Williams' didn't even really put up numbers in college. No one knew CP3 would become the best PG of all time

Well in all fairness, if I remember the 2005 draft correctly, Bogut was the clear cut #1 guy and Atlanta didn't need a PG. we knew we were going to get Williams or Paul and we thought both would be good. We just didn't know how good. It's not like a ton of teams passed on him. But then again, a ton of teams aren't going to pass on Burke either.
