Top to bottom is this the most stacked draft since 03?

Not much star power outside of Blake and Harden, but there are quite a good players there. No wonder Bower did a decent job, it'd have been hard to mess up his last draft.

So winning a MVP doesn't make one a star?

Lot of solid guards in that draft. Jennings, Derozan, Collison, Holiday, Lawson, Tyreke, Rubio, Teague

Lol, saw him on the first pass through the list, missed the 2nd time. Still, the strength of the draft appears to be that it kept pumping out solid players even into the 2nd round.

Solid role players even deep into the 2nd round. Danny green, chase budinger, and patty mills all coming out of the 2nd half of the 2nd round

Minnesota picking Johnny Flynn is one of the worst picks I remember. I remember actually thinking WTF during the draft. I wasn't super high on Rubio either, but understood they got caught up in the hype.

They drafted Flynn, Rubio, and Lawson, then proceeded to trade Lawson and keep the other two...doh

They could have walked away with Curry and DeRozan, instead they got Rubio and Flynn.

It used to be I knew every player in the draft growing up. Now after the first ten picks I don't even bother.
