So, how do you grade transactions?It is ironic because I think if that same draft were made today, Jordan goes no lower than 2. Also, I am almost positive KD would have been selected over Oden.
Until very recently, it was widely believed that you needed dominate big men to win in the NBA and that perimeter play was a luxury. Today it is almost exactly the opposite. That is why I do think it was a big mistake taking Ayton and Bagley over Doncic.
While hindsight has proven MJ and KD to be far superior players, it is very easy to understand why the teams who passed did what they did.
how they ACTUALLY turn out?
or
the logic at the time the deal/draft pick/trade was made?
to me its obvious. Only one even makes PARTIAL sense. If not #1, then RW, by definition, was a bad draft pick.
