TNT All-American

always draft best player available. You can always move pieces. However miss on a Hall of Famer for a situation like that is just stupid.

kawhi couldn't shoot. that had to be the line of thinking.

To be fair, the majority of teams missed on Tony Parker. Still woulda been nice.

The back-up PGs the year after drafting Lopez were John Crotty and Rusty Larue

I think it is pretty common for a team to outsmart themselves in the draft.
