2011 NBA Draft revisited...

[franklin]

Nobody wanted to trade up in that draft because there wasn't any top-tier talent besides Kyrie. So, how exactly could we have traded back?

I don't agree with Hack b/c taking a shot on a body the size of Kanter was the right risk to take. That said, I wanted either Klay and then Kawhi at the spot we took Burks. KOC could have easily traded back to grab both.

Kanter and burks are the only two players from that draft that were "corbined"
Have to take that into consideration

The new Sloanfeld, everybody.

Nope. Jonas is a safer bet right now for sure.

I'd put Thomas, Thompson, Vucevic (in no particular order) and possibly Parsons and Kemba ahead of Val.

Finally someone who values Thomas rightly.

But why you guys value Thomas so much? He seems like huge liability on defense to me.
