    This thread didn't prove it, it just added a LOT of data to the study.

    I wasn't around in 12 when this thread was going on, but that was hilarious going back and reading all the back and forth and all the ones who thought it was a mistake to take Dame.

    The people who thought Dame was the right pick were a definite minority. I haven't read back through the thread, and it doesn't look like I posted in this one at the time, but my clear top-3 for the draft was, in order: Davis, Lillard, Drummond.

    Well, this thread just convinced me that maybe participants in this thread should never bad mouth a GM again. It ended up being a pretty funny thread though with crow being the main course. :biglaugh:

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    We could have had Harrison Barnes, but Lillard was a good consolation prize.

    Thomas Robinson, sadly, was already gone so we never had a shot to build around him.
