    Props to you Zags! It finally panned out. Been bashing on you since the Draft The Stache days. Congrats!

    2 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists on 1-6 shooting in 16 minutes.

    Still think CJ was a smart choice.

    As do I, but I find it interesting that if you sort that draft class by win shares, C.J. come in 8th (chosen 10th) at 15.7 and Olynyk comes in 9th (chosen 13th) at 14.6.

    The difference is their trajectories. C.J. started slow, first due to injury and then being buried behind Wes Matthews. But then he's really taken off the last two seasons:

    C.J. McCollum:
    2013-14 WS = 0.2
    2014-15 WS = 1.8
    2015-16 WS = 6.0
    2016-17 WS = 7.6
    Total WS = 15.7

    Olynyk started out much higher, rose a little and appears to have plateaued:

    Kelly Olynyk:
    2013-14 WS = 2.9
    2014-15 WS = 3.6
    2015-16 WS = 4.1
    2016-17 WS = 4.1
    Total WS = 14.6

    C.J. is definitely the better player today, and should continue to separate himself from Olynyk going toward.

    So can we now say CJ was the correct choice and Olynyk slightly outperformed his draft position?
