    Chris Paul would be standing in that picture if KP ran that draft

    CP came out in 05. That draft is from 04. I think KP was still with the Spurs that year.

    Yep. We traded the #3 for the #5 and something else (I can't remember). Instead of Chris Paul we drafted Martel Webster. However, if we didn't draft Telfair we probably stay at #3 and take either Chris Paul or Deron Williams.

    #3 for #6+#27, of which we moved up to 22 to get JJack (traded to DEN for Linas Kleiza).

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    We addressed point guard (Jack) and got a sweet-shooting wing to pair with him (Webster), instead of just a point guard.

    According to the John Nash school of drafting.

    Whoa. Just realized that our two new PGs will hate each other being from NC and Duke. Those practices will be intense, I bet. I think Smith especially will take it to Ray Ray. Dude has always killed UNC.
