    you know, you could cut a chunk of your misses by following MM's treatises on drafting. ;)

    I thought Brandon Roy would be average at best.

    They will learn on their own at some point.

    I have more, but I already get too much shit for the two I have given.

    It's certainly not 100% accurate, but if I were a betting man with my picks, I would most certainly be playing with house money at this point.

    Oden

    I will always feel a certain contempt for myself for jumping off the KD bandwagon and onto the Oden sinking ship.

    Oden was a uber dominant center when he was healthy. That's not really a miss, IMO

    I admit when healthy, Oden was a fucking beast; but the health concern, definitely is a measurement of "BUST". Let's say Oden averaged 20/20/5 a game, but only played 12 games in 3 years. What if there was another player that gave us 5/5/1.5 for 82 games a year? Which one is more valuable?

    The answer on that depends on which 12 games Oden plays. If they were playoff games...

    Also, the second Center is below replacement level so not having them and instead having someone else similar while swinging for the fenses isn't a problem.. http://www.sonicscentral.com/warp.html

    I though Joe Alexander at the very least would be a good spark and hustle guy off the bench.

    I thought Joachim Noah would suck ass and I thought Michael Beasley was going to be really, really good.

    To be honest, I thought the only player worth having in the Chris Paul draft was Bogut. When we missed out on him I didn't really care that we traded down for Martell.
