I am referring to the 2007 draft since that is what you posted. You are the one assuming I am "making it say what I want it to say". Where did I say something different?

You rush to conclusions. My posts are not abrasive. I simply state some facts, give examples and ask some questions. I was actually curious to hear some responses but I rarely got any. I guess you take asking questions as arguing or trying to persuade you. Oh well.

The end game is that no one should be suprised to see a mobile 7'3" 19 year old be drafted in the lottery no matter how limited his offensive game is. It happens just about every year. It will continue to happen, whether we think the player is worth the pick or not, because size with mobility is a commodity that is hard to find and that these kids are so young, its easy to dream about their possibilities. In my opinion, to rush to message boards after seeing a kid play one game and bash him (or bash the sites that are projecting him) is illogical.
