Re: If you had the rockets pick in 1984....
This question may have been unnecessary had Houston taken Clyde Drexler with the No. 3 overall pick instead of Rodney McCray. I felt Houston should have taken Drexler then (a raw athlete with strong upside) over McCray, who was projected as more of a decent complementary player.
Hakeem Olajuwon is one of my all-time favorite players, and people may have forgotten the reason he was chosen because he was projected to be a power forward (partly because he measured to be 6-foot-10 without shoes). When he got to Houston and showed his skills were more suited for center, then Ralph Sampson had to make the move to the power forward slot.
