Re: An overlooked John Nash blunder...

Kleiza is good but so is Jack, and neither is going to be great. You cant win them all and after the first 15 picks its a real guessing game. If you want to talk about the real mistake of that draft then its drafting Webster instead of CP, I like Webster a lot but CP has turned into one of those special players that can change a franchise or even a division.

here is my sweet pretend lineup... I think they'd be pretty good!

Chris Paul
Roy
Josh Smith
LA
Greg

I bet money we wouldn't have won the lottery if we had Paul the year before. So no Oden if we had Paul. I would rather have Oden.

I'd rather have Oden then any other player in the league besides LaBron, but so what? Others were lamenting the missed opportunity to add Paul and Kleiza, so I added another big roster wiff by Nash... didn't I clearly note that I was dealing in roster fantasy world in that post?
