His draft genius gets very inflated.
Channing Frye-Anyone who knew anything about the Pac 10 knew this kid was soft and didn't have the game to play in new york, had isiah moved him right away he would have been a nice selection, but he held onto him and everyone figured out his game
Right Pick: Bynum
Why: Eddy Curry Trade followed, Jerome James signing, should have let Kurt man the center position and let him expire would have provided a more stable force in the middle on defense and would not be stuck with Q and his terrible contract
Nate Robinson: Frankly this one makes all the sense in the world, Isiah just takes the best athlete or talent, why bring in someone so similiar to the combo guards we already had
Right Pick: Jarret Jack-steady floor presensce with leadership qualities
Possible Project: Johan Petro
Who knew: Monte Ellis
David Lee: Great Selection *
Balkman: I am a tremendous fan of what this kid brings, but he was not getting drafted in the first round
Biggest Mistake: Kyle Lowry - which is exactly what this team needed someone that doesn't take **** from anyone, plays great defense is fierce and doesn't turn it over, this was a big mistake, considering our pgs are disgraceful, rondo, marcus williams
Collins, Chandler look good, but Frye and Balkman it's a tie
Should have Bynum, Lee, Lowry in the fold
Actually it could have been Bynum, Ellis, Lee
and then there's Jason Maxiell, Ronny Turiaf, Linas Kleiza, Francisco Garcia, Ryan Gomes, Luther Head, Louis Williams, Kelenna Azubuike(undrafted I believe this draft yr, I could be wrong)
I'd probably take every single last one of those players over Nate Robinson, keeping in mind Q accompanied Nate YIKES!
