excellent take

I completely agree with this read…he is like Stephen Curry with better size and less shooting ability

But incredibly superior and vastly better defense.

Did I get enough superlatives in?

think about it this way

where would Curry go in this draft?

1998 was a weak draft?

It wasn't great

Couple of Hall of Famers in Dirk and Paul Pierce (both who were after J-Will), and Jamison, Carter and Rashard Lewis later in the draft. Olowokandi was the #1 pick.

Jamison & Carter went 4th & 5th overall in that draft.

The only major player that went deep in the draft was Rashard Lewis and Brad Miller who went entirely undrafted.

Overall 1998 was a pretty good draft. Not great, but certainly nothing anywhere near awful.

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
