love how big al was averaging a double double, the Wolves were improving AND have cap space and people still hate. Seriously, get over it. They got the best they could for KG. Shoulda traded him 2 years earlier…

MJ has made very shrewd GM moves this year. He made an excellent draft choice, he got a great coach, and got he got the better of the trade w/ Phoenix and LA.

Whether or not Jordan selected Kwame is beside the point, all GM’s make some lousy moves. (E.g., Dumar’s selecting Darko) Furthermore, the year Kwame was drafted, almost all of the first draft choices were mediocre.

Falk is full of garbage. Jordan is judged as an exec based on his ability to get the players that he wants, not the ones that BET Bob(cat) think would make the team more money.

And what of Adam Morrison? Did MJ not want him either?

It seems like in the late ’90s and beginning of this decade, all the big men drafted out of high school were busts, but the last few years before they stopped allowing high school players to enter the draft, they’ve worked out (Amar’e, Howard, Bynum).

I wonder if teams started doing a better job providing coaching to young bigs, teaching them the things that they would have learned in a college program.

is it official that Kwame could never have succeeded in the League even with different circumstances.

I honestly belive Darko can still do it btw, whats holding him back?

Kwame Brown was a good #1 pick compared to Olowokandi. I guess that’s like saying cancer is better than AIDS.

Danny Ainge wanted Keving Garnett; Kevin McHale gave him a gift.
