Yeah they got it in a trade. In fact, if the pick was 1, it would've gone to the other team as part of the trade, so they had no chance at LeBron and got the best possible result with the 2nd pick, as they were chanced at like around 10 or 11th overall, altho some would argue they'd be better off with 3-5 and having wade/bosh/melo. darko's been playin sweet lately tho.

inspite of what countless human beings think of, they shouldn't get a quarterback this draft. none of those available will slot in properly with Mike Martz's device in any respect, incredibly Quinn and Russell. Quinn isn't precise sufficient, and Russell has no longer shown that he's a huge quarterback in his very own suitable (the guy had a suited team surrounding him). besides, Kitna is finally getting a experience for the device, and the biggest reason for many of his struggles become (gasp!) unfavorable direction working and timing with the help of his extensive recievers. they might p.c.. a brilliant reciever.... yet there is in basic terms too lots historic previous to bypass by using that door lower back, whether CJ is available. Which leaves me thinking that they could the two commerce the p.c.. for a shown quarterback who could run the device (Jeff Garcia could be solid) or a protective participant, or draft a protective participant. i might draft protection, and that i might bypass with the two the dazzling linebacker or protection available. I won't call any names suitable now, no longer until eventually after this weeks combine. yet this is the place they could concentration, and according to threat they are in a position to do the dazzling element and get some good characters in this air headed squad. playstation : If Ginn or Jarret are available on the commencing up of the 2nd around, thats the place they could bypass.

Detroit received Memphis' first-round pick in 2003, however if Memphis had won the lottery though they would have had LeBron because the top pick was protected. The Pistons traded Otis Thorpe for that pick... what a mistake! They could have had Carmelo or Wade!

They sure wasted it, just like how Portland took Sam Bowie with the 2nd pick in the 1984 NBA draft when Michael Jordan, John Stockton, and Charles Barkley were available.
