    Despite being picked over Jordan, Hakeem was a great first pick. He was a dominant player.

    Nobody ever bashes the Rockets for not taking Jordan. That's how you know how great Akeem* was.







    * The way everyone spelled his name at the tim of the draft.
    I remember on my Sega Genesis NBA game it was still Akeem.

    If we're going to start bashing the Trailblazers for picking Sam Bowie ahead of Jordan, I'm in!

    You think a guy like Jordan is playing his whole career in Portland anyway? lol... By the time he was championship Jordan, he prob wouldnt have been in Portand anyway.

    BRoy was an all star. They got a few good years from him. He wasn't a bad pick.

    He looked a like a franchise player and played like it until knees gave out.

    Yes, he was a good pick. As is the case now they couldn’t give him much support.

    BRoy, Aldridge, and Durant is not a bad core making a run for a few years.
