If the choice was a dominant big man or a dominant small man, I think in today's NBA, you take the small man. Now, if the big man is a franchise center, then that's different. But there were none of those in this draft. The dominant big man is under 6'8" so that made it nearly automatic on who was not only the best option but especially the best option for the team that had the top choice. Let's say that NO or Utah would have ended up with the first selection this year. Then obviously Rose wouldn't have been the first pick. So it was a combination of need and talent that put him there.
No disagreement whatsoever.
Just think it is more difficult to assess PGs.
