[@kylehoang7400]

6 years later the first pick is traded for the last pick

[@oliverempleo5065]

Kyle Hoang much better traded to the last pick than be traded for a toothpick!

[@novemberkwatro3773]

Your right men hahaha

[@bertongpader6255]

oliver empleo and the 60th pick brought a team at the top of EC standings and ECF while the #1 pick consistently sits at the bottom of standings and never experienced playoff until LBJ came back

[@oliverempleo5065]

Bertong Pader and now after lbj came back and carried the team and kyrie erving into the playoffs and won a championship,kyrie boasts to himself and the world that he can now carry the boston celtics to the promised land once again after he joined them.lets see!

[@bertongpader6255]

oliver empleo i will bet my 1 month salary, Boston will never pass 2nd round comes playoff time

[@flibbidyx2]

Analysts at the time thought this draft was fairly weak. Kyrie was the one guy who was seen as a potential star, with the rest of the draft being filled with a lot of solid role players, and that's it. Boy were they wrong. A lot of really good players came out of this draft.

[@musictv7078]

The Klaw is the best in this draft he can play multiple position inside and outside 💪💪💪

[@wannabejaylenbrown9849]

No one talks about it but this man Derrick Williams was a bust 😭😭 one of the worst picks in the last 20 years

[@markianbetancor9098]

if someone told me back then that the 1st and 60th pick would be the centerpieces of a blockbuster trade one day I probably won't believe him

[@sihlemaseko1985]

[@mehmeh0256]

Totally this is the best year of draft season because most of the players pick rised on their own time..

[@jimmychen253]

The Cavs are very unlucky, they could have had Kyrie and another all star from this draft class instead of Thompson and the Cavs should have kept Wiggins and this team would be Kryie, Wiggins, Kawhi, and Lebron.

[@yourlocalt.i5433]

This is one of the deepest draft tbh

[@matheusabreu2534]

Yes, Klay has some special abillity to shoot the ball

[@ivancapid1554]

The biggest mistake is the pacers trade kawhi to spurs and what if he doesn't trade with the spurs, maybe the outcome of his tandem with paul george will be good, they can become champions if he isn't traded, it looks like they can beat together the big 3 of the miami heat. and at the same time paul George reached their prime

[@eloriginal8241]

Nope, you got it wrong, the pacers traded that pick for George Hill, San Antonio Spurs told the Pacers to pick Kawhi Leonard for them. If Pacers hadn't traded there pick they were picking someone else. I'm a Pacer fan and I asked this question myself, until I found out why they didn't keep Kawhi Leonard.

[@mkeown1118]

Can you imagine if the Cavs would've drafted klay with the 4th pick??

[@danigomezz276]

Kyrie and klay on the backcourt damn

[@SBzKillFrenzy]

He would've still left for the West. Snowy cities SUCK!!!!

Absolutely for trading Kawhi.

[@lostinYourReality]

Vivek Kandasamy they were forced to trade. Spurs technically had the pick and told Indiana to pick kawhi in order to get the deal done

[@merrrtz]

I don't think so Pop made him the player he is today.

[@vivekkandasamy5317]

UncleClutch Kawhi was already relentless, hard worker. He was a double double machine at San Diego State and High School. He would be great without San Antonio.

[@merrrtz]

+Vivek Kandasamy of course he has a very good ethic I didn't say the opposite all I tried to say is that Greg Popovich really help him in is development.

[@Pedroapares]

trading Kawhi is the worst mistake in pacers recent history for sure

[@lance7492]

Indeed. Trading Paul George for a box of condoms and two lays chips (not two bags, just two singular chips) is a pretty close second though.

and now oladipo+sabonis super good deal, even better than george... so fuck off you fucking hater!

Underrated to be precise. It was lowkey superstars filled fly under the radar back then. None of them were expected to be what they are today, not even Kyrie (given he was from Duke, and the majority of Duke alumni, aside of Grant Hill, rarely made it big in NBA).
