Revisiting KG Draft, 1995

[guava_wrench]

Interesting looking back at the KG draft from 1995 and who is still in the league:

http://www.basketball-reference.com/draft/NBA_1995.html

Detroit had 2 players
Antonio McDyess (2)
Rasheed Wallace (4)
Theo Ratliff (18)

Cleveland had 2 players
Joe Smith (1)
Eric Snow (43)

Cool to see KG knock 3 of the 4 players picked before him out of the playoffs on his way to the Championship. (FYI, Stackhouse was #3)

Interestingly, San Antonio had 4 players from the 1995 draft this year:
Damon Stoudamire (7)
Kurt Thomas (10)
Brent Barry (15)
Michael Finley (21)

Excellent
that means after 10-13 years
drafted becomes dominant veteran contendors

and
Experience win championships

I can see that happening when Rondos Draft hits the 10 years wall

with Rondo as our Superstar ultra dominant multi all star PG

In Finals against Portland
And conference finals against Atlanta
