Royce White

The other day my friend who's a diehard rockets fan tried telling me ainge was the worst GM at drafting and was making fun of olynyk at 13 and others. I just responded "Royce white" and he shut up reallll quick haha
lol that pick by the rockets was a horrendous swing and a miss
Yeah but I'm not sure how much evidence it is of bad drafting. Obviously they did a bad job in their analyzation of Whites mental condition, but he was an undeniably talented player who could have been a steal if he was able to overcome his anxiety issues. It was a swing and a miss, but not necessarily a bad risk. I mean if you keep taking those swings you will end up with more Fab Melos and Royce Whites and James Youngs then you'd like, but every now and then you might stumble across a Giannis Antentekounpo
Not that your argument is wrong, you can't call Klynyk evidence of bad drafting while you are sitting there with rouce whote. I just think people overstate how bad it is to have a few megabusts on your resume. That's what happens when you swing for the fences.
