2013 CB Historical Draft Thread

Walton had a couple of great, if injured, seasons.  However, he doesn't compare to Magic, in my mind.

Gotta agree. I figured Walton top 7-8. 3??

4th on my big board. Nice pick.

 Because you can go back in time, there's an argument to be made that Kareem should have gone first.

There's definitely an argument.  A lot is going to come down to who is available at the end of the second round.

Deciding between a few players, let me know if you're interested Ina trade.

Magic dropping at 4? And here I thought he was definitely top three.

The Walton pick is very good. Although I don't think I'll pick him over Magic, but hey, to each his own.

Sure you aren't talking about Lew Alcindor?

Very surprised by the Walton pick.  I mean I gave my list to nick just in case and Walton was not one of the 6 guys on it and for him to go ahead of Magic is just shocking.  I thought there was a very clear 3 that were way ahead of the others in Bird, Magic, and Kareem (you could argue them in any order).  I thought Moses and Dr. J were clearly the next 2 (again you could argue any order).  After that I figured there were 3 or 4 guys that were close to Moses and Dr. J, of which Walton was one of them.  Just seems like an odd pick, especially given that Walton was never healthy.  I mean the MVP year he only played in 58 games.  Hard to build a team around that.

That said, I'm glad he went because it meant Dr. J fell to me at 6th and the Dr. had some truly special seasons.

That said, I'm curious as to how the panel will treat ABA seasons, which were clearly Dr. J's most prolific seasons.  Will they be treated differently because they are the ABA and not the NBA?  Any insight would be helpful from the panel as Dr. J still had some strong NBA seasons to choose from (including a MVP season).
