TLM Podcast Ep. 59 – Redrafting the 2014 NBA Draft

on Saturday, September 5, 2015

NEW YORK, NY - JUNE 26: A video screen shows the selection of Joel Embiid of Kansas as the #3 overall pick in the first round by the Philadelphia 76ers during the 2014 NBA Draft at Barclays Center on June 26, 2014 in the Brooklyn borough of New York City.

Don’t worry, Wiggins still went No. 1.

The 2014 NBA Draft was widely regarded in the months leading up to it. Today, that standard largely still exists, but numerous injuries to lottery players (and a few picks that clearly weren’t correct) had James and I re-considering how the draft would go, knowing what we know now. Would Joel Embiid still go No. 3, knowing that he would miss his first two seasons? Would Jordan Clarkson find himself in the lottery instead of the second round?

Hindsight doesn’t change anything, but it can be a bit of fun. In this episode, we re-drafted picks 1-14. Don’t worry, Wiggins was still our consensus No. 1, but a few high picks found themselves dropping down the board, or out of the lottery all together.
