IMO, getting numerous Top 5 picks doesn't make you a good drafter. It's not like they took gambles on players at them spots (like taking a Darko, or a Dirk, to use the extreme each way).
They obviously managed their team the right way, and put them in the right lane (even though it meant losing a whole lot), but when you're picking 2nd, 3rd, 4th, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to hit on them picks (unless you work for the Clippers).
