It's not like they drafted a bum instead. They still took a HOF PF

They just traded him after his rookie year

Does it even matter though? We probably would have traded him for Rod Strickland (or worse) just the same...

Sheed ain't no hall of famer

was he even as good as Jack Sikma?

Just based off of pure potential that should've been the greatest power forward class of all time - Joe Smith, McDyess, Sheed, KG, Kurt Thomas and Ed O'Bannon even.

Did they pass on Kevin Garnett or did they pass on #KevinGarnett? That's a man, not a damned trending topic.

one is known for leading the league in FT%, the other for being shook off E-40
