#DraftLogic used by NBA “experts” and executives is the nadir of analytical thinking.
I realized this last Thursday night as I watched the 2015 NBA Draft unfold in the most asinine, ass-backwards way possible.
There was the knee-jerk reaction by experts that dominant big men in the NBA are extinct because the Golden State Warriors won the NBA title playing “small ball” with no player on the court over 6-foot-6 at times. Um, would they be saying the same thing if Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love had been healthy during the NBA Finals? And somebody better tell the four 7-footers taken in the first six overall picks that they have no future in this league.
