Indeed. If Oden was around NY would really be kicking themselves for giving up their pick to Chicago.

It's a terrible draft to be in the lottery, but I think it's deep in terms of bench depth. I'd rather have a pick at #16-#20 than the lottery, because a lot of lottery GMs are going to look stupid this year, while the guys picking near the end of the 1st round are going to pick up some contributors.
