But time and again history has told us....DRAFT BPA!!!! NOT for position of need!
I would say if we end up with a pick where a PG is the BPA and Dragic is still on the roster, we should trade the pick. No need for 3 point guards.
Tell that to McD. He had Dragic and Marshall, drafted Goodwin and traded for Bledsoe. I know most people look at Goodwin as a 2, but McD said he envisioned him as a PG, as I think the truth is he's a genuine combo guard...similar to Dragic and Bledsoe. The Goodwin pick has made the Suns better already because it means we aren't investing in Marshall anymore and are instead funneling that time and those resources to a high ceiling player rather than one who will only get marginally better.
