Who is this year's next Jan Vesely?

Wes shows his age once again. Noel's haircut is 90% of his appeal. The other 10% is his Kate Moss legs.

Stealing from and ripping off the late 1980s and early 1990s is now considered appealing?

Spare me.

As much as you seem to dwell in the past I would think Noel's haircut would appeal to you.

My haircut's totally 70s/80s.

This draft doesn't have any obvious stars, but the 1986 draft had a lot of people destined for stardom. Death, drugs, and injury undermined many of those careers, and most of the best came out of the 2nd round (Rodman, Hornacek, Mark Price). I'm not saying there's a Rodman this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if this class overall proved as good as or better than that one.

If Vesely means everyone but the one that picks him knows it's the wrong pick, I don't see any obvious Vesely at this point.

You want to see talent?
Watch the above videos.
Those 2 kids are talented.

Nerlens Noel sucks.
No talent whatsoever.

Wow that was a draft class with horrible luck/decisions.

I think this draft may look more like 1988 decent players, but not a ton of top level talent:
