Like any other organization, talent drives the business. If Presti didn't think that our national scouting department did a good job this year, he put his eggs in a more trusted basket of his international scouts.
Interesting thought.
No confidence in local scouts or American players in this years draft?
Not sure - maybe both?
Just trying to put myself in Presti's shoes. I don't think scouting or drafting is a science, it's in-exact.
I'm coming at it from the perspective of preferring to have more young guys now. So I'm wondering if there was a missed opportunity with 25 / 28 or if Pokusevski is really
that talent.
