That was also David Stern's very last year that he opened the envelopes for the NBA Draft Lottery.

Dave Twardzik drafted Joe Smith, Todd fuller, and Adonal Foyle. This led to him being fired and set the Warriors back an entire decade.

I love how Stern keeps turning the cards around to show the audience...but the same logo is printed on both sides.

This draft has some of my favorite players. Like Jerry Stackhouse, Bryant Reeves and K.G.

@ 3:16 david stern "feeling better" LOL

awesome video!

R.I.P. David Stern (Former NBA Commissioner)

i had McDyess' jersey, seriously. badass dunker and blocker. and holy shit on that stackhouse dunk, dammmnn!

They jumped from 5 to 1. Which allowed them to draft career journeyman Joe Smith at 1 while high school phenom and future Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett went 5. A case of good luck actually being bad luck lol.

A lot of future former pistons

You're right. He did have a pretty soild NBA career but I believe they were expecting more from him.

how AWKWARD! No one claps and congratulates GS Warriors for the #1 pick...how sad

I don't know why anybody thought Joe Smith was #1. No hops

Warriors baby

Lol Ed O'Bannon and Shawn Respert...Oh Boy :)

Bob Costas is cute with glasses.

Minnesoter? man wtf well i dont care we picked the best player that year

lmao joe smith!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They didn't even expect Garnett would be a draft pick LOL

Geoff Petrie looks like J.D. from Scrubs lol.

Joe Smith lmao!

KG and Sheed are on the same team now. lol.

McDyce's highlight song is Weezer.

mcdyess would have been so good if didn't get injured

3:52 golden state and Philadelphia has jumped into the top 3

@ 3:17 feeling better

Joe Smith had a decent career, but why couldn't they end up with Rasheed Wallace or Kevin Garnett. Typical warriors

Hakeem was the first pick, and that turned out ok. But you're right, the first pick over all isn't guranteed success. The jury is still out on Rose, but he looks good. The three before him have not panned out yet, but Oden may look promising. Howard, James and Yao are stars. Olawakandi, and Kwame Brown suck. Kenyon Martin isn't a "star" but is defintely not a bust. I guess you can say the same about Elton Brand. Duncan, and Iverson were pretty good.

Ra Sheeed

Divine intervention? If God was on your side then he would have told you to draft Kevin Garnett.

pause at 1:06.

3:17 my bad

and we had to pick joe smith. damn was fucked up. lol

Could have been worse...Could have drafted Ed O'Bannon

@ 3:13 pistons keep their pick

What a waste…Warriors could’ve had Sheed, McDyess, or even KG! 😂

no he isn't.

yup. rose and oden looks good. hehe and bogut is a bust too.
