The NBA is, in my opinion, the most superstar-driven league in American sports. Fans tune in to watch special players. As a fan, it makes me sad to think that a player like Anthony Davis who could be very special out of the gate more than likely has to go to a team like Charlotte that's completely devoid of talent or direction.
Don't get me wrong, it's how the lottery works -- the shitty teams have the best chance to get the best prospects. The most exciting part is looking at the young teams and imagining how the influx of young talent can effect them going forward, especially a team like Minnesota who's got a good coach and some fantastic building blocks already.
I know it's a long shot, but Christ... could you imagine Anthony Davis, Ricky Rubio and Kevin Love. I'm getting hard just thinking about that. Or Anthony Davis and John Wall in Washington? Or Davis, Irving and Thompson in Cleveland? All of those scenarios are good for fans, regardless of who you root for. With this being a deep draft, a lot of teams are going to have the opportunity to acquire a young building block. In my eyes, all of the lottery picks can land a guy who can help them right away.
