top 5 biggest NBA draft steals of all time.

[riseagainst]

what you think?

and no, you cannot list a number 1 pick as a steal.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Manu

the rest
honestly besides Tom Brady i dont know a bigger draft steal out of the major sports considering his spot. Dirk and Kobe were steals too obviously but Manu was 57th thats just insane look at the 57th pick of the last several years:biggums: :biggums:

[fiddy]

IT?

[QuebecBaller]

Gilbert Arenas (31st pick)
Ben Wallace (N/A)
Michael Redd (43rd overall)

[dubeta]

lebron :bowdown: :bowdown:

[ThatCoolKid]

Marc Gasol
Monta Ellis

[kennethgriffin]

I'd say kobe but the team that drafted him ended up with vlade

[Ruler]

Marc Gasol
Isaiah Thomas (5'9")
Manu Ginobili
Tony Parker
Paul Millsap
Kyle Korver
Lou Williams
Paul George
Trevor Ariza
Monta Ellis

These are just recent really good late picks. George is one of the few I listed in the first round because he was worthy of a #1 overall pick IMO, and he went 10th. Usually tenth overalls don't develop into superstars.

Monta Ellis and its not even close. 3rd best SG ever and he got drafted at #40

[FatComputerNerd]

craziest draft ever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1996_NBA_draft

[sd3035]

Kobe at #13

[HurricaneKid]

Monta Ellis ... 3rd best SG ever

OMFG.

Dude that never won anything, never made an All-Star game, is better than the two of these guys: MJ, Kobe, West, DWade.

You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding.

Gilbert Arenas was a second rounder I believe

[Carter_17]

OMFG.

Obviously he isn't better than MJ and Kobe.
West played at 50s so he is irrelevant. And yes he is better than Wade(but its really close). Monta was never hyped by the media, was sent to the freaking Bucks by mark Jackson and not to mention he didn't have any superfriends to recruit in order to save his legacy. Ye he didn't win anything with Mark Jackson who couldn't pass the first playoff round and kerr with the same team got the champion in his rookie year.
He didn't win anything with Bucks. He just dragged with Jennings that shitty irrelevant team to the playoffs only to lose from superfriends while both of them were puting a show.

He didn't win anything with a cripple Dirk , a cancerous Rondo , the worst max player ever ( Parsons) who also got injured and ended up fighting with 35 years old Chandler, 36 years old Dirk who is slow af, aminu , JJ freaking I am not even 6 ft white dude and I am starting on a playoff team in the West Barea, Villanueva , Felton and the waived Amare.
Oh and not to mention he lost to 7th game from SA a year before while Wade almost got swept with his super friends.

[Mr. Jabbar]

D'Angelo Russell.

[Cleverness]

Draymond Green

[Borat_Sagdyev]

Manu Ginobili 57th
Tony Parker 28
Marc Gasol 48
Paul Millsap 47
Michael Redd 43
Gilbert Arenas 30
Monta Ellis 40
Marcin Gortat 57
Isaiah Thomas 60

[Prime_Shaq]

Ben Wallace went from undrafted to 4x DPOY and the anchor to on of the best defensive teams of the 00s.

[L.Kizzle]

Willis Reed was 2nd round pick in 1964. (To be fair, Reed was the 8th pick in the draft.) Alex English and Dennis Johnson were both taken in 2nd round of the same draft 1976.

[imnew09]

Kawai Leonard was a steal who stole FMVP from Lebeta :bowdown:

[Fudge]

Kevin Durant at 2.

LeBron James at 1.

[chocolatethunder]

Van Exel was a second rounder also.
