Post subject:  A Look Back at the 1998 Draft
1 Michael Olowokandi (C) Los Angeles Clippers Pacific
2 Mike Bibby (PG) Vancouver Grizzlies Arizona
3 Raef LaFrentz (C/F) Denver Nuggets Kansas
4 Antawn Jamison (F) Toronto Raptors (traded to Golden State) North Carolina
5 Vince Carter (G/F) Golden State Warriors (traded to Toronto) North Carolina
6 Robert Traylor (F/C) Dallas Mavericks (traded to Milwaukee) Michigan
7 Jason Williams (PG) Sacramento Kings Florida
8 Larry Hughes (SG) Philadelphia 76ers Saint Louis
9 Dirk Nowitzki (PF) Milwaukee Bucks (traded to Dallas) DJK Würzburg (Germany)
10 Paul Pierce (G/F) Boston Celtics Kansas

One of the worst top picks in NBA draft history with Olowokandi , while Dirk and Paul Pierce go 9 and 10. Even have Raef LaFrentz taken over his Kansas teammate Pierce.

Jamison has been a very good player after Carter got all the good press...

I remember at the time being really pissed the Warriors took Carter then traded him. He was the one I really wanted them to get
