The Marvin Williams pick was absurd. When you have gaping holes at center and the point, and 11 other 6-8 guys on the roster, drafting a 6-8 guy doesn't do a lot of good. Understood the thinking on Shelden Williams in that they wanted someone to do some dirty work inside, but I don't think that was the right player to do it. He's got a pretty limited upside if you ask me, so I wasn't very happy with that pick either.

I will say Boris Diaw was a horrible player in Atlanta. That guy was as soft as they come. Last year was a fluke, he's already come back down this year from last year's numbers. I'd gladly take Joe Johnson over him.
