    Great write up!

    Hope people check it out. Makes sense intuitively that the number 1 overall pick, late first, and early second would be good value picks.

    Thanks for sharing.

    why is pick 48 so good? All because of Marc Gasol?

    Great read! I wonder why number 20 is so awful.

    What is up with the second pick in drafts anyway? I've definitely noticed that pattern of drop-offs at the second pick. Maybe teams are more inclined to swing for the fences at number 2 than at other spots, because of the desperation of feeling "so close yet so far" from the first pick and wanting a superstar. Perhaps teams over-analyze at the 2 spot and make poorer decisions...
