    What year do you think had the best draft class?

    Other than 1984 of course, what do you think was the best draft class ever in the last 20 years?

    Here is a link to check out the players:

    I'd have to say 1996, but since it has Kobe I am obviously biased.

    If this thread is about the best draft class in 20 years, why are you taking out the BEST ('84)? Pointless thread to begin with and now even more so

    1996 without a doubt:

    Allen Iverson = MVP candidate
    Antoine Walker = All-Star
    Kobe Bryant = MVP candidate
    Steve Nash = One of the best PG's
    Shareef = One of the Top PF in East
    Ray Allen = All-Star
    Stephon Marbury = One of the best PG's

    85 had Ewing and Mullin to name a few. By far though, 84 is the best by a long shot. 94 had some pretty good players also Kidd,Robinson,Hill,Rose,Jones, to name a few. 95 had wallace,garnett,stack,finley, to name a couple also. 84 is by shich all draft classes are measured.

    Other than Shaq and Mourning, these players are role players. 1996 had many more all-stars
