    In the above link, it lists top 10 NBA 2nd-round draft picks.



    Question is, where will AB be on that list in the height of his career?

    I mean, I get it, this ranking is not a good ranking, but it's still a reference.

    Gary Payton, Alonzo Mourning, and Steve Francis are unlisted in that link.



    My vote goes for either 9 or 10.

    My guess is that he will never be ranked on an all time 2nd round draft picks in NBA history.

    All the other three guys were drafted 2nd overall... not even close to the 2nd round.

    And what does it mean at all? Zo was #2 behind Shaq, The Glove was #2 behind Coleman and Stevie was #2 behind Brand

    wtf?

    Second overall is not a second rounder, dude

    #2 overall means you're a second rounder, unless you were drafted #26 then you are considered a second rounder also.

    I can't believe Jason Kidd and Kevin Durant aren't on the list of the best 2nd rounders in NBA history.

    Kevin Martin was drafted #26 overall also, he should be on that second rounder list also.

    Tony Parker was drafted 28 overall. He is the third rounder cause it was 2001 NBA draft

    2+0+0+1 = 3. It is that simple

    28 is always behind of 26. It's a good reason too
