NBA Draft
7. Golden State: Dion Waiters, SG, Syracuse. Although he's not a great fit with the guard-heavy Warriors, he's too talented to pass on here. Waiters is an explosive athlete -- UConn fans saw it firsthand -- who figures to be better in the NBA than he was in college (his numbers are skewed because Syracuse played such a balanced system).

But Kahn's insistence on selecting point guard Jonny Flynn with the next pick after Rubio in '09 and his decision to pass on center DeMarcus Cousins to take shooting guard Wesley Johnson in the 2010 draft now look like questionable choices.
For those keeping score, Kahn is batting .500 with four top-six picks over the past three drafts. Thumbs up to Rubio and Williams. Thumbs down to Flynn and Johnson.
