Boston hired Rick Pitino and based all their hopes on landing Tim Duncan. The lottery gods were against Boston that year. Instead, Pitino lands Chauncey Billups at no. 3. Pitino leaves for Lousiville a couple of years later, and the Celtics proceed to be one of the worst teams over the next 10 years. San Antonio lands Duncan, and has been the most dominant team with several championships to show for it. Reminds me of the 1997 draft.
