Suns 2006 NBA Draft report card

Hard to believe a team that traded out of the 2006 Draft entirely gets a 'C' grade, but that's what Steve Kerr of Yahoo! Sports awarded the Phoenix Suns for what they did. Apparently, the Suns had hoped to deal up and get Thabo Sefalosha, but when that fell through, they added a 2007 first round pick, freed up some cap room and acquired some cash. "For a team interested in winning a title next season, two late first-round picks weren't going to help much," says Kerr, "so this was about as good as the Suns were going to do barring a deal to move up." You think so?

It was a weak draft...the Suns did what the Mavericks should have done...why give them a C when its the best possible move they could have made?
