Of course I'm not saying that Dunleavy was a fantastic pick at #3.

Either am I, I think he'll be a good player but I think obviously in hindsight Stoudemire or Hilario were better picks. Murphy was terrific but he's not going to block shots and dominate inside the way those 2 may eventually do it.

But they felt Dunleavy had the highest ceiling and would ultimately replace either Jamison or Richardson.
