An excerpt from the book:
One of the rare phenomena that have happened in the NBA throughout its long history is when many talented athletes come together to try their hand at getting drafted in the same draft class. Some of the notable ones include the class of 1985, which included the likes of Patrick Ewing, Chris Mullin, Karl Malone, and Joe Dumars, among others. The class of 1998 had All-Stars Antawn Jamison and Rashard Lewis together with future Hall of Fame players Dirk Nowitzki, Paul Pierce, and Vince Carter.
But two more draft classes stand out compared to some of the best rookie batches in league history. The 1984 draft class included the greatest of all time, Michael Jordan, two-time champion Hakeem Olajuwon, Hall of Famer Charles Barkley, and all-time assist leader John Stockton. The other one, which is regarded as perhaps the greatest draft class of all time, is the 1996 class, which saw the likes of Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Ray Allen, Steve Nash, and Peja Stojakovic, among other greats. The 1996 draft class itself collectively has 58 All-Star appearances.
But if there is a draft class that has the potential to trump all the others, it would be the class of 2003. The fabled 2003 NBA Draft class has long been celebrated as one of the best batches of league hopefuls to have ever tried their hand at getting picked by a franchise. Players like LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, David West, and Chris Kaman are among the best that the class had to offer. While James, Anthony, and Wade are the three players that first come to mind when talking about the best of that class, a power forward named Chris Bosh silently and steadily became the best big man of that draft class.
