The draft continued.
The Cleveland Cavaliers had this year's number three pick, and after the Supersonics selected Kyrie Irving with the number two pick, they felt they were in an excellent position.
They already had a cornerstone for building the team.
John Wall was getting better and better, but one person couldn't do everything. As a rebuilding team, they had to choose the most talented person remaining.
They were thrilled that Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was still on the list.
They almost gleefully chose McGee with their second pick, the so-called fusion of Gerald Wallace and Scottie Pippen, which could definitely not be wrong.
Then, almost as if it were destined, Bradley Beal was selected by the Wizards Team with the fourth overall pick in the first round.
Only this time, D.C. didn't have Wall anymore.
Because of the lockout, Brandon Knight, who played an extra year in college, was chosen by the Charlotte Bobcats.
