Sure, but they didn't look as bad as they do currently. Lots of people thought they'd make a push to the 9-10 seed. They still might do that, the standings are that tight.
Like I said, there's plenty of unkowns. I'm not saying ROR would've been better than the top 5 pick. But I'm not ready to say he would've been a bad move either. It doesn't matter now anyways, they didn't get him. Situation is what it is now. I just hope they make the correct decision from here.
