The Yakupov pick was terrible - they should be bashed endlessly for it.
I could care less if he was consensus top pick or not. Properly managing that pick wouldn't have turned that crap franchise around, but it might have stopped the leaking so at least the ship didn't sink. One could give them a pass if it was their first 1st ov pick, but it was their 3rd in a row at number one.
An outstanding epic fail, even for them.
