We'll never know if he would have been a good player or not, but to simply look at his total games played and saying it was bad scouting/drafting is just.... off base. 
Edit: I do agree with your overall point though. Damn I wish Irving panned out  |
TIL (I think I vaguely knew of that incident, but didn't associate a name with it).
Injuries (and other unforeseen issues) are a legitimate 'excuse' for some of these, but it applies to every other team, too.
