Well, there is a reason why Jerry Krause wanted him. So we disagree, and he did pan out to be a great player.
Scottie came in as the same skinny skrawny little kid who no one knew about out of Arkansas, and he held his own. I'm sure Tracey Mcgrady would have held his. I'm saying it would have worked out brilliantly.
You don't have to like Krause, but in his prime, as a GM, I would put my money on him. His picks and trades were spot on.
Fact: Jordan never got out of the first round without Krause, Pippen, or Phil, or any of the players that Krause brought along. However, when jordan retired, all of them nearly advanced to the ECF.
Jerry Knew what the fuck he as doing. He knew how to draft main and secondary pieces.
He drafted or traded for:
Earl Monroe( bullets) Pippen Grant King Perdue Bj Armsrong Cartwright Kerr Brian Williams cliff Livingston Longley Harper Burrell Kukoc Hodges Buchler Brown Wennington Blount
Each and every one of those players played their part and participated to help the bulls win a ring. So yeah, based on krause's gm history during that era, Mcgrady would have worked out.
