Now, I'm not saying any of the 3 have the length / athletic combo. I'm saying it ain't THAT hard to find length / athletic combo when you have the whole world to pick from, and you're only searching to 2 attributes.
If you want length / athletic / strong / can shoot / can avoid fouling once a minute, it gets much harder. If you think you can teach shooting and defense to KA but can't compensate for someone else's athletic ability who can shoot, I'd say KA is a perfectly good draft pick.
I'm not rooting against him (I'm indifferent), but he's got a long way to go.

Disagree that finding that height and athleticism isn't that hard. That's why Kostas was drafted
the vast, vast majority of big guys have Matt Cooper or worse athleticism
