Yes, I brought it up. No, I wasn't using it as an insult. I just think it's pertinent information, especially since Jason chose to run on his club's record. While I certainly realize that no one can really "control for" when they're going to get a good draftee, I do think it's meaningful for someone who's looking at Jason's "five straight finals appearences" and "straight from IV to II" to consider what (if any) role they think the 2.25M draftee played in the latter. There are certainly plenty of examples of teams that squander a multi-million dollar draft pick, so it's not necessarily an indictment of someone's BB skill that they managed to turn a 2M+ payday into consecutive promotions.
