    I realize they only drafted one of them (Wade) but just wondering if anyone can think of a NBA championship level team that has had as many high draft choices as the Heat? Looking at their roster they have 7 players on their current roster that were selected in the top 6 of the NBA draft?

    Michael Beasley was also one of their high draft picks, with the 2nd pick in the 08 draft

      He was a high draft pick from the moment the rookie symposium took place. Sorry I couldn’t resist…

     I think, more impressively, Indiana didn’t have any until they acquired Evan Turner a couple weeks ago.

    Of the top of my head I can’t think of any. I know the Lakers in 88 had four 1st pick overalls (Magic, Kareem, Worthy and Mychal Thompson) and a 4th pick overall in Byron Scott but I don’t believe they had any other top 6 selections. The Heat also had a lot of high selections in 2006 (Shaq, Zo, Payton, DWade, Antoine Walker and Jason Williams) but not 7.
