The biggest weakness of the power ranking system is that you can't hold that many players in hopes you have found (e.g.) a second round gem, because you can only give so many of these guys runs. So while it's true in aggregate each slot has a certain value, I think after the third or fourth pick for one team, the value goes down quite a bit.
I'm sure Danny Ainge is not going to draft 8 players on draft day, I guess is what I'm saying. So he has to figure out how to address that. And at the end of the day, part of the power ranking value will disappear because he will have to deal some of those picks. And of course, movement up or down from #3 will affect the value quite a bit.
However, the idea that Ben Simmons is the only player in the draft worth anything is a little much.
