    Probably. Bruce Bowen and John Starks are also on that list.

    Damn, there's been a lot of great steals. Here are some of the guys who I think are the biggest steals ever...

    Manu Ginobili - One of the last picks of the 2002 draft. He came off the bench for the Spurs and showed that he could do everything (scoring, passing, defense, etc). Every year, Manu has been productive. Along the way, he's earned a couple of awards and championships. Gino is one of the reason why the SA Spurs have had so much success in the playoffs. He's actually one of my favorite players ever.

    Dennis Rodman - The Worm! Not an offensive player, but that didn't really matter since he was spectacular at everything else. IMO, the most skilled rebounder ever and easily one of the best all-around defenders the game has ever seen.

    Michael Redd - This guy was so fun too watch. His left-handed jumpshot was really smooth. Redd averaged 20+ ppg for 6 straight seasons and was named an all-star once, in 2004. IMO, he should've been selected more than once. If I remember correctly, he's had one of the highest win shares since 2000. Top 5, I think (?). When Redd was at his best, he was real good. Sadly, towards the end of his career, he didn't get a chance to play a lot of games because of injuries.

    Monta Ellis - Very good scorer. Oh and don't forget... Monta have it all.

    Chandler Parsons, Carlos Boozer, Millsap and Marc Gasol were are great steals.

    The Spurs excluding Timmy.

    Parker- 28th pick (last of the first round)
    Ginobli- 57th pick (2nd to last overall)
    Leonard- 15th pick

    Even Splitter was, like Parker, the last pick of the first round.

    Kiciking themselves for passing on a guy who said he would not sign or play for them?
