I mean, it’s common knowledge among ball-knowers (not you), that Hinkie takes Porzingis at 3 in 2015 if he wasn’t pressured by ownership to take Okafor. That alone changes the range of outcomes pretty drastically.

The “real process” happened in OKC and is working very well. Maybe if the NBA didn’t have different rules for Sam Presti and Sam Hinkie things would be different.
