Taking a much different approach than I normally do. Normally I stay away from rookies and potential...this year I'm going for upside.

PG Kemba Walker/Jeremy Lin/Patrick Beverley
SG OJ Mayo/Courtney Lee/Kentavious Caldwell-Pope
SF Nicolas Batum/Danny Granger/Michael Beasley
PF Kevin Love/Kelly Olynyk
C Greg Monroe/Omer Asik/Steven Adams

Thanks man...I am really excited about Olynyk. I basically have Kevin Love & Kevin Love Jr. Adams has to at least get some good run, right? He is backing up the worst player in the league from a year ago, statistically. Perkins has said that he was a steal, as well.

Yeah it's awesome when a positive article comes out about a sleeper after you pick them. Just read two about KCP...

"Kentavious Caldwell-Pope's composure stands out in Detroit Pistons' guard competition"

http://www.mlive.com/pistons/index.ssf/ ... _comp.html

"Never-nervous Kentavious Caldwell-Pope making noise with Pistons"

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/2013 ... CFRONTPAGE

Dude seems like he is a true professional and very composed/poised for being a rookie. Also very complimentary towards his jumper and defense.

I think Daniel Orton will get some burn into some of those backup minutes. Adams has excellent raw talent, but his game needs a lot of development. His footwork is not good and he lacks a low post game. In Summer League, people were excited to see what the lottery pick, Adams could do... but Orton showed him up.
Adams finished with averages of 9 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 27 minutes per game on 60 percent shooting. Orton averaged 12 points, 5 rebounds, 1 steal and 1.7 blocks in only 16.7 minutes per game while shooting 66.7 percent from the floor. I remember thinking... uh... we could use a back up like him at the moment. doh.

Olynyk is in a great position to seize the moment though. That's a pick of yours that I liked. It's a little crowded over there, but I think he'll emerge.

Interested in seeing how my team stacks up to yours in the end considering you won this league last year. Looks like a strong squad. Having Lebron as your anchor is a major advantage. I think your biggest weakness is at C, but those are hard to trade for and get equal value back due to position scarcity.

I thought the order of the draft was determined by last year's standings. Who won then?

Yeah I thought it was weird that the defending champ didn't return. I'm definitely weakest at center, but in hoping I can gang rebound and block enough to make up for it.

Alright folks, as the draft comes to a close I'd love for all of you to look at your rosters inside and out, then look at mine. As I said before I'm in the market for a quality PG, doesn't have to be a top ten-type guy at that position either. I have plenty of decent pieces to assemble a deal that works for both sides too.

Again, PM or Email me if you'd to have some exploratory discussions regarding a deal just to establish the foundation, even possible framework.

Thanks guys!

I wanted to give props to TNMagicFan. He's done a great job helping out with the draft and I think we all really appreciate it.

Also thanks to everyone who helped out with picks via email
