it was a little weak...but you couldn't have gotten whiteside he was picked right before me.
Jokic is better than Drummond anyways.

Re: Build a Team 17.0 Rules and Discussion Thread
There are two players left that are better than everyone left and sure 60+ guys, then we enter a tier of guys who should get about 50 or less in the auction format.

Just pick and lean back.
