The coaching picks will be interesting, you could get a HOF coach but if he doesn't fit your roster then it doesn't mean anything.

oh i agree. actually make that board 4 but the #4 guy is probably like the worst coach who will be picked.

Selected Joakim Noah with my final pick, some of you will hate on it, but all i have to say is check the advanced stats, they completely validate my pick. especially his offensive and defensive rtg's

also fits my team, my bigs were lacking in a little skill, Noah is a very skilled passer and like my other bigs very good defensively, adds some efficiency and will do anything to win.
Overall I feel I have one of the best passing teams in this league

I love Noah but his chronic foot issues are a huge red flag, especially since his career is only a few years deep.

But your team is one of the better passing ones too.

Nope, and as a Knick fan I'm glad he got in.

Although I think Spree8 should have gotten a true SF though....

yeah but we aren't projecting how much longer his career will be, all we have is what he's done and theorhetically in a backup role, i am saving his body.

Still can't believe one guy is still available. I almost took him two rounds ago...

Rip has played sf plenty...he's even listed as a guard-forward. Was gunna go with the X-Man (a bigger sf), but decided he could be risky with chemistry. Other than that, there's no better fit than Starks...happy I got him.

Coaching picks are mostly meaningless. A good coach simply coaches to his players strength.

I'd be more critical of the judging on coaches if we had picked the coaches first and then built our teams around that.

Imagine the reach you would've made.

At this point players are being passed up because teams have that position filled already.

I was thinking of a former Maverick/Piston from the late 80s that would have been real nice, I'll let you know once the player draft is over.

Isiah's boy huh? Thought of him, but wanted someone who could spread the floor, and pass (Starks dished 5-6 apg in his prime) with good defense. I think stylistically he's a perfect fit.

Not sure if you realized it but you picked out of order, ahead of the person in front of you. No one seems to have cared, so that's fine...just pay closer attention, please.

People aren't numbering their picks, and when they get skipped and pick randomly later on they don't specify...when I count 196, and then another pick afterwards I'm assuming its 197...shouldn't have to be a detective especially when the first page with the results isn't updated either. Just sayin....this also happened earlier today when 4 picks were OTC. .
