I don't think it was too early. Someone else would have picked him not long after. He will flourish and if the cavs rest Kyrie a bit it will benefit Mo the most.

You can make your pick. I posted it from your list but didn't realize you were here so I removed it just in case you had a change of heart.

Thanks for the option but I'll stick with Trey Burke. Hopefully a big year ahead of him. Just needs to lift his fg%.

Yep, it's a bold pick, but if he gets his shooting % up to even mediocre levels, around .400, it's going to make a world of difference. With Exum out he's going to have plenty of opportunities to improve.

I've got my picks ready...be ready to turn the corner.

Now that you've said that, odds that dsg is busy at the moment and takes the full 6hrs?

[LBPTarHeel27]

So....

PG Isaiah Thomas, Jarret Jack
SG Andrew Wiggins, Kobe Bryant
SF Rudy Gay, Bojan Bogdanovic
PF Blake Griffin, Jared Sullinger
C Rudy Gobert, Gorgui Dieng

Any thoughts? Fantasy basketball isn't my strong point.

Wait, did you take Sullinger with your most recent pick?

Edited my post too.

I like it. There are some guys in there who could be really hit or miss, but when you pick last I think you're almost duty bound to go for more risky picks than everyone else. Blake Griffin is Blake Griffin. If you get 18, 4 and 4, or something close to that, out of Kobe (and he improves is efficiency) and Gobert and Wiggins push on from last year, you could have the makings of a nice team. Rudy Gay (much as I dislike him as a player IRL) is a nice fantasy player. Jarrett Jack looks like he'll start in Brooklyn, Bogdanovic could get plenty of opportunities there, too, and Thomas excelled in Boston last year.

Thanks for the critique...I agree on every point. Picking last is tough, so I figured I would try and go with guys with high upside. If Kobe can be somewhat efficient, I think he is a steal there. If he shoots under 40%...then it could hurt. Gobert, Wiggins, Dieng, Bogdanovic, Thomas, & Sullinger are guys that could take a big leap forward. Hopefully a few of them actually do and the rest replicate what they did last year but more efficiently. Gay & Griffin should give me a little stability. Jack should get a lot of minutes.

I assume since Ben was skipped on his last pick, he is skipped here as well?

Makes sense if you only get 6 hrs when you are on the book ends of the snake.

I don't think so. That only applies for yourself and Skin. Since three other people (4 picks) went after he was skipped, he benefits from another 6 hour clock. Hopefully, since it's mid morning now where he is, he should be around soon to make his selections. Assuming he didn't have too heavy a Saturday night.

Yeah, he gets another 6 hour clock.

I tried to keep the rules simple, but I think I'll update it so it helps clarify things for next year.

[HoraceGrant]

I'm surprised he hasn't been around in so long....although it is Saturday during football season.

[fendilim]

Ben come back..., we forgive you......

[fendilim]

[Bensational]

Sorry guys, I'm on the road for work, and I had no idea Tasmania had no phone reception where I am.

[Bensational]

Can someone email mm123 for me?

[fendilim]

Can someone email mm123 for me?

Done. So does mm123's clock redtart since ben has picked already?

It doesn't restart after Ben's last pick... It starts after his time limit expired.

[MitchellUK]

Am I missing something, why did we skip Horace and Dwightmare?

[HoraceGrant]

Yeah, I just woke up and realized I think we were both skipped. Luckily the guy I wanted was still available, not sure about Dwightmare. I emailed him.
