Be The GM 3.0: Write Ups Due Sunday (7/15/12)

[CinciSixersFan]

Dilbert (Pacers), any interest in Thaddeus Young and my (Lakers) 10th for your two 8th rounders?

Sixer Fixer, any interest in moving Courtney Lee in a deal for Thad Young?

[deep6er]

SIxer Fixer, I'll toss you my 11th round pick 11(18), just to move up 9 spots.

So it would be 8(13) and 11(18) to you for 8(4). I just want to make sure my guy doesn't get grabbed from under me.

No, not really interested in Thad.

Sorry, but I have extra picks so that 11 I wouldn't even use (I assume we only draft 12 players). I will be done before that 11 comes up.

Dilbert (Pacers), any interest in Thaddeus Young and my (Lakers) 10th for your two 8th rounders?

Not really looking to add Thad to the Pacers. I got my theme, and I'm sticking to it. The Wiz would do 8-26 and 10-26 for Thad and 12-21, if that appeals.

[The Sixer Fixer]

Hopefully I didn't miss him getting picked earlier....

The Atlanta Hawks select Terrence Jones.

Having guys like Odom and Marion who have split time at the 3 and 4 spots through their careers, will be a major asset to Jones. He can learn from some of the more versatile forwards. Even Ilyasova will be a good mentor for him.

Let's see how the next round pans out, it's possible

[CinciSixersFan]

The LA Lakers are interested in getting 2 picks for Thad Young. Would love an 8 and a 9, might do a 9 and 10 if it is early. I need multiple role players, you would get a serious contributor who is only 23. Let me know

My 9 (2) and 10 (29).

Any interest in adding Nick Young to sweeten the deal? Drop the 10th for Young?

[deep6er]

Moefro, I'll make the same offer to you. You can have my 11th rounder 11(18) just to move back 8 spots.

So it would be 8(13) and 11(18) to you for 8(5).

[NBD23]

I'll take Tyler hansborough and Gary Neal

[NBD23]

PK what do you think of my squad so far?

Hmm. Have to think about that one.

[moefro44]

I choose F James Jones. This guy will help spread the floor if guys like Davis or Noah get double teamed and will help open up driving lanes for guys like Shumpert and Jennings. I need a pure shooter and he is a former 2 time 3 pt shooting champ.

[Semaj]

With the 6th pick in the 8th round, the Indiana Pacers (Dilbert719) select...



6'7" 193 lbs. - Rip Hamilton

Wizards...
You certainly have an athletic team, but I'm just not feeling them. Obviously, I like DRose but Stuckey isn't a good fit next to him. Just as an example, a guy like Wes Matthews would of been really nice because he can play off the ball and also hits the three well...something Stuckey does neither of. Stuckey is actually a poor man's DRose...not as athletic, but both have good size and can get to the strike a good amount. Galinari is a good fit with Rose...he plays off the ball, but at the same time, can score even Rose is off.

First, PJIII isn't a PF. Could he play the 4? Sure, but he'll need to do it in stretches. You do have Galinari, who is a 3 but can play the 4, so maybe that was your idea there? Not sure, but either way, you just don't know what you'll get out of Jones. Could end up being quite the steal, but I don't think in year one he'll do all that much. As for DeAdre Jordan...not a hueg fan of his unless he's next to a good PF. He's strong on D, but he'll literally give you nothing on offense.

Pacers...
Now this is a team I love. Nash/Billups, although not perfect, is a good fit together. They can both still play. We know Nash will make everyone better, and Billups is more than willing to hit the big shot. I still love Prince. He's been so under-the-radar because of how bad the Pistons are, but he's still a very good defensive player, and can still do a little bit of everything on offense. What can you say about Duncan? He'll have to take a little bit more of a scoring role with this club, but no reason he can't be successful. Not in love with Kaman as a player, but he's fine with this team. Just another vet. Even after taking this team over late, you did a really good job of drafting. Your pieces fit really well...much better than the Wiz IMO.

[moefro44]

PK5, can you do my team too?

[ZarcMumoff]

Yup, I'll probably get through them tonight/tomorrow morning.

As a sidenote, here's my Top 5 (this is mostly win now) in no particular order:

1. Bobcats
2. Rockets
3. Bulls

After that it really is a toss up. A lot of good teams, but those three (besides my own) stick out to me. Will have to go in a little more in depth to see who else I like.

[Koponen]

Anybody interested in Jrue Holiday for a SF or Jrue+Danny Green and picks for and upgrade at SF?

[MasterP3]

I would consider Holiday for Wilson Chandler & pick(s).

[Koponen]

I would consider Holiday for Wilson Chandler & pick(s).

Would prefer to give up Jrue+good assets for Gordon, but depending upon what picks I was getting with Chandler, I'd be interested.
