Funny thing is I remember thinking "I'm surprised Terrence isn't first" and then it thought maybe it was for free throw %. Kieff been working those 3s though.

I'm not a fan and I think his numbers will drop but I guess I need a PG so I'll take Ty Lawson.

Damn! I really wanted him with my next pick. I think he's vastly underranked. I think his assists will drop, but I think he will hit more 3s. Still probably good for 1.5 3s and 5-6 assists, plus at least 1 steal.

I think it all depends on how they use him. If he's paired with harden for all his minutes then his numbers could drop but if they are smart and stagger those two a bit and let Lawson run the second unit he could have a real nice year.

Nice sneaky pick. He was the guy I was debating taking over Lawson but I didn't like what was left at pg.

Yes, I love those 3s and FT%. FG% hurts a little but he also is pretty good in steals. In hindsight I probably would have taken him over Lawson because I already have Westbrook and George Hill.

please next time listen to yer heart and go full luke skywalker judo move and just do the right thing

i dgaf about FTs because they are not fun. the biggest advantage markieff has over tjones is probably durability. i drafted tjones in a league last yr and before he got injured...holy cow it was paying off. so sad i won't be able to reap the benefits if he's healthy htis yr

Koplegend's profile says he was last active today around 2PM Phx time, so I'm not sure why he didn't pick. Hopefully soon.

To quote Bill Simmons :

He's the Black Mamba, he's Kobe Bryant, he's my next pick, and since we finally have that settled, I will now light myself on fire.

Not a bad pick at 86. He was taken higher in the other drafts....MUCH higher in one of them.

I was actually planning on taking Tyson Chandler, who I think will have a very good season with the Suns trainers despite maybe playing a couple less minutes per game.

But Kobe can still stuff the stat sheet and might be more useful with the IR spot

Anyone up for trading 8th and 9th rounders? I got pick 104 and 105 I believe.

Now this is a tough one for me. There are two players I want, and even though I have two pretty close picks, I'm not sure I'll be able to grab them both. I'm gonna go for Ryan Anderson here and hope that the other player can last a few more picks.
