Kerrsed you "bum" I wanted Lebron

I'll have to settle for the Joker

Kerrsed you "bum" I wanted Lebron

I think with the east being much weaker, Lebron is going to have a field day. I also think that with IT instead of Irving, Lebrons stats across the board will go up because he will have to do more (specially if IT misses as much time as is being rumored). In my eyes, Lebron at #10 is a steal.

King James.

Man, you are obsessed. You even have to get a pic of Lance Stephenson in there when you make your LeBron fantasy pick. I originally considered LeBron at my spot because I figured his #s might go up without Kyrie ISO'ing so much and IT not around for a long time. Plus, with all the other stars consolidating it could hurt them and LeBron losing one could help.

Exactly!

The only real downside that i could see is that the East will be such a cakewalk that Lebron ends up sitting a lot more (But i doubt it).

I figured he'd be less likely to sit too because at least before they had Kyrie and if IT is out for awhile he shouldn't sit. They had a terrible record when he sat anyway. I don't know that the east top 5-7 will be worse, and they might be better. It's just the bottom 7-8 could be really really bad.

I was a fool thinking Bron Bron would fall to me. Guess I'm gonna go with the safe option and pick John Wall.

[STEV13]

13. DMC
14. Gobert

[Maystack]

Aaaah, hate drafting in this position. There's a player I could really reach for because he could literally go anywhere in the next twenty places, but I'm gonna roll the dice and hope he's there for my next pick. Gonna go double PG to start the draft and pick Lillard here.

[WeekapaugGroove]

I'll take Chris Paul

So, Leonard in the first round and Jimmy Butler in the 2nd round for me again, draft going the same as last year.
I finished 2nd in the Premier League last year, so it's probably a good sign that things are carrying on so far this year

Yeah, i was real close to taking him with my pick, but there was too much uncertainty there for me to risk in with a 2nd round pick. While i think he will give Thibs 110%, i just dont know if he can match his performance last season where he was the main man on the Bulls. Playing next to Teague/Wiggins/KAT has to really limit his upside, a bit too much for my liking.

Myles Turner

Myles Turner

Turner is a great pick. I was hoping he would fly under the radar a bit more and fall to me at #27. He's poised to have a great breakout season.

Thing with Butler is that he's not only great on offense, but defense as well. He was already putting up great numbers as a secondary offensive option next to Rose, Pau Gasol, and Noah back in the day, and Wade/Rondo last year, so even with other offensive options on the team Butler will still get his stats. Thibodeau will give him a primary offensive role for sure too.

Oh, i totally agree, and thats why he was almost my pick.

Myles Turner

Nice - was hoping he'd be one of my next two guys. Killed it for me last year once he hit his strides

Yeah, but would you have been able to find a pic with him and Lance tho?
