Not very active all of a sudden?

Anyone around to take a list? If not you can rest assured that I will be making my pick in 7-8 hours from this post (if its my turn by then).

Looks like about 15 minutes til skipping time.

Aaaaand, I'm off to bed. I'll be up bright and early though if there is a rush of picks, unexpectedly.

Thanks saki and cy, you made my decision really easy as my 3 man list got whittled to one.

Once again let me just say that's why this league is great...it's just really difficult to get value because we all know it when we see it. A true test of skills.

Korver is a really good pick at this point. I briefly considered moving up to nab him, but he is not that good.

Both Kemba Walker and Kyrie Irving are on the trading block. Any offers are welcome (either picks or players or picks&players)

Wellllllllllll.... ****.

YOu guys took all my targets. All of them. I was at #41 and had Favors, Rubio, Hayward, Ellis, and Korver on my list. I figured one or two would slide down. They always do. Imagine my joy to wake up and see 3 of my targets go back to back to back right before I pick leaving my basket empty.

So.....

It's back to the drawing board for me. Don't expect me to pick quickly. :(

I'll spare you the stress--I'm interested in trading up with my 77th pick. Wanna make a deal?

I really need to make a list. I about gave up and took Ty Lawson. One quick check and he went in the 30s...

Ariza. Not too exciting of a pick. I'm hoping #1 that Chandler's production was largely a product of the Houston system and that will carry over to Ariza and #2 that Ariza can stay reasonably healthy. If I hit on both of those it's a great pick. If I miss on either it's very lackluster. If I miss on both, well....

The Ariza pick was a no-brainer. He probably should have gone 10 picks ago. I was surprised to see him drop.

Touche. I actually seriously considered Ariza instead of Rhino, but Rhino's numbers were better, and he had C eligibility.

I certainly had both of my brain cells working overtime to come up with him. I didn't like that he faded down the stretch last year and his horrible injury history. Dude never seems to play a whole season.

Still, he's got plenty to like.

Now I'll have to do this all over again after one more pick. Such sweet torture.
