Gordon and Plumlee went a lot later than they should have. I know Gordon is an injury waiting to happen and Plumlee hit the rookie wall last year, but both should give at least top 100 value.

Like the Plumlee pick very much. He was #3 on my list for 124 after Kanter and a trade for Varejao.

I had hoped T. Ross would slide to 155. Again it shows that there is no one other managers aren't looking at in this group.

Last year there was a lot of trash talk between the two. Believe what I say here now has nothing to do with it for me are just facts.
TR @ 155 ??? no fk way
when i picked @118 I had on my list 4sg/sf with upside and 1pf/c looking @my team i didnt need other pf/c but since I was going to pick @134 i decided to take what was in my mind the BPA

but what happend after that:

119 3Si - Danny Green
121 Jazzfan - Marcus Smart
122 3Si - Jodie Meeks
123 insfo - JR Smith
125 Tkunit - Reggie Jackson
127 Floppymoose - Draymond Green
129 Sly - Eric Gordon
132 Theman - Manu Ginobili
134 Fran - Terrence Ross

in a total of 15 pick 6 were sg/sf and 2 were pg/sg do you think i should wait till my next pick 149? i dont think. Regarding the bright minds that picked before me

119 3Si - Danny Green - great per numbers but he is under pop sys last season he got 24-25mpg and he is not expected to get more especially since next year he is UFA and if pop got mental and decided to change the sys why should they show him ? to pay more to him or for him to get paid elsewhere

121 Jazzfan - Marcus Smart - ahhahaah ok he is great but untill rondo is there smart have no chance to play big min and remember they paid bradley too so forget it - that why i love rookies people dont get it when they should pick them or not

122 3Si - Jodie Meeks -he got paid what they can do ? right - especially when they had a kid that already step up last year when they had inj problems @sg and this year lead the team in every stat in the summer league

123 insfo - JR Smith - nyk is a mess and starting the pre season when we just bring a new coach saying i dont want to be benched shows just how smart he is not to mention the other kid they have and love and the other guy that is probably one of the two that plays D not to mention coach fish already said he was moving melo back to sf

125 Tkunit - Reggie Jackson - I like him i like him better when westbrook is inj

127 Floppymoose - Draymond Green - what will they do to iggy ? and to klay and the new coach like their sg to play D or to be like he was and shoot some 3pts DG can play D he cant shoot wait but that is what iggy can do do

129 Sly - Eric Gordon - I like him i would like him better if he could play more than 60 games a season and you know when that happend ? in is rookie and last season!!! you know what ? he had other surgery back in end of may/ early june .. what more can i say he is 100% now can be 0% in 1h

132 Theman - Manu Ginobili - I like him he already showed that he can put numbers even with limited time mills is out till end of jan / AsG he will get 10m at pg 14m @sg and put the usual line

134 Fran - Terrence Ross - ross is in his 3rd year and he will start at sf- last year at the same position he put this season numbers
26.7m
11pts
2 3pts
3.1r
1a
0.8r
0.3b
1.1to
w/nice %
and show a big grow from his rookie season now he is entering his 3rd season- need to say more

theres none that worth it sg/sf except him now with upside and that already have something to show - so slide to 155 you are being mentally dishonest

Ok, got a 2 man list ready to go. Just don't take them back to back fellas.

alright, since I'm bored and I'm always open for trades, here are all my players open for trade as long as I think the trade helps my team. Shoot offers to my e-mail.

Kyrie Irving - Mr. Efficiency who will most probably have a 18.5 - 5 - 1.5 season with great percentages and around 2 3ptm per game.

David West - The guy whom Pacers will run their offense around. Top 45 is not a really stretch goal at all, in fact it's to be expected.

George Hill - The 2nd guy that Pacers will rely on. According to reports he's had an incredible summer working out. Not only getting back to top 40 is not out of the question, surpassing top 40 is possible as well.

Tyson Chandler - The 10-10-1 guy with superb FG% is back to the team. When he was here last time, he was the essential piece to nudge them over the edge, to the trophy.

Danillo Gallinari - Before the injury the Italian was top 50 for 4 seasons in a row. 4... Do you know how difficult that is to achieve. That's how good this guy is. Expecting a top 80 season from him at worst.

JJ Redick - Before the injury he was top 45. No other explanation needed.

I can never tell from our writeups if you like the pick or not. But I will say:
Ross the main other guy I considered here. I woke up with him #1 on my list but then went Dray anyway. Reasons:
• Dray fits team better (need rebounds/assists/steals more than 3's/points)
• I think Dray will steal some minutes from Barnes
• I think Dray will steal some minutes from Speights in smallball lineups.
• Dray has shown more of an upward trajectory than Ross

With that said, I like the Ross pick and would have been happy with him at 127.

when i see a pick i always see things that i like and others that i dont
when we make a team the things we should look from 1-100 is imo bpa after that and we should look to our next picks and decide
- if they are close pick based in cats need
- if they are far away from eachother we should keep the bpa strategy

I totally understand what you did cause there are others that went with the small ball strategy but i dont agree with you chalmers curry butler they all get you alot steals same way they get you 3pts on the same % thing is you decided to go stl forgeting you would also need pts 3pts ft fg and this 4 cats with dg lost power you dont need his blk his to are irrelevant if you look to tr so you only win reb and stl imo not enough but thx :) he was my top choice after i wont tell ;)

Fran, you make solid points about Dray vs Ross but you totally overlooked assists. I think those make the comparison a lot closer than you realize. I'm trying to be above average in assists this year and that is always tricky if you don't land 2 bigtime pg's.

Meanwhile, about your trade offer... I'm only looking to trade up at this point. I'm willing to give big upgrades in the 200's to do so, but not interested in trading my 100's down.

I get so impatient when only one person is in front of me.

I swear if he comes on and says he'll pick in 10 minutes and 11 minutes go by and he hasn't picked my freaking brain will spontaneously implode into a black hole taking down everything with 1.23 parsecs with it.
