I thought between VC, Tucker and SwagyP. Ended up picking VC because Memphis needs some scoring really desperately. Tucker could be top 90 again but he isn't an exciting player to follow.

I'm just curious if you guys would have been interested in VC if he was available.

Probably not. Scoring isn't as high a commodity at this stage in the draft as some of the others. Tucker was the most interesting to me, but he has heavy competition this year.

Who is around to take Brian's (WB) 1-man list for 157?

when I said scoring, I meant outside scoring, in other words 3ptm. Memphis has been one of the worst 3pt shooting teams in the league for a couple of years now. they need the shooting and they even need creativity and assists. hopefully VC will provide these

Sorry for the delay, took me a while to make my selections.

And I think we're into the backups and flyers phase of the draft now. I expect a lot of swinging for the fences.

And what the F was Wes Johnson still doing on the board for? I did a quick search to see if he was injured and out for the year or something and what came up was that his coach is probably made him the starter. Was ranked #86 and was still sitting on the board at #161?

I don't know. I searched the draft list for both Wes and Johnson and he didn't come up either way. But, I'll keep looking to see if someone tells me he went earlier.

Lakers' rotation is much deeper than last year. They added Lin, Boozer, and a few others who will demand minutes and the ball... And Kobe. They also re-signed Nick Young to a long contract and they won't just sit him on the bench and let his value dip. In short, there's no way Wes Johnson is going to matches the minutes and the touches he saw last year.

their SG/SF rotation is same as last year. in fact it may be a little shallower... but of course Meeks is replaced by Kobe. So touches will be less for other players, though it's not like Wesley Johnson's usage can go much lower than last year. Still even a little dip in production places him lower than VC-Tucker-SwagyP for me. Him going around 150-160 range is alright I think.

I think a few people probably considered taking Johnson a few times, but you know what you are getting from him; and theres still a few guys like that left after him

Hey guys, I've got a window of wifi today, I'll have more next week. I wanted to thank those who've helped me draft so far.

As for the picks, the Sims pick was deep sleeper, but probably one of the best of the last 15 or so. I went deep sleeper as well, and by the lack of chatter, it was neither really good or really bad.

I agree with everyone else that Wes Johnson had an up year thanks to the mess that was LA last year.

I hope sly is online to confirm this because pick 162 is about to be skipped in 50 minutes.

Flirted with another guy, one of my favourites. As a Raptors fan, there's a possibility of no minutes here for JJ. But if he can pull in 15, and if any injury happens at 2/3/4, I'm betting he'll be a stud.

You moved up because you were afraid of me getting him, correct? I have a weird obsession with James Johnson's fantasy game and I know I'm not alone in that (cough*stick*cough)

fraanciiscoo · Post #838 » by **fraanciiscoo** » Thu Sep 11, 2014 1:12 pm

you will be fine with tiago and stuckey
belive me when i say @149 i was between 2 names stuckey and Mirza
I went w mirza just because he is on the same team and PP is not there anymore w/19mpg he was a stud and i expected his numbers to raise and raise Regarding stucked what i didnt like it was - he is on a new team they got to decide if they going to move cj to sg and give time to shill @sf or if they going to put stuckey @sg giving time to cj @sf he only signed 1year contract so idk what they going to do with him but if they decided by him i think his numbers with be around 14pts 2.5r 3.5a w 0.6stl and 3pts bad fg and to good ft the problem is if they decided to bench him since they will need someone to score in the 2nd unit and he sucked offbench on det
regarding tiago i like him alot but i just dont like pop´s rotation sys i think he kill the value of all team fantasy wise ofc

I had two guys. Was more afraid that both would be gone. We're down to some slim pickings but still some upside guys that I didn't want to miss out on.
