Battier and Bobby Jones in the third, Christie, Bowen, Majerle, Horry and Bo freaking Outlaw in the first half of the fourth. Damn those role players are going high.

I disagree. Outside of Horry and Outlaw this is generally when those guys start to get picked.

I’m using ‘93 Majerle. Is he much worse than I thought he was?

Was it Lowry by chance? The best player on a 60 win team for 12.1 fga?

I was referring to Oladipo, this is already the 3rd time I've drafted 2018 Oladipo so maybe I just value him more than others, but I thought his combination of 23ppg scoring all-star + defense + 3pt spacing + is a really nice fit in this games, already ideally he would be a few FGAs lower

I thought you were referring to another player who I believe hasn't been taken yet.

Is he your point guard?

I’m concerned about the fit between him and Kobe.

I strongly considered him, but in the end I decided I didn't want to have him "competing" with Penny as the main ballhandler. With a lower-usage PG I would have been more inclined to have a look at him.

I'm not quite sold that he is worth 18 fga. A guy generally has to be a perennially all NBA type guy for me to consider him at that cost. But who knows, perhaps Dipo is on his way there.

Paul Millsap isn’t eligible. Signed with Hawks twice and Nuggets once
