May not be here for my next pick in which case someone give me BPA. I'll try to be on tonight though.

Wilkes is not eligible to be drafted. He plays for the Warriors.

IDK, but we're coming up on 36 hours since the last legitimate pick and we either need to autopick or skip.

Yeah.

But which? Is there a player similar to Wilkes we can draft for him?

Fine, I'll do it.

I flipped and it came up Billy.

BI selects Billy Knight.

Turkish, if you're reading this, go ahead and make your pick.

Hi, just got back from a romantic weekend. If the GM ahead of you misses the 4 hour limit, go ahead and pick . . . no picking for another player. Oh, and no 5th round, I thought the 4th would be finished when I got back and we haven't even started it.

Phil Chenier.

All-nba second team, devastating playoff performer in selected season, among the leaders in steals per game, and a legitimate second option on a top level contending team in the selected season.

Gimme Elmore Smith. 11/11 and 3 blocks in under 32 minutes of play. We actually had a tough time with this decision, whether to forgo a center and go for another guard, but we trust in the ability of Butch Beard and other Warriors guards to take the remaining spot minutes in the backcourt. Elmore will provide another big with size and shot-blocking ability adding to the overall defense of the Warriors. We like what George Johnson does, but we felt we needed another player capable of playing bigger minutes. He and Ray will provide two nice compliments in the front-court next to the Big E.

The Kentucky Colonels take another veteran scorer with All-Defense team credentials in Dick Van Arsdale.

He looks like a darker, skinner, Paul Pierce.

We're going to take arguably the best shooter in this game and one of the best ever - Downtown Freddie Brown - to complete our guard rotation.
