This draft is shaping up nicely. Only 3 and D players around LeBron/Nash and by far the best bench in the game. Top end talent may be a bit lower but having two of the greatest 10 offensive players ever should help as well as elite spacing.

Decided Kidd was really the only PG left that was worth doing that for, and that I might not be able to get him if I waited.

Everyone is going to feel great about their team in this game. It's a deep player pool with only 10 participants.

Pick coming soon.

Bringing Davis off the bench seems unnecessary. I think Nash, Lebron and Davis at PG-SF-PF works fine. Or you could just start Davis at C if you’re committed to the smaller style.

Ugh. I just saw I was quoted and posted. I assumed the clock had run out on Snell.

Why did snake go after me in round 1, but isn’t in any other round.

Ardeee said he was putting snake in 4th. I’m the third pick

Snake picks 5th, Snell picks 4th. Snell's time expired in the first round, hence why Snake technically picked before Snell.

On another note, is Jon up?

I ended up in the 5th slot because by the time the decision was made and I was officially placed into the game Snell's time had run out.

That's why.

Yeah, this team is going to get out in transition a lot. So many thoroughbred athletes, and then Steph causing panic as a trail man. :D

Yep, again, everyone is gonna feel really really good about their team.

It's what happens when you have a deep pool and only 10 players.

Toying with the idea of using older Dallas Kidd and pocketing those extra 7 FGA to get something nice for myself. Not sure anything out there is worth it though.

I almost took him over Marcus Smart and I was going to post in this thread about how everyone was forgetting about Iggy...but he took up the teams I needed for my last picks.
