Agreed. Risk/reward pick considering the judging for this is going to be starting early in this season.

well, he's a top 5 PG when healthy and he is presumed to be healthy.
A lot of points flew off the board and I watched my pick(s) taken one and two spots before me respectively, so I figured now was as good a time as any. :dontknow:

OMG so sick, Butler and Bynum are the two steals of the draft thus far. I can't believe Caron Butler seriously slipped so damn far.

Cc: A Bynum
PF: D Nowitzki
SF: C Butler
SG:
PG:

So, I already have best front court locked up. Good to know.

Bynum a steal? You're getting delusional in your years, Teds.

Yeah, Bynum is a major risk.

Just ask me, I had him on my fantasy team. :( Butler dropped like a rock, though.

I actually anticipated Butler dropping. I really wasn't planning to pick Durant, but the next guys off the clock weren't really ideal to build around either. Butler's always a good pick though. Solid at near everything, and his constant injuries aren't taken into account in this game.

Bynum though: for this year, I'd take about four-six Cs left on the board over him for various reason.

I was definitely surprised Butler dropped that far. Too many folks looking for specific things that an all round guy like him got left behind.

u got my support in your bynum draft teddy kgb. so when you matchup, you can count on me to say, "wow, bynum at center is awesome". if u matchup with me, this post and all posts quoting me will be edited.

Just try editing my post. You'll be molesting woodland animals in all future posts on the Games board.
