Didn't leave options for my second round


Why? Leave a 5 player list for me, you pick before me I can’t take any of them. Seems like you’re holding up the draft for no reason…..

I didn't really have time to think through a proper list. I'm on a different timezone, the only reason I could pick Hakeem was that I woke up in 2am to soothe my baby boy. I was on the phone for less than 1 minute.

We really need to stop policing one another when it comes to the time one takes to make a post. Follow the clock as written. That's it. Nobody should presume to know what's going on in someone else's life.

That's the combo I was hoping for when I landed at 10th. I figured D-Rob might go earlier though.

So the plan is to help out the folks at the top of the order even more? :lol:

up buddy

Having Kareem fall to the 18th pick seems like an error.

I just realized that and am re-doing the post.

I could have sworn he had a game in 1990, weird.

Its really weird just how efficiently Barkley scored in 1989-90.
Being a monster in both size and athleticism will do that I guess.

If only there were a way to check that before assuming a team that needed a center took Bruce Bowen over him. :lol:

Barkley always slides in these but he was a great pick.

Oh yeah, I thought it was weird. lolol

And keeping with a showtime lakers vibe...Barkley fills the rim attacking PF role very nicely.

I didnt think he would fall, but I was actually adding up FGA to find a way to make McGrady fit on the roster.

The bottom was the place to be in this one. :lol:

Probably should have taken Moses but I didn’t wanna.

Moses just isn't my style really. Personal preference is a big part of this for me. A great player in his own right but doesn't have the skills I normally go for.

Bird over MJ might have been the right choice for Roddy here, because Larry and Snake had to skip Allen due to a so so fit with Magic and MJ.

We'll need to see the final teams though.
