Sorry, literally just posted. If you want the guy I took (Lamar Odom) just let me know and I'll change.

It's cool. Odom was one of the players I was considering but there are about 100 guys all about the exact same in quality at this point.

Damn, was hoping to land Dennis Johnson under the radar. Oh well.

It was a whim pick but I'm liking it more the more I look at it. Johnsons numbers shoot up drastically in the playoffs every year. And all the teams he's been on just can't stop winning.

You are up.

I might regret taking Iguodala. There were a couple high impact guys left including Hardaway that made it tough. I just got worried about finding cheap options late in this one.

Nice pick KN. Even with Kidd, I had my eye on Hardaway. I feel like that pairing would work to some extent.

Nearly went Barry over Marion, but I like the versatility that Shawn brings. I still need to hit on a few more picks but I like how my team is shaping up so far.

I might regret the Christie pick. Seemed like there weren't many guys with that skill set though, and he was a pretty critical ingredient on those Webber lead Kings teams that nearly won it all.

It killed my hope that he'd last back to me. I feel like good low FGA guys are going to be harder to find in this draft which is why I went Iguodala. We'll see if that ends up being right call.

I've updated the rules. If they played at least half their games for the pacific division team, they are eligible. For example, if the player played 80 games in the season, at least 40 of them must be for one of the eligible teams.

Was really hoping to land Joe Johnson. 48% from 3 in '05 is awesome and his size make him a very dangerous option
