Had my worst draft yet 

Post#1 » by Carlton Banksy » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:25 pm

My first 2 drafts I've been very pleased with my teams, but this time not so much. I'm sorely lacking in assists, rebounds & blocks. It's a shame my first crappy draft had to be in a RealGM league.

16 team, h2h, standard 9 cats. Thoughts & suggestions?

1. (8) Dirk Nowitzki PF
2. (25) Vince Carter SG,SF
3. (40) Kevin Durant SG,SF
4. (57) Brad Miller C
5. (72) Jamal Crawford PG,SG
6. (89) Manu Ginobili SG
7. (104) Al Thornton SF,PF
8. (121) Boris Diaw PF,C
9. (136) Tyrus Thomas SF,PF
10. (153) Stephon Marbury PG
11. (168) Nate Robinson PG,SG
12. (185) Nazr Mohammed C
13. (200) Nick Young SG,SF

Clearly I have Vince Carter ranked well higher than most people do, since I've ended up with him in the second or third round of all 3 of my drafts so far.

Not a fan of some of the guys you took, but still decent for a 16 team league.

You desperately need an upgrade at PG unless your banking on Marbury reviving his career under D'Antoni or getting traded to GState.

I'd look to move one of your SG's for a PG, check if your league has any VC or KD homers or even Manu when he gets closer to returning.

problem is that carter and durant were picked too high. should have picked a quality pg in one of those rounds instead.

i dont think you can salvage both assists AND rebounds/blocks--you can either improve one or the other. you definitely shouldn't have chosen three knick guards, that's for sure.
