He can make his pick when he logs on. If we don't hear anything from him in a few days, then we'll just go with 10 people. Hopefully he makes it soon.


what if he's just been holed up in a library somewhere research his picks for the last 5 days? Going through microforms of old newspaper sports pages from like 1964.

I heard he was stuck in front of public toilet still trying to decide which one he is allowed into!

I will take 2007-2008 Kobe Bryant for my Stone Hands pick. In that year Kobe averaged 28.3/6.3/5.4, was named NBA MVP, and averaged an astonishing 30 ppg in the playoffs all the way to the Finals before falling to the Celtics.

"________ was jacked as f*** and he didn't f*** with no lames" - Reddit user BuurDown

David Robinson, 1993-94, Southpaw

I'm taking the guy with shoulders sculpted from stone by Michaelangelo. A man with a beautiful flat top and fluffy mustache. A freak athlete that could rim run, protect the paint, and step out and hit a jumper while beating his man off the dribble.

I get it, the Olajuwon WCFs. I know. But that's not this year. This is the year where his Win Share Total reached 20. Only Jordan and LeBron had better years that could be drafted than Robinson.

He averaged a cool 29.8/10.7/4.8/3.3/1.7 and also shot 34.5% from three on a small sample size. It's the same year he dropped 72 In a game and had a quadruple double. He's Dwight Howard if Dwight Howard had a post game, took 4000 gallons of horse steroids and didn't fondle 16 year old girls in hotel rooms in his practice jersey.

I like a guy down low that can alter shots in the paint and switch on defense. Just a freak defender is what I like about my center. But the offensive skills are a bonus. Hopefully I can surround this guy with more talent than SAS did in his early years so he can flourish even more.

Hes one of the most underrated players in the history of the league. And all because of a handful of games. I'll take him and just let him wreak havoc.

Sorry for the delay. I saw Coolios wonderful pick while I was in the pisser at a work lunch. Didn't have time to post mine.

Also this draft has worked out how I wanted so far for the team I wanted to build. But now I've got to wait four more picks to hopefully pick the guy I'm really desperatly wanting and thought I could get back to back.

I beg of you. Please don't take my guy!

It was a pipe dream thinking I could land Robinson to pair with Magic on the fast break.

btw is USADA going to come into play here? Because I would like to file a complaint against ESAL's team in some manner.

You can join if you don't snipe our picks!!! If not then we need compensation of the highest order.
