Already 32 players selected, and there are still a few bonafide MVP caliber players capable of carrying a team by themselves, available - there's at least five such players (all of the guys I have in mind, are much better players than some guys who have already been selected).

Q, you're missing Spaceman's second pick in the OP of the Draft thread. Just wanted to point it to avoid any mis-drafts later on, in case a GM forgets and drafts Davis.

Aww man, I think this is the first round I've been really worried one of the guys I want most won't be there when I pick. Fingers crossed!

I still can't believe 2001 Kwame Brown, 2009 Andrew Morrison and 2008 Brian Scalabrine are still on the board and it's pick 33

My next pick: 94 Reggie Miller

Image

With lebron leading my team as an elite penetrate and dish floor general, why not pair him with one of the best off the ball moving volume 3PT shooters ever? Considering the damage reggie was able to do in his prime without a playmaker even close to lebron, it’s scary to think about the possibilities. For one, he’s getting more open shots, period. Transition 3s for reggie would be plentiful as well with lebron running the break, capitalizing on his elite endurance.

Reggie’s constant movement in the half court keeps the defense on their toes and spreads the floor for lebron to operate more freely. He also has a(n annoyingly) high bball IQ, moved the ball well and was an adequate team defender with his length and quickness. And as we all know, he had a flair for the dramatic, but backed it up with his play when it mattered most. My inside outside gameplan with an emphasis on above average pace is starting to come to form after the first 3 picks. Reggie continues the trend of this hyper efficient roster at 63.6% TS.

The Long Beach Longshoremen, with their 3rd pick have selected:

ZO!

A 2-way big man with incredible motor, intelligence, and intensity who could truly fits as remarkably close to the ideal 5 regardless of the era.

Clyde took Reggie? Gah! His scoring in low FGAs is unmatched with Manu off the boards.

I'm taking Alonzo's friend and college teammate...

1993-94 Mutombo is my third selection. My first low FGA pick, only 7.8 FGA.

Now I have the sharpest elbows frontcourt in the country. :D

Another nice pick by Doctor MJ. Zo is one of my favorite players of all-time, I also like Bird and West a lot, so if there's any team I woud like to see winning this tournament, other than my own, it's Doc's.

If Clyde Frazier, Eballa, Orlando Till, theonlyclutch or any of the other guys who care a lot about FGA want to compare notes, I've compiled a list of some available players who had really good seasons with low FGA.

I need a good PG without knowing what my next 5 picks will be, so I'm taking:

Chauncey Billups (2008) 11.2 FGA

Image

Does everything well on both sides of the ball and fits well with damn near everyone and every team concept, efficient as all hell (127 ORTG, 61.9% TS) and makes for a very potent backcourt pairing with Manu

Sorry Timmay! I know that feeling well. For some reason so far, the guys I want are falling to me this time.
