Having just been there, there are a couple of gems or at least acceptable players hidden there in the Nets at least. Some of them are regulars drafted in other teams' jerseys.

I swear I followed these games closer when I was working. :-?
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

I can't believe Rodman dropped. Pretty cheap, can't think of another Pistons player I want more, and enables me to trot out Iggy/Rodman/Robinson when I want INSANE defense.

Detroit isn't a category though...

Oh ****.

I was confusing this with the Derrick Rose draft :banghead: :banghead:

And I do already have a DPoY in Robinson. Gonna have to re-pick I suppose.

No two ways about it, you have to repick. Rodman isn't a valid pick for you.

He already used that on Robinson who doesn't fit any other category.

So please repick. He's also eligible for category 2 but you don't have a way to fit him with the Joe Harris pick
