Didn’t have rookie Dan Majerle (at 8 FGA and without a 3 point shot) on my bingo card.

Wouldn't normally go McHale there, but I couldn't be bothered trying to build a 2010s team with 80s players. :lol:

I gambled that I could take Derrick White in round 2 and still grab a pair of 80s stars on the 3/4 swing.

The run on role players didn’t start as early as I’d hoped but I still landed KJ and Marques.

We’ll see I suppose.

If I had not chuncked that Majerle pick, Porter would have been a nice SG for me.


Its going to take some juggling to come back from that bang job I gave myself.

I have 88 or 89 Porter over equal to or over Harper personally.

I also almost took him in round 3 and round 4.

KJ's 20/12 on 60% TS was wild value at 13.9 FGA though.

There's a certain PG available on the board who's in the conversation for best player to never make the all-star/all-NBA teams. If he were playing in the East, I think he would have been ineligible for this draft. Part of me wanted to miss out on Porter and draft his guy which is why I reached for Caruso in round 4.

I was going to take him about 5 different times now but decided to pass
