Idk who started it but it was a bad idea. It should be used sparingly but everyone seems to use it now. I haven’t and I won’t ever do that.

Apart from picks 2-10, my predicted order for this draft has been miles off. :lol:

Curious to know if we had the same "11 legit first options". Out of the first picks, for me it excluded Iverson, Pierce and Manu, but included McGrady.

T-Mac and Dwight were the other two I had in mind.

I will give this one a whirl since the deadball era is one of my favorite era's.

In!

No idea what I’m doing with my next pick.

This shallow pool is really shifting the meta.

I’m sure JP hated seeing Rasheed taken right before his pick. I strongly considered taking Rasheed with my second pick. Love 2000 EJ in this pool though.

Philosophical question - is the definition of a shallow pool "a pool where there are many legit guys who are rarely picked"?

Alonzo Mourning really fell too much for this pool

Seriously. He had a strong argument to go around the end of the first round.

I projected Zo going before my 2nd pick.

I likely would have taken Kobe or Dirk had I known the Zo pair was on the table.

Still not unhappy with Shaq, who I believe is the second best player in this pool. But yeah.
