A little unconventional but it'll work... Gary Payton

Was counting on Moses and Grant Hill to drop.

Billups - George - Grant Hill - Kawhi - Moses

It was a risky strategy which backfired spectacularly. :( Don't think I can compete anymore. Oh well. Let's go Alex Caruso.

Center who can get out of the way and push back against the big centers in this draft and lets AD play free safety.

Brook Lopez


And a versatile forward who can defend 2-4 letting luka hide while moving offball and making 3pters.

Wanted to use all my clock in case GM shows up, but it's late at night where I am and I wanna go to sleep. No big deal anyway. We are in the later rounds of the draft.
