I think Griffin will be in there.
"Thibs called back and wanted more picks," said Jorge Sedano. "And Pat Riley, literally, I was told, called him a mother-bleeper and hung up the phone."

Dwight Howard the most NO DOUBT.

Biedrins, Okafor, Josh Smith, Shaq, Duncan, Rondo, Iguodala...

D12, Biedrins, Okafor, Smith and Shaq increase the MOST because they have <60% AND have high fta.
Anyone else shooting <70% will have their values increased by a fair amount as well.

True, I'd put Griffin in that category as well.

To be honest, I'd have MUCH more confidence drafting LeBron if ft% wasn't a category, despite his competency in that category last year. Does that put him over Chris Paul... I still don't know. He's #2 regardless, with or without ft%.

You'd have to displace assists and/or steals to displace CP3 from the #1 spot.

That said, take away the FT% category, and the difference between Bron/CP3 is miniscule.
