its time for a coach to lead this premier collection of talent. and there is not a man in the world who is capable of handling this group. therefore str8 up derogatory selects stephanie ready to be the first female head coach in NBA history.

Image

Image


but wait, thats not all... str8 up derogatory also has named their top assistant head coach. we felt we need a motivator of men, someone who inspires and will literally "slay dragons". coach ben wade, better know as the dragon slayer for survivor.

Image

sure he is a womens soccer coach, but so what. canibals ate his ****. pat riley never had to deal with that ****.

It's gonna suck having to listen to Dell Curry's boring ass during games. It'll be interesting when, or if, he calls the games versus the Warriors.
Humble yourself.

Great fat:) But I think you will have a bad chemistry of your coaching staff as Coach will definately try to coach Stephanie.

Since amcoolio and I have 1 pick each, and different selections, I'm jumping ahead and selecting Josh Shipp from UCLA as my undrafted rookie.


My head is still hurting from the Paulus selection. I'm in Australia and still want to kick the **** out of him...

Well, I will for a week tonight (and will be offline), so if everyone is cool with that and nobody plans to shuffle their roster to re-open already taken spot, I would like to skip the rest of us and pick my last man. So?

Gutless, all of you.

That's right, I'll do it. I'll stand behind the product I created.

For my last selction, I choose as the coach of my team...........................ME!!

If Top Bob can name a team after himself, I can beat him.

My team will be called the "Slamcats", I will be owner, GM, head coach, chief scout, mascot and I might even play a little PF at times.

OK. I'm moving Dirk Nowitzki from knucklehead category to 7foot+ category. And then I'm filling up my last empty category, the knucklehead category, with someone who is knucklead for shoving Emeka.

Welcome Elton Brand, you like being picked don't you.

I planned this from early rounds as soon as I realized nobody has the way to pick him nor any team can make a free spot for him (unless I missed something). So there was no need to rush this in sooner rounds. I felt like I needed another big man and I didn't want to lose tempo by competing for 7footers when there was others holes to fill.

I think this is a fairly obvious choice, a guy I've had on my radar pretty much since this draft started. I really can't believe he's fallen this far, and I think he's the difference-maker, the coach-on-the-floor, and the deadeye shooter (even from 4-point land) that I need out of the PF spot.

This is also probably worth your time:

^The At-At is one of my favorite basketball related images of all time. I prefer this thriller one to the one in the link though, but to each his own.

Fantastic pick.
