Just loved Thompson and Batum 2/3 length athleticism ball
Moving and athleticism.
Again as a starter in about 30 games he put up over 18/3/3/1 as a 44/38/90 shooter couldn't pass him up for my team around DMC.

Re: Build-a-Team 7.0 Contact Info & Discussion Thread
Farieds a good pick but a bad fit imo. Sessions is a great pick and roll player so he fits well with horford and bargs, while hes improved still not a great shooter and is terrible defensively. With the right sg though he can be a perfect fit.

They have been letting him shoot all day from 3pt in the playoffs....
He's
19% 3pt , yes 19%
Faried can defend 3's just fine.

He will be playing a lot of minutes at the 4 spot too, giving Dirk rest for the playoffs.

Nah, I disagree. Klay is that good! He's as much of a lights-out pure shooter with size at the SG spot that you can ask for. Only reason I figured he'd go 4th round was quite frankly wishful thinking along the lines of other GM's sleeping on him since he played out west as a rookie.
Faried is a beast but I'm not sure if he can effectively start at SF, I'll give you that.
We will have to agree to disagree on Klay. I don't think he is a bad player I think he is actually very good. But mid 3rd to me way to early i would have pegged him as a mid 4.
I like the 41% 3 point shooting and there is no denying he is an elite shooter...the question I woudl have is he good enough in other areas to merrit such a high pick. He struggles off the dribble and isn't a great defender or rebounder or passer. Maybe im wrong but he has a great one dimension (lights out one demension) but i thought it was a bit of a reach

Faried couldn't guard 4s very well because of the size difference. The guy is a monster athlete with good lateral quickness, he can keep up with 3's jsut fine on the defensive end.
Most of his points came from drive to the lanes against the slower 4's, he will be fine with Nowitzki and Pek spreading the floor.
He is working on his jumper this offseason.
Also, our team will be the best rebounding team in the league. 2nd chance opportunities off of Dirk 3's when their PF is out guarding the 3 pt line and Kenneth and Pek will be there to snatch those boards.
Underrated part of Faried's game is his shot blocking as well... Oh the help defense... A beautiful thing it shall be.
So you want faried chasing around 3's all game? not taking a shot just curious on ur thoughts.
I mean right now u are planning to have faried guard the (lebrons, melos, durants, pierces) of the world. IMHO he can't guard them. Plus he will be chasing them around which takes him away from his best asset which is down low snatching rebounds.
I love the player and the talent, i just don't see the fit (offensively and defensively for your team)

They are letting him because he's more effective in te paint. Still doesn't take away his percent during the regular season.
Also..he really can't. Not even a tweener. Dude is a 4.

Right, but my comrads can't just say things without looking at the numbers and the facts. If they have an opinion I hope they back it up with something and not just persona preference.

Please watch Klay Thompson more intently and familiarize yourself with his game if possible next season. Dude is a very underrated passer. He moves the ball very crisply and makes some nifty passes. He's also an adequate rebounder for a SG.
Examine his game-log, paying particular attention to his assists and rebounds

You're right about defensive concerns though.

CBS sports has him listed as a SF, and NBA.com has him as Forward. As of now he is more effective at the 4, but the only reason he's getting so many minutes at the 4 is because the Nuggets don't have other 4's to play. Specially with Chandler being injured.

Re: Build-a-Team 7.0 Contact Info & Discussion Thread
I wanted Klay Thompson. Screw picking too early or whatever. Don't pass people up cause he may be 5 spots too high. You don't have a pick 5 spots from there!

I agree with this post in its entirety except I like the Klay pick. Might be a slight reach but he's probably going to develop into a solid knock-down shooter and you can never have too many of those guys on your roster. Otherwise I totally agree with your post.
people are misconstruing "reach" with a bad pick. Now Klay is a very good shooter and a good player I was just saying in terms of some of the players out there. I would consider Klay more of a mid 4th round pick.
He clearly can help a team no doubt. That is all i was trying to say.

Also to add to this, Sessions only had such a high percentage because he attempted 1.5 threes per game last season.
He doesn't spread the floor at all and the Thunder are completely punishing the Lakers because of it.
19% from 3pt, and 36% from the field, awful. And of course the playoffs have more weight than regular season, if this is what's going to happen when you need him most then.... No thanks
