Gotta say I like the one-two PG punch Fran just took. Knight only stands to get better, and Collison is apparently in a "favorable situation". I was burned by Collison last season, so I just couldn't take him, but I think he'll get better in Dallas.

Yup, glad I grabbed a PG with my last pick. They are getting pretty scarce now.

True. Still a hand full of PGs worth picking at this point left, but they're going fast.

Me too. I saw this coming that's why I picked Nelson. Even if I was picking only 12 picks later.

Not real sold on Knight.

Really like the Hayward pick though. Almost took him with my last pick, but liked Klay better, 1) because his dad is a Laker, and 2) because he doesn't play for the Jazz.

Yeah, good situation for Collison, but he'll have to deliver. I did think about him with my last pick but I think Mayo is in a better position to do well in Dallas.

Hmmm. Not sure why I didn't realize that Klay's dad was Mychal.

Lol.

Thanks for taking the only guy I was excited about.

This pick is available. Hoping to pick within the next 30 minutes.

Can someone please update my picks on the first page of the draft thread? They have not been updated since my last 2 trades.

119, 153, 171, 180, 199, 202, 221, 239, 279

Thanks!

Sorry about the wait, I got stuck in a meeting.

Honestly, it's not a glamorous pick, but there are 2 things going for me: 1) West is fairly consistent, you know what you'll get, and 2) I just moved to Indiana, so my kids will be excited that I took someone they'll see quite a bit of.

I was wondering when West was going to go. I think he'll end up being a value pick at that spot. Especially if your team is built for the efficiency stats.

I would guess West will have a better year than that glamorous pick you wanted.

Was going that route until I realized Id have a backcourt of Barney and Thomas the Tank Engine.

Barney would be horrible on D.

He's faster than Felton though

I didn't think there was much of a chance but really hoping he'd slip through the cracks and fall to me at 120.

Well, does layups count? My FG% honestly is in disarray, but I'm hoping West will at least keep me from losing to EVERY team on FG%.

You can have him with the 120th if you'd like, throw in another pick and he could be yours.

Part of the reason I traded up to 83 was because I thought Hickson had a good chance of being available where I traded down in the 160's...I had him around 130 on my board. So much for that plan...

I felt David West was the no brainer pick for awhile, but he tends to be that boring pick that is just no fun taking.

Who you trying to fool? YOu aren't targeting anyone not wearing a T-Wolves jersey.

My list got picked one after another. Once curry breaks his ankle, Jarrett should see some decent mins. I was really hoping to get Turner but oh well.
