Wow, 2 Rookies in a row for me. I must seriously be losing it...

Pick 143 is available, btw.

Richardson. Meh. Probably a flop, but a good potential value pick at this point in the draft.

felling a bit stupid for not trading down to get biyomo after i lost to bww tristan i should trade down ASAP I didn´t try to offer a non brain trade 141 + 153 + 220 for biyomo + 190 +193 and got a not curtis got greedy and wanted 141 + 153 for biyomo + 193. I almost acepted but looked @ his team and with varejao and dh did he really got to get greedy he should accept like a bandit and pick hedo perfect fit for him imo ast rebs pts bad %FT 3pts well lets see what happend 153 here i go

thoughts about the deal ? did i offer 2 much ? would you accept it ? was I on drugs to refuse only cutting 190 - 220 jump ? thoughts

I nearly took Biyombo TWICE (once at 136, once at 138), but I couldn't get myself to do it. Biyombo was wildly inconsistent last year. I think you can count on a sure set of blocks, but besides that, I worry about him. I know everyone is dubbing him as a break-out candidate, but I think he's the annual "over-hyped" player we all get excited about before the season.

Sadly though, I wish I would have drafted him at 136 like I was planning on. I'd have a very valuable trade piece.

Trading down is painful. Not only do I have to wait an extra 25 picks to select, I have to do so through the slowest weekend of picks on record. Then I have to watch as player after player I expected to go lower gets snapped up.

I was figuring the mid 150s were going to be a sweet spot, but, you folks are amazing drafters.

no way i don´t actually i follow this kid normally i follow 3-5 rookies i think they can be top 20 in 3-4 years. when i see this kid improvement last year i was :o he made 7 blk in 2 games and 6 blk in 1 game and so on. last season, his 1st he made 115 blk and this year he have MKG, hell yeah on his bday ( two weeks ago he was training ) while other idiots are party or whatever. One more thing summer league doesn´t mean nothing right ? expect for one thing FT% improvement and even reaching 60% was way better than last year 45% and his move on the line with the hand was almost perfect notice some work on that cat

this year i expect 22mim till ASB with 8pts 7.8rebs 2blk 0.5stl .490%FG .625%FT
After ASB 27min 9pts 9.4rebs 2.5blk 0.8stl 4.80%FG .650%FT

can be wrong but this pick got some value
except on curtis team with lee varejao DH lol since he doesn´t stl enought blk was already a give and his G dont reb that much but whatever lets move on

I actually agree with Fran, to an extent. The funny thing about averages is they don't reflect the ups and downs a player has. So one game maybe two, Biyombo will look like a monster, going for 10, 15, and 3 blocks, but then, he'll put up a 2 point, 8 board, 1 block game that will infuriate whoever has him (in this case Curtis), and may actually cost him the weekly match-up. That's why I dropped him from my roster last year. This year, he's obviously one year wiser (almost...it was a shortened season), so he should do somewhat better, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him frustrate people with his inconsistency. In the end, he'll wind up with probably 8-9 ppg, almost 10 boards, and over 2 blocks, but along the way, the inconsistency is going to drive people crazy.

I'm really interested to see who falls to me at 152. I have lists about 8 players long for each of my next three picks, but no idea if any of them will actually be available. It's tempting to try to trade into position to get players I want, but it somehow feels more fun just to wait and see how good a job you all do of taking my guys.

Of all the guys on my 152 list, Chandler Parsons was the one I was most sure would not make it that far. I'm very surprised he wasn't gone earlier.
