Should I? I should. No but there are better players at this spot. But... Yes. Nope. Yes. NO. YES. I CAN'T RESIST THE TEMPTATION.

It's a homer pick.

Shoot for the stars. I'll take Al Horford and his torn pecs. Now the rest of the draft has to be perfect in case he goes down again.

Theres no one else I felt was reasonable here.

DRK and I are working on a potential swap of picks - so hopefully he's online and we can keep this thing going...

I hate you for making the trade, now he's going to steal my player. I turned him down as i know exactly who he is targeting and it so happens to be the same guy i am. So you will be receiving no more emails from me my friend! :evil:

Always cautious when I trade with DRK... His trade sweeteners usually involve me sending a fourth of my team :lol:

But seriously (DRK) I felt like the chance to draft Horford in the 2nd round was too good to pass up, regardless of his injury.

DRK · Post #68 » by **DRK** » Tue Sep 23, 2014 8:14 am

It was a good pick (Horford) if it pans out. I wouldnt have touched him but if it works out for you, all good!

And mate, I'm Asian. Negotiating is in my blood!

Trade announcement:

I have traded my 2nd, 3rd and 5th rounders for DRK's 2nd, 3rd and 5th rounders.

Have updated the draft order and DRK selects PAUL MILLSAP...

Yep! There it is. Paul was the other player I was thinking about. Solid pick with much better durability than my guy xD

DRK · Post #71 » by **DRK** » Tue Sep 23, 2014 9:09 am

That took about 20 different Pms to about 5 different guys, but I got my man.

He should have an awesome year this season. Contributes in every catergory, and awesome to pair with KD.

Pleasure doing business TASTIC

ha, my bad bro - fixed now.

Millsap was who I had as best on the board, but pretty happy about the back-to-backs and also moving up a bit later.

Will see who's there, hope I get my guy with one of these next two or it might blow up in my face!!

I'll make my pick in the morning, hopefully CK will have picked by then.

Regarding KopLegend picking Dragic so early-

It's completely understandable from a fan perspective why you would want to draft him. Last year, I didn't have such great results but since I had one of my favourites (Westbook) I was still really invested in my team.

I really*10^100 wanted to draft him this year, though I doubt he'd have lasted to my 3rd pick. I suspect one of the top 3 would have scooped him up 3rd round.

I'll take Nico Batum.

Yup my thoughts exactly. Also this sounds bad but drafting Dragic makes me more invested in the Suns as well. I'm not a local guy nor do i have any particular ties to the Suns so my enthusiasm wavers at times and rooting for Dragic will definitely encourage me to watch more games.

Ok after much deliberation I think I have to take Kawhi Leonard, purely because after him there aren't too many SFs for a while.

I totally had someone else in mind, but in the 11th hour had a change of heart.

I couldnt let him slide anymore. He might not be an exciting name on an exciting team, but he gets them stats boy!
