Nice pick.



Yeah he was going to be my last pick if available but after seeing the Jazz game I knew he would climb.

Also i think knowing Chandler is there to would make Len play more aggressive in both ends knowing he has 20-22 minutes to do his job... Against other team's bench. Health is the question mark.

I was hoping David Lee or Julius Randle would fall to me. Sigh.

I will reluctantly take Wilson Chandler with my pick. I hope he starts or at least plays 30 mins a game.

My fall back on centers was to try and get Tyson Chandler AND Alex Len, because I knew if one was out, the other would be better, and I knew if I played them both if it came to that, I would likely get at least 3 blocks a night between them, and likely more fairly often. It would be rare to have bad games from both and you are covered for injuries.

I think Wilson Chandler is solid there. The other two you mention are huge question marks. Chandler should be a solid contributor no matter what (unless he is injured).

Hey sorry guys, didn't realize Safety Pickle made his pick. I'll take Ben McLemore. Gimme a second to make my next pick.

And I guess I'll take Marcus Morris. I wanted Harrison Barnes, but I think the upside for both Barnes and Morris are about the same. Barnes ceiling is limited on his squad where I feel Morris has a little more freedom in Detroit.

I chose Morris and McLemore because they aren't injury prone and might need them early until Wes Mathews come into full form. McLemore is also looking for a contract extension I believe so I hope he blossoms this year.

It's not an exciting pick and I hope Warren takes his job but I'll take pj tucker.
