Kawhi and Paul were both top choices...

Just to be clear, Q, are we going by reverse draft order in the 2nd round?

Yes, now that lilroddyb made his first two picks, everything is getting back to normal (you are going back to your normal position, which is #6, so there are still 8 guys making their selections before you in this round - the fact that you had #10 pick in the first round was because you were late with your first pick, it's not going to be a standard thing for you - unless you plan on being late every time, that is, but I don't expect you to do so :wink:

).

For order, look at the pic in the Draft Thread OP.

This pick was not easy. I could've went with fit or BPA, and I had to take the FGAs into account for the later rounds. With my next pick like 25 picks away I decided to take someone that can lead my offense to all time greatness without me picking up a high volume scorer (I've given up on my dream leading scorer for now). With that said Steve Nash 05 (11.4 FGA) is my pick.

There's 2 other guys I really want bad but I'm basically screwed on getting them unfortunately so I had to take the only one of the guys I wanted that won MVP or even came close.

Did we establish a games played limit??

It's the gap between picks. I'm totally expecting everyone I want to be gone by the next time I pick and if I had to guess Spacemen is going to grab one of them and Doc MJ is taking the other.

Nice grab with Nash though, him and Walton make a lot of offense even without a lot of shots

From Leeds, Alabama...

When we did the original thread it was 50 games but IDK that's a good question.

Says the man who got Walton and Nash...

I'm so jealous of your team it hurts. :noway:

You have zero room to complain with a starting two of Nash and Walton. Your O is gonna be 125+ guaranteed. Well, that probably won't mean as much in this league, everyone is likely to push 115 at the least. The mid-picks are probably the best. The back to back is nice at the end, but I think mid is best.

Yeah but now I need a defender at SG and I'm still trying to get 5 great passers in my starting lineup (I'm going to struggle with the passing PF).

So much firepower left on the board, but I went with Barkley. Thought of him pretty early - in his near-MVP '90 season in Philly he averaged 25/12/4 on 60% shooting and under 15 fga/game. With him and Russell I have two great frontcourt passers who dominate the glass, and have some flexibility for future picks I hope.

So far I like all the 2-man combos we've seen so far, good fits.

I have a guy who might fit the bill but i'm not gonna say because I want him lol.

Actually I just thought of 2 other guys that kind of fit the bill

Yeah Barkley's FTR is so insane it's hard not to like him in this scenario. That peak is pretty insane at under 15 fga

Gonna be impossible to run fast breaks against your team with that front court.

Wow

KD/KG is freakin SCARY.

Every combo so far is really really solid

E-Balla · Post #200 » by **E-Balla** » Mon May 2, 2016 10:54 pm

There's a lot of big combos here. Looks like I'll have the only big 3 though.
