What the **** did yall do to me to ruin my back to back picks and put a guy literally right in front of me to take every pick I have wanted? Why have y'all forsaken me?

I do actually feel a little bad. Prime Dirk is a perfect fit with Curry and Robinson.

Well Rich Cho could learn a thing or two about back up plans from me with this draft...

Well I need a wing guy that can shoot the rock and take pressure off Curry with some of the ball handling. I need a leader after the turmoil I have gone through. I need another guy that has won a championship. I need a guy that can defend multiple positions. I need a guy that grows a **** beard. I need a guy who can take knife wounds like Wolverine.

Paul Pierce, 01-02, The James Gatz Steals all my **** players category (Stop Shooting!)

He averaged 26/7/3/2/1. He also shot 40% from three on over 6 attempts a game.

He can help spread the floor with Curry. He is tough as nails. He is a leader(though maybe not this year), which I don't really have right now even though I have champions and talented guys. He also led a team outside of him and Antoine Walker to the ECF.

Plan C guys!!!!! HERE WE GO!!!!

Pierce is a good call, like that fit.

Gatz with Shaq, Durant, and Dirk. They don't suck.

I had a hard time deciding between Dirk, Duncan and Garnett to pair with Kobe, but I went with Duncan because of the rookie category. If Dirk had dropped to me I would have taken him and use him as my 6th man

NOOOO! you ruined one of the better All NBA possibilities, Bill Walton from 76-77 and one of the best championship bench possibilities Bill Walton from 85-86. He was going to be perfect as my back up center.

With my All-NBA pick I will go with 1991-1992 John Stockton.

Dream Team. All Star. All NBA 2nd Team. All Defense 2nd Team. 15.8 ppg, 13.7 apg, 3.0 spg, 50/40/84 %.

Most people forget John Stockton was a tenacious defender as well as the best passer in NBA history. How the heck were other PG's besides Magic taken before John in this draft? Who knows, but I'll take the rewards.

John will absolutely love playing with Duncan, and Kobe will love the secondary playmaker. Quite a trio considering my draft slot.

PG: John Stockton (1992; Dream Team, 2nd team all NBA, 2nd team all Defense, 15.8 ppg, 13.7 apg, 3.0 spg, 50/40/84 %)
SG: Kobe Bryant (2008; NBA MVP, 1st team all NBA, 1st team all Defense, 28.3 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 5.4 apg, 1.8 spg)
SF:
PF:
C: Tim Duncan (1998; All-Star, 1st team all NBA, 2nd team all Defense, Rookie of the Year, 21.1 ppg, 11.9 rpg, 2.5 bpg, 2.9 apg, 55% FG)

Stockton is gonna hate playing with Kobe

Kobe just doing isos at the top of the key while poor John stand in the shame corner waiting for a pass.

The Jazz's biggest problem was they didn't have a closer. Malone was a choker. Kobe can be that closer. :wink:

I have literally zero idea who I'm going to pick, no idea how I'm going to decide between my options.

Flip Murray · Post #400 » by **Flip Murray** » Tue Jul 26, 2016 4:57 am

stuck between 3 players. Don't love any of my options
