Jokic is gonna be GOOD. For March/April last season he averaged almost 11/10/4 on great efficiency, along with close to 1stl and 1bl per game.

And he's only 21. Pretty good start for a young fella.

The top 2 in my big board are still hanging in there.. probably because they are a little out of left field.

Gotta recognize young potential :wink:

Green, Giannis, Gordon I need one more player with a 'G' name so I can call my team '4G Service'

You can have Goran Giricek if he falls!

You are always near the top of the standings, so I don't doubt you. I know he has value, it's just that from the Avg Draft Pos rankings that I've seen, he has been a good bit lower than where you took him. I like the boldness though.

I really wanted Reggie, but liked Demarcus better than Drummond due to better Free Throw percentage, assists etc.

It's a good thing that you got DeAndre Jordan then.

Ya, I probably shoulda taken Drummond as he helped me win all but 2 weeks last year in the Pistons board league along with Tobias. I didn't intend to take Jordan, but after I couldn't get Millsap and wanting another big, I had to settle.

That's one of the problems of drafting at the end of snake drafts (especially in 14 team snake drafts). You end up reaching with one of your picks to ensure you get who you wanted.

BMP gon' prove me wrong!

I was just messin' with ya. I have no issues with DeAndre. I had him the last 2 years in a row and I finished 1st and 2nd. Took him in Round 2 both years. You got him in Round 4. Can't complain about that!

I never had a chance to get Serge before, so when I finally did AND he's with the Magic... I said to myself, "Let's have a fun year!"

I can understand that as the draft gets deeper, but in the beginning you gotta grab the top shelf talent! If he produces top shelf, you did the right thing though. Everyone has their own strategies and I love that.

AG making it rain in practice. I'm hoping for big things from him this year. And as you all cheer him on watching games, you'll inadvertently be cheering for my fantasy squad. Psych!

Yeah, bet you saw that vine and it made you rush to pick him! :nod:

He looks smooth! Damn, I will be inadvertently cheering for you... but just to return the favor you can think of me every time you see this guy wreak havoc.

I thought the value for Gasol was good. It's just that 2 of the last 3 years he didn't finish the season. Definitely looks like a strong team though.

Looking to trade up if anyone is open to that.

HoraceGrant · Post #97 » by **HoraceGrant** » Tue Oct 4, 2016 2:15 am

Yeah, I'll swap next 2 picks with you Skin.

A couple of #HYPE videos on the Magic players taken in the draft already. The Official Magic Youtube channel didn't make one for Ibaka (for obvious reasons; no Ibaka footage in a Magic jersey yet).

Watch on YouTube

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME MAGIC BASKETBALL?

If you're evaluating my picks based on ADP, then be ready for some real head scratchers! :lol:
