Horford was great value here.

Man, it is crazy how far Melo slid. Hard to say he should have been picked much higher though then this. Without question, LJ will give Melo a better chance to win then the Knicks though

LJ doing LJ things...

I knew he wasn't going to pass up that value in Melo, but was rooting for him to fall, or for Fury to trade up, to pair him with Marc Gasol.

In a win-now build, getting a "go-to" closer in Melo at 37 is huge. Good job LJ, but now you have the daunting task of building a roster that he can win with, and one that can win with him.

Wait someone actually drafted Garbelo? Hahahaha, I was trying to troll someone into drafting him for about 20 picks now.

I was all set to take him at 24. Was only considering Hayward besides him. For all his faults, I'll still take him as my top option in a playoff series over the majority of the players taken in the first round. In my opinion, it's very hard to build a championship team without a go to guy. Lock one of those down, and then figure out the rest later. At least that's usually how I view it.

Exactly and I look forward to trying.

22, 6, 3 with all his stats trending upward over the past 10 games; that's a great value. Just gotta make sure you put quality defenders into the mix which is doable with those upcoming selections.

Yeah he is very good value at that spot, I was also considering El Gordo + Melo + Lowry at 24. In the end I thought Lowry would be the best partner for PG13 though.

Love the value of DJ right there, I wanted to see him paired with Kristaps tbh.

LJ has a really good chance to put a winner around Melo with a few more top 100 picks. He's very hard to build around so it will be interesting to see what direction you go with.

Do you like Jabari?

Mecca · Post #757 » by **Mecca** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 2:45 pm

Jabari Parker available for an upcoming pick and some type of swap in a later round. 21 PPG 50% from field, .42% from 3

Jabari was a Booker type of reach wasn't even in my top 75... would stay away... :nod:

Gm remourse at its finest. .putting up big numbers on a terrible team, how can you be .500 in the east..

At least I didn't draft a role player with my first pick LOL

The Bucks are right at .500 actually and Jabari is playing like a damn all-star. He's shooting the 3 at a higher % than Steph Curry and scoring at an efficient 50% from the floor. I just have someone else I like with Kemba and want to grab. Again your BBIQ isn't on my level so we can't have this talk
