I am the worst this game. Not sure how I have blown this two days in a row, but the guy I was probably going to take is still available. I'll go with Dennis Rodman.

Had to double check some things and map out future picks a bit to make sure but yeah, this is definitely my guy. Pretty shocked to see him slip while similar and imo inferior players are getting snatched up. I'll have to shell out another 5 points for one of his all-nba 3rd seasons but I figured out some point-saving moves for down the road (I hope) so he's definitely worth it here. I want:

Image

Paul George. Another versatile, 2-way stud who can score at a high level, create for himself and others, rebound well (my team has some crazy good rebounding so far) and play stellar defense. Plus he can really shoot the ball which my team definitely needs. He'll fit right in.

I've gotta go with:

Image

Mark Price. His 89-90 season, which is right in the middle of his prime imo, costs but a single point for making over 16 ppg. This was the only eligible year between 89 and 94 where he didn't make an all nba team and I'd argue he wasn't really any worse in 90 than in 89 or 92 or whatever, his team was a little but he was still a great player. This is awesome value here imo, guy can shoot, great distributor/playmaker/floor general, can defend, plus I've never taken him so woot for that too I guess.

lilroddyb selects Terry Porter

I will spend a large chunk of my remaining points and take the clear BPA and add to my crazy length. Give me Penny Hardaway

I instantly regretted not picking a SF last round, so i will go with one here. I will go with one of my favorites Dominique Wilkins.

Not the direction I initially intended, but I'll go with a curve ball here:
