I'll lock down a killer defensive bigs duo and select Ben Wallace.

Shooting time. If he loves playing off of Curry and Draymond you gotta figure he and Magic will do even more together.

Klay Thompson. Gotta wonder how different this draft would be if the Warriors had closed the deal last year.

Been thinking on this one a while. There are literally ten players or so I would consider here. But I think this guy is the best point left on the board for this team.

Well, he's pretty expensive and doesn't have the greatest rep around here but he's also pretty clearly BPA from what I can see and arguably the last "difference maker" on the board:

Image

Isiah Thomas. Great playmaker, excellent defender, solid scorer and leader. He's pretty pricey and a little off-prime here but that's what you get at the end of the 3rd in such a limited format. Still happy to get my "third banana" while I can.

There are several good options but I'm pretty legitamtely shocked this guy is left on the board which probably means I should grab him even if he isn't the best fit available, he still fits pretty well.

Image

MIchael Cooper. All-time great defender, decent shooter, good playmaker. I was little hesitant because he's a 2 but I think he can credibly guard 1-3, so I don't mind him next to Reggie. Pretty happy to get a player of his caliber for under 7 FGA here, exactly what I need.

A little surprised he's here. A younger version, but he still brings a lot to the table.

Time to stop overthinking this game.

This guy is a FGA bargain and an awesome fit for me.

Not his best year, but still impactful on both ends of the ball
