First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.

Not sure I like the middle.

8th place, not too bad. Should be able to get a solid team with an ok draft pick.
Questions - is this a snake draft at all? And could we get the salary limits for each team here?

Atlanta Hawks: $70.3 million (luxury tax line)

Let me know if any of these have changed.

Ditto -- top and bottom best. Middle dodgy.

So I'm third in picking a team and keepers, but 26th in picking remaining players?
Also, is the draft a snake order?

4th pick, exactly when the draft gets interesting.

Shoot, I have class tomorrow from 10am until noon. Hopefully I don't get a slot in that time frame.
-
Since people are busy I think we should shoot for being done by tomorrow night, but if the first few people want to go today it would make sense to me for them to do so.
-
I like where I'm at. 10th pick, I'll swing with that.
Then of course, I'll trade everybody away like the GM that I am.

Yeah I'm interested to hear what a rough schedule is for the next few days. I've only ever done the CB Draft and I know that we tend to break on weekends - is that more or less how this draft works?

Niceeeee 5th pick for non-keeper players. Good position I think.

Yeah, exactly the same.
The time slots where afternoon (starting at 2pm) and early evening (ending at 8pm) last year with a break between 5 and 6 ... for the first week. 10 minutes between picks.
Then two rounds a day the second week to fill out your bench. One round in the morning and one in the afternoon. 5 minutes between picks.

Yeah, I'm stuck in the middle as well. Doesn't seem like a very desirable place to be.
Oh well, I'll just have to hack the server and swap draft spots with someone. That way I get first pick of teams and players.

Depending on who is available when I pick, and who is available when you guys pick I might be interested in some type of trade.
-
If anyone in the bottom 4 or top 4 wants to pick 16th in teams and 16th in players, hit me back, just to chat.
-
I'll announce draft times later this afternoon. The selection process will be spread out over two days, so as to give people a little more time to select their teams and keepers.
I have no major objection if folks want to start announcing their teams today, so long as nobody gets skipped and there's no pressure put on GMs who wait until tomorrow.

I little diddy for those of us stuck in the middle straight from Steeler's Wheel on K-Billy and the Super Sounds of the 70's

So with 28 slots, 2 NBA rosters are going to be completely up for grabs in the player draft? So no one will have to be stuck with Orlando and Charlotte.

Thanks, Who. Much appreesh.
Sounds like my pick two team and my ski trip to vermont won't clash...although maybe I can squeeze it in during a late night game. "Ok whoever can give me the most compelling arguement for selecting Chris Bosh as LeBron's number 2 over Dwayne Wade gets my two clear cards."

Roy, im kinda dissapointed you didnt follow Yoki's lead and post a video on youtube of the lottery process.

This is awesome. I'm going to end up exactly with the team I want.

Anyone who's near the top for keepers want to be near the top for the draft? I'm willing to swap. I have the 6th pick in the draft... Reminder it's fixed order.

How much of a sweetener? We could swap picks at some point. Say I give you my late 4th for your early 5th, or something like that.

Rethinking... sorry :)
And not just because of your comment, IP. There are plenty of teams out there with two good players.
-
After careful consideration and ruling out a few teams that will definitely be gone by #8, I've narrowed my options down to...12. Hrm. Back to the drawing board.

I'm picking third for keepers, but I'm not sure if I want to contend or set up a team for the future.
If I contend, the first two picks are clearly Miami and OKC. After that..... I don't know which team I should choose.
If I rebuild, that'd be tough as well.
If anyone wants to trade, send me a PM and I'll see if I like any proposals.
-
since there's some looseness around the times for picking teams today and tomorrow, I may not be available for the second pick of teams/keepers while waiting for the first team to be taken. do we still have the same option of PMing someone to make the picks for us and if so, who's taking those requests this time around?

I'll take it. Just send 2 teams, and the order you want them in.

To be clear on the rules... You can swap franchises, but I'm pretty wary of the "sweetener" aspect.
The purpose of the franchise swaps is basically to help out people who get an unfavorable draft time, or who want to tackle a different challenge (i.e., have the #1 pick of franchises but wish to rebuild). It's not, however, intended to give franchises a leg up over one another by accumulating extra assets.
-
If someone really wants the rebuild route, my team being 11ths is in a good spot. Should be able to get a good team with two good young blocks already in place while being in a spot to get one of the better young blocks others could not keep.
(not that I expect to actually being able to swap draft spots)

First time GM for pick 2. Not sure if my position is good or not.

You need luck.
It happens. I was the 2nd to last to pick a team last year and somehow the Spurs dropped to me.
-

Pretty good. Toward either end is where you want to be. You'll get lots of good draft picks, and at that point in the team selection process there are a lot of roughly equal situations.

I'd be willing to swap mine for yours if you don't mind.
I'll pick 19th for teams, 10th for the draft.
I want the challenge of rebuilding a not so good franchise.

Does the draft for non-keepers start Saturday?
If so, I'm going to have trouble making selections. I'm on vacation with my family from Thursday afternoon to Sunday night.
I'll do my best to get my picks in on time.

Commish said that you can pick now if you want since you are up first.
I have no major objection if folks want to start announcing their teams today, so long as nobody gets skipped and there's no pressure put on GMs who wait until tomorrow.

All times are EST.
The draft will begin next week. I'd like feedback on whether we should start Monday (President's Day) or Tuesday. We won't pick on weekends.
TruthFot18 can make his selection any time.

Good luck to everyone ... I'll try and stop by and put in my two cents worth, (it's probably more like 1.7 cents). ;)
Hope to be back at it next year, and the CB draft to come!

bring this up

Just so that we know, I have a question.
If its your turn to pick a Team and give your keepers, you don't have to give your keepers right away, just before the deadline listed by Roy for tomorrow(like my time is 12:00 noon)?
So let's say over the next hour the first four people came out, declared their team and gave their keepers, if I wanted to just pick my team so that others could pick their teams, I could do that right, just so long as I have my keepers declared before noon tomorrow?

I'm cool with it. It's not like you're preventing anyone from picking a player. You have rights over the whole team.

exactly, well put
-
Nick you gotta do both at once, per rules on the FP IIRC.
-
And actually, it makes some sense. If I had the first pick and just chose Miami, but didnt specify my keepers until the last team picked, I could really screw up someone's plans by keeping Bosh over Wade or something.
-
Nick you gotta do both at once, per rules on the FP IIRC.
Yeah, the intention is to pick the team and the keepers at the same time. The keepers one GM keeps might effect the team another GM chooses.
I doubt it becomes a huge issue, but it just seems messy if there's separation between selecting the team and the keeper players. (i.e., what happens if a GM picks a team but fails to pick their keepers, etc.)
-
Excited - an oasis in the all-star break desert.
-
Lucky and I have worked it down to umm 15 teams or so. ;D
-
Before it comes up: You take players as you find them, meaning injuries count. If you take Leandro Barbosa as a keeper, for instance, you're getting an injured Barbosa.
Also, teams should assume that any keeper they take will re-sign with their team (for market rate) indefinitely. There's no risk that a keeper will choose to depart the next season in free agency.
-
Totally ready for my pick to cause a major kerfuffle.

KC, send me a pm. Curious about what you're doing.

You can't pick theCharlattle Supercats. They're not a real team.

Doing my tier rankings for shooting guards - when you consinder salaries it's really, really difficult.
You've got a lot of super talents probably making too much at this point, and a lot of emerging stars who are not quite there, but making much less.
-
So to specify, only this years salaries matter and contract lengths mean nothing?
-
So to specify, only this years salaries matter and contract lengths mean nothing?
I could be wrong - but the way I interpreted it was that this years salary is what's used against your cap but length still matters. Kind of opens up debates about team's ability to pay certain players in the future
ie: Ty Lawson makes something like 1 million this year, but 10 next.
-
So to specify, only this years salaries matter and contract lengths mean nothing?
Are you talking about poison pill players? (Players who have signed an extension before the end of their rookie contacts)
For the cap aspect of the game, whatever they're making this year is all that matters against the cap restriction.
In terms of extensions, length of contract, it only matters as much as you let it matter to you; there are no winners.

Maybe there should be some definitiveness on this? I know its not competitive, but i think it opens up two very different schools of thought. Use ty lawson for example
Person 1 could just use this years salary and say they got a steal.
Person 2 looks at it as a steal, but has to consider his teams ability to pay out these salaries down the road.

The game (or exercise, or whatever) envisions you picking up the player with his current contract. The only modification to that rule is that your two keepers are guaranteed to re-sign with your team at market rate.

Yes, pick now. Your pick is due *by* 10:00am. Announce your pick in this thread, preferably in colored text.
Yes, you announce your team, and your two "keeper" players. (i.e., Boston Celtics, Fab Melo, Leandro Barbosa)

I don't know if there's 'too early' in this because it's just a for fun draft. And I think there's definitely an argument to be made that making a young Pistons squad would be more fun/rewarding than say, building a 'contender' around Lebron/Wade.
That being said - KC, I'm surprised you didn't go with the team you PM'd me about earlier.

I don't really see why their draft order should be swapped. Wouldn't that imply Nick would then get to pick before Evan in the player draft?

I think Nick should continue to move back until he picks. If he were to pick now he should absolutely get to pick in front of me in the player draft portion.

I figured it would go Mia/OKC/LAC/SAS. Pretty close. That Detroit pick sure was a surprise, bt I really like the pick.
Monroe/Drummond is a crazy good big man combo. I'm betting one of them gets traded for a early pick though.

Eh, it was his fault, not yours. I mean this is all for fun so, I guess we don't have to hold strong to rules. I just know in other similar drafts I've done, you don't get to move up in later rounds.

I don't really see why their draft order should be swapped. Wouldn't that imply Nick would then get to pick before Evan in the player draft?
Basically, the 5th pick was vacated (temporarily).
I think Nick should continue to move back until he picks. If he were to pick now he should absolutely get to pick in front of me in the player draft portion.
Eh, it was his fault, not yours. I mean this is all for fun so, I guess we don't have to hold strong to rules. I just know in other similar drafts I've done, you don't get to move up in later rounds.
Well it was not your fault but miiiine
-
Oh, I definitely see the appeal of building around certain duos. Especially a couple of good eggs like Drummond and Monroe.
Frick and Frack may be better players, but better people? No way.

Any rules on relocating franchises?
Rebus and I were kicking around the idea of renaming our franchise the Winnipeg Flying Poutine Monsters.

Skipped teams won't have their original draft order adjusted. Otherwise, it might give people an incentive to voluntarily get skipped.
If you and nick want to voluntarily agree to swap some of your draft picks, though, I wouldn't object.

So that is the 6th team taken (with the 8th pick), right? Seems about right, I had the Knicks @ 7.
Anthony and Chandler is a good combo, and boy do them Knicks got money to burn.

I usually try to pick who I think will be the most fun, and I was really tempted to take a younger team, but I think the Knicks have great potential. Plus I'm like the only guy around here who likes Carmelo.

You're trading Kobe, right?

IP,
Can I have permission to make the selection of my team and not announce my keepers so we can expedite things? I think you can probably figure out why I'd want to do that.

Today is Valentine's Day so I am off to spend the rest of the day with my wife.
Kobe is on the block....PM me with offers

Sorry for people who PM'd me, was at the deli getting lunch.
Some old lady, hovered near the middle of the line, clearly by passing the queue of 5 people formed, when the server asked, 'who's next?' I raised my hand.
THE OLD WOMAN SAYS, "NO. I've been waiting long enough. Your turn to wait."
I said I'd been there longer, and she'd just ignored the line, quietly. The server looked at me, then looked at the crotchety old lady, shrugged, and served the old lady.
3 pizzas and about a bagillion coupons later, with one argument where the lady raised her voice about her treatment to the manager, I got my half-sub and cup of soup.
I'm about ready to get all allegedly Ray Lewis up in here.

Oh wow, I didn't realize Harden was still on his rookie deal. That gives you a huge amount of flexibility. What is Asik and Harden? A combined $12 million? Something like that. Nice.
I love building around someone with Harden's skill-set. The scoring and the playmaking. Makes things a lot easier offensively to have a ball-handling and playmaking wing of his caliber. Asik to anchor the defense too.
A bit similar to what New York have with Carmelo and Tyson.

Yeah, very interesting keepers there. I think this is now shaping up to be one of the most fun teams in this CB Fantasy League.
Lots of versatility too. KG can go PF or C. Bradley can go PG or SG. Lots of options in how best to build around those players. Bradley is cheap. Garnett is fairly cheap too. Lots of money available.
Cool choice.

So what kind of value are people going to place on Rondo in the draft? How badly is his current knee injury going to count against him?
He can't be considered viable for a team built to win this year.

Depends on your team. If you are loaded with older win now, little.
Young bucks not going to win, a lot.

Yeah, you take your players as you find them for a theoretical 2013 season. However, a lot of GMs are going to be future-oriented, and to them Rondo is going to be an extremely appealing piece.
Wade, Rondo and Pierce will be available at the top of the draft. That's pretty appealing.

LA not till the high teens? I thought the Kobe/Dwight pairing with LA's payroll cushioning the impact of Kobe's contract guaranteed them a spot in the top 10.

For me I thought there was too much unknown to pick Rondo.
In a real draft I'd probably take him, but I don't know enough about how other people in this draft view them.

Agree with the Lakers payroll cap being so much higher than everyone else's guaranteeing them a top 10 spot. I had them at 6, pretty much where they went.

A banged up Dwight really hurt them for me. I had Nash there instead of Kobe. I didn't think Kobe would be a keeper due to his contract (plus, Kobe is kinda annoying to build around with his selfish ways). So I had LA well back.
I am not sure how important that extra financial wiggle room will be. I didn't give it much value. I am really looking forward to seeing how important all this salary stuff turns out to be.

Haha, I had West's name written down, crossed out, then written down again about 3 times.
As far as reasoning, I mean it's obviously not the sexy pick, but Paul George is just awesome. Only 22 years old and he's the complete package.
Hibbert has had a down year offensively, but defensively this pairing is about as solid as it gets. The advanced defensive metrics on these two are unreal.

I'd say those two considerations (Kobe's salary and the higher cap) cancel each other out - if the extra payroll room isn't too important, might as well use it securing the better player.

that's a good point. how are the monies going to be tracked? do we have to post the salaries of the players when we make our picks or is someone going to validate everything at the end?
also, do we have to worry about incoming/outgoing salaries matching within a certain amount like the CBA? I really like the idea of trades based on talent rather than $.

My main beef with Hibbert is how much he struggles defensively against bigs like KG that can pull him out of the paint.
But George and Hibbert is certainly a daunting defensive tandem.

I think you are meant to list the player and this year's salary next to him when drafting the player. Plus, probably at some point later. To make sure you are under the team's cap.
Trades are still for talent. Salaries don't matter. You don't have to match salaries. Just make sure you are under your team's salary cap at the end of the game.

...we should come up with a template for reporting salaries as we draft. Something like this attached to each draft post:
Carmelo Anthony $19.4
Tyson Chandler $13.6
Draft Pick #1 $9.2

BTW, can we make a gentlemen's agreement about rounding salaries to the nearest $100k or $10k? Kind of a pain to do the exact dollar amounts.

I like the idea of rounding it to the nearest $100K, much easier. Nearest $10K works though too.
-

I am all for that. Yes, please. Do this!
Edit: On second thought, $10k would be better. Two decimal places. $7.46 million. Nice and neat. And accurate.

I would be against this idea. I think it would be a bit annoying to do that every time you make a pick + it will clutter up the draft thread.
We normally have a separate rosters thread so we can see everybody's teams side-by-side. I think we should do that but also have a 2nd separate sticky thread for salaries.
(1) Rosters
(2) Salaries by team
One for rosters. One for salary listings of individual players and team salary. Better to separate them so people can scan team's rosters more quickly when discussing them after the draft.
People could post their updated teams in each thread every so often.
That would be my preferred option.

While I agree that it'll be annoying, I think we should take a few extra steps to make the math as transparent as possible. Nothing will be worse than if we have a few teams near the end unable to fill out their rosters.

We could compromise and just have people state their total salary before the pick, the salary of the guy they picked, and the new total. It would keep things from getting too cluttered as the rosters filled up.
Kind of a related question - are we allowed to be over the cap at any point in the process? Do we just have to make it under the cap at the end or do we have to stay under that amount for the entire draft?

This is a good question.

No. Your budget is a hard cap.

In the late rounds, people will really need to pay attention to that hard cap.

Sorry to be annoying, but what is the link to the website we're using for salaries again? Could we maybe put that on one of the first page posts on this thread?
EDIT: Ignore the first question, but the second one still stands.
DOUBLE EDIT: Thanks, Roy!

OK, hope Rebus is OK with this.
We're taking Portland, LaMarcus Aldridge and Damian Lillard, at a combined $16.5 mil.
Rebus loves the pick.

Yeah, you've spent $47 million on your keepers. That would kill most teams. Instead, you've got $50 million left.
For most teams, that's the equivalent of getting Kobe and Dwight for about $10 million each per season.
-
When can we submit trades for approval? Is there an "end of the first round before trade are announced" rule?

Send them to me.
If I'm not around, IndeedProceed, wdleehi, StartOrien, and nickagneta are all Assistant Commishes.
Now, don't go approving your own trade. ;)

Steal, even given the current woes of the junior member of that duo.

Wow. Can't imagine being a $70 mil capped team and trading for those two. Would really be behind the 8-ball to fill out the rest of the roster with only $23 mil.

Well Kobe is most of it remember, $30M...
Howard's is much more palatable.

two teams still left to be picked today

Hopefully there's a few good teams leftover when its my turn to pick..

Most teams at least have something to offer, and you should end up with a pretty good player in the draft.

Nice pick. Gasol and Randolph are a solid core. Now lets see if you try to run a them a little less cheaply than the real owner.

Yeah, top five center and a top five power forward. Strong interior foundation to build a team around.
I think with a pick in the middle of the first round, Memphis should be able to get a strong perimeter guy to go with their interior duo. Strong chance to build a very strong team.

Just pick a team and two players that you would rebuild your roster around (from said team)... make sure said team is not picked yet

I'll take your pick off your hand in exchange for mine (2 spots lower and not due until 10:30 am tomorrow) if you like.
Just to be clear, we would only be exchanging draft spots for the francise draft, not the player draft. I would throw in an extra 4th round pick though. I will have an extra 4th rounder as soon as I pick my team.

Either way, with Rubio in the fold it's more of a "for the future" pick. Not sure it's strong enough of a core to "win now" regardless.
I do believe Love will be back before the end of the season though.

Yea Love just recently started practicing again. Certainly thinking for the future but I think I can definitely put some solid scorers on this team with a defensive minded center and make it more than competetive

Yea, Timberwolves would've been me if Memphis weren't available xD
I should make a all-traditional-bigs team! Old-school style!

I don't think mild ankle sprains for somebody that doesnt have a history of ankle sprains is an issue. I think somebody that has missed more games than they have played over the past 3 years has injuries come into play in this game.

just curious, if we want to select a player that's not active in the NBA, can we do that and if so, can we sign them for the vet min?
I thought Roy said "market rate". A lot of players overseas would command a lot more than the minimum, especially if they are a FA (don't have a European contract)

Yeah.
If you're signing a free agent, I will determine the salary. PM me, or ask publicly. Most free agents will get the vet minimum, but at least one I can think of would command more than that.
For players currently under contract overseas, you can acquire their "rights". However, that player won't be playing for your team this year, and thus wouldn't count against your cap.

Not sure I understand the injuries. Are we assuming its a perfect world and everybody is healthy? Or are we going by real life?
No, if your player is injured they will kill you for that. Injuries matter in this game. Heck, a mild sprain ankle would be a career ending injury in this game to be honest. LOL
Trust me, I know.
Why do you say that? Lol
That's the name of the game. Other GM's would find any possible ways to argue that your team is not the best. Injuries are the main weapon. Especially when you get players that are injured prone.
With that in mind, Eric Gordon will miss a ton of games Who, you should have not picked him along with A.Davis.
I don't think mild ankle sprains for somebody that doesnt have a history of ankle sprains is an issue. I think somebody that has missed more games than they have played over the past 3 years has injuries come into play in this game.
It was an issue last year for a player not to be named. Man, I fought long and hard to defend that. ;D
You're not talking about a certain 7' tall Australian, are you? His injury concerns were pretty valid.
But his injuries are non recurring. And yet I got killed by everybody with it. He's being productive now isnt he? Missed games and all.
Injuries are a big target in this game. You got a certain guy on your team that gets injured a lot, you might wanna do your homework on how to defend him.
I sure as heck tried. LOL

Bogut has provent that we were all right about him. He has missed the majority of the season and is not playing up to his non-injured level.
-
But his injuries are non recurring. And yet I got killed by everybody with it. He's being productive now isnt he? Missed games and all.
Well, he's still not playing in back-to-backs, and has played 10 games so far. I can't knock anybody who didn't have faith in him to have a healthy season.
Unfortunately, I think people are going to be saying the same think about AV next year. He just seems prone to a lot of freak injuries.

Haven't they all been his legs until the recent blood clot? (which was from surgery on his leg)
So many leg injuries in a big man unfortunately don't usually go away.

No, Varejao missed most of last year with a broken wrist. Before that it was his (left) ankle, and this year a (right) quad / hernia / blood clot.

09-10 it was his bad hamstrings that prevented him from playing nearly as much as they'd have liked.

The Brooklyn Nets select Deron Williams & Brook Lopez

I have no idea if salt lover intends to participate. He was listed as a "maybe", and hasn't gotten back to me yet. I figured I'd save him a slot, but if there are any replacement GMs out there who would like a team, his can probably be yours.

A bad value that makes a sneaky good pick, much like the Lakers. I was hoping they'd fall

Yeah. I can't promise that it will be updated frequently, but there will be a list of players posted on the front page of this thread.

I have a feeling we are going to play waiting game with salt lover as he hasnt been active all thiss time
-
Hopefully im wrong
-
I started this morning with a list of three teams and I still have three teams.
My lunch ends around 11 (class starts at 11:05) I will make my pick at that point whether or not salty shows up.

Saltlover, on the clock. Still no sign?

Ill probably be making my pick around 12:01 and 12:10 as im at school

There are rumors of a pending deal between Brooklyn and the Lakers. Awaiting confirmation, but feel free to speculate.

Probably the same team I am thinking of. Hard to determine whether to build for future with them or hope their injured star returns soon.

Gomesfan, I see you lurking up there. If you want saltlover's team, it's all yours.

You can.
You can deal players, or picks, or both.
You can swap franchises straight up.
The only thing you can't do is combine picks or players with a franchise swap.
-
Just letting everyone know I probably won't be able to make my pick until about 3:30 which is when it's due, I just don't wanna be the guy to hold this up (hectic schedule today).

You see, this is the problem with social media. A rumor gets started citing unspecified sources and then it spirals out of control. I think you just want to see your name in print, Mr. H.

He got a lot better from Freshman to Sophomore year. In his junior year I expect him to develop his handle so that he can use his athleticism to attack the basket.
They have been decent this year and easily could have won three or four more games in conference. I see them as finally breaking through for the tourney next year.

Confirmed trade:
Lakers send Kobe Bryant and 4.24
Nets send Deron Williams and 3.13
If those draft picks need to be adjusted due to a dropped GM, we'll adjust it.

No, no, no. DWIGHT wanted to go to Brooklyn, silly! You messed up your primadonnas.

Interesting deal. Brooklyn has the 2nd highest cap but Kobe makes a cool $10 mill more than Deron, so they might feel the squeeze later on. Meanwhile LA can basically ignore salary throughout the process - just like the real Lakers!

Deron Williams $17.18 million
Dwight Howard $19.54 million
TOTAL: $36.72 million
CAP REMAINDER: $62.58 million

Thought really long and hard about this, but whatever.
I'm picking Chicago with Luol Deng and Joakim Noah as my cornerstones. I could use that extra 4 million in my cap as well.
BTW, do we send trade proposals to Commish Roy?

Boom. And just like that, 1) Yoki has a solid foundation, and 2) Derrick Rose is draftable for future-oriented teams.
If you or any other GM wants to consult with me about a trade offer, I'll try to give candid thoughts on it.

Very true, they've got an extra 300k to mess with.
GS was a team I strongly considered at #8 (along with Houston and Portland). Nice pickup for wdleehi, though Klay over Lee is a bold move.
-
Not naming names but I'm very curious to see how far some of the guys who are underperforming/injured on big contracts will fall. I think at least a couple will be available awfully late in the game.

That's the team I was referring to earlier. Suprised he took Thompson over Lee

Yes he is.
But I don't see him good enough to eat 12 million right now. And I think later on, it will be harder to trade him because I think the players we think as equal to him make less money.
I have the backcourt to build around for 6.2 million. I have 65.3 million left to use.

Roy, I just checked Shamsports most recent salaries and I believe a few of the teams listed on the 1st page of this thread are slightly off. These are the actual total salaries, not including cap holds.
Right now they have listed: Lakers @ $100.17m, Heat @ $84.18m, Nets @ $ 83.51m & Knicks @ $79.29m.
Also, has there been any official decision made on what place holder we are rounding team/player salaries to?

From my experience, that site tends to be a little more accurate. So, that's where I got the budgets from.
Salaries will still be based on shamsports, though.
In terms of salaries... I guess just round them to the nearest ten thousand.

My two picks are John Wall and Bradley Beal.
Tough decision... there are a few other teams that I'd love to build on, and one of them in particular has (in my opinion) more talent but also includes a contract that I don't want. Having to account for that is definitely a different experience.

In terms of salaries... I guess just round them to the nearest ten thousand.
So team salaries are from one site, and player salaries from another? Seems a little confusing but ok. Not much difference for me anyway.

I'm taking The Washington Wizards.
My two picks are John Wall and Bradley Beal.
Tough decision... there are a few other teams that I'd love to build on, and one of them in particular has (in my opinion) more talent but also includes a contract that I don't want. Having to account for that is definitely a different experience.
Just don't ask David Faulk for his opinion.

Nice pick sir, they were on the list of teams I wanted as well.
I love the salary of those two. So cheap, and so full of potential.
That's what drew me to them. Both have the talent to be among the best at their respective position, and both are also affordable in the meantime.
Surprised they lasted this long, honestly.

If Rondo can somehow trade up for the #1 pick and grab (redacted) without giving up Smith or Horford, the team goes from less than the sum of its parts into fringe contender. And Rondo has the pieces to do it.

Atlanta and Dallas were great late picks. I think both teams were right to drop because both needed high picks to be turned into a contender from where they currently are.
But now that they have done that, yeah, I think both squads have a great chance at putting together a dominant ball club. Very much looking forward to these two teams.

Surprised one has lasted this long. considering these will get early picks each round, I think the right pick could become a real powerhouse. As much as being at the end of the team-picking round can seem a disadvantage, having the early draft picks can be a better situation to be in.

What's that? Tristan Thompson tiers out as the NBA's 75th most efficient defender, due mostly to his excellent defense in isolation as defending the pick and roll? And that this is even more exemplary because they're doing it without their most experienced and skilled post defender?
Well I dare say I had no idea! I just thought that guy was a draft bust from 2012! He's one heck of a ball-player!

Gotta say, I didn't think I'd have a chance to get a solid foundation to build off of from the middle, but I'll take my chances with Kobe and Brook Lopez.
On thw whole, I think the two people that ended up with Atlanta and Dallas (with high draft picks) might be in the best position for now.

I love this draft because the first two rounds are so interesting.
Pick 2 basically means 10-15 players are going to be picked that don't deserve to be kept amongst the top 56-60 players in the league.
I'm wondering how much the salary cap is going to effect GMs to take a lesser talented player because he is less expensive
-
Monta on the block, and for the right package, my 1.6. And I mean the right package.
-
The salary cap factor is huge, unless you are the Lakers or Knicks.
-
The salary cap factor is huge, unless you are the Lakers or Knicks.
The Lakers have their own playing field entirely, and then it's the Heat, Nets & Knicks at about the same.
Luckily (for me) I have the best draft position of the 4.
-
The salary cap factor is huge, unless you are the Lakers or Knicks.
Its an advantage too for other teams. I've got 9.3 million dollars committed to 2 players who combine for 38.5 pts, 13.6 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game, and will continue to improve for the next 4 years.
And I've got roughly 61 million dollars to commit to the rest of my team after that.
Compare that to the production from say..Brookyln, LA, or New York.
Yea...now you see.

I have 33 PPG, 15.1 RPG, 9.1 APG, 2 SPG and 2.8 BPG and still have $65 million left to spend.
Not seeing where either team has any advantage other than that your team is getting better production per dollar but I'm not sure that is all that big a factor in this endeavor.
All I want to do is make the best team possible while making the Lakers better than they are currently constructed.
-
IP, true. Lucky and I are paying two players 16.5 million for 36.2 ppg, 9apg, 12 rpg. Plus they're both young.
-
I get the feeling that all of the top talent is going to go off the board pretty quickly and the teams with extra cap space are just going to end up with more expensive role players. Those $7-10 million players instead of $5 million players and $5-6 million players instead of $2-3 million players.
Unless they can find a trade or two with some team that hasn't handled their cap well or is overly worried early on about their cap situation.

This has pretty much been my take on it. Gonna be some top heavy rosters. Heck, mine is the top-heaviest with just Kobe.
Stars win in this league though, not cap space.

Same with me. Mayo is on da block
-
Round One and two will be interesting and then I think the budgets come into play.
I think what the interesting thing will be is when teams have 4-6 players and they suddenly realize they have no ability to make their team better by simply drafting because they are so limited as to who to select because of the salary cap.
Its going to happen to a lot of team that don't slot their salary for each round and be careful about what they have to spend and can spend.
Then a raft of trading is going to take place where these teams attempt to trade similar talent around similar positions just to increase their cap and give them more to draft.
So my guess is that come Wednesday or Thursday of next week you will see huge player movement as teams attempt to rework their salary.

Any mock drafts available? ;D
You can check out last year's Pick II draft and more recently last summer's CB Draft. They will give you a fair idea of where various players in the draft are rated.

Now comes the waiting.
Are the draft times for Monday posted yet?
yeah, this is going to be key for me. probably be available since I'm at the end but will need to be sure I'm not commuting at that time
Draft times are on the front page. I rushed through it, so let me know if I inverted the order, messed up the times, etc.

don't know how I missed those. thanks Roy. I should be ok for most of those picks. hoping I can rely on you and the other commishes to help me make picks for me when I'm not available.

Yes, me neither. Nearly all of the high level talent is gone by the end of the first round. It's pretty much the only chance you have to draft another difference maker to add to your starting duo.
Hard to find value in trading out of this round.

My 1.9 pick is up for trade for whoever wants it mainly looking for players

It's great to see so much new blood in this draft. I'm impressed by the level of activity.
I'd encourage everyone to look over last year's draft board before making any trades, just to get an idea of value. Also, be skeptical if any of the veteran GMs try to talk you into a deal. (Hint: Mr. Proceed does not have your best interests at heart, no matter how many semi-clever quips he throws at you.)

For my team (SA), I'm looking for '3 and D' guys at the 2 and 3, and then a mobile defender at the 4 to put next to Duncan.
As for backups, I need defenders who are capable of moving the ball. They need to be decent floor spacers, too.
Your team is building for the future, I assume, so I would look for young guys with potential on the cheap. If you're trying to win, trade Thompson and a couple picks for a high first.

For my own team, I neve like to pigeon-hole myself as 'building for the future'. The way I see it, Im looking for versatile high-character guys at the 2 and 3 who can compensate for Irving's sub-par passing, and ideally a 5 who can clear some space for Irving.
I don't think Im going to trade for picks in the first few rounds, because people's value scales tend to highly favor 1sts. I think Id be better off waiting for teams to sort themselves out, and then facilitate filling holes (giggity).
For the Spurs, it is absolutely imperative that you get a high-caliber big next to Duncan immediately, and a high-scoring wing. The cool thing about Duncan is that you can go young though next to him. If I had been able to land the Spurs, my top target in the draft or via trade would've likely been Derrick Favors. The other cool thing about the Spurs is that you can take a flier on malcontents. I doubt you could snag a Boogie Cousins, but think of other 'unstable' bigs who need some guidance.
And with everything Spurs, you gotta go 'tough'. Don't pick any pansies.

Irving could end up being a top 5 player in the NBA. I think he's that good.
With that said, he's not exactly a good defensive player at this point and you'll need to load your team with guys who can hide him. The one thing he does have is size (he's big for a PG) and you might consider grabbing a defensive-minded combo guard to take the better offensive threat every night.
Aside from that, I view Thompson as more of a complementary piece, not a guy around whom you design your gameplan. Irving is your man. Get guys who Irving can help, and who can help Irving. If you can't get a perimeter big, then I wouldn't hesitate to move Thompson. He's a solid player, which means he's also a solid trade chip.

Before I did my homework selecting the Cavs, that was my thought as well.
Here is what David Thorpe says about Thompson, filed under 'Guys In The Rising Stars likely to make at least one all-star game'
Tristan Thompson, Cavaliers | Sophomore
TT is quietly putting together a nice Most Improved Player campaign. He is learning how to finish shots, making free throws better, and playing like the athlete he was in college. He has the talent to be one of the league's top rebounders and a double-double guy for the next eight seasons. He should also be a plus defender, capable of guarding either big position as well as stretch 4s, thanks to his agility.
-

Aldridge would really benefit from a banger in the middle. He's come a long way in the toughness department since he came into the league, but he's still best suited as a face-up big on the elbow. A physical space-eater inside would complement that really well.
-
Not that Im not open to moving Thompson, just that my asking price a bit higher than most might expect.

I just question whether he'll develop any range. I think you were on to something when you were looking for a perimeter 5 - I'd keep pressing that angle.
What do you view as Thompson's ceiling? I see him as a 16/12 guy with good defense. That's an excellent roleplayer, but I still think you need to worry about putting that good #2 scorer next to Irving, and then figuring out where Thompson fits into the puzzle.

In terms of skillset, yes. In terms of temperament, maybe not so much. Bynum seems determined to be an alpha dog (deserved or not) and may not like the fact that Portland is LMA's team at this point.

Yes Bynum is an alpha dog but Dwight is the one having problems with Kobe when Bynum was there he knew it was kobes team
-
Trading Andrew Bynum for a first
He'd be an intriguing frontcourt complement to LMA.
I disagree, A.Bynum would be bad for Aldridge just like A.Bynum was bad for Pau Gasol.
Sticking Aldridge alongside a low-post-only big man forces Aldridge to spend a larger proportion of his time and receive a larger portion of touches and shot attempts further away from the basket. More time in that 15-22 foot range than in that 6-12 foot range.
Which creates lower quality scoring opportunities which leads to both lower scoring numbers and lower scoring efficiency. It makes Aldridge less of a threat offensively. Easier to defend against. Less of a matchup problem.
You want to get Aldridge alongside a big man who has an inside-outside game (like Marc Gasol) or someone who plays mainly away from the hoop. Avoid guys who only have value offensively 5 foot from the basket (at least in important / big minute roles).

In the third round, hypothetically, you're filling out your starting 5.
Would you trade a 3rd and a 5th for two 4ths?
Maybe. Depends. The draft flows in tears. And tiers.
When you succeed, you guess how to ride out the tiers.

If Ronaldo was simply trying to pit us against each other for Bynum, you can have him.

Was there a Kyrie + Bynum tandem before? Last year maybe?
Maybe, can't remember.
Again, hypothetically, since no trade has yet been approved, here is how Id see it.
Andrew Bynum is a lot of things. Potentially injury prone, potentially problematic in the lockerroom, terrible neighbor.
But he's shown himself to be a 20-10 all-star, elite defender among centers, and he's supposed to return after the break.
I can't fathom a situation that might arise where I would (hypothetically) have the potential to acquire a center with a track record of 20-10 who has not yet reached his ceiling in the draft. Injury prone or no, the remaining high-ceiling centers are nowhere near as dominant offensively as Andrew Bynum.
While ideally Id prefer a better stretch 4 next to Bynum, Thompson won't stop rebounding , converting in transition, or working the P&R. On the other side, i (hypothetically) acquire a potential 20 pt scorer, 10+ rebounder, and elite defender at the 5 to build around Irving long-term.

We paired Bynum and Irving last year, and I loved that combo at the time. In theory, I still do. In reality, Bynum has had a major injury in 5 out of the past 6 seasons and has major attitude problems. He's also going to be getting a max contract.
That's not the type of player I'd build around.
-
If ronaldo can surround Holiday with nice pieces at those two firsts and two seconds, he's got a real strong contender right there.
-
These trades early in the draft is making me itch!
I'm in control, i'm in control...

Anyone looking for picks?

He traded for Bynum? That bum is always hurt. What kind of player hurts himself bowling?

I haven't heard anything about a Randolph trade.
However, the Bynum deal is confirmed:
Cavs send:

2.16
76ers send:

Straight HATE this trade for Cleveland.
Excited to see IP back pedal, and then annoyed knowing someone will probably bail him out. Thats the laker way.
-
Also, this trade makes me realize how dumb i was for not keeping rondo
-
Yeah, I'm not a fan of the Bynum deal either. He only makes you a contender if he reaches his full potential, stays healthy, and does a 180 in personality. That's a lot of of ifs to give up the top of your draft for.
-
BTW Tyson Chandler is available if anyone's interested. EDIT: Please be prepared to make an initial offer, there are only a few teams whose players/picks I'd really covet.
Melo's technically available but you'd have to bowl me over.
-
Monta still on the block. A couple offers in but still thinking things over. PM me.
EDIT: Jennings as well.

OJ Mayo is available, if anyone is interested. Will listen to offers for Dirk too.

Building for the future..will listen to offers for additional picks

I think we'll need an official ruling on this. In past drafts, we've allowed and disallowed such trades.

Roy says we may and we may not. In the proposed trade, both teams still have at least 12 players+picks, so it should be fine either way.

How would you do the order for free agents though. It'd basically need to just turn into more voting or else its just a free for all

No free agents.
Teams need to have at least 12 players, and a max of 13 (non-overseas) players.
Teams with 12 players will be assessed a $490k roster charge.

Might I make a general recommendation that traders then match picks? I.e. don't trade two picks for one, instead trade two picks for one pick and one last-rounder.

I don't particularly like that rule. We tried that one year, and I felt that it limited GMs' creativity. Rather, I'd prefer to let GMs figure out how to balance their rosters properly.
As a "best practices" thing I don't mind it, but I don't want it to be a hard and fast rule.

Andray Blatche was going to start a music career after he was messing around with a friend's guitar and stumbled upon a series of notes that inspired wonder and magic in even the most cynical of souls. He formed a band using attractive all-girl studio musicians and he wanted to call themselves 'Dray and the 10's'.
He played his awe-inspiring tune at the first of what was supposed to be a series of intimate club dates to help the band refine their sets and chemistry. He introduced the song as 'Andre's Souliloqy'. Within ten seconds someone yelled out, "THAT'S THE THEME SONG FROM JURRASIC PARK!!!"

I like the move for Atlanta. Not wild about Horford and Josh Smith together. Hard to find the extra firepower needed to make them title-worthy. I think restructuring around Horford and two firsts is a better prospect for Atlanta's chances.
For Philly, I think a lot will depend on that early 2nd rounder. If someone slips and they get strong value there, I think this works out well for Philly. If not, then they were probably better off sticking with the two firsts. A risky move.
-
Thanks guys, I think I should be able to build a pretty good team with horfod and 3 firsts

The Sixers might've given up a wee bit too much, but I think overall it's a good trade for both teams.
I really like the Holiday - Smith pairing. Smith's basically a rich man's version of Thad Young. Lot of fun there.
Looking at my board 1.9 will be a player equal to smith or maybe a little bit less talented. But fit wise, I think it'll be MUCH, much better. And if I'm the Hawks I definitely choose to build around Horford.
-
Also, you guys, just cuz a player is a good slam dunker doesn't mean he's a good NBA player. So stay the heck away from Terrence Ross, OK?!

Great trade for Atlanta. They already had the 5th pick and now the 9th and 16th while simultaneously getting rid of Smith.
First 16 picks are going to have the most transcendental stars as well as the biggest bargains for talent in the draft.
Rondo made the right move and got the best out of this trade. Question for ronaldo, what is so special about Josh Smith to give up those first rounders? Are you really better off now that Bynum and your first rounder are gone or with Smith and no first rounders?
I'm leaning towards rather having Bynum because I just don't see Philly as being a contending team and think building towards next year would be better, but maybe not. What's everyone else think?
Was Philly better off Bynum/Holiday/original picks or Smith/Holiday/3 2nd rounders? I guess an argument can be made for both.
-
Atlanta is gonna be stacked.
-
Maybe it's just cuz this is the first time I've drafted in the second half of the Pick 2 draft, but anyone else feel like there's less good players available?

Its about the same, and I've drafted all over the Pick 2 draft.
And don't forget, players slip. Well they have in the past, this CB Draft it almost never happened but with the salary cap, I'm thinking players will slip.

I think Ronaldo did pretty well on the Bynum deal. Bynum has great skills, but he's had major injuries in 5 out of 6 seasons, including missing every game this year. How can any team realistically rely upon him for anything? Plus, he's a punk.
In the Smith deal, I don't know because I haven't mapped out the non-keepers left over. It all depends upon what's left over at #9.

Yes and no. If Rondo screws the pooch and drafts Greg Oden and Jason Collins in the first round, it doesn't mean it was a good trade for you.
-
Maybe it's just cuz this is the first time I've drafted in the second half of the Pick 2 draft, but anyone else feel like there's less good players available?
Yeah, I picked late in draft (last five picks) last year and was surprised how little talent was available by that late stage of the round. 2nd round too.
Very few difference makers available.
-
Thanks guys, I think I should be able to build a pretty good team with horfod and 3 firsts
I didn't even cop on to the fact you still had your own first round pick. Horford and three firsts. Wow, that is fantastic.
The fifth pick in the first round too. And the 9th. Two high first rounders. You can bring in two very strong players there. 16th should be a very good place to pick too. Mid first rounder. Strong picks.
Very much looking forward to seeing how this Atlanta team looks by end of Monday.

Unfortunately, that's about all that MIGHT be left by the time you draft ronaldo, Perk like bigs and one dimensional role players.
Remember something about the Pick 2 draft that is different from the CB Draft, round 2 in the Pick 2 is really round 4 in the CB Draft. By round 4 of the CB Draft, you're looking for role playing starters not difference makers.

If scorers aren't available, that could be a good way to boost your offense.

Question:
If a player makes a pick or makes a trade that puts them over the cap and the commish doesn't pick up on it what happens?
Is the pick or trade voided?
Is it allowed but all future drafting rights discontinued until a trade is made to get that team under the cap?
To avoid such things when teams start getting past 5-6 players should GMs list their salary cap numbers in the trade confirmations and draft picks to make things easier on the commish?

Jrue Holiday is a nice big PG with good defensive range.
A combo guard like Monta Ellis could work well alongside Holiday.

If scorers aren't available, that could be a good way to boost your offense.
If I'm a coach, to maximize Smith and to attempt to get him to take better shots, I would ONLY put him at PF and I would limit his outside touches. Putting Smith at SF is like giving him a green light to go ahead and jack all those outside shots that he is so inefficient at.

Yea i know Monta has never been really efficient but i mean this year he is at .401% FG .232 3P% compared to last year that is a downgrade
He was actually efficient 07-08 but thats about it

Andrew Bynum. Smith is a bit of a stretch 4, and elite defensively for the position, Bynum also an elite defender and a flat-out banger. Match made in heaven.

First of all, screw you guys.
Second of all, I'm just picking up the beat where others have left off. I'm not the first guy to say he's the second best center in basketball. (http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/player/hollinger/_/id/2748/andrew-bynum)
And fourth of all, I didn't say Tristan Thompson was as good as Dwight Howard. What I pointed out was that his stat line (and his play) is pretty special, and I was highlighting what is one of the more under-reported stories on the year, that likely only Jrue Holiday has a possible claim to MIP better than Thompson's.

Question:
If a player makes a pick or makes a trade that puts them over the cap and the commish doesn't pick up on it what happens?
I haven't decided yet. Rules should be up sometime before drafting starts.
My inclination is to disallow the trade and to do something punitive, like take away draft picks.

Andrew Bynum. Smith is a bit of a stretch 4, and elite defensively for the position, Bynum also an elite defender and a flat-out banger. Match made in heaven.
Somebody regrets the Bynum trade.
If opposing GMs are smart, they will make you pay for your mistake. (5 major injuries in the past 6 seasons.)

Oh god. I will not sit and listen to you bang the Andrew Bynum drum this whole exercise.
I have already heard one comparison beating the Tristian Thompson drum hinting he is as good as a 4 time DPOY and 4 time 20+PPG and 14+RPG player.
At least the Andrew Bynum drum beating is based on some kind of reality. ;D
First of all, screw you guys.
Second of all, I'm just picking up the beat where others have left off. I'm not the first guy to say he's the second best center in basketball. (http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/player/hollinger/_/id/2748/andrew-bynum)
And fourth of all, I didn't say Tristan Thompson was as good as Dwight Howard. What I pointed out was that his stat line (and his play) is pretty special, and I was highlighting what is one of the more under-reported stories on the year, that likely only Jrue Holiday has a possible claim to MIP better than Thompson's.
Someone woke up on the wrong side of northern New York this morning. ;) :D ;D

Question:
If a player makes a pick or makes a trade that puts them over the cap and the commish doesn't pick up on it what happens?
I haven't decided yet. Rules should be up sometime before drafting starts.
My inclination is to disallow the trade and to do something punitive, like take away draft picks.
How about they can not make another pick until they are under the cap? And they can not make another trade unless it puts them back under.
Or (for the real penalty) if they are not under by the time they pick again, they lose the player with the smallest contract that puts them under the cap. (they get an extra pick at the end of the draft)

Had the opportunity to get an elite player to pair next to Kyrie Irving for what was fundamentally a 3rd and 4th round pick. You take that when you get it.

Oddly enough, Canada is actually saving our butts right now. There are more Canadians at local restraunts and Walmart and grocery stores right now than there are NNYers.
But yes it is cold as balls up here, and I hate it. I'll love it come spring time but I absolutely hate it right now.

I think what will be easiest for Roy, and the other commishes who might have to approve trades is send in confirmations for trades like this:
Lakers send Howard and Williams($36.72 million)
Cleveland sends Bynum and Irving($22.27 million)
Lakers salary $22.27 million...cap $99.3 million
Cleveland salary $40.61 million...cap $70.1 million
That way both GMs can check each others numbers and the likelihood of a mistake lessens.

Individual salaries probably help as well. This would be astounding if people actually did it though.

The Warriors are now open to deal. (I am grading online so I am easily distracted)

I can understand this.
I had two elite players but they don't play well together so I decided one had to go.
That I got rid of the older player with the obnoxious contract and still was able to pick up a top 4 PG, save $10 million and increase my late 4th rounder to a mid 3rd rounder was a bonus in my eyes, because as you said, I still wanted to add another elite player and was able to. At this stage, when you don't have a top 6-7 pick in the draft, that is huge.

I'd agree the onus should absolutely be on the individual GM's to keep track of their own cap number. Seems kind of important for this excercise.

I agree. It worked out well for both of us. I just couldn't have Kobe and Dwight on the same team. Someone had to go and I was going to get my best offers early, not late, so I pulled the trigger.
Lopez is actually a good match with Kobe.

Well Williams is a coach killing malcontent but I don't know about under performing a max contract to the extent you mentioned. Eddy Curry, Gilbert Arenas, Rasheed Lewis might fit better into that argument.

I'm guessing Kyrie must have the best production (however you want to quantify that) per dollar this season.
I think I've come to accept he is already a near super-star in this league. I just can't continue to ignore the obvious.
Just really ticked me off how little he gave my Dukies his one season there.

This is why I think PER and other efficiency stats can be so flawed.
Let's face it the litmus test says Lopez isn't the best center in the league. He's playing healthy and efficient but Howard, Duncan, Noah, Aldridge, Horford, KG, and Chandler are clearly better and Pekovic, Jefferson, Munroe, both Gasols and Gortat might be on the same level as Lopez.
I think Lopez is definitely having a great year but, again, this is why I think PER can be so flawed.

Well, PER favors offensive efficiency more than anything, but there is something to be said for efficiency. If you look at the SIMPLE Rating (based off production vs opposing player production on the floor, coupled with on/off the court plus-minus), Lopez is still the second center on the list, only behind Tim Duncan.
This is obviously helped by the underrated team rebounding by the Nets, but still, bears mentioning.

Lets correct this. He isn't playing up to his standards he played in in previous years. He's still playing pretty well though. 16.7/7.8/3.3/41%/35%/85% for not having his best year is still dang good.

This might be the 1st time ever I have been much of a fan of PER. And, not that I should be giving this away, but basketball refernce tells a different story about Lopez.
In my opinion, he in the 2nd tier; behind Howard, KG, Duncan, Chandler, and equal to both Gasol's, Noah, Horford.
Not sure where to put Aldridge. How much time does he spend at center? Hasn't he been more effective at PF?

That 41/35 shooting percent mark is pretty fart-noisy to me. If you wanted to look at just the eastern conference PG's, based strictly on counting stat lines and FG%, Williams is pretty solidly behind Irving, LOwry, Holiday, Rondo, and Walker and Calderon.
Now I'm not saying it makes any sense to all those guys over Williams, just that Williams is still under performing while he's still mired in this shooting slump.
-
Aldridge has played some time at C these last two seasons, primarily in a small-ball lineup with an undersized/stretch PF (last year, Gerald Wallace and Nic Batum; this year, Luke Babbit).

I agree. He hasn't put up the best number since arriving at the cesspool that was NJ.
But he has been playing on nagging ankle injuries this year and if he can get past that, I think this year will be much better for him given his surrounding cast.
I think he needs an off season of resting and getting into the best shape he can to get back to where he should be because from some reports, he hasn't always done whatever he could to stay in the best shape.

He does remind me of one of those players that could just continue this downward trend and just become irrelevant. It was a year ago people still could mention him in the same breath as CP3 and now he's being looked at with a whole new tier of PGs
He could still come back and make it but he's a big question mark to me especially on his contract

I don't agree. His "inefficient" shooting numbers this year are as good as or better than Jrue Holiday, Russell Westbrook, Rajon Rondo, Ty Lawson, Brandon Jennings, and a ton others.
You guys are right that Williams isn't 1A with Chris Paul and Derrick Rose anymore because of a couple poor seasons, but I think he's bouncing back this year and is still pretty easily a top 5-6 PG in the league

You guys are right that Williams isn't 1A with Chris Paul and Derrick Rose anymore because of a couple poor seasons, but I think he's bouncing back this year and is still pretty easily a top 5-6 PG in the league
Paul
Rose
Rondo
Irving
Holiday
Curry
Westbrook
Parker

So I just finished my spreadsheet for this draft after not having one for the first time during the CB Draft.
Its got the 11 round draft with draft positions, all teams with owners listed, those teams keepers and/or current players, a list of every available player from the NBA this season, my roster with a salary cap breakdown, and a list of what I think are the top available 20 players at each position.
If you don't have one I'm more than willing to email this to you.

He does remind me of one of those players that could just continue this downward trend and just become irrelevant. It was a year ago people still could mention him in the same breath as CP3 and now he's being looked at with a whole new tier of PGs
He could still come back and make it but he's a big question mark to me especially on his contract
Ya, this is how I feel about him too. Just a gut feeling, but I had him as an undraftable player.

You don't agree that I didn't feel good about Deron Williams coming into the draft?
GET OUT OF MY HEAD, DEMON!!
(Kidding, I just love when replies syntax don't really make sense)
But, I stand by Rondo and Holiday having better seasons.
Westbrook V Rondo:
http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/pcm_finder.cgi?request=1&sum=0&p1=rondora01&y1=2013&p2=willide01&y2=2013
Rondo's FG% is higher, his assist to turnover is better, his rebounding is better. His TS% is lower however, so there's that.
Jrue is much closer, but his FG% and 3pt% numbers are better, he's scoring more per 36 and shooting better despite a much more demanding role on his team than Williams's, and defense is undeniably better. His assists are also higher. Williams has him in turnovers and TS%, but the TS% at least is a product of his free throw shooting.
I'm not saying Williams is having an abjectly bad year. I'm saying his year is a far cry from elite.

So that you new guys know, it is an unwritten rule during these drafts not to talk about players that haven't been drafted or picked.
I mean talk about Deron Williams or Kevin Durant or Kyrie Irving or Josh Smith all you want. They have been picked. But until they've been picked, we try our hardest not to talk about the other players.
-
So that you new guys know, it is an unwritten rule during these drafts not to talk about players that haven't been drafted or picked.
Fair enough, makes sense.
I could easily see people trying to intentionally play down a players value to cause them to fall in the draft. Or on the other hand, talk up a players value, tricking someone else into drafting a player too soon.
A little underhanded I suppose.

The tricky thing about playing down a player's value is that eventually, you might end up having to defend them. So if you play down a player's value (like for instance, if this draft were competitive, and I faced the Sixers in the first round of the playoffs with a team built around Kyrie Irving as its best player, I'd be pretty screwed.*
*For those new or forgetful, I dramatically played up Jrue Holiday's seemingly superman-like ability to defend Kyrie Irving this past summer in the CB Draft.

You know last year I had Cleveland and picked Kyrie and Varejao and at the time, AV just went down for the season, but Cleveland had no one else worth picking.
Its not easy having a team where one of your picked players isn't even amongst the top 60 players in the league. You start off with a fairly decent handicap. For that reason I am not a big fan of the salary cap since many of these teams that have less than stellar second players also have the lowest cap to work with.
Then again this isn't a competitive exercise but still, it makes it tougher for 6-8 teams in the league.

Sent it out. The top players at each position aren't exactly where I would place all of them, but I couldn't send out all my secrets. For instance, I don't rate the center I have rated 4th that high. There's a bunch others like that but for the most part I think those players are amongst the best at their position

Or should we just add it to the rules?

I'm a hundred percent sincere on Thompson. I think he's got a real chance at being a 16 and 10 guy on a good team, dirty-work kinda guy. I don't think he's got a chance to be a top 3 positional guy or anything, at least without a jumpshot that gets above 40% from 15 feet.
But look at this:

You're new at this, so let's say its a rule. Try not to mention undrafted players. It might seem silly, but if you've got your eye on a guy, and someone else mentions the guy right before your pick, and the guy in front of you snags him, that'll get you hot.
Trust me, it sucks.

Not to mention the stats being compared have no context. Faried is on a contender doing what he is doing, Thompson is on one of the worst teams in the league. Faried is one of the more limited offensive players and worse defensive players in the league and yet Thompson numbers are worse in those areas.
They are both young and have time to develop but I think Thompson is getting a bit of hype here. Big numbers on a bad team doesn't always equate to the same thing when put on good teams. There's a bunch of players that can attest to that.
The numbers are close though.

Absolutely fair. Its too early to give the verdict on either guy, and caution is completely warranted when giving praise to any player on a rebuilding team.
The stats also don't really tell the whole story for Thompson there though either. If you look at how he's stepped up after (undrafted player) went down, his numbers are actually better scoring-wise (52.6% from the field, 55.5 TS%, 14.9 pts).
Thompson is getting his points through hustle, tough offensive rebounding, and elite level finishing around the rim. His defense and rebounding are both looking very, very good considering his age, and there is cause to think it can get better.
That's why I'm optimistic. He's finally caught his wave, so now he's riding it. That's why I'm hopeful. Can he do it on a contender? Who knows.

I think the third round is a bit too late. If it went down like that..yikes. He's got the 14th best rebounding rate among 4's, 15th best PER among starting 4's, and the 15th best EWA among all power forwards. And that's factoring in his entire year, which started pretty slow. If a guy who is getting 15 and 10 over the last 2 months makes it to the 3rd round (which is really the 5th round), we're all doing something wrong.

Then again this isn't a competitive exercise but still, it makes it tougher for 6-8 teams in the league.
At the same time, I think it gives teams another option.
Let's use IP as an example:
He's got one superstar, one young player, and a pick in each round that probably prevents him from getting another elite player by traditional means.
An option for him is to build around Irving and keep his salary number down for the future. Salary gives him another way to 'win' the exercise.

For that reason I am not a big fan of the salary cap since many of these teams that have less than stellar second players also have the lowest cap to work with.
Then again this isn't a competitive exercise but still, it makes it tougher for 6-8 teams in the league.
At the same time, I think it gives teams another option.
Let's use IP as an example:
He's got one superstar, one young player, and a pick in each round that probably prevents him from getting another elite player by traditional means.
An option for him is to build around Irving and keep his salary number down for the future. Salary gives him another way to 'win' the exercise.
WEnt out, got Andrew Bynum. Shoot for the moon, you'll land among the stars.

So that you new guys know, it is an unwritten rule during these drafts not to talk about players that haven't been drafted or picked.
Fair enough, makes sense.
I could easily see people trying to intentionally play down a players value to cause them to fall in the draft. Or on the other hand, talk up a players value, tricking someone else into drafting a player too soon.
A little underhanded I suppose.
The tricky thing about playing down a player's value is that eventually, you might end up having to defend them. So if you play down a player's value (like for instance, if this draft were competitive, and I faced the Sixers in the first round of the playoffs with a team built around Kyrie Irving as its best player, I'd be pretty screwed.*
*For those new or forgetful, I dramatically played up Jrue Holiday's seemingly superman-like ability to defend Kyrie Irving this past summer in the CB Draft.
Then you better hold on to Tristian Thompson....
I'm a hundred percent sincere on Thompson. I think he's got a real chance at being a 16 and 10 guy on a good team, dirty-work kinda guy. I don't think he's got a chance to be a top 3 positional guy or anything, at least without a jumpshot that gets above 40% from 15 feet.
But look at this:
http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/pcm_finder.cgi?request=1&sum=0&p1=thomptr01&y1=2013&p2=farieke01&y2=2013
Pretty close.
Very close but Faried has the FG% and an image of a workhouse and a flat out animal that puts him further over the top
Not to mention the stats being compared have no context. Faried is on a contender doing what he is doing, Thompson is on one of the worst teams in the league. Faried is one of the more limited offensive players and worse defensive players in the league and yet Thompson numbers are worse in those areas.
They are both young and have time to develop but I think Thompson is getting a bit of Jeff Green hype here. Big numbers on a bad team doesn't always equate to the same thing when put on good teams.
The numbers are close though.
Absolutely fair. Its too early to give the verdict on either guy, and caution is completely warranted when giving praise to any player on a rebuilding team.
The stats also don't really tell the whole story for Thompson there though either. If you look at how he's stepped up after (undrafted player) went down, his numbers are actually better scoring-wise (52.6% from the field, 55.5 TS%, 14.9 pts).
Thompson is getting his points through hustle, tough offensive rebounding, and elite level finishing around the rim. His defense and rebounding are both looking very, very good considering his age, and there is cause to think it can get better.
That's why I'm optimistic. He's finally caught his wave, so now he's riding it. That's why I'm hopeful. Can he do it on a contender? Who knows.
I love the way he has picked up his game since (undrafted player) went down. Very impressive.
I feel for you IP because if you didn't have to pick him, and given the state of the Cleveland team, you really did HAVE to pick him, he probably doesn't get picked until the 3rd round or later here.
I think the third round is a bit too late. If it went down like that..yikes. He's got the 14th best rebounding rate among 4's, 15th best PER among starting 4's, and the 15th best EWA among all power forwards. And that's factoring in his entire year, which started pretty slow. If a guy who is getting 15 and 10 over the last 2 months makes it to the 3rd round (which is really the 5th round), we're all doing something wrong.
So statistically, he's what you would consider around the 15th best PF. Let's be real. He isn't.
Still let's say he is.
Top 15 players at each position X 5 positions = 75 players.
Only 56 can be saved. Of those 56 there's probably 10 minimum(not including Thompson) that don't belong in the top 75 players.
That means 46 of the top 75 players were chosen leaving 29. If all those players are chosen ahead of Thompson, like they should be, then the best Thompson should be drafted would be top of the 2nd round.
I don't see that.
Name recognition, age, lack of experience, lack of decent sample size of quality performance,and horrible offensive inefficiency probably make him more what I thought: a 3rd rounder at best.
Now, if he does this the rest of the year and into next, I'll buy he's a top 100 or so player.

Horrible offensive inefficiency? Based on what kimosbe?
-
I got 33 guys ahead of Thompson at PF
I would have 25 ahead of him, another 5-6 on the exact same level as Thompson.
-
Horrible offensive inefficiency? Based on what kimosbe?
How about a TS% below 50% for his career before that guy that got hurt went down? How about a FG% below 46% before that guy went down? How about a career FT% of 60%?
Anyone else want to label that horrible offensive efficiency for a 6'9" PF? He's a PF that takes nearly 10 shots a game to average 11 points!!!

I have Thompson as a liability as a starting PF in all but a few situations, or, as a middle of the pack backup PF if used off the bench.
I don't think Thompson would play well with Bynum. His scoring numbers have gone up lately because he plays with a jump-shooting center freeing up space in the paint for Thompson as a finisher. Take away that space and make him play more time 10-15 feet from the basket and his scoring efficiency will go back down again. Spacing is going to be difficult for the team as a whole with those two on the floor together.
I would bench him (15mpg backup) or trade him.

Yeah, I wasn't even considering what having others around him would do to his play. I agree that he isn't a good match with Bynum. He would match up much better with a KG type, strong inside defensively but a stretch big on offense.
I was actually discussing a trade for a young PF that rebounds well and has mostly inside offensive game and then considered he probably would be a bad match for Howard and pulled out.
Although, having Irving, one of the two or three best overall shooters in the game, as a PG really mitigates having to have a stretch 4 next to Bynum for spacing, as defenses would have to guard against Irving walking up and taking a bunch of open jumpers if they closed in on the bigs. Its possible to have two down low offensive guys if you have good shooters in your three other positions and Irving at PG is probably the best shooting PG you can find.

Okay let me add those games back in. Thompson's career stats, even those games where his team demanded him to step up and perform, because Lord knows the Cavs weren't expecting him to step up and perform before someone got hurt, are:
47% FG%
0% 3PT%
59.9% FT%
50.1% TS%
Sorry people, I didn't mean to mislead you into thinking his offense was as bad as I stated. It's a miniscule better than I let on.
-

You're right. We have already dissected Deron Williams and Tristan Thompson. Let's talk about Josh Smith and all his limitations.... ;D
Besides, if we talk about IP's team now, its just that much less we have to do it later, hopefully ;) :D

In fairness, with young guys it doesn't always make a lot of sense to look at career numbers.
Thompson gets credit for his recent play. He's been producing pretty well, and his team has actually won more games with Zeller starting than it did with Varejao. That's partially because Thompson has stepped up.
(That's the last nice thing I say about IP's team this year, unless it's to pimp Kyrie.)

Very true.
And again, this just goes back to defending what I thought was an innocuous claim that Thompson was a third rounder in this draft. I actually think he has a very good upside, like a certain rookie on the Celtics that will go un-named. I just don't think right now, he's great or his offense is that good.
And BTW, there's no malice here, just stating what I think.

Why is IP getting so much hate this draft? :o
Perfect storm, really.
Two controversial picks - Bynum, who is a huge physical specimen. A great post defender, and he's offensively intelligent in that he knows his offensive limitations (he smartly always runs right to the tin in transition and aside from an occasional 3 pt attempt, generally sticks to what he's good at). On the other hand, he's injury prone and there's some evidence to support the fact that Bynum really just doesn't care much.
Thompsons one of those guys where the eye says one thing, and the stats say another. The stats support that he's a really good young player, but the eyes see someone who looks like he sucks (and might be getting numbers just being on a bad team).
And on top of that IP's a great politician. So I think some people are probably being proactive before the IP spin machine starts throwing out statistical links that I never click on.

Well, Id say he had a tough rookie season adapting as a big man to the NBA game (like just about all big men), and is starting to show his promise this year. And this year, over 53 games and an admittedly slow start, he's got a better true shooting % than LaMarcus Aldridge.

I think right now, the most interesting thing I'm looking forward to seeing how it plays out is Rondo's Hawks.
I mean, THREE 1st round picks? How does that even happen?

On the earlier discussion of Deron Williams ...
Deron Williams has been playing better as of late. His scoring efficiency is up around 58% since the New Year (20 games). Well above average mark. Deron got off to a bad start but it looks like things are at least trending upwards for him.
I think there is another bump Deron's game (offensively) could see with a better coaching staff and a more skilled power forward offensively alongside Brook Lopez.

Well, I can't speak for everyone, but I can quote David Thorpe:
Tristan Thompson, Cavaliers | Sophomore
TT is quietly putting together a nice Most Improved Player campaign. He is learning how to finish shots, making free throws better, and playing like the athlete he was in college. He has the talent to be one of the league's top rebounders and a double-double guy for the next eight seasons. He should also be a plus defender, capable of guarding either big position as well as stretch 4s, thanks to his agility.
That was under 'Likely to make one or more all-star game', with Damian Lillard, Bradley Beal, and a player not yet selected. (The only players above are Kyrie, Anthony Davis, and Andre Drummond)

I really like Tristan Thompson's defensive potential.
Great blend of size, strength, quickness, agility and leaping ability. Physical talent is extremely impressive. Shows a strong comfort level defending face up bigs and perimeter bigs as well as the capacity to defend physical forwards in the post. Impressive range in the different types of forwards he can cover defensively.
As he gets more experience, he has a chance to become a really special defensive player.

Me either, but I do think at least this elevates him above 'the eye test says he sucks', no?
Well at least I'm assuming David Thorpe has watched more Tristan Thompson than either of us. I might be wrong.

Im really debating something so i have to ask what is the value(round-wise first, second etc.) of someone who scores 18 ppg but shoots .401%(17 shots a game and 4.6 free throws a game to get 18) and .232 3P% and earns $11 million an year?

Late first, early 2nd ... maybe a little higher to a team who needs an extra scorer badly.

The truth is probably somewhere in between.
I really just don't care for his skillset, and I'm always wary of these undersized, wiry, athletic guys. Feels like there's just been SO many of them that have shown flashes without ever becoming truly effective.

Good defender and rebounder at PG position. Liability at SG. Good passer for SG. Dodgy one for PG. 6-3 with elite athleticism.
If you can put Monta in a situation where you can minimize his negatives and optimize his strengths, he is a very valuable player. He could be really good for a few teams.

Im really debating something so i have to ask what is the value(round-wise first, second etc.) of someone who scores 18 ppg but shoots .401%(17 shots a game and 4.6 free throws a game to get 18) and .232 3P% and earns $11 million an year?

I think late first early second is good value.
On the right team, I think he could make sense even a bit higher in the first round. Probably be overpaying a bit but it could still work out well.

Someone that can
(1) Allow Monta to defend the PG position
(2) Work around his lack of PG skills offensively. Most likely either by coupling him with a big PG (who can defend SGs) or a playmaking wing (who can share ball-handling and playmaking responsibilities).
Need both elements to make Monta work at a high level.
Otherwise, Monta is best as a sixth man combo guard type.
-
I'm contemplating moving TP and TD. I'll listen to offers, but I'd need multiple picks, coupled with a young guy on a small contract.

Jrue Holiday seems like a fit.

I'm inclined to believe for Monta to be at his best, he needs to be a PG again. Put him next to a SG who plays D and is a solid spot up shooter.

Me either, but I do think at least this elevates him above 'the eye test says he sucks', no?
The truth is probably somewhere in between.
I really just don't care for his skillset, and I'm always wary of these undersized, wiry, athletic guys. Feels like there's just been SO many of them that have shown flashes without ever becoming truly effective.
Yeah, Im not so sure about that. I wonder which guys youre talking about. There is the baby-eater in the central conference, but his body type isn't really all that similar to thompsons. There is the pogo-stick 4/5 in Canada, but he's playing pretty well right now. There is the 3/4 in the Atlantic who is actually a 4 that I played this summer, but he's smaller than Thompson, and he's been very effective.
I guess Im not really sure who you're talking about.

Monta could do a good Wade impersonation in Miami too.
Bonus points if Miami could couple Monta (PG) and LeBron (SF) with a good ball-handling, passing and jump-shooting two guard. That guy in Orlando would be perfect.

Avery Bradley would be a really good compliment for Monta.

Yes, but combo guards are 6th men types usually. I'm inlcined to believe Monta is still a capable enough passer to be a full-time PG if he had a wing who can create his own offense.
I'm not so sure Monta would be too accpeting of a bench role.

New GM's don't have experience, so it's harder for them to evaluate trade value. Why not go public before making a trade to gain other GM's attention?
It's far preferable to the silent ripoffs we've seen in the past.

I guess, from my perspective, there is a certain way to go about it.
Saying "player XYZ is on the block" or "Player XZY is close to being moved" is one thing.
Naming destinations is different. Specifying assets is way out of bounds, except if both parties are ok with it, and the GM's really are novices and have little idea of how this works.
Again, just my opinion, and how I prefer to deal. I don't like giving up my hand easily.

Ha, ya. It makes sense to go public, doesn't mean I'm thrilled that someone did.
That being said, if everyone went public on 'interests' I think you might find out that more than anything I like to do my due dilligence on any 'on the block' player

Rumor: Ricky Rubio on the block? ???

I prefer the gm just mentions who's on the block and doesn't discuss deals on the board before they go through.

Due to multiple negative reactions, I apologize for revealing a little too much in my rumors about possible trades. I'll keep it much more private next time. Again, sorry to the other GMs of the teams mentioned in my posts.

Maybe in the future before you're going to pull the trigger on a trade you say "Sources say Tim Duncan very close to being moved" to get any last second offers in it.

See, that sounds like the perfect compromise to me.
Gives everyone a little "tease", possibly gets you a better value for your assets, but doesn't put the other party's business out for everyone to see.

I'm more curious as to what direction the Spurs go with parker and bradley and two later firsts
-
Also, per Andrew Bynum, and alleged 'hate', keep hatin, haters. Bynum pulled down 18 and 12 last year, clearly the second best center in basketball. Yes, he's been injured this season, but my main building block is Kyrie Irving, a young man who at a tender age of 21 is barely scratching the surface of his talent. I'm not just playing for this season, I'm playing for the future as well. So I've of the opportunity to buy low on a 25 year old center who is locked up long term, to pair with my 21 year old all-star and my 22 year old 15 and 10 power forward.
So I guess Im not really sure where the hate comes into it. 18 and 12, 60 TS%, already got an allstar appearance. Even if he doesn't play a game til next season (which will not be the case, I believe he'll be playing by the end of the month), how is it not a no-brainer to acquire him?

Because of his injury history, I rank him squarely behind howard and M. Gasol with Monroe flying up the ranks behind him.

Yea, for me, I worry about Boston's third piece. I don't think they'll see the talent they need in the 2nd to cement themselves as contenders.

There's been a lot of talk about contenders already for a game with no way to win.
And besides, it's not as if the games we have that people can actually win are based in reality, if they were SO would be spending all our time crowing instead of simply feeling intellectually superior to you all.

Also, per Andrew Bynum, and alleged 'hate', keep hatin, haters. Bynum pulled down 18 and 12 last year, clearly the second best center in basketball. Yes, he's been injured this season, but my main building block is Kyrie Irving, a young man who at a tender age of 21 is barely scratching the surface of his talent. I'm not just playing for this season, I'm playing for the future as well. So I've of the opportunity to buy low on a 25 year old center who is locked up long term, to pair with my 21 year old all-star and my 22 year old 15 and 10 power forward.
So I guess Im not really sure where the hate comes into it. 18 and 12, 60 TS%, already got an allstar appearance. Even if he doesn't play a game til next season (which will not be the case, I believe he'll be playing by the end of the month), how is it not a no-brainer to acquire him?
Because, what if he comes back next season and gets injured again? That's the trend.
Or what if he spends his summer bonus on the new Cool Ranch Tacos and comes back 200 pounds heavier? You're telling me you don't think this guy could be the next Eddy Curry? I had 3 guys listed as undraftable, he's one of them.
If you're building for the future, why not just keep the injured center you have already? At least that guy has a clear passion for the game, and a much improved offensive game before he went down.

once IP shows who Tony Parker was traded for ill be heading off to bed i just have a feeling this is going to be good

Because of his injury history, I rank him squarely behind howard and M. Gasol with Monroe flying up the ranks behind him.
Howard has his own ball of angst and injuries, but putting that besides the point, I wouldn't contest someone wanting him or M Gasol over Bynum because of the injuries.
But healthy, as he was last season, Bynum is the better player over the entire crop, absent Howard.

Boston is up for a one and done but thats only if they can fill their roster up with some decent players which will be hard

Last minute trade talks before tomorrow's draft? If anybody's interested. I'm looking for some distraction.
Listening to offers for both Orange Juice Mayonnaise and Dirty Dirk.

A local Washington beat reporter just tweeted that Wall's locker has been emptied. Stay tuned for more.

Wow im amazed by this, Jrue is a better defender better overall player is earning $3 million less than Wall and theyre the same age :o

Ok, well Spurs roster at least makes some sense now.
Wall and Bradley is an interesting combo to build around.
The top 2 recruits coming out of HS a few years back.
-
Trade confirmed:
Spurs send: Tim Duncan, 2.28, 4.28
to
Celtics for: Avery Bradley, 1.20, 5.20
Imagine Tim Duncan and Garnett playing together in real life...
I love KG and Duncan together but Boston only has two late 2nd rounders now, don't they?
That is going to be a tough one to pull off.
It'll be fun. I didn't see how else to this. It's not as if with Bradley and Garnett I was going to be able to get an impact player at 1.20 to turn me into a contender.
Now, I put a middle finger up to the new NBA and work from this inside-out.
It might be doable. I think you need at least one high usage scorer with one of those two late second rounders. There should be a couple of guys who fit that bill available at that point.
It'll be tough balancing that perimeter defense and shot creation / dribble penetration. Most of the guys who will be there in the 2nd and 3rd are of the one-dimensional scorer/creator variety.
It certainly won't be dull trying to piece that together. Should be fun.
-
I hope you guys like playing against a full court press, cuz AB and Wall are pretty [dang] good at it.
I got those two, plus two firsts (albeit late ones). I'm building for the future, and the future looks bright.*
*I gotta get those two to get solid jumpers, or else the future's going to be full of bricks AND brightness.
-
I'm BOOOOOOORED
PM me about Monta (or to a lesser extent, Jennings).
-
Not wild about John Wall and Bradley together. It puts a lot of pressure on your frontcourt to supply jump-shooting. Limits one's options in terms of who you can slot alongside them.
I'd love to see Wall in a pick and roll centric offense surround by shooters. A nice four out one in offense. With his explosive quickness and dribble penetration, Wall would be a nightmare to contain.

Well it makes sense you have two 1st rounders but if im correct you have no 2nd rounders nor 3rd rounders, right? so thats kind of tough, im hoping youre going into an all out rebuilding mode as there is still some young gems

Two 1st rounders are better than one 2nd rounder and one 3rd rounder though. After round one, it's going to be tough to find quality starters.

Can someone do me a favor and put both the Wall trade and the Duncan trade in one post without the quote script? It's a PITA to do in my phone, and Indont want the trades to get lost in the shuffle.

For

I don't really follow this trade for Washington.
Gotta trade Beal, right?
High draft pick (8th I think) in the first round. Parker and a high pick is an interesting duo to build around. Swap Beal for something useful and they could have a nice team there.
I would've thought building around John Wall would've been a lot of fun though. Nice young player to build around.

I was actually set on going young in this draft, but the opportunity to get Parker was too good to pass up. He's arguably the most overlooked star in the league (look up his numbers this year, seriously), he's still only 30 and he's affordable. Couldn't say no to that.
Also, I'm looking to deal Beal aka Eric-Gordon-but-actually-healthy for a pick or a big man. Hit me up if you're interested.
-
I'm more curious as to what direction the Spurs go with parker and bradley and two later firsts
Gonna be tough to add a quality big man that late in the 1st round.
Yeah, that would be my main concern.

Still here looking to deal if anyone is interested... deals just havent worked out for me so far

Yeah, that would be my main concern.
I've got a quality big in mind who will definitely be available at the end of the first round.
I'll probably get a swing man with the other first. I have two or three in mind.
Then, I can find a stretch four in the fifth round. There's plenty to choose from in the NBA.
I'm rebuilding, looking for small contracts, but also guys who can be future assets based on development.

It's possible, but gonna take a little luck and wise drafting with those 2 late 1st's.

Also, per Andrew Bynum, and alleged 'hate', keep hatin, haters. Bynum pulled down 18 and 12 last year, clearly the second best center in basketball. Yes, he's been injured this season, but my main building block is Kyrie Irving, a young man who at a tender age of 21 is barely scratching the surface of his talent. I'm not just playing for this season, I'm playing for the future as well. So I've of the opportunity to buy low on a 25 year old center who is locked up long term, to pair with my 21 year old all-star and my 22 year old 15 and 10 power forward.
So I guess Im not really sure where the hate comes into it. 18 and 12, 60 TS%, already got an allstar appearance. Even if he doesn't play a game til next season (which will not be the case, I believe he'll be playing by the end of the month), how is it not a no-brainer to acquire him?
Because, what if he comes back next season and gets injured again? That's the trend.
Or what if he spends his summer bonus on the new Cool Ranch Tacos and comes back 200 pounds heavier? You're telling me you don't think this guy could be the next Eddy Curry? I had 3 guys listed as undraftable, he's one of them.
If you're building for the future, why not just keep the injured center you have already? At least that guy has a clear passion for the game, and a much improved offensive game before he went down.
The guy I had before was a tad bit overrated. He's already 30, with his own extensive injury rap sheet, and nowhere near the dominating force Bynum is.
Because that's what Bynum is. Offensively he's the most dominating center in basketball.
And Bynum's love of the game has served him pretty well thusfar. Sure, maybe he's not KG or anything, but remember, he played with Kobe, and Kobe sucks the fun out of everything.
So if he gets injured, that sucks. True, it could happen with anyone (Dwight Howard, for instance, is about as healthy as an asbestos sandwich the past 2 seasons), but it has been a disturbing pattern up until last year, and resurfaced this year. So if he shows up out of shape, that sucks. But a lot of guys show up out of shape that can be turned around. Shaq, for one. Paul Pierce, for another.
But if he's remotely healthy, if he's remotely healthy around the playoffs, I've got the best young center in basketball, the best young PG in basketball, and a promising hustle monster at the 4.
Like I said, he was, based on performance alone, the second best center in basketball last year, and the most dominant offensive center in the league. And he's supposed to be back by the end of the month. Maybe. Probably. Maybe.

Yeah, it wouldn't be as good as that Detroit team but doing something along those same lines ... I think would give Philly their strongest squad.
There won't be much offense available by the time Philly picks so going heavily into a defense first model, I think that is their best play.
A wing scorer. A defensive center. A defensive stopper / shooter on wing.
Beat teams up with your defense and athleticism.

Great deal for Washington. I wasn't sure they'd be able to get a first for Beal.
A really good one at #12 too. So Washington has #8 and #12 in the first round to put two stars around Tony Parker. That is a very good base to build around. They have really improved their team.

I'm not sure it was ever all that valuable to begin with. Aside from a smattering of teams with 3 valid keepers, this is for all intensive purposes the third round.
Of course I say that now, but tomorrow will be pure torture without a pick.

Even with two relatively early picks, it's still scary how scarce the supply of good big men is. Everybody is either taken, injured or flawed.
-
I'm not liking these late hour trades AT ALL!
I agree with Who, my 1.13 is now not looking like such a hot pick. I have a feeling I'm going to have to re-assess my draft strategy (which really irks me seeing as I just spent the last hour or so finishing my rankings).
Denver sending a 1st for Beal, and Philly dealing 2 1st's for Smith earlier today is gonna make getting a 2nd big to go with Lopez difficult.
-
Whew! I just realized there's an hour an 40 minute gap for lunch break between the 12th pick and mine.
Fairly lucky for me. Should give me plenty of time to either make my pick or deal it for something.

Why again is it that people dont like the first round anymore? I see no way that the trades have this much of an effect on the players available at each spot
-

It's not that people 'don't like' the first round, I think it's more that people are seeing that the likeliest BPA's aren't going to be the cornerstones they'd want to set themselves apart. There is a distinct tier of players after the initial barrage of talent from the few teams with 3 all-star caliber players. There will be some cornerstone talent off the bat, then it'll fall into fringe all-stars, then solid starters and elite prospects (think Marcin Gortat for starters and Derrick Favors for prospects). That'll be how it plays out.
Not that there aren't good or great players in the pool. Just that there are a few big fish, a good amount of above average fish, then lots and lots of average fish.

Agreed. Too much for Beal. But, Denver now has Lawson/Beal/?/Faried/?, which has the makings of a decent up and coming squad.
Eh, I really like Beal a lot and he's on a cheap contract. I thought that's the right value.
Really depends on how the round shakes out but I think it was a little to high in the 1st round.
I can see Beal having 1st round value. Talented shooter on a rookie deal with star potential.

The two Spurs trades are voided as of right now.
Unless I missed something, they don't own the 28th pick in the round, so they can't convey the 2.28, 3.28, or 4.28.
REMINDER: PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU OWN THE DRAFT PICKS YOU'RE SENDING!!!
-
I don't understand the direction San Antonio took. Why draft a "win now" team so early, only to blow it up?
I'm not sure, but they might've realized they made a mistake going 'win now' when it'll be so challenging to draft 26th overall in each round.
I was awfully close to blowing up my 'win now team,' and had this opportunity not presented itself would've.
-
I haven't seen much of Beal yet. I don't know what to make of him.
Washington have been so ugly to watch this year. I'll try to catch a few of their games now that John Wall is back. That team should be at least somewhat watchable now.

It is meant to be the 26th pick. The Spurs noted the mistake late last night.
They were thinking of a 30 team league instead of a 28th team league. So 30-2 = 28 instead of 28-2 = 26. The Spurs highlighted their mistake after IP posted the trade.
Trade confirmed:
Spurs send: Tim Duncan, 2.28, 4.28
to
Celtics for: Avery Bradley, 1.20, 5.20
Trade Confirmed:
Spurs Trade: Tony Parker, 3.28
For
Wizards Trade: John Wall
Sorry guys, I had the 26 pick in the draft. I was think 30-2 rather than 28-2. My bad.
This is what it SHOULD look like:
Trade confirmed:
Spurs send: Tim Duncan, 2.26, 4.26
to
Celtics for: Avery Bradley, 1.20, 5.20

Well, I was in a win-now mode, until I was looking through my spreadsheet of BPA available (I picked 26th every round) and I realized, "Wow, Parker + Duncan + crap does not = championship."
It was a very tough decision, but in the end I decided that I liked Wall's and Bradley's defensive potential. I have two mid-to-late first rounders, so I should be able to pick up two young starting-caliber guys, and then I pick in the fifth round all the way to the thirteenth, just finding guys to fill out the roster.
I actually had a trade in place to acquire a better PG on a cheaper salary where it was Tony for that PG plus picks being exchanged. In the end, I declined because the picks I had weren't great, which would leave me with this:
PG better than Wall
Bradley
1 mid first, no second, no third, no fourth, then 26th the rest of the way
To me, that screams 14th in the lottery every year.
I didn't want that, so I decided to do a full-blown rebuild.

They've actually been pretty decent ever since Wall got back. Him and Beal are fun to watch.
Yeah, they've been above .500 since Wall came back. I have heard that Wall has had some really good performances in that period and has been playing some much improved defense.
I am looking forward to seeing that. Wall is still one of the most exciting prospects in the league today.
Definitely on my "to watch" list.

Can't wait for this to start!

Since Wall and their best big man came back they've apparently been playing top 5 level defense.
Which is really surprising to me.
-
recently beals shooting numbers have made a significant jump with the return of wall and I think lawson offers some of the same skills that help beal out.
Without his jump in numbers I wouldnt have pulled the trigger on the deal but now it gives me three young guys that can really play

Not that I agree with this, but ESPN was crowning Wall with multiple DPOYs before he was drafted.
It had been well-documented that Wall was a very good defender in both HS and college.

Sweet!! Dwyane Wade is still on the board. ;)

Not sure if Roy is here, so I'm going to make the decision.

Meaning Edgar has until 10:10 to make a selection

I assume what Edgar's saying is that Derek Rose is SUCH a talent that he doesn't care that he's out this season, and he'll be moving on with him in the future.
Favors-Jefferson-Rose is a mean core going forward.

OK just got it and read thru the latest developments.
Still don't quite get a few of the trades last night, oh well.
Batum was drafted too early in my opinion, but he's solid.
Dallas is STRONG. Mayo, Pierce & Dirk is a strong core.
Rose was a good pick, I agree with the idea of looking past just this season.

Also, the Ibaka pick was really good too. Ibaka was easily the cheapest PF available that has talent.
Good selection for a young team

I am going to be outside with my kids for the next 30 minutes. I will be back in time for my pick.
Feel free to send trade offers during the time between now and the pick. Everything is on the table.

Just to note, my 1st round pick may or may not be up for grabs.
PM me if you have a reasonable offer. Either way, I likely won't make a decision until after the 1st half of today's draft is completed. Somehow I lucked into being the first selection after the break in each round.

Sactown picked Rondo.
-
I take Rondo
The talent is there, but I feel sorry for whoever is going to coach this team.
Hey, atleast the winning mentality is there too.
-
David Lee
Nice. Very good pickup.
Thank you. Was very torn between him and another player, but Lee is just having such a great season.
Improves my team shooting% quite a bit too.
I think your team is in a pretty good place. If you can switch out Monta Ellis for a better fitting wing player and acquire a solid defensive center to play alongside D.Lee, you'll have a very nice four man core to build around.
Should be a much improved Bucks team.
-
I take Rondo
I like Rondo and Cousins together. Need to move Tyreke.
-
I'm going to reach a little bit and take Nikola Pekovic.
There are a couple of other bigs that I like better from a pure talent standpoint, but they all come with injury concerns. I'll go with the healthy guy.
-

Not a bad pick IMO, but it is quite of a reach.
I have one in mind that I think is way better on both sides of the floor than Mt. Pek. But he's not bad. Cheap contract too.

Just as importantly, I love his fit with somebody I have in mind for the 12th pick. I'm just praying that he stays on the board until then.

I did not going into this thinking I would get Batum and Paul Millsap, but im pretty stoked.
Hawks take Paul Millsap

Millsap was hard to turn down with my pick. The only reason I passed on him is because I wanted a center.
Great pick though, probably the best talent available.
-

Should have taken the other big. Next to Horford, your front line would have been unstoppable. 8)

I don't know if this is a coincidence, but both Millsap and Batum were in other forum posts on the "Latest Forum Topics" section on the right -> I wonder if this is a coincidence, or people trying to trick others >:D

Ha, I have 15 minutes mulling over four guys, I'm going to milk this. Sorry.

You last two guys just made my list by taking Pek and Millsapp.

I think it's a small reach. I think Pekovic would have gone in the next 5-10 picks.
I know he is one of my backup options at 14. With the shortage of centers available, I presume Pekovic is pretty high on some other people's lists too.

Yup. Your team is moneyball. I love it. Well done moving Smith for picks- he didn't fit

Iggy would've been great on your Brooklyn team alongside Kobe and Brook.
Iggy was one of the guys near the top of my shortlist if I took Brooklyn -- it was between Brooklyn and New Orleans. Decided to go with the younger team instead.

Best wing available, in my opinion. Excellent player if he isn't asked to be the #1 scorer.

Yep. I missed on some scorers in Lee and Pierce (longshot anyways), might as well just lockdown the court.
This team may not score, but it sure as heck wont let the others as well.
-
Extremely solid drafting thus far. Not all the players chosen probably deserved to be in the top 10 but I think we all know they would have been gone by pick 15 anyway.
-
Little sad seeing a traded pick go by... but hopefully it'll be worth it tomorrow
-
Monta Ellis and 3.6 both on the board, possibly as a package.
-
I take Rondo
Well we know which team is winning the 'tude award.
I know that we're not supposed to name names, but there is no way Ron Artest is ending up on any other team.

Great pick. Your team is going to be scoring a bunch.

Wizards are up, then we're on a break.
-
I am going to take Danilo Gallinari
Didn't expect him this high. Thought for sure he would be available late in the round.
Warriors are definitely going to be able to shoot the ball though.

Looking to trade a 2nd and 3rd for a 1st and 4th (as long as I see the guy I want)
-

Ya, I agree. Had a few guys ahead of him.
-
Quickly now, before I second-guess myself.
I'm taking Pau Gasol. I'm taking the chance that his decline this year has been related to nagging injuries and circus antics, and that he has a few more years of #2 scorer left in him.
-
Some nice picks so far. Like Pierce and Iggy in particular for their respective teams.
I love how this kind of draft leads to rosters that distill existing teams to their core and then either complement or accentuate their strengths. Makes this more fun than a from-scratch draft imo.
-

Parker, Gasol, and Pekovic isn't bad at all.

Given you started with Beal and Wall and ended up where you did, that's some highly effective team management.
I still think Pau has a couple very good years left in him.
-
I am going to take Danilo Gallinari
Great pick. Best SF on the board. Nice young player to go along with Klay and Steph.
-
Gasol and Danilo were Portland's 2 targets. Curse you all

I think his decline is mostly the system. I still think he's one of the most skilled big man in the game.
Very Good pick.

I thought so too. In all honesty I should have taken him 8th and Pek 12th, but I had a hunch that he'd still be there. Glad I was right, because my strategy was screwed if he was gone.

I was close.
But:

2) Injured
3) 20 million
4) Lakers can't find a taker in a trade.

Wondering why a trade I had made last night has not been confirmed yet?
-
I'm next on the board, but not due to pick until 1:30
PM me with offers for my pick, I'll be back in 20 minutes.
-
No real surprising picks at this point. A lot of teams are shaping up nicely

Willing to trade two third rounders to move up into the second. PM me if interested.

Minnesota sends: Ricky Rubio, 5.22
Dallas sends: 2.4, 4.4

Dallas desperately needs a rim protector if they want to contend.

Love the Rubio-Pierce-Nowitzki core. I'd move Mayo to a future team to try to get a late first round pick. Still some OK bigs out there.
-
Now that I have Rubio. Mayo become more expendable. PM me with offers for him before I head to work.

Yeah, that is a terrific trio to build around.
Very exciting trio with Rubio's passing combined with the shot-creation and shooting ability of Pierce and Nowitzki.
Not sure what I would do with Mayo. I suppose a defender is needed there to help Pierce and Dirk. Yeah, probably best off to trade Mayo.
-
Al check your pms. I'm offline now but Lucky is here.

Very fun team to watch but you gotta get some youth behind Pierce and Dirk

I can see some big division battles between our teams.
Marc Gasol + Zach Randolph vs. Kevin Garnett + Tim Duncan
Memphis can't wait for its first division title ;D

Still willing to listen to last minute offers for my upcoming pick.
Mulling over one potential offer currently. Without better offers, I'll probably make my pick shortly.

Alright, I'm willing to trade Pekovic for a first. Let me know. I'm going to want to make the deal right before you pick, because I need to make sure that a certain player stays on the board for me.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Nuts, I was hoping Kawhi would last til the 2nd round. I love his game.
Fantastic SF to put alongside Kobe and Brook. His defense, rebounding and three point shooting fit perfectly around their high usage / scoring skill-sets.

Actually, I am not sure Roy is shutting down the draft during the breaks, I think. So I think whoever owns the 13th pick, can pick after the 12th. Though I might be mistaken
-
Kawhi also makes a cool $1.81mil ;D
-
The Brooklyn Nets select Kawhi Leonard
My plan initially was to draft him at 1.16, but I knew secretly that I wouldn't, because its too early, and I would've drafted one of the most established but still young guys hangin' out, out there.
-
The Brooklyn Nets select Kawhi Leonard
Nuts, I was hoping Kawhi would last til the 2nd round. I love his game.
If he was there for us at 1.17, we'd definitely have taken him.
Nice pick for Brooklyn. Cost-effectiveness aside, he looks like a blossoming player in San Antonio.

Okay, well I am going the other way and taking one of the most expensive guys in the league.
Amare Stoudemire
I am really enjoying his much improved post game this year and think he'll form a nice 1-2 punch offensively with Eric Gordon and an exciting big man combo alongside Anthony Davis.
-
And with that, the Memphis Grizzlies are selecting Greivis Vasquez.

Sorry, guys. I'm going to need some time before the 1.17.
It's available. Might consider moving Lillard for a player at this point as well. Send me your PMs, I'll get to them as I can.

loving this pace!
But not as much commentary :(

I'll Keep the rapid fire picking going.
I'll be moving Batum to the SG position and Drafting Danny Granger
PG:
SG: Nic Batum
SF: Danny Granger
PF: Paul Millsap
C: Al Horford
Great pick. He's become very underrated in the last couple of years. Still a very good SF.

Reasoning behind Vasquez?

If anyone at the tail end of the first round wants to pick up picks message me I have my eye on someone...
-
Couple of interesting things. Dont like the 2 SF combo in Atlanta. I thought there were SGs and PGs available that would be better fits
Also, Grevais Vasquez? I understand the whole cap part of this exercise but Vasquez shouldnt have been selected this early based on talent.

loving this pace!
But not as much commentary :(
Reasoning behind Vasquez?
He's really cheap ($1,191,240) and has great stats (13.9ppg | 9.4apg | 4.6rpg) and can fill my PG void
-
Still can't believe the PF I had rated as the 4th best available is still there. I would have taken him myself, but didn't like the fit or cost.

I know who your talking about.
If I still had Duncan, he and this guy would be very effective. Not sure he would've fallen to 1.28, though.

2009-2010 Rondo (compared to Vasquez this year)
13.7 (13.9)/9.8 (9.4)/4.4 (4.6)
And that was the year he got his $44 million locked up for the next few years. This kid is MIP this season and is locked up for a couple more seasons.

Agreed -- Granger is an undervalued player nowadays. Very good SF.
I think Atlanta needs some passing now. To round out that starting unit. I am thinking either a classy facilitator who will move the ball, make good decisions and make sure everyone stays involved or more of a lower usage dribble drive / drive and kick type PG who can create some space for others to flourish with. Either one should work well with that lineup.
Heck, if they aren't available, you could probably put just about any PG on that team and they would be able to make it work. Having two skilled big men like Horford and Millsap gives Atlanta a lot of flexibility.

Depending on how much Rondo values perimeter D, there's a certain veteran PG that can shoot and pass that would fit perfectly with this team.

There are a couple of really exciting options for that Knicks team to add to Melo + Tyson.

Excellent pick. Delighted to see a skilled PF like David West alongside Aldridge and Lillard.
Fantastic fit. The high-low combo play of Aldridge + West and the pick and roll options with Lillard with both bigs, absolutely beautiful. The Blazers will be very difficult to defend against.

The Pacers select Steve Nash
Very smart. George and Hibbert can hide Nash's defensive shortcomings. On offense, a Nash-Hibbert PNR is great, and George spreads the floor, allowing Nash to drive.
Love that pick.

I completely did a double take when I saw David West's DRtg is 98.

Oh, you should have done that!
AK-47 and Tyson Chandler anchoring the defense. Their activity level as a team defenders. The amount of turnovers they would create. Interchangeability of Melo and Kirilenko at the two forward spots to pick which defensive matchups give you the most value.
That would have been beautiful. A sight to see (err, imagine).

Yeah, that's why it was the fun option. But Conley anchors my backcourt D and transition game, can check the great PGs out there a lot better than anyone likely to be around later, and is younger and cheaper to boot. Still feel he was the better pick overall.

I still dunno why Greivis was such a bad pick. I thought he fit well with my team.

Larry Sanders is very interesting. I am still not too sure what to make of him but he is very intriguing.
Sanders was on my shortlist at 1.14. One of probably about 5 big men I was considering. I liked the idea of Larry Sanders and Anthony Davis together patrolling the paint.

Leonard has a higher TS% and a substantially better DRtg, while only making a mil more.
Leonard's a good young player but playing in that Spurs system helps his advanced stats quite a bit. I'd say he's better than Parsons but he makes double the salary and isn't twice as good, even ignoring the respective team quality. Both great bargains in this setup though.
-
Still a couple of guys available that I want and would give up Pekovic for. If you need a guy to dish out a smackdown and haul in some boards, hit me up.
-
I have the last pick so ill wait til I get home around 530
Westbrook and the last pick are available for a legit PF or C
-
If your guy slipped I'm shopping 2.1 along with Dragic

KC is really milking this one.
KC takes chandler parsons.

Well, on the other side of the coin, Parsons' offensive numbers are likely inflated playing in that run and gun system they have down in Houston. Not too shabby getting to play off of Harden/Lin.
But yes, I agree both are excellent values by any measure.

woops

Well allmighy crotors are ready for next pick, keep in tune
P.S. Although i liked most f your picks when all i said and done we will be ready to reaceive our improved pg for the offseason while we kick behinds with our size and youth

Not actively shopping the 2(3) but if an offer blows me away it's possible I'll part ways with it.

Correct, False, False, Correct, False
Horford and Granger are both #1 options on their respective teams. Granger not this year due to injury, but still is the number one option. Front court is not undersized. Millsap and Horford are two of the best rebounders in the league at their respective positions.

The only way Danny Granger will ever be a #1 option again is if he's traded to Charlotte. Maybe Orlando/Phoenix too. But the ship has sailed on the George/Granger hierarchy.
I do like Horford/Millsap up front though.

Horford is undersized for a C, no way around that. Milsap is undersized for a PF, no way around that either. Both are good though.
Horford and Granger are both technically #1 options, but I don't like them as #1's. They are better as #2's.
Batum will get killed by SG's like Kobe, Wade, Harden, etc..

Atlanta would become my favorite team if either Batum or Granger were dealt for a legit starting guard option.
OJ Mayo on that team?

Batum has had success against Wade.
Two things that really bother Wade are length and quickness. That's why guys like Batum (long arms) and Bradley (great foot speed and recovery) are effective.
Batum could probably guard Kobe better than most, same for Harden.

Ya, I don't think there is any doubt Batum can defend the two guard spot. He has the quickness and his length would be a nightmare for most 2 guards.
Also, in this nba horford millsap is not undersized.

No really the reason is kind of combined. AB_Celtic had an exam during his pick Wednesday and wanted to move out of it. I wanted to move up in the 2nd as I have my eyes on a person I think will be there mid round but gone late round. air was just being an accommodating soul. many TPs to him.

I don't have much interest in assigning players to teams who sit on picks. The second round can open at 8am tomorrow.
Pretty sure my pick, as long as its before the first pick tomorrow, has a real time limit. Advantages of picking last ;D
-
I'm assuming by midnight he loses the pick?
No by midnight 2.1 can pick skipping 1.28
So I can pick 2.1 after midnight? Or does it have to be at 10:00am
See above. You can pick at 8am.
Is it 8am yet??
Does he lose his pick??

true, the only reason to rush the last pick is if someone else has been skipped and you can jump in before them to get someone you like. happens quite a bit as the game progresses usually

Ya which is good but I was at work and couldn't keep up with the picks throughout the day to make a decision.

Technically, he is a PF. Personally, I like him more as a SF.
Very useful for defending the likes of LeBron or Melo though.

He already has Durant to guard those guys though he could have Durant guard PFs and Young SFs.
Okay, maybe that is a bad idea.
I think Young a pretty decent PF but think he isn't a great fit for that team. Let's face it Durant and Westbrook need a facilitator who isn't a PG and they need rebounding defenders, cause they got the offense.

Anyone looking to move a bit down but still be in the 2nd round?

;)

Home after a long day at work. Down to talk trade anyone?

I'm down for trades if people want to make offers

Thad Young isnt a 3, he's been pretty bad there historically.

On offense, yeah he is's pretty brutal at SF. Defensively, he's very good at SF.
Thus his "tweener" status. Not worth a late first, that's for sure. And probaly a bad match with Durant.

I now have three early thirds (3.8, 3.12, 3.13)...
I will move any two of them for a mid-to-early second and fourth, or around there. An early second and fifth could also possibly do.

Although I am not sure about matching Tony Parker with Monta, I think Washington got nice value for Pek here.
And I like the new frontcourt for the Bucks: Lee and Pek.
Win-win?

if I didnt have the second i would consider this
reallly
but i need this one.. i know this was not supposed to be public but the offer is very likable.
for the record i never got a formal offer and i am talking right from the owner officer..
i will pick my picks and dont trade till later rounds
-
I haven't decided what I'm going to do with Ellis yet. I'm either going to use him as a supersub like Ginobili or OKC Harden, or I'm going to trade him again.
Either way, I decided that I goofed on the Pekovic pick and this is me trying to fix that situation. There are a few guys left on the board who I'd really like next to Gasol. If I can grab one of them, I'll have (more or less) saved my team. If not, then I'm hosed, haha.

Yeah, Pekovic should be good next to Lee.
Getting a solid defensive center for a the priviledge of splitting up the horrible duo of Jennings/Ellis is decent work.

Better load up on the outside with shooters because even if they miss, you still have two of the top 10 offensive rebounders in the game to get the misses.

Also I don't know if anyone noticed, but I now have 3.8.
3.6 didn't work for me, but 3.8 does. My 3.6 was right at the end of my midterm :P

For all the grief Howard has taken this year and about how off a year it has been for him, he still is:
Scoring 16.2 PPG while taking the second least shots per game in his career.
Leading the league in rebounds per game
Leading the league in defensive rebounds per game
Averaging a .578 FG% to place 4th in the league
Blocking 2.3 shots a game to place 5th in the league
All while recovering from back surgery and undergoing various nagging injuries caused by overcompensating for the not fully healed back.
Plus he's 27. He could well have a monster, league dominating second half of the year and beast into his normal 20PPG, 15 RPG, 3 BPG play in the playoffs.

A wise man once told me that there's no guarantee players will improve; with changes in their team, their attitude, or injuries, sometimes they plateau or even just regress for good. It's a good thing none of those apply to Dwight :P

Haha. Howard has battled nagging back injuries for two years now. He even said he'd sit out the year if it meant his health going forward. Injury prone, coach killing, willing to quit on his team of it means his payday next season... Oh it's all adding up.

Can anyone out there approve trades?

There are three guys that I am shocked are still available.
-
Warriors trade Thompson, 2.11, 8.11
Memphis trade Gasol, 3.15, 10.15
Confirmed.
That is really bad value for Marc Gasol. He is a terrific player.
It'll be hard for Memphis to recover from this deal.
I am excited to see what Golden State does with it's next pick. There is one guy there who has been slipping who would be fantastic for that team. Marc Gasol is a game-changer for Golden State. Opens up so many options.
Edit: Oh, I just realized GSW doesn't have a pick for awhile. My mistake. Still, a good three man core to build around.

On and off.
My suggestion if you are up against a deadline and no one is here to post it, pick the player for the other GM and then trade the player. (resend and updated trade agreement with the player)
-
for those of you I have offers out to, I'll be away from my computer for an hour or so but I'll try and get back to you before the round starts.
anybody else feel free to send me an offer. As always, everything is up for discussion.

Im very interested to see how todays draft goes. I have alot of value still left on the board, but usually this is where picks start surprising me. Will be interesting to see how salaries continue to effect things here.

I definitely think salary considerations will play a big part in this going forward. there's someone still on the board who's talent should have had him picked already but has a killer contract. There's at least 4-5 others that I would expect to go in this round based on talent but their contracts may keep them on the sidelines.

I think I know who you're talking about, and I'm wondering if that guy's contract is SO bad that he won't end up getting picked.

I like the pick, this is probably the right time for Boozer to come off the board. Contract doesnt necessarily match his production but still a very nice piece to have. Good floor spacer for Gortat.

I guess it makes sense for both teams - though there's a ton of young players I value a lot more than Thompson who should be available at 2.6

I guess it makes sense for both teams - though there's a ton of young players I value a lot more than Thompson who should be available at 2.6
For me it's about fit. I needed to compliment Bynum, not bind him up. Thompson is a great asset and one I was excited about, but it's a lot harder to find a floor spacing center than it is a floor spacing 4.

The Raptors Select:
JJ Hickson
Hate this pick.
I love it. I wanted J-squared :(
Empty numbers guy on a bad team. He also gets to boost his rebounding next to Aldridge and play offense with of all the space Aldridge give him.
He can work with the right PF/C rotation, but Ibaka isn't it. Especially since he's a FA this offseason.
-
There are three centers, who, despite having relatively large contracts, I'm shocked haven't been taken.
To be frank - had I known those guys would've been available at 1.20, I wouldn't have traded for Duncan.
Its funny, one of those guys seems to slip in every draft we do. And then when he gets picked he immediately becomes a targeted commodity.

Yeah, Hickson's a lot like a certain PF on our team who benefits from playing next to KG.
Both Hickson and said PF would be great as backups, though.

I think people's opinion of your team will be based on their thoughts of John Wall.
I really like him, and I think him and Bradley would terrorize opponents. So much defensive quickness.
-
Oh I know who this Center is..two more years on contract
-
Hmm...StartOrien selected Gordon Hayward. At like pick 20. What a jerk.

Yeah, I'm making the foundation of my team defense, as Wall, Bradley, and Gibson are good-to-great defenders. Hayward has shown he can check wings.
I think the thing that makes others not like my team is the offense is absolutely atrocious, and I agree with that. I don't pick until like the fifth round, so finding guys who can score will be tough.

Im very interested to see how todays draft goes. I have alot of value still left on the board, but usually this is where picks start surprising me. Will be interesting to see how salaries continue to effect things here.
Yep.
I look at my list and so want to jump back up into this but history teaches me that I can wait.
(It of course helps that I have already filled certain spots we are likely to see a run of today)
I definitely think salary considerations will play a big part in this going forward. there's someone still on the board who's talent should have had him picked already but has a killer contract. There's at least 4-5 others that I would expect to go in this round based on talent but their contracts may keep them on the sidelines.
I think I know who you're talking about, and I'm wondering if that guy's contract is SO bad that he won't end up getting picked.
I was wondering the dame thing. it would take either someone clearing a lot of cap room or a team with a lot of excess salary to start with.

I'm not understanding the hate for Hickson. His defense is improving, his rebounding is phenomenal, and he's shooting at a high % with a PER over 20. What's there not to like?
Plus he's cheap.

And idly Im gonna wonder if he was crushed by a horse or something, because otherwise how is this guy still around?
KNEW YOU WERE TARGETING HIM
I was actually targeting Gordon Hayward, thinking, "Eh, 2.6 is pretty early for Gordy, but he's a great fit next to Kyrie at the 2 long term, worth it."
Ryan Anderson was never on my radar, because I assumed he was already gone. Worked out though, now I got a stew goin.

People keep waiting for him to drop off, and don't see that he's not going to because he's playing in New Orleans.
man I was trying to trade back in the 2nd round if he kept falling!
-
There's no one slotted here with a bad enough attitude for me, so I'll take Anderson Varejao- but I'm going to put him in a cage for his recovery and not feed him enough

You can take a certain undrafted guy later and have him kick Varejao in the nuts for you.
Nice pick, but only if Andy can put a full season together again.

Haha, if you're taking the really expensive SG I'm thinking of, he is indeed really expensive.
Good player, though.

I wonder who the Lakers are taking.

So, what's the early consensus?
Are salaries an interesting aspect of this game that adds a new element, differentiating it from the CB Draft?
Or are they overly burdensome and a pain in the butt?

I think they're interesting so far and have clearly influenced some players' value.
I don't think they'll be seen as burdensome til some owners start running up against the line and need to start taking minimum guys or making salary dump trades to stay above water.

Ask around the 6th-7th round when everyone has filled out their starting lineups and rotations and take a gander at what they have left to spend.
My guess is you might get a different answer.
For me, it definitely adds a different perspective and skews player value. Overall not bad. Then again, I have the Lakers so maybe what I say is less important.

I assume Yoki is going to be moving JJ?
Otherwise, I don't love the fit. Deng / AI2 seem to already have the wings covered; there's no room for a $18 million sixth man.

I'm OK with it given that a guy with ~unlimited money basically said that was his target. But he needs to deal one of the Deng/Iggy/JJ trio to make sense of this. How that deal works out determines how good the pick was.

-
Joe Johnson is on the block.
-
I would be happy to start JJ at point guard in a big lineup or go small and slide Iggy to SF and Deng to PF.
I would be more inclined to go small. I think it'll be easier to find a PG who finishes that lineup smoothly than a skilled power forward.
-
What is Chicago's payroll now?
I imagine that foursome is very expensive. $18 million for Joe Johnson. What, $15 million for Iggy? $11 million for Noah maybe. Probably $12-13 million for Deng. Around $55-57 million. Is that right?
-
Will have class during my 2.22 pick so I will be fielding offers for it.
-
Joe Johnson is on the block.
I don't think he is going to have much trade value with his contract the way it is. Not many teams can afford to pay him. It'll be hard to get good value for him.
I think you will end up best off keeping him.

There is still one guy out there I'd probably take at 21, but I'm assuming he'll be gone soon.

Well, be patient and shop around for the best deal. You still have a couple of rounds until you really get pinched salary wise.
I'm hoping you don't have to break up that Noah-Deng-Iggy core. Love that.

Because now a PG on the opposing teams is going to have try to defend one of Joe Johnson, Andre Iguodala or Luol Deng.
JJ is a major matchup problem. Far more so than any PG left on the board.

Your fine. I had a few different budgets worked out before hand and one was for $53 million on a $70 million cap. So you got $56 for $74.
I figured I could've afforded to have three $4 million guys or four $3 million guys and then minimum contracts to round the rest of the team out. Something like that.
Doable, very much so.
It's not like you need a whole lot on your bench anyway.
Your star guys are all 40 minute a night players.
It's not like you have Roy Hibbert there who can only play 28 minutes a night and need an expensive backup behind him to keep everything ticking.

Nene takes some of the sting out of the Marc Gasol deal.
-
Me picks Nenê
Excellent pick. Nene was the guy I wanted to pair with Z-Bo in the summer's CB Draft when I had Zach Randolph + Deron Williams. Couldn't get him though.
I think Nene and Z-Bo will work very well together. One of the best M.Gasol replacements you could've gotten and to get him at this stage of the draft is an absolute steal.
-
All right, I got my tabs open for gmail, celticsblog, youtube, basketball-reference, and Woj's twitter page - I'm ready to party.
That's it? I figured you would have a tab open to stream Matlock or Murder She Wrote for your old guys.
I'm 29. I'm streaming old episodes of Global Guts if anything
Do,do,do, do you have it?

I haven't been in love with Redick in the past but living in Tampa and now watching him every game(Magic games are piped in here), I have to say, he's a heck of a player. Really has transform his game and stepped it up a level or three.

I really like the passing game your team is developing with Deron Williams, Andrei Kirilenko and JJ Redick. All strong ball-handlers too.
That would be an enjoyable offense to watch. Lots of ball movement and teamwork.

To me, Nene's differently. He's battled injuries before, but he's generally came back from them. There's a history there, that's not there for Bogut unfortunately.

Lakers are very happy their trade yesterday worked out and they ended up with the player they wanted all along.
Lakers select J.J. Redick
I haven't been in love with Redick in the past but living in Tampa and now watching him every game(Magic games are piped in here), I have to say, he's a heck of a player. Really has transform his game and stepped it up a level or three.
Actually insulted by this pick.

Willing to sell my 3rd and 4th for a second and fifth just so I can get a binky on my team.

Redick is a very good player, too. He's the guy I would have taken over Jamal Crawford.
I also needed another good guy/team guy to offset the attitudinal others in the locker room. Besides, JJ and D12 already have chemistry
-
If your guy is still on the board shoot me somethin to talk 'bout. I have the 6th pick after the break.
Listening to all offers on Hibbert, Paul George, and Nash.
-
38 out of 51 games isn't as bad as Bogut. He'll turn out good and be a good tandem with ZBo
-
I slotted my top 12 last night to get an idea of who would be available. I hit on 9 of 12. Not bad.

4 options at guard, all of whom I hope will be there at the end of the round.

Not far behind. I've spent $52.7 million so far. But I still have $46.6 million to spend. I'm guessing a lot of GMs will be coming to me to unload salary come the 7th or 8th rounds.
BTW, did Roy post anything about the consequences of going over the salary cap?

Combo of Westbrook/Thad Young and my 2.28 (last pick) for a pf/c your 2nd and 3rd/4th
Can vary picks based on what we end up sending

I don't think you CAN go over. You "lose" the game if you do? :D Lose all your first rounders like the Timberwolves for all future drafts? ;D

I'd say we keep a close eye on salaries and any pick that puts a team over is annulled (team keeps the pick but the player goes back into the pool and the usual rules about skipping missed picks apply).

George Hill
I think George Hill is the perfect type of PG to put alongside Kobe Bryant. A top defensive guard. A steady setup PG who is comfortable off the ball. Will let Kobe do his thing and play off of him. A very strong shooter who is a good scorer and can get to the rim. Excellent athleticism.
I think he'd be a very good role player for you if you decide to keep him.

A message to everyone who is posting trades/Waiting on Confirms:
1) Only post them yourself if a person in charge says its okay. At last check I think that went Roy, Me, wdleehi, StartOrien, nickagenta. Also as a second option, any other moderator you see hanging around the thread can help you out (Fafnir, etc)
2) If you don't get a response from one guy, work down the tree. Or, better yet, send them out to all the people at once. In the "To" box of a private message, send them to:
"Roy H.", "wdleehi", "StartOrien", "nickagenta"
Just copy and paste that in. Someone should see it.
3) If you do post your own trade, you MUST send a PM to Roy H. looking like this:
Hey, I confirmed a trade with (trade partner), sent it to (official who said to post it), and he said to post it right in the thread.
I did, but just to make sure you have a copy,
(put trade here, with picks)
Thanks!

1) Only post them yourself if a person in charge says its okay. At last check I think that went Roy, Me, wdleehi, StartOrien, nickagenta. Also as a second option, any other moderator you see hanging around the thread can help you out (Fafnir, etc)
2) If you don't get a response from one guy, work down the tree. Or, better yet, send them out to all the people at once. In the "To" box of a private message, send them to:
"Roy H.", "wdleehi", "StartOrien", "nickagenta"
Just copy and paste that in. Someone should see it.
3) If you do post your own trade, you MUST send a PM to Roy H. looking like this:
Hey, I confirmed a trade with (trade partner), sent it to (official who said to post it), and he said to post it right in the thread.
I did, but just to make sure you have a copy,
(put trade here, with picks)
Thanks!
4) HAVE SOME PATIENCE WITH TRADE CONFIRMATIONS.
I appreciate all the hardwork you guys put in into these games.
With that said, this has been a concern I think for the last couple of days (I've been a part of it too). GM's should do their due diligence and update their Sigs with their drafted players and remaining picks. Then once a trade has been confirmed, it would be appreciated if the Sigs would be updated right away.

Trade Confirmed:
Milwaukee sends 3.8, 3.13, 3.24, 8.6
Portland sends Wes Matthews, 4.17, 5.17, 7.17
Thanks, IP. TP to you.
Milwaukee came strong with an offer I felt we couldn't turn down.
Stings a little to see Afflalo go the very next pick. We would have taken him at 2.17.
Wes&Afflalo both on my short list. They were the best SGs to get.
-
Can we also update the IP to reflect the trades??
-
OK, I'm backtracking on all the trades. Didn't think I'd get quite that many. Was doing the best I could for a man standing in target looking at shelfing could do.
But first my pick. Gimme 2 secs

We do need someone to comb through the thread to make sure all the trades are posted. Sounds like Charlie work.

Ah, J-Duds. Just a solid lockerroom influence, awesome twitter account, and solid player right there.

Anyone looking to trade into my spot pm me now

I think the confusion is denver owns 5.7 not 5.6 or 5.8. He got it in the Cousins deal.
-
The Knicks choose Gerald Wallace (9.68 mill).
Gerald will be part of a trade to be announced shortly.

Not many SFs on the board who can really shoot the ball.
Dudley was a tempting option.
-
I'll take some of the blame for the pick confusion, since the 5.8 was originally mine. I've had to be very active on the trade front - I had Washington, what do you expect? - and it's lead to picks flying all over the place in some pretty crazy deals. I can imagine that would be hard to keep track of.
-
I think the confusion is denver owns 5.7 not 5.6 or 5.8. He got it in the Cousins deal.
Maybe we could just throw a 15 min pause on everything to get all trades/draft picks sorted out?

Trade:

Suns Send: 3.1 and 5.1
-
Trade Confirmed:
Milwaukee sends 3.8, 3.13, 3.24, 8.6

Milwaukee paying a very high price for Wes Matthews. Don't like that trade for them.
Very good deal for Portland.
-
El Pistones are in the Chat.

Ok i could just send 5.7 in the deal instead of 5.8 and the whole world will be good right???
I was trying to do two trades at once and got confused

I highly recommend updating your signature after each trade and pick. It makes life a lot easier for everyone.
-
Trade:
Knicks send: Gerald Wallace and 6.21
Suns Send: 3.1 and 5.1
I don't like G-Wallace and D-Wade together. Neither can shoot the ball. Too much pressure on Dragic to provide long distance shooting.
Boozer is probably their only above average jump-shooter in their lineup.
-

That can never be good.

Offers start with the 3.8, and we can improve your draft position elsewhere.

Dudley was a tempting option.
Would you consider Jeff Green one? ;D
No, J.Green has an iffy jumper.
34% from three
39% from long twos
29% on midrange twos
On about 200 attempts from those three ranges combined. A passable to average shooter.
More of a slasher and finisher around the basket.
Jared Dudley is a top notch shooter. 40.5% from three point range for his career. Takes a large number of attempts. Very effective floor spacer.

Dallas selects Demar Derozan
Derozan is on the block.

Ok sorry for the confusion I've updated my signature so its right finally and the originally trade is only altered by going from 5.8 to 5.7

I'm going to go with what he's actually being claimed as for salary, which will be the portion the new team is paying.
-
Just wondering, what happens after all the rounds? Nothing? ;D We just have fun?
We compare and see which GM's did good.
Pick 2 is more laid back compare style compare to annual CB Draft. That is where your basketball knowledge gets really tested. Right now, where basically exercising our GM capabilities.
And yes, we have fun.

Good Ersan, or Bad Ersan? I think Ersan translates as "yo-yo" in Turkish.
Just kidding. I think he's a good pick here for you. You get some shooting into the lineup, and can move Faried back to PF, where he belongs.

I think I believe in Knight moreso than most of the others on CB, but even I think this is a reach. Why Knight?
-
Miami Heat take Brandon Knight with 2.27
Great pick. I was thinking about him a lot with this Miami team.
I have been really impressed with his growth defensively this season. One of the best defensive PGs in the league right now. Very strong outside shooter too. He will play very well off of LeBron's drive and kick game.
Still has a lot of potential to improve.
-
I wonder, will any stars be traded anymore? ;D

Yeah, that is the one thing I think [Miami's starting PG] has over B.Knight. A proven clutch performer. Knight hasn't shown that.
Still, with Knight's potential to improve, I think this is the right pick at PG.
-
There are some other talented PGs I am quite surprised are still on the board.
-
Willing to trade Dragic,Wallace, Boozer if your interested PM me
-
I wonder, will any stars be traded anymore? ;D
The trades will continue right up until the fantasy game ends.
I am always amazed at how many late trades there are. So hard to balance out your supporting casts when you trade stars late on.
-
There are some other talented PGs I am quite surprised are still on the board.
Definitely - one of the reasons I picked Conley was because I thought it'd be slim pickings at PG later on. Very surprised at the depth still out there.
-
It seemed like everyone took them as keepers so there werent going to be that many left that needed them.
-
It seemed like everyone took them as keepers so there werent going to be that many left that needed them.
Yeah, I have 24 teams with guys at PG already. So only four vacancies. Probably the deepest position in the league at the moment so there should be good talent still available.
26 out of 28 teams already have filled their center position.
The small forward position is the least filled. Only 16 of 28 teams have SFs by my count. 9 openings at SG. Only 6 at PF.

Houston should have Wilson Chandler.
Fixed...

Really tough to sit out the 2nd day.
Luckily, I have two picks tomorrow to make up for it.
-
Well, now is usually the time I'd fire up 2k13 and assemble my team. But I literally already have this team made so....
Converting my front unused room into a small bar area. Anyone got advice on what to use? Shelving unit vs. book case?

Making the 3.1 available. You'll be guaranteed any player left on the board (less whoever OKC takes). I don't want to move down too far and want to substantially improve another pick.
I'm also willing to talk about guys already drafted as part of the package. Let me know.
-
Worried that your pick may not be there tomorrow?

3.3 needs to move as I have a midterm during it. Oh and I'd just like to move back and get another pick.
PM me with offers

Whatever happened to the Bogut trade? That was voided - right?
Was that trade redone or has it been scrapped?
-
It was redone and reconfirmed. Only change was it was 5.7 instead of 5.8
-
There are two more trades the OP doesnt have on it.
Lakers send: 2.24, 3.13, 3.24
Lakers receive: 2.8, 3.6, 5.8
Denver sends: 2.8, 5.8
Denver receives: 2.24, 4.6
Milwaukee sends: 3.6, 4.6
Milwaukee receives: 3.13, 3.24
and
Denver Receives hickson, 3.3, 6.3, 10.3
for
Raptors Receive bogut, 4.6, 5.7, 8.12

I don't see the
M. Gasol + 3.15

Miami Heat take Brandon Knight with 2.27
Great pick. I was thinking about him a lot with this Miami team.
I have been really impressed with his growth defensively this season. One of the best defensive PGs in the league right now. Very strong outside shooter too. He will play very well off of LeBron's drive and kick game.
Still has a lot of potential to improve.
You think Knight is ready for prime time? It's one thing chucking in Detroit, it's another thing playing with THE KING.
it's amazing how good playing with Bron will make this kid look. just basically has to get the ball across halfcourt and be open for passes.
-
It was redone and reconfirmed. Only change was it was 5.7 instead of 5.8
This was the last mention of it I could find looking back through the thread.
This trade has been voided, to be clear:
Raptors Send: Hickson, 3.3, 6.3, 10.3
for
Nuggets Send: Bogut, 4.6, 5.6, 8.12
Again, it needs to be resubmitted to a commish.
I think you guys need to resubmit it to IP or Roy.
-
I have resent it to IP and so has my trade partner. It was only a change in one number from 5.8 to 5.7 all parties confirmed it

Everyone on trade block including Jrue

I see it more as I needed to move Hickson after realizing that he tried and failed to play with DMC and got him a more suitable partner. And I moved up

-
Again the 2.28 is on the board for trades PM Me offers.
What time does the pick need to be in by??

I am curious what people will do in a day or so when they realize they have 55 million in contracts and only 4-5 players? Firesales?

I don't think it's the worst thing. It'll take them out of races for some veterans, but you could fill a roster with a lot of bargain bin contracts and be just fine.

Green can put teams over the top, MKG can not. MKG is for a rebuilding team, not me! :D

I don't agree. He's already a great defender and can't get up and down the court well. Think he could be a great guy off the bench for a contender, and there's plenty of vets at the sf position you coudl get later.
-
Blockbuster Deal will probably be announce once the Thunder GM gets back on no information will be leaked though as deal is not confirmed

OKC just got stronger with this trade. Durant doesn't have to battle for shots with Westbrook and I think Smith fits in well with Durant.
-
Just realized the Thunder also have Thaddeus Young, in addition to Durant and Smith.
Not sure what to think about that. Young will be great off the bench, but having no center or SG is tough.
Nevermind, he already did mov Young

Pretty fair trade though I am wondering why OKC is giving up 3.3 when they are getting the best player in the deal by far.
I love the trade for OKC, better chemistry all around.
I hate it for Philly.
Westbrook, Martin, Crawford, Mcgee and Hickson?
Lot of immature people there and a lot of guys who love shooting and hate passing.

it's so funny how we critique every trade. Not knocking it and I get that's the point but it is just amusing to hear all the opinions. I just hope nobody lets all these voices sway their thinking cause last time I checked, this was my fantasy [dang]it!
Stay out of my fantasy! lol

Love how the trade sets OKC up.
I like Philly's pieces but now how they fit right now. However given all the trades, that will all change 8 times before Saturday.
Oh and Portland with 4 picks tomorrow.

True. It's what you signed up for when you decided to play. Other GMs will criticize you on every bad move you make. Just gotta learn to get use to it. I've been doing this since the very first CB draft back in 2007, kinda got use to it.

Criticism (constructive) is always good.
But by the time it reaches blatant insults and attacks both through the public forums and the private messaging system, simply because I refused a deal he offered that I didn't think would suit my team... that's just excessive and it's really getting to me.
I know that ZBo is my best player, I don't need you to critique every move I make just because you don't agree with it, because it's my franchise. Not yours. Sorry, and stop.
-
Half the fun is the banter and the feedback. You do also learn a ton about the NBA. The goal is to not hurt people so they quit, which seems to happen every summer.

I will never quit, I don't like to give up. Plus, this is really fun imo. But I'd just like to point out I respect every GM's opinions except for one.

Sure, if you make a bad move, you'll get put on blast for it, but there's no malice meant. Just real talk.
True. It's what you signed up for when you decided to play. Other GMs will criticize you on every bad move you make. Just gotta learn to get use to it. I've been doing this since the very first CB draft back in 2007, kinda got use to it.
I'd go even further to say it's good. It's taught me a lot about the value of players around the NBA. Before this, I didn't know too much about some of these players.
Definitely. Criticism is good. Lets you know what you need to improve on.
Criticism (constructive) is always good.
But by the time it reaches blatant insults and attacks both through the public forums and the private messaging system, simply because I refused a deal he offered that I didn't think would suit my team... that's just excessive and it's really getting to me.
I know that ZBo is my best player, I don't need you to critique every move I make just because you don't agree with it, because it's my franchise. Not yours. Sorry, and stop.
This is too funny you make silly trade requests that ticks people off

No idea what Philly is doing.
Seems like making trades just for the sake of making trades.
There is a plan and if i remember correctly we are not even close to the end.
It must be pretty subtle because nobody sees it but you.
I guess i'd be mad also if Randolph was by far my best player

Guys cool it seriously. This stuff should stay private.

My last words to you: Stop.

No idea what Philly is doing.

There is a plan and if i remember correctly we are not even close to the end.
In the past the teams that are constantly shuffling have turned into the teams without a plan and generally have ended up being pretty poorly.
At the same time, this team just acquired Russell Westbrook and should be able to get another really nice piece at 3.3. I don't like the fit of the current roster, but if you're not a contender and you can bring in Russel Westbrook at an affordable rate you HAVE to do it, right?
-
My last words to you: Stop.
Whatever im done you shouldnt have ever said that if you have a problem with me handle it through pms
-
Just to get things back on topic, Demar Derozan is still on the block.

Guys, this thread is going to get locked soon.
Let's change the subject to how much my team sucks. No, seriously. Look at my sig.
How man hames would that team win? I say 17 at most.

If the bickering continues, there will be (potentially permanent) bans from CelticsBlog drafts. This is meant for fun.

In fairness, that was a pretty crazy that nobody in their right mind should have agreed to.
-
Guys knock it off NOW!!
Its not worth it.
Everyone gets criticized here. Everyone makes bad moves. Everyone has a player someone in this exercise doesn't like and will say bad things about. It happens.
And...if I know Roy and the mods, start trouble in the Pick 2 draft and I can guarantee you won't be playing these drafts any more.
Now shake hands and make up.
NEVERMIND. I SEE THE BIG GUY ALREADY IS INVOLVED

Roy/nick/anyone how often does CB do a draft?

Roy/nick/anyone how often does CB do a draft?
There's a Celticsblog draft every summer where each GM starts from scratch. And then there's a pick 2 draft every January-February. There's also a historical draft. So about 3 a year. I enjoy the Celticsblog draft in the summer the most.
-
Roy/nick/anyone how often does CB do a draft?
We do the "CB Draft" in the summer. That's the big, fairly competitive one. There is voting involved, and a "winner" is ultimately crowned.
Then, there's the Pick 2 draft, usually taking place around the all-star break.
Third, we usually have some sort of "historic" draft, featuring players from the NBA's past.
Last, we have several other "silly" drafts, including the "Ultimate Draft" (draft anybody to fit certain categories, like U.S. President, artist, fictional character, etc.), the "Pub" draft (outfit a pub with various features), etc.

Nah somebody'll grab him - lots of teams with low salary #s right now.
On the other hand, I'll be absolutely shocked if anyone takes a certain Michael Jordan of Turkey.

Roy/nick/anyone how often does CB do a draft?
There's three basketball drafts, the CB Draft, the Pick 2 Draft and the Historical Draft.
CB Draft is usually a late summer thing. The Pick 2 Draft around this time. The Historical Draft happens in May or so.
-
Monta Ellis is on the block. Looking for a wing who can shoot the 3 and play defense. So if you need scoring, hit me up!

Looking for the same.
Derozan can also score and he's 9 million dollars cheaper than Ellis.

If anyone wants to make a deal with the best team in the league, well, please send Brooklyn or Miami a message.
BUT, if you want to make a deal with the Lakers PM me.
Every proposal will get a positive response(meaning you get a TP, not that I will say yes,)
Don't think I don't see what you're trying to do here.
I will not let you run rough shod over the league like the REAL Lakers. >:(
Don't buy it folks, Nick is just trying to steal your superstar.
Seeing as I how I think this little nugget of truth got lost in the shuffle, I'll point it out again.

I don't know about anybody else, but it would help me if I saw an updated list of who's left on the board. So if somebody wants to post the first two rounds here, I'll go through the list and strike off everybody who has been taken thus far and then post it here for everybody.

He's not known as "Slick Nick" for nothing ;)
I'll just take it as a knowledgeable compliment that Nick recognizes the talent I've accumulated so far for Miami 8)

Also, I'm willing to trade for another pick early in the third round. PM me if interested.

Available players list
* Note: This list isn't exhaustive. Teams are eligible to draft free agents or overseas players. However, you take a player in his current position. In other words, if he's currently injured, he's injured on your team. If he's under contract to an overseas team, he remains under contract for purposes of this game. For free agents who are eligible to play this season, please contact me and I will assign a salary to that player for purposes of this game.

Milsap has been on the block all day. I had him practically in my hands myself, but technical difficulties unfortunately scuttled the deal.
Great deal for the Knicks.
Good deal for the Wolves too.

It's below Milsap's true value, but FWF did a masterful job here, and I hope you all took note;
He created a commodity by selling his asset as something everyone needs. Get your guy, that one guy you will have lost out on if you don't make the deal. The 'Ive got a guy in mind, so I may not move it' part was very well done.
A 3.1 is always worth more than a 2.15 when the second round is over.
For the t-wolves, it may be best to wait until they make their picks to pass judgement.

The Detroit Pistons are announcing their name change to The Detroit Newsies.When asked about the change, GM KCatthestripe had this to say, " We felt that with this shift towards a team of young men fighting a battle against established NBA powers, this name better reflected our identity. Once and for All, these young men will be Carrying the Banner and will Seize the Day for Detroit and The World Will Know who we are." When asked about the rumor that the team was considering a move to Santa Fe, Atthestripe replied, " No Comment."

Once and for All, these young men will be Carrying the Banner and will Seize the Day for Detroit and The World Will Know who we are." When asked about the rumor that the team was considering a move to Santa Fe, Atthestripe replied, " No Comment."

Hoping to buy another early third-round pick. PM me if you're willing to sell.
-
absolutely have somebody in mind with the 3.1 but will always listen to any and all offers
-
David Stern, when notified that the Pistons would be called the newsies, said, "No, not that's not going to happen."
Rumors that the New York Knicks will soon be known as 'Guys And Dolls' and that the Bobcats will now be known as 'Les Mis' persist.
-
Trade Confirmed:
Knicks trade: 3.1 3.21 5.21
TWolves trade: Paul Millsap 4.22 6.22
Wow. Good trade for the Knicks. If I'd known I could pull Millsap for something like that, I would have been all over it.
Same here
It's below Milsap's true value, but FWF did a masterful job here, and I hope you all took note;
He created a commodity by selling his asset as something everyone needs. Get your guy, that one guy you will have lost out on if you don't make the deal. The 'Ive got a guy in mind, so I may not move it' part was very well done.
A 3.1 is always worth more than a 2.15 when the second round is over.
For the t-wolves, it may be best to wait until they make their picks to pass judgement.
Well said IP. I tried a lot of different deals and FWF wouldn't budge. He dug his feet in the sand and by the end I had worked so hard I just wanted to make a deal lol
Good business by him but im happy with what I got. I wanted young cheap talent and milsap didn't fit that

According to multiple sources, reports that Chandler Parson's has organized the Newsies roster into a formal strike against David Stern's tyrannical rule appears accurate. According to Pistons C/PF Greg Monroe-- who now demands to be called Spots Conlon-- the Newsies will continue to protest and are hiring Tony Award winning Choreographer Christopher Gattelli to help orchestrate their protest in a more compelling and visceral fashion.
In a seemingly unrelated note, Andre Drummond's post moves have improved dramatically.

Thanks - I agree that how Minnesota uses their picks (and to a lesser degree how I use mine) will determine the trade. But I'm excited to have Millsap here.
I was definitely selling the 1st pick as what it was - time to think about it and take any guy on the board. But I really did have a guy in mind ;)

I'm sorry, I'm not hip to musicals like IP is, but shouldn't the Bobcats simply be called "Cats"? That seems self-evident.

I think he was playing on the fact that "Les MIserables" means "The Miserable Ones". San Antonio would be "Cats" because they keep running and no one can understand why or how it works.

Only I will know the true values of Vasquez, Klay and Green. Oh well.

And to be clear - yes, that photoshop was a joke.
-
I may not know Jeff Green's true value but I'm pretty sure its not 8.6 million dollars a year.

Can't believe I've went through the whole draft so far using my phone. My batteries are drained. Anyways, about to give this thang a rest. if anyone is interested in Derozan, shoot me a PM.

Denver traded Faried for Cousins? How did I miss that?

Looking to buy another third round pick. PM me if interested.
Also tentatively shopping Monta. Not sure I want to move him, just testing the waters at this point.
-
Gotta say, with the Milsap deal, the Knicks now appear to be the early leader for best team.
Really like the Conley Jr, Melo, Milsap, Chandler core.
Denver looking strong as the best young team right now. Better buy some vets though. Need a solid lockeroom presence, and there is that salary floor to consider.
-
The gift of the first pick in a critical round after the first two is that you will get the guy you wanted. The curse is that you wonder of you've missed someone.

Well, I hope you do miss someone. I have a player in mind at 3.9, and I'm hoping like heck he drops through the first eight picks.

What is the salary floor number I dont know it off hand
And yep the goal now is to maybe find a few more young gems but generally add some old vets
-
Provided these picks are accurate, I can confirm it.
Oklahoma City trades: Thadeus Young, 2.28 and 4.28
to
Denver Nuggets for: JJ Hickson, 3.3, and 5.12
I like this one alot for Denver, I think he is getting the best player and best picks in the deal
Yeah, that is my take on it too. Good deal for Denver.
I really like Thaddeus Young there with Ty Lawson at PG and Cousins at C. Nice running game developing game there.
-
Trade Confirmed:
Knicks trade: 3.1 3.21 5.21
TWolves trade: Paul Millsap 4.22 6.22
Really bad value for Minnesota. Millsap is too good a player to be given up for a third round pick.
Excellent trade for Knicks. Reinforces their title hopes.

I am guessing it is a certain young small forward who has lots of upside and is already playing a starting role for a playoff team.

As always, everything is on the table. Will be in class all day so may not be able to immediately respond

3.1 is on the block, I'm gonna take offers for an hour, if nothing presents it's self, Im gonna pick.
Entertaining the notion of sliding back a little bit, and improving my 4.4 or 5.12 into something considerably better.
If you've got one guy you know will bring everything together for you, right now is the time to make your move.

With the Newly Acquired 3.1, the Hawks Select: Jose Calderon
(http://thefakebasketball.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/jose_calderon-583.jpg)
Calderon brings everything to the table that I look for in a PG. Leadership, floor spacing, unselfish ball movement, and below average defense. I think he should work really well facilitating the offense with my three headed monster of a frontcourt.

With the Newly Acquired 3.1, the Hawks Select: Jose Calderon
Highest rated PG on my board since Conley was drafted late in the first round.
Terrific fit alongside Granger, K-Love and Horford. A strong defensive two guard and you will have one of the best five man units in the league.
-
suddenly the Jazz have the best big man rotation in the game
and have guards
17/8 player being páid 4 millions or something
Don´t cry for me Argentina!!!!

I think that is a great pick too. Two excellent picks to kickoff the third round.
Scola, Favors and Big Al is a potent big man rotation. I like the interchangeability of those three guys. They can all work alongside one another. All are post up threats that need to be guarded against by opposing team's defenses.

3.3. SHAWN MARION
I would be tempted to bring in another SF and shift Marion to power forward.
Start Marion (PF) alongside McGee (C). A shooter/defender at SF to space the floor. A strong running game with great athletes in the open floor. Make it hard for teams to send help defenders at Westbrook in the pick and roll game in the halfcourt.

-
Lakers select Tiago Splitter
-
Harrison Barnes
Yeah, that is who I figured you were going to take. Excellent pick.
Brilliant young player to put alongside Kyrie, A.Bynum and R.Anderson. A great core to be able to build around for the next 10 years.
Surprised both MKG and H.Barnes slipped as far as they did. I thought they both had a shot at being in the first round and would've been in the top half of the 2nd round at worst.
-
Lakers select Tiago Splitter
That's the real value, right there.
-
Harrison Barnes
Heck yeah Black Falcon!
Love this kid's game.
-
Lakers select Tiago Splitter
Great pick. Excellent backup for D-Howard.
-
Harrison Barnes
This is who I was trying to buy a second third rounder for. Wanted him.
Oh well.
-
Are we on 3.7?
-
Are we on 3.7?
I don't think so. 3.6 I thought.
Sorry, yes. 3.7 is up.
-
I am utterly, ridiculously delighted to select Kosta Koufos for 3 years at 3 million per with this pick.
-
Done with work. No more taking 2 minute breaks to see whos up.
DONT TAKE MY GUY!
-
With the 3.8, Portland selects Tayshaun Prince.
-
With the 3.8, Portland selects Tayshaun Prince.
Ah darn. MKG, H.Barnes and Tayshaun where my top three choices at SF.
Tayshaun Prince has been my top rated SF since Danny Granger was selected at 1.16 or whatever it was. Excellent addition to the Blazers.
-
Lunch time for me.
Anyone want my list of two?
-
Having a hard time picking between two players right now. Give me a minute.

Lunch time for me.

I can take it if you like.
-
Lakers select Tiago Splitter
How was this guy not drafted earlier-SMH!
I've been praying everyone forgot about him, and he'd slip into the 4th round
Not having a 3rd rounder is killing me right about now.
-
Alright, taking Danny Green.
Absolute sniper on the outside, and a good defender. He lets me bring Monta off the bench as a gunner, and that's exactly what I want.

I love that pick.
Danny Green is an excellent glue guy. He was going to be the perfect role playing starting SG for somebody. Made so much sense for several teams.

Shoot. I was hoping he'd still be there in round 4

Alright I'm up.
Sticking to the theme to completely lock down opposing teams, the Chicago Bulls select Elton Brand and his decent mid rage shooting, great post defense and his 2 million dollar contract.
Sweet!

I am utterly, ridiculously delighted to select Kosta Koufos for 3 years at 3 million per with this pick.
[dang] you! I've been watching him slip. Get a starting center that cheap in the third is great value
-
Looking to trade up from the 20th pick of this round for a specific player
-
Can someone post an update of this round's picks?
My midterm went well, thanks for asking ;D

I have gone this entire draft without making a trade...

Looking to buy another pick in this round. PM me if you're interested.
-
Some nice picks thus far. Kemba as a scoring 6th man was the guy I was considering at the 3.1, and Danny Green's been a binky of mine since UNC. Good job, good effort, guys.
-
Who's got picks comin up cuz I want em!
I got the 20th pick this round and we can swap later round picks. PLUS, I'll get your back the rest of the draft if you make the trade.
Lots a 'Great pick!'s, lot of me defending your team and talking about stuff that you do well. These kinda things
-
What I'm saying is - if you wanna be boys we can be boys, just trade me your pick.
-
Lakers have some players that are fairly decent economic value or very good value economic value for their talent level value. So, while we currently love our team and see no reason to change things, if you are getting stuck in an economic bind and need to free up some cap room, think of these guys. Simple one on one trades. You send me a higher salaried guy with more talent, I send you the very good talent on a better economic value and the cap savings to spend elsewhere.
Redick $ 6.19 million
Kirilenko $9.78 million
Splitter $ 3.94 million

If you wanna be boys with IP, go right ahead.

But who cares, cuz the internet's all like "OMG, this show is so great!"

I would like to do the opposite. If anyone here has a bad player who is also expensive that they want to trade to me for a better player who is also cheap, one for one, I want to talk to you. Also, have you heard about Herbalife?

Also, besides taking all your really expensive talent that you can't afford any more for my very good talent at a salary you will like, the Lakers will also gladly discuss moving our 5.6 and a switch of later picks for a boost into the 4th round.
Thank you gentlemen.

You'll pay for that. And I don't need to remind you that I could take my revenge with the push of a button. But the coldest, cruelest punishment will be to make you wait. To promise you that there will be consequences for your thoughtless insult, but it will not come today. Or perhaps tomorrow. Just know that every day I wait to claim my rightful recompense, the punishment will grow more severe. You'll stub your toe, and pray that it was my actions. You'll drop your ice cream, scratch a brand-new x-box game, and hope that finally, your debt had been paid.
But in the back of your feeble, inane trivia-filled mind, you'll realize that you're not sure. You're not sure if the debt has been paid. So you will live your life in perpetual fear, and clinging to light like a starving moth, hoping to stave off the shadows.
Now, ANNYBODY ELSE WANT TO MOCK FIREFLY?????

BTW, maybe the best run of drafting thus far in this draft. The talent and fits and values coming off the board now are awesome. Well played everyone. Kudos especially to wdleehi with the Landry pick and Atzar for the Danny Green pick and ronaldo with the Marion pick and IP with the Barnes pick and Yoki with the Brand pick and...wow. They really are all pretty outstanding draft picks at this stage.
-
So, we're at the break?
We have the 3.13. Both Rebus and I have meetings when the pick is due, so I'll need to send it to someone, or make the selection early (begging the committee's indulgence).

Nice.
I really wanted him but money is too much in my situation.
If at this point 4 million is to high of a price, it might be time to trim one high salary.

Playing better then most fans will realize because he is on the Wiz.
I like the pick but think you might have been able to wait a little longer on him.

IP, you here?

Webster's definitely a bang-for-the-buck pick.

Yep, completely over estimated the salary cap thing.
Its not like im in deep trouble, I just gotta find some cheaper options out there. Besides, I love how my team shaped up, expensive and all.
Total lockdown!

Send the pick to me to be safe. I think you should be able to pick, but I'd feel better waiting for IP to give you the green light.

nice fit with that roster

Nice pick. I considered taking him myself, although he was a bit behind Green and one other guy who hasn't been drafted yet.
-
Thanks, guys. Spread some TPs around.
With the 3.13, Portland selects Thabo Sefolosha.
3pt shooting is a real worry, but I can see why you picked him up.

Who got the next pick? Trade iiiiiiitttt
-
I got the 3.15 The pick after the next pick.
I am more then willing to move back from this pick as long as I stay in this round.

Thanks, guys. Spread some TPs around.
With the 3.13, Portland selects Thabo Sefolosha.
3pt shooting is a real worry, but I can see why you picked him up.
Eh, he's shot better than 40% behind the stripe for the last two seasons. Lillard and Prince can also knock down the three for us.
I agree, I prefer Green to Thabo. But we're really happy with our wings. Our list going into the round had Tayshaun, Green, and Thabo at the top.

Would have picked him up over Webster. And how is 3pt shooting a worry? He's up over 40%

3pt shooting is a real worry, but I can see why you picked him up.
Eh, he's shot better than 40% behind the stripe for the last two seasons. Lillard and Prince can also knock down the three for us.
I agree, I prefer Green to Thabo. But we're really happy with our wings. Our list going into the round had Tayshaun, Green, and Thabo at the top.
Oh boy, that is the fourth SF to come off the top of my board in the last 15 picks.
Not sure I like the value of my next best choice. I am thinking it might be best to wait until the next round to fill that hole in my lineup. Maybe a PG instead.
Excellent pick by the way. I love Thabo's game. His much improved three point shot has really increased his value. It's not just his three point percentage but he is finally looking to take a good number of attempts. He has almost 170 attempts in 50+ games this year already while shooting 40%. The comfort level is finally there.

I know I am not picking for need with my next pick.
It is BPA or a trade for me. (for those of you who like to analyze rosters and guess the direction of the pick)

Yeah, PM me with offers on Jennings!

Wow. He's at over 3 attempts per game, his turnover ratio is down, he's quietly turned into an actual player, instead of a novelty act.

3.14 - New Orleans select Jarrett Jack

I think BPA is a guy who fills a need (defensive SG) for your team.

3.14 - New Orleans select Jarrett Jack
Nice pick. Would've strongly considered him at 3.22, just to play him at the 2 full time.

No break?
OK
Just give me a moment. I made a counter offer that I am waiting on.

I am now officially confused about why a certain starting PG on a cheap contract is falling down this board.

That's pretty severely undervaluing DeAndre Jordan, who for some reason people are suuuuuper down on. I'd rather keep Garnett myself, but DJ is a real talent.
I think Bledsoe's just an awesome 6th man. Just the type of guy you can have off the bench and tell him to go do stuff, and he'll create absolute havoc on the court.
-
I thought Bledsoe would drop at least another round. That his disappointing spell as a starter in CP3's absence would keep him available for another 30-50 picks.
Oh well.

Former GM though.
To me, DeAndre Jordan is taking the big-man progression. He's taken a step up every single year. His foul shooting is atrocious, but it shouldn't overshadow all the good he does. This guys going to be Tyson Chandler.

At any rate..I choose Jeff Teague
Love how my guard rotation is stacking up..didn't expect him here
I would start Teague and bring Kemba off the bench.
Teague is a better shooter, defender, floor general and playmaker.
I think Kemba is ideally suited to being a change of pace PG off the bench. He'll be brilliant there. I was hoping to take him for that role if he slipped.
-
At any rate..I choose Jeff Teague
Love how my guard rotation is stacking up..didn't expect him here
I have no idea why Teague lasted this long. Good starting PG on a playoff team making $2M this year.

Oh well.
I took that as just how awesome Paul is.
I think Eric Bledsoe is spectacular behind Steph Curry if you decide to keep him.
I love how different their skill-sets are. Steph Curry with the steady hand and silky smooth jump-shot and Bledsoe with the maniacal athleticism, defense and energy. They would work really well alongside one another in a small backcourt too.
For me, Bledsoe is more valuable than Jamal Crawford off the Clippers bench. Their true 6th man. I think his defense and possession creation and solid scoring is more valuable than Crawford's shot-creation and weak defense.

Great picks this round. I love the Scola, Barnes, Thabo and Teague, picks in particular. Good stuff by all though.

Name this superhero, according to popular cannon material:
Comes from a rich family with an impressive estate, one held in the family for years.
Parents were killed when he was a young boy, forcing him to abruptly leave childhood and the trauma from having his parents die act as motivation for the violent lifestyle he eventually adopts.
Leaves ancestral home to learn how to become the weapon he eventually evolves into.
Projects image of shallow drunken playboy, but actually has great sympathy for victims of bullies or villains, and strict moral codes that dictate his behavior.
Uses tons of expensive unique gadgets in his work to complete tasks.
Eventually returns home to family estate to be greeted by longtime male servant to the family who has remained loyal and devoted during the years he was gone, and who will ultimately prove to be more worldy and lethal than initially thought by the audience.

Spencer Hawes then.
A nice skill set for a 7-footer. I think he ought to complement Nene, and the rest of your lineup.
-
I'd like to sing my next pick if that's OK with you guys
-
Spencer Hawes then.
Pick 2 Team: Houston Rockets
PG Manu Ginobli ($14.1 mil)
SG James Harden ($5.8 mil)
SF Wilson Chandler ($5.9 mil)
PF ?
C Nene ($13 mil)
Hawes (C) will work really nicely alongside Nene (PF/C).
I really like the fit there. Big frontline. Difficult to matchup against.
-
Ha, man it was hard not to bail on that meeting early. Terrified SO was going to jump me.
-
I'd like to sing my next pick if that's OK with you guys
I'd prefer interpretive dance from you, SO.

There's a guy who I can think of who would be perfect next to Irving. Granted, he's no Thabo, but he would fit nicely.

Aw shucks. I guess it was too much wishful thinking he drops in the fourth round. Great pick up,
Daddy didn't give attention.

Wow I did not want to make that pick. Jgod taking Tony Allen really threw me.

Shump Shump was my second choice, but coming off ACL surgery and looking like garbage so far..couldn't do it.

I don't love it. Or even like it. Hinrich has lost too much over the years, in my opinion.

He hasn't been 100% but will get better as the season progresses. On a positive note he is shooting over 40% from three

Why am I getting skipped!? I want Shumpert
-
Am I up with the 3.24?
The two guys on my list are both available, and I'm really not sure which one to take.

Your pick was due 15 minutes ago, I think. I'll wait a few minutes, I'm due at 20 past the hour.

-

No, the deadline is the deadline. It's why I always advise people that if they're on the clock, pick. When they wait for others to go, they risk losing their guy.
-
Man this sucks! I really wanted Shumpert..things were slowin down so I thought the picks got pushed back a little on deadline
You were 3:00 and you didn't post till 3:05 and once it's past 3:00, the other guy was allowed to make his pick...
-
Figured now might be a good time to pipe in.
Just thought I'd let all you GM's realizing your salary cap is getting precariuosly close, I'm waiting over here with Kawhi Leonard and his $1.81m contract. ;)
-
just to make sure i'm tracking who's on the clock correctly - pick 3.24 is on the clock until 3:20 and then 3.25 can jump in. anyone have anything different?

Yeah! Great player and pick!

At 3.24, Portland takes Jonas Valanciunas.
Apologies for the poor formatting, had to get the pick in quick after a work convo delayed me from making the selection on time.
-
what pick are we at? Im all confused now
-
have to say a lot of good value picks being made this round. thankfully I still see some guys I like that are available in a few picks. :)
-
what pick are we at? Im all confused now
3.25 I think.
-
Portland takes Jonas Valanciunas.
I only realized Jonas was still on the board about 45 minutes ago. I couldn't believe he was still there. Excellent pickup at this later stage in the draft. Should've been a first or second round pick.
-

3.25 is up now

I'm with you. everything just got screwed up.
Lucky17 -- Which # pick did you use on Jonas?

A suggestion would be to not run this through a forum but rather through a site designated for this kind of stuff. Then, it'd be much easier ;D But would it still be a CelticsBlog draft if it weren't on CelticsBlog? :-O

To be honest, there was another, older player I was seriously considering here. Not quite sure I shouldn't have gone with the other guy.
But, I like the idea of going forward with Lillard/LMA/Jonas as the core of the team in the more distant future.
Slam: 3.24. I was technically skipped as well, so I think 3.26 is up, and due in ten minutes.

so I'm up? lol I have 3.26 so I'm going with that

I don't know, I think the 1st round would have been a pretty wild over pay.
Valanciunas has shown a lot more offensive skill / feel for the game than I expected.
When I saw him previously for Lithuania, he looked very raw and unskilled but I have been really impressed with him this year in Toronto. Much better footwork and ball/head fakes than I expected and has a few early work in progress post moves and a short jump shot.
Valanciounas can clearly be a well above average defender and rebounder. Combine that with his offensive potential. Valanciounas is a very good center prospect.
Valanciounas wouldn't have made sense for a win-now team but I think Jonas was one of the most valuable prospects available in the draft after the keepers were selected. He would've been a great fit for anyone building towards the future.

That extra space can come in hand later in the draft someone needs to dump salary and will take back a lesser talent on a smaller deal.

well, deciding factor between my 2 options came down to $.
with 3.27, the Heat take Sweet Lou Williams.

He fouls like a sonofamother
With very young big men, you almost want them to. Young bigs who play defense foul a lot. Young bigs who don't foul don't play defense.
Obviously that's not universally true, but in many cases (including this one, in my opinion) it is.

Obviously that's not universally true, but in many cases (including this one, in my opinion) it is.
Young bigs are certainly behind the 8-ball to begin with in terms of fouling, but between his hand injury and his propensity to foul he's been limited in his exposure to NBA minutes and quicker growth.
He'll get better, he has all the skills, he just needs to stay on the court!

it was a tough decision. I had a few others in mind but I think it's a good pick for this team going forward -- much like when Rondo was picked earlier in the draft.
This team is still young. The only really 'old' player is Emeka and he's still got plenty of game left in him. we'll be set for awhile

Hmm. There's still at least one SG on the board that I would take over Ray Allen at this point. Still, he does fit your other players well, as long as you can hide him defensively.

Wow the third round really drained the depth for my team. Great picks overall I'm going to really need to find some gems with my later picks, luckily all i need is some veterans to add to my team

plenty of good talent still out there. easily go through the next 4 full rounds and get some quality players. some people may be feeling the salary cap pinch very shortly though and have to forego their options A, B, C, ... J, K, L, etc... and just take Warm Body Getting Paid
The Vet Min #1 option

Funny, it seems like not nearly as many trades going down today
I think there were a flurry of trades in the first few days while people figured out where they were going with their team. Now, most people have a direction in mind and things aren't quite so crazy.
My guess is that there will be another flurry of trades in the middle-to-end of the draft as people realize that they're stuck up against the cap and near to clear some money, or are way underneath the floor and need to eat a bad contract. In the meantime, people are putting feelers out here and there but otherwise seem content to finish out their team through the draft.

I think there were a flurry of trades in the first few days while people figured out where they were going with their team. Now, most people have a direction in mind and things aren't quite so crazy.
My guess is that there will be another flurry of trades in the middle-to-end of the draft as people realize that they're stuck up against the cap and near to clear some money, or are way underneath the floor and need to eat a bad contract. In the meantime, people are putting feelers out here and there but otherwise seem content to finish out their team through the draft.
well said. it just seemed funny how active people have been up until today. you're likely right though.

I think this is a pretty good assessment. I think there'll be more people looking to get under the cap than up to the min. I think that's when you'll see the teams that have plenty of cap space be able to squeeze a good deal from those that have to choose between trading for lesser/cheaper talent or picking a vet min guy that's only playing at a vet min level

Suns trade boozer 4.1
Nets trade Leonard 4.24
Confirmed.

Suns trade boozer 4.1
Nets trade Leonard 4.24
Confirmed.
This deal works out well for both teams
Nets: get a good starting PF
Suns: reduce cap space by 13 million

Suns trade boozer 4.1
Nets trade Leonard 4.24
Confirmed.
I don't like that for New Jersey. Individual talent downgrade. A dodgy defensive big man alongside B.Lopez is a bad fit. Plus, it's a load of extra salary (for an inferior player).
Excellent move for Phoenix. Kawhi Leonard is a great fit alongside D-Wade on the wing. A very athletic and active defensive duo on the wings. Plus, Dragic at the point. Terrific perimeter defense all round. Gortat in the paint as a defensive anchor and shot-blocker. They should have a very strong defensive unit.

Wait did you just say that Kawhi is better than Boozer? Of course i might have read wrong but if you said that than you're wrong at this stage Boozer is better than Kawhi but Kawhi does have a lot of potential
-
Not a fan of that for NJ
-
All players available 8)
-
I concur with Who, Leonard is a better fit. Boozer doesn't fit well with Lopez as both are poor defenders. Plus Boozer is overpaid in this game at 15 million.
-
I think Kawhi was a great pickup. Boozer has a pretty toxic contract for anyone who doesn't ABSOLUTELY need him
-

I agree with this, the thing is though Brooklyn can afford Boozer since they have $13 more million than most of us :(
-
I think Kawhi was a great pickup. Boozer has a pretty toxic contract for anyone who doesn't ABSOLUTELY need him
I needed to shed money, kawhi was too good to pass up, plus I can just slide Gerald Wallace to PF, I liked boozer but with salary caps turned on I had to move him or I'd have no bench

Yes, I did.
Kawhi is in that Shane Battier (at his peak) type zone where even as a role player he is more valuable than many low level stars.
Like Battier, Kawhi hardly puts a foot wrong on the court. Almost every contribution he makes to his team is a positive one.
A guy like Boozer, the positive contributions he makes may be higher than Kawhi's but so too are his negative contributions (his lousy defense) and the net contributions (positives minus negatives) for me brings less to the table than Kawhi does.

I don't like the PF in your sig at all, he needs to be a SF (whether off the bench or in a big lineup with your 3). You need a real PF who's cheaper and can make jump shots

Gerald Wallace is actually a pretty effective PF well at least last year he was i dont know about this year
-
Yeah, I agree Leonard is the better player and Boozer is overpaid. Can't deny that.
Boozer is not anywhere near as bad a defender as people seem to think though. He is also an excellent rebounder.
I had no starting PF, and didn't see much chance of getting one at this point, so I had to take the gamble.
I should have moved Leonard sooner, but didn't think I'd need to, until a deal I had in place (that was primarily agreed to), fell apart do to an unfortunate circumstance.
I have a couple SF's in mind at this point with one of my two 4th round picks, but admit there is no way whoever I replace Leonard with will measure up.

Yea i can see where you're coming from and at 1.8 Kawhi is a better pickup than Boozer

Looking to move down from 4.15 to somewhere in the 4.20s range, would like to move up in another round (or something like 9.15 to 9.1)
Or possibly to the 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 picks
Or just a few hours late ;D
-
Couple young PF over here!
-
All my players are available for trade if anybody's wondering. Obviously it would take a lot more for me to trade Pierce and Dirk.

Available players list
* Note: This list isn't exhaustive. Teams are eligible to draft free agents or overseas players. However, you take a player in his current position. In other words, if he's currently injured, he's injured on your team. If he's under contract to an overseas team, he remains under contract for purposes of this game. For free agents who are eligible to play this season, please contact me and I will assign a salary to that player for purposes of this game.

TP Atzar on that great effort!

I'll kick off the morning a little early today.

Really soft in the middle defensively. Kobe is going to have a fit.

There's gotta be a run on SGs at some point, right? Some very good, rotation worthy fellers out there...

taking offers on 4.16 looking to trade back and pick up some additional picks

I don't know. I am not opposed to adding more big men to my rotation before I grab a SG.

My former co-GM and current amigo has put together a pretty nice team:
Big Al
Favors / Scola
Turner
Henderson
Rose
It's fair to say that fans of the Jazz would be ecstatic with that team.

pretty nervous about today...hopefully this draft can keep me distracted lol

Not a lot of spacing on the team. Need a few good shooters. Nice collection of talent, though.

Yeah, Turner and Henderson have begun to shoot efficiently on 3PTs, but it's still not a major weapon. If they can add that shot consistently will determine if this squad develops into a true contender, rather than just a solid playoff team.
Either way, better than what real Utah fans get to enjoy.
-
Kemba Walker on the block
-
To anyone who has my spreadsheet -
From SG-C, pink kind of represents when I gave up on ranking the position and took whatever rankings I had from the Summer. So there could actually be a few diamonds in there. I saw a rookie shooting guard there who probably deserves some consideration this round.
-
I believe i am up now with pick 4.4 which I acquired from IP via trade yesterday.
I'll take a guy to solidify my bigman rotation who has shown tremendous growth this year and for a big man I would say is probably underpaid.
Robin Lopez

I think R.Lopez is a great fit behind Horford and K-Love.
Gives you real size and length. R.Lopez alongside either Horford or Love would give you one of the biggest frontlines in the league. Intimidating power and physical size.

Check back through them and see if you traded your pick or not.

No, ETO is a player option.

Taking Earl Clark
Good rebounder, defensive versatility, can hit a corner three. Also cheap, and that's starting to matter for me.

ETO is like a player option. You just have to opt out (ETO) instead of opting in (player option). That is the difference.

Yeah.
I thought he was a good option as a PG. I understand he played less games, but very good offensive numbers in and out. He has the leadership too.

The Warriors are going to take Marco Belinelli

Good pick, yoki. Billups fit in well with your team. Planning on starting him at pg?

Cool.
Taking Caron Butler. Puts a little bit of a squeeze on my budget for the rest of the draft, but getting a SF of his caliber this late is too good to pass up.

Monta Ellis for Luol Deng
I think Monta could work as a PG alongside JJ (SG) and Iggy (SF).
-
So it appears there are two picks from today's morning session that have yet to be made, is that right?
Not sure what the rules are on that, but I'll be nice, and wait until 1:20 to make my pick.
Of course, if someone out there wants to make me an offer, I will consider.

Ouch.
I think that would be an atrocious downgrade for Yoki. I've long said that I don't think there's a way to make Monta Ellis a key piece on a contender, and I still agree with that.
Deng, on the other hand, is a very high end role player.

I don't. Monta Ellis gets passed around on these drafts probably more than any player in the league, and that's because he's an intriguing talent, but a player who doesn't really fit anywhere.
Deng is a fantastic fit along with Noah and AI2. I think those three need to remain, no matter what Chicago does.

Yeah I'm at around 56.71. Not ideal right now but doable
-
I like Monta Ellis a great deal if you can negate his limitations as a defender and as a floor general. I think Chicago can do that by playing him at PG defensively and by keeping Iggy + JJ to play alongside Monta in a non-PG centric offense.
I think Monta would bring more to the table for Chicago in that setup than Deng would if they keep things the way they are.

I think I'd do that, in order to preserve the Iggy/Deng combination on the wings. That's a real strength of Yoki's team, to me.

Not sure what the rules are on that, but I'll be nice, and wait until 1:20 to make my pick.
Of course, if someone out there wants to make me an offer, I will consider.
Ur up, dogg
-
Willing to send Holiday and 2 early 5ths for a center and possibly a late 4th (not neccessary)
very tempting offer but the decent centers (replacements) appear to be pretty much off the board already.
-
Monta is on the block. Looking for an upgrade at SF.
Monta Ellis for Luol Deng
I think Monta could work as a PG alongside JJ (SG) and Iggy (SF).
Ouch.
I think that would be an atrocious downgrade for Yoki.
I think Chicago would be a better team for that trade.
I don't. Monta Ellis gets passed around on these drafts probably more than any player in the league, and that's because he's an intriguing talent, but a player who doesn't really fit anywhere.
Deng is a fantastic fit along with Noah and AI2. I think those three need to remain, no matter what Chicago does.
Would you trade Joe Johnson for Monta Ellis?
I think I'd do that, in order to preserve the Iggy/Deng combination on the wings. That's a real strength of Yoki's team, to me.
I'd really consider an Ellis-for-Johnson deal, but I'd have to dump Butler for a pick first. Taking on Johnson basically means that I'd be shopping out of the bargain bin for the rest of the draft.

Ouch, yeah. Without moving Butler, you'd have less than $5 million to round out the roster.

Yeah, I am not sure that is a good trade for Washington.
I don't think they get enough out of JJ with him being third in the pecking order behind Parker and Pau to make that extra salary worth taking on.
I would do the Deng trade though. A lower usage (offensively) guy who can make a larger impact as a defender and rebounder. I think he'd be a great fit in Washington. Give them real physical and mental toughness.

Great pick. It was between Mbah a Moute and Ariza for my pick. I decided Ariza didn't fit my team's offense well so I went with Mbah a Moute as my first choice.
Always loved Ariza's game.

Nice pick. You don't need Ariza to score in that starting lineup. Let him just focus on defense, and scoring garbage points/crash the boards on offense.
Also like Martell coming off the bench at either SG or SF now.

Webster and Jennings are available for the right deal.

Knicks have the next 2 picks (4.22 is from the Millsap deal).
I'll go one at a time because I'm still deciding, and of course for DRAMA.

-
Man the site is crawling. Don't they know some people have imaginary teams to build? >:(
At 4.22 I don't know if we'll start this guy but I don't want to risk him getting snapped up, so we'll take Jimmy Butler ($1.07) as our young defensive stopper on the wing.

Darn. I was starting to think Battier might continue to fall through the cracks and be there for my next pick. Very good addition.
Good pick. I hope you start him over Dudley.
That is an interesting idea. Battier is still the better man-to-man defender and Dudley plays best off the bench as the second line defensive player. Something worth thinking on.

Reference Seinfeld, ya that's a Tommy Point.
-
Wondering if I made a mistake, putting Kidd on the block for an upcoming pick.
-
I would just like to point out that my two most expensive players are Courtney Lee and Andrea Bargnani.
And on another note, I've already spent $66m, and that includes two players making the vet minimum. And I still have $16 million to spend on my bench.
It ain't Laker money, but my players are better.
As the great Charlie Sheen would say.........
WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, it's nice to have this little oasis of civility and sanity in this thread while the rest of the blog is on the bullet train to Crazytown.

Also offering a 6th and a 7th to get into the 5th round (and a later round pick)

It's a nice squad, but you lack a perimeter player who is of an elite status. Lucky for you, your shrewd cap management might allow you to buy a player from a team in cap peril.
Unless the Lakers steal said player.

Boo to everybody who took guys off Portland's list.

Willing to trade Gerald Wallace for a starting PF can throw in bass or picks depending on how good.

Meh. I think if you have two elite post players, and you're planning on working through them 'elite perimeter' offense doesn't mean all that much. I think it's more important to surround them with smart players who care capable shooters and who can move the ball around.
I'm sure I could acquire someone considered 'elite' (probably on a bad contract), but I don't think it'd really be worth it for my squad.

I didn't expect a miracle but if Morris from Houston was available for a 2nd round pick? Dude is 6'10 and only 23
-
Gotta say, after that third round just decimated my list of players I wanted on my team, I have to say, I am thrilled at the amount of players that were drafted in the fourth round that I would absolutely never think of drafting. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that they aren't good players or didn't deserve to be drafted so high, just that I would never draft them. So that's really good for the Lakers.

He's in the Oregon Zoo. Says he only wants to play for Portland, where it rains more than once a year.
Sorry, nick. Sometimes, it doesn't pay to be LA.

Yes, unless the 14th player is currently playing overseas. In that case, the team would hold that player's rights.

Had a heck of a day today. Got to ride 3hrs with my wife to Burlington to find out that there is zero chance our baby will have some congenital disorder that her uncle has. That was a relief. It was also incredibly frustrating because apparently no tests were needed, because a basic knowledge of genetics (which I alledgedly have) would've made that obvious to everyone but the gyno who recommended we go for the testing, which the doctor promptly informed us we didn't need, cuz science.
Did however get the chance to have a phenomenal linner (not a fan of Dunch) at the Farmhouse Tap And Grill that involved an IPA on nitrogen and a chance to try some incredibly tasty imperials. Plus the best latte of my life at Uncommon Grounds. I love Burlington.
But I finally got to checkout the draft board to see FWF done up and stoled my man Jimmy Butler. Not a fan of that.
So Im eager to make some awesome picks tomorrow. Who else is excited?

Needed more edge, more awkward, and more Donald Glover. We get it, Jeff and Annie are gonna something sometime. Enough. And Brita and Troy have about as much chemistry as two things that don't have much chemistry.

I know part of CelticsFan's motivation to move the picks is cuz he won't be available to draft at those times, or probably won't. Which is understandable to some degree why you might be willing to lose out on a trade a little, but c'mone mane.

I suppose that is understandable from a motivation standpoint, just seems like someone got taken advantage of here.
Personally, I would just let myself get skipped, and then make sure to make those picks sometime before midnight. Essentially you'd be turning the 5.20 and 5.26 into the 5.27 and 5.28.
Just my two cent, and I really don't know all the details. Last I'll say about it.

Congrats to IP. Pregnancy is a joy, but a stressful joy. Great news.
In terms of the deal, it's terrible, and I can see why other GMs feel a bit bamboozled. Still, 1) Itrust there was no collusion, and 2) this draft is for fun. No veto. If the GMs want to renegotiate to smooth things over with their peers, I have no objection.

saw the name options proposed and I think a better name would be Pierce Indeed Proceed because I know your kid will be a PIP ;D
Just don't name him/her Lucky Indeed Proceed because I know you don't want no LIP.
I could just go on for days with this but congrats on the test results!

Last night I had a trade proposed to me, i accepted, sent to the commisioner and planned out the my draft strategy for the day. the person that proposed it has now backed out.
If anybody wants to know more details so they know not to do business with the person in the future feel free to email me. Edgehead2287@yahoo.com

Not really mad about the value I was getting in the trade, mad that somebody would do that. Its not something I would consider doing, infact I have rethought trades but still gone through with them because I was a man of my word.
Others on the board here can attest to that.

Eh. I'd say just let it go. My take is that folks shouldn't back out of deals that they've agreed to. At the same time, this is for fun, and it was another one of those deals that's right on the verge of veto territory (although it would have been approved.) At the end of the day, there's no real harm done other than some wasted time and a loss of trust.

See it DOES happen. Roy can confirm the deal sent to me was very lopsided

I won't be here at pick time so I'll go now.
New York will bolster their perimeter shooting by grabbing Randy Foye and his 42.4% 3 pt shooting. Randy will start at the 2 situationally and do some spot PG work too.

2 wrongs don't make a right my friend. Does happen, but it shouldnt. Oh well, im ready to move on.
I have sent my list for pick 5.5 to Start Orien since I will be in a meeting.

Can't really say anything about the deal that fell through, but to the folks I've traded with here - this is why I always insist on confirmation before I'll make the move/draft your guy/whatever. Deal's not done til it's done.

Exactly when someone send you a proposal you got to send it back to them and if they say yes then you both agree to it send it to one of the commishes online

Over the past five games, the Timberwolves' second-year forward has averaged 16 points and nine rebounds. He had a season-high 24 points and a career-best 16 rebounds in the final game before the all-star break. Williams showed an ability to elevate his game while star forward Kevin Love continues to recover from a broken hand.
So He is
And that makes 3 Derricks in my team so that cant hurt

I really like the Derrick Williams pick too.
Great to add a player with such talent / potential in the fifth round.

5.6 Atzar is up

Taking Carlos Delfino.
One of the last SF's on the board who makes threes, plays defense, and isn't a complete nutcase.

I'll take Boris Diaw

Taking Carlos Delfino.

5.9 TruthFot18 is up

hate to be a pain in the butt again, but where are we at the draft?
and not that I'm trying to be a boss or anything, but may I suggest like what we did before, when every time we pick, we post an updated board with our picks? That way people won't get lost. Just a suggestion, Roy is still the boss.

Ideally I would have gotten Vince Carter with this pick, and then Delfino at 5.15 to come off the bench. But at least I got one of them.

Just dump BBD for a 6th-10th round pick. I am sure somebody with cap room would be happy to have him. It sounds like there are several teams about that have large amounts of surplus cap space.

Perk + Josh Smith is a great combination defensively.
Perkins with his physical size, post defense and toughness and Josh Smith with his speed, mobility and create turnovers with his disruptive roaming on team defense.
Similar to Ibaka and Perk in the actual OKC. Nicely done.

Good player but financially I think Chicago should have passed on that.
I would have had 5 million for 5 players. Unfortunately, Google screwed me by saying Chauncey is only making $2 M when he's making $4.

Open to moving pretty much anybody. PM me with offers. I'm also willing to take on salary.

I realize my pick is next, but I'm gonna take my sweet time I think. half the guys I was targeting just got swiped. Time to re-evaluate.
I'll take trade offers until 1pm.
Not cool.
Well, if you want to do a straight Kyrie for 5.13 swap, you'd be on the clock.

This is my first CB draft so I don't have much to compare to but it's funny how much trades have slowed down. People are being much more conservative the past couple days and even the deals that are being made are very small

You're getting to the point where team's have an identity.
Once that's formed it's tough to break up a team. Because a major trade means that you probably have to move 2 or 3 more other guys. For example, if I were to move Tim Duncan - all of a sudden guys like Shane Battier and Jared Dudley have infinitely less value to my team

I still think Chicago should have traded Deng instead. I like that Bulls team with Monta alongside JJ and Iggy on the wings. Less so with Deng there and no JJ.
I think Chicago would have been better off dumping Glen Davis and keeping their JJ, Iggy and Deng trio than making this move.
Very good upgrade for Washington. JJ is a really good player and he should fit in reasonably well alongside Tony Parker and Pau Gasol.

Why not? I get it. It's the CB Monta hate is it.
Chicago's defense is still stellar, maybe top 3 even with Monta (who averages 2 steals BTW). Albeit inefficient, he can still score 20 a game. He can find open teammates (5 assists per game).
Say everything about him. Cancer, chucker, etc. Chicago is not concerned. While it does not want to get rid of JJ, Chicago is still a team to beat in the East with this lineup, the team knows it and you guys know it.

Reason as to why Chicago agreed to take cursed Monta is because of Deng and Iggy. They can cover up whatever defensive flaw Ellis has.
JJ and Monta would be like Jennings and Monta, fighting over shots and not having good defense to give back. With Deng and Iggy, Monta can chuck shots, drop 30, and get covered defensively because both are stellar wing defenders.
-

I think its because Monta Ellis has been refusing to shoot over 40% from the field until someone gives him back his scooter.

TP to Yoki for the fierce defense of Monta - he's a flawed player, at times deeply flawed, but it sometimes feels like owners here would call him a detriment to any team in any context. I'm not a fan but he's really not that bad.
-
Monta Ellis is a well above average defensive player at PG.
When he wants to be, I agree. He could be an excellent two-way player if he made the commitment, but he hasn't done that yet.
He's spent his career on two dysfunctional teams: Golden State before their recent change of identity, and Milwaukee where he never fit in the first place. Maybe playing with a defined role on a real contender in Chicago is exactly what he needs.

To me I think you have a good set up for Monta Ellis. For him to be successful I think he needs someone to set him up for drives. An article a few weeks back on Grantland pointed out that a Monta Ellis drive is as valuable as a drive by almost any player. To me pairing him with a pass first point( whether it's a point guard or point forward) would lessen the amount of long 2's he takes and confine him to doing what he does best.
For that reason I think he would be well paired with CP3 or Iggy.

I think having that (1) extra ball-handler and passer in JJ as well as having (2) a true 2nd shot-creator and (3) quality strong long distance jump-shooter alongside Monta ... was very important to your offense working.
There isn't enough spacing now and there is no plan B when Monta isn't able to generate a quality shot for himself. Teams can back off Deng and Iggy and clog the driving lanes when Monta is on the ball. They can back off of Monta too and dare him into long jumpers. And when that happens neither Deng or Iggy (or Brand or Noah) are strong enough shot-creators to give you a quality second option offensively. The offense will still be one of the weaker ones in the league.
The perimeter defense with Monta, Iggy and Deng is spectacular but Chicago still would have had one of the best perimeter defenses in the league with Monta, JJ and Iggy.
I think you've lost more offensively than you have gained defensively by choosing Deng over JJ.

Those are my issues with Monta Ellis. If he's scoring 25 points per game for you, he's taking 25 shots, which is a net negative. He's second from last among qualified point guards in PPS, and his only saving grace is (Name Redacted) being the player we all thought he was.

I disagree.
While they are not shooting well from behind the arc, it's not a good idea to leave Deng and Iggy alone there. Besides, Deng always parks himself in the three point area, so he stretches the defense already, lay back on him and MOnta will find him 1-3 times, and he can hit that shot.
Big Baby has a perimeter game, he can run pick and pops with Monta, opening the floor for him once more to use that Mississippi Bullet speed of his and his ability to finish.
There is enough ability for this team to create floor spacing for Monta. Again, they may not be shooting at an efficient rate, but I dare anyone to leave Iggy and Deng wide open behind the arc. I dare anyone to leave Big Baby wide open 10-17 feet in the perimeter, because they can hit those shots and Monta can find them open.
And with the defense, Deng is way better than JJ.

Yea Jennings is a horrible fit for him. He really needs a pass first PG and a real post presence
In defense of Yoki's team (and the teams Ellis has been on), what I think Ellis really needs are floor-spacing bigs, and versatile, elite-passing wings.
He's managed to assemble that, at least with Glen Davis's jumper.
Still, I don't think any team that needs Ellis to be its leading scorer can be a contender.

For starters I personally don't view him as a PG at all. He's an undersized two. Also, playing on bad teams he's forced to put up a lot of shots, I mean who else is going to score in Miluakee? He has his flaws but I have yet to see him in a situation in real life where I think he fits.

1. That is true, but as long as he drops 25, Chicago doesnt mind.
2. As poor as he is, he averages 5 assists per game. He can find open team mates. Also, Iggy CAN set him up for easier shots.
3. He doesnt have to change playing style with this team.
4. He's over the mo-ped thing.
He's not the perfect player. He's not better than JJ, I get that. But he would not have a problem playing with this team.

That might be because the only place Monta really 'fits' is in 2008 highlight reels with people rocking 'We Believe' t-shirts.**
**Sorry, I don't actually believe that, Monta's not that bad of a player, just the zing was too good. I had to give it life.

43% is fine by us. We can improve that. But lets not forget, shut down wings, very good defensive anchor, a big who can take charges, rebounding like crazy? We can be a 43% shooting team, but we'll hold opponents to 40%
Also, Rondo, Varejao, Lou Williams are out for the year. Love and Pau are out for weeks as well, I don't see the argument here?
BTW, I once created a buzz in this draft because of a trade I made. My mission is complete.

I like the trade for both teams.
Yoki did well to preserve the defensive backbone of his team, got younger and cleared cap space, gets a better fit for his roster.

I hope 40%(i'd say probably also around 43%) is an exaggeration, it is a great team though but no floor spacing
Monta Ellis .227 3P% Worse for PG
Iggy .310 3P% Second worse for SG
Loul Deng .312 3P% 5th worse for SF
If you can bring in high efficient shooters your team will be even better but for now you hold the worse FG% and 3P% but in my opinion one of the best defenses and i'd guess you are still a contender
Edit: It is a lot like the real Chicago team

BTW, I once created a buzz in this draft because of a trade I made. My mission is complete.
I hope 40% is an exaggeration, it is a great team though but no floor spacing
Monta Ellis .227 3P% Worse for PG
Iggy .310 3P% Second worse for SG
Loul Deng .312 3P% 5th worse for SF
If you can bring in high efficient shooters your team will be even better but for now you hold the worse FG% and 3P% but in my opinion one of the best defenses and i'd guess you are still a contender
Again, I dare any team to leave Deng, Iggy and Baby wide open on three point landia and perimeter. They are shooting ineffectively this season, but their game is perimeter shots. They will hit those shots.
Teams want to clog the lanes, dare us to be beat by Deng and Iggy shooting threes? Fine by us, because they will hit those.

Brooklyn sends: 5.13 and 8.13
Portland sends: Jason Terry

Brooklyn sends: 5.13 and 8.13

I like Jason Terry in that backcourt alongside either George Hill or Kobe Bryant.
That is a really nice combination.
-
With the 5.13, Portland selects Ramon Sessions.
-
Chicago is a great defensive team(if not the best) but i think they can make the case for worst FG% shooting team
Monta Ellis .399
Andre Iguodala .441
Loul Deng .424
Glen Davis .448
Joakim Noah .458
You still need a four. I like my team defensively better but second place isn't bad.
Jrue Holiday 45.1%
Ray Allen 44.9% (41.45 3pt)
Kevin Durant 51.6%
Josh Smith 45.1%
Kendrick Perkins 48.3%
Jason Thompson 50.9%
Where's the love for OKC's fg%? :'(

Gah, darn it!!
That is who I was hoping to take with the next pick (5.14).

Ahhhhh I just tried to trade for that pick so I could take Ramon. Really suprised he lasted this long

Okay, New Orleans takes Chase Budinger.
A shooter with size to backup our non-shooter Mbah a Moute.
-
Anyone know if CelticConcourse is still in possession of the 5.15?

I was offered a nice pick swap to move down just a few slots from 5.13, but felt I couldn't afford to take it.

One confirmation down:
Wizards send: Caron Butler
Memphis sends: 5.15
Sorry for leaving you hanging for awhile. I was out for a bit.
It's all good!
And the 5.15 is listed in Atzar's sig.

Portland will consider offers for our two fifths, but only in exchange for players who have been drafted.
We'd trade both picks for a player and a later pick from you, if the fit is right.
-
I'll go with the nutcase...Lakers select Metta World Peace
Fitting, you're preety much the only team that can afford to pay this guy and not have it hurt your roster.
I knew you'd be drafting him eventually. World War belongs in LA.

One might also take note the fact that Yoki lives in San Fran (I think).
Likely, despite being a celtics fan, Yoki has been indoctrinated by years and years of 'this is the year monta finally pulls it together' radio spots, news stories, and conversations.
In fact, I think there is a chance it borders on Stockholm Syndrome. Yoki, are you in danger? Blink twice if yes!

Oh, for sure. And I'm only using Monta as an example. There's a few other polarizing players I could've used, Monta was just the latest.
And I like Monta myself. But let's not pretend that the CBlog community is the only place in the world where people think Monta Ellis is a bad egg.

He can play both. He just needs to be paired with a big that can score, because he can't. At all.

My guy is still available, and I know who I'm going to take, but I'm going to wait a little bit and just think about how things all fit together and how we're all connected and everything.

I don't think anyone knows yet or will know for another couple of years. He is still finding his best position. Learning how to defend players bigger than him + whether he can develop any semblance of offensive skills. Depends on his own development over the next few seasons.

Yes I do live in San Fran.
Yes, I've seen and heard that a ton of times on CSNBA, which is why Monta's jersey's never went on sale, because "this is the year he'll be an all-star" was always brewing.
But no, I was one of the guys in goldenstateofmind that keeps on saying "trade Monta" after they drafted Steph Curry. Don't get me wrong, I love my Dubs as well, I care too.
Blink, blink.
-
I really like the Biyombo selection.
Always nice to get guys who have lots of potential to improve and become difference makers down the road at this stage in the draft.
-
So I was between a few bigs, but in the end I decided I needed a shot blocking presence and some athleticism.
I will select the best center on the Pacers (for the money) in Ian Mahinmi.

Must be Friday, picks coming fast and furious!

I think it's smoothed over. For me, having offered something similar to him for just one of the picks it was kinda annoying, but at the end of the day - who cares?

You know what I realized? I realized that as long as Irving, Anderson, and Bynum are all on the court together, I would not want for points.
But I needed someone reliable to run the second unit, a sparkplug who could microwave to the heat of a thousand suns, as well as start a few games each year while Irving takes his perquisite2 weeks off with a strained hamstring.

But I needed someone reliable to run the second unit, a sparkplug who could microwave to the heat of a thousand suns, as well as start a few games each year while Irving takes his perquisite2 weeks off with a strained hamstring.
Thomas fits your squad well. Good pick-up
But when exactly is Bynum ever going to be "on the court"?
One week. Practicing in one week.
According to who? Gob Bluth?
ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT IS BACK ON????!!! Is it time to order Netflix???

Going to be getting to the point soon for some teams to post their salaries with their picks to show they can fit the pick in their cap space.
-
So, do folks want to try to do a coaches round beginning over the weekend (no set times), or skip it?
I say yes. Another angle to have fun with and something to keep interest going over the weekend.
I'd love it if there were set or even loose times -- say after an hour or two of no picks it moves onto the next person in queue.
-
Yep, I'm next. Let's keep it going.
With the 5.20, Portland selects Nick Collison.
-
Cavs select Isaiah Thomas, assuming he's still available.
One thing I don't like is that I'm wondering if you'd be better off with a back up pg who could play some 2. Thomas and Irving can't really share the court.

Really doesn't matter.
Well, unless you go and get some unknown name from college or overseas. That can hurt your team.

I have two guys that I want to pick with three picks left before me. If the two guys I want are picked before me you are going to have a full fledged whining session on your hands. IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?!

Yep, I'm next. Let's keep it going.
With the 5.21, Portland selects Nick Collison.
Best defensive PF available since Taj Gibson was drafted late in the first round.
I was hoping Brooklyn would draft N.Collison and slot him alongside Brook Lopez. I thought N.Collison should have gone a round or two earlier than he has done.
-
Going to be getting to the point soon for some teams to post their salaries with their picks to show they can fit the pick in their cap space.
Probably a good idea. I think there was already one team to go over their cap when including future picks.
Also, everyone needs to remember, shamsports is the "official" salary site for this excercise, not google, espn, etc...

I'm not sure some of the collison picks say he was selected at 5.20 and some say 5.21. So maybe he traded the pick?

First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.
-
I'll consider offers for the 5.26. I can include our 8th rounder if you can give us a wing player that we like better than who's left on the board.
-
Sorry folks. Thought I was up. Pretend my pick never happened.

I'm in serious trouble of over-thinking this and making a stupid pick.

Big Al do you still want Felton?

Yah sticking with my pick. Dallas selects Raymond Felton

Not sure he fits your roster, but makes good trade bait for a team looking for a starting caliber PG

Excellent pick.
I am always shocked when guys like M.Thornton don't get picked in the 4th/5th round (or 2nd/3rd in Pick II) by teams who are short of scorers / shot-creation.
Excellent value to get him this late in the process.
-
Lakers are ecstatic to come out of the 5th round with the two players they wanted all along.
With pick 5.24 the Lakers select Mike Dunleavy

I wanted to take him, it was either him or Isaiah Thomas.
But he looks like he took a step back this season, and that's no-bueno.
I give him a break because he plays on a bad team that doesn't move the ball that well and his minutes have been decreased which is an adjustment he had to deal with.
-
Yeah, I had Thornton and Stuckey as early 4th round talents. However, both have question marks, and salaries that exceed their production.

Yeah! First pick for Coaches round!

OK.
A little bit of a reach here, but he won't be there the next time we pick, and I think he'll fit perfectly with what we need.
With the 5.26, Portland selects Kyle Singler.

looking for good value at this point.
Miami takes BJ Mullens with 5.27. kid's shown improvement through the season and has posted some nice games of late.

It was between Budinger, Dunleavy and Singler for me.
I think this is about the right round for Singler. Not many more skilled SFs out there with legitimate size. Playing well for Detroit this season. Singler is on a bargain basement contract too so a little added value there.
-
I think Portland is one of the early favourites for best bench.
PG: Ramon Sessions
SF/PF: Kyle Singler
PF/C: Nick Collison
C: Jonas Valanciunas.

works either way -- I have them both ;D
-
Alexey Shved still available?
Yup.
5.28 Alexey Shved $2.93 mil
Really like this pick at this stage.
not me. I wanted him next round but went big instead
-
Taking offers for the next pick 6.1 also I'm looking for a 2nd banana to pair with wade , I will trade anyone on the roster

Even Dwyane Wade?

What y'all think about my Felton pick? Didn't really pick based on needs. Kinda picked based on value.
-
Just letting you guys know ill be picking MICHAELJORDAN as my head coach 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
-
Many props to my partner in crime, Lucky, who has been nailing the picks in this draft for our Blazers team.

Who's ready for a late-round blockbuster?

76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17
-
76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17
Now before you guys kill me for making this trade
I save 15 mil in cap space and ive been impressed by Brandon's last 2 games
-
JaVale McGee and other considerations on the block for a sturdy defensive center. Doesn't need to be a scorer.
-
Bucks won by a mile. Wow. Good job AB.
-
76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17
I like Westbrook and dislike McGee a lot. Bucks win because Russ is by far the best player in the deal, but PEK >>>jaFail
-
Bucks won by a mile. Wow. Good job AB.
Let's contend, baby!!!
-
Im willing to take ya'lls bad contracts :D
-
Bucks won by a mile. Wow. Good job AB.
Yup -- great job turning Pek and Jennings into Westbrook.
-
A great trade for Milwaukee for sure but i wouldnt say title contenders
-
Also if it is even possible i will send cash considerations for your picks
-

"Cash considerations" = up to 10 TPs.
Generally those type of deals will only be approved for 11th rounders, though.

I have an extra pick, so I'd like to package two later picks for an earlier one if possible. Let me know.

Thanks ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well Sixers finally moved Westbrook. Gotta say at one point I wanted Westbrook to head up a running team and came really close to a massive blockbuster but decided against it.
Great move for Milwaukee
-
76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17

definitely a trade you wouldn't have seen in the previous drafts. hate to see trades done for cap reasons as opposed to talent-based.
hmmm, maybe someone should throw me a lopsided deal with my cap room to sway my opinion ;)
-
76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17
76ers got a relatively good deal as well. Starting PG and C set, for not too much $

First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.
CC took Pops at #1, yes?

Yes, CC did take Pops with his pick.
Who is next, but is not required to pick until 10 am as far as I understand.

Trade's comin in Minnesota..should have a new look.
Don't take my coach!

I'm up if your trade partner is to confirm

Edit

Trade Confirmed:
PHX trades Brandon Bass & 6.1
MIN trades Dion Waiters & John Hensen
-
Taking all offers for 6.1
-
Sorry guys, gotta kick round six off way early..
Drafting doesn't resume until Monday, IIRC.
-
Ah sorry, I didn't notice that CC took Popovich yesterday otherwise I would've made my selection last night.
I am going to go with Tom Thibodeau. I think Thibs is the right guy to turn Anthony Davis into the defensive monster he is capable of becoming in a few years time. Kanter too. Thibs will be great for both my young bigs.

What y'all think about my Felton pick? Didn't really pick based on needs. Kinda picked based on value.
I was gonna pick him with 5.9 and 5.12 based on value alone but backed out. I have no idea why he lasted this long considering he's only making ~$4 mil
great pick
-
76ers trade: Russell Westbrook, JaVale McGee, 7.9
Bucks trade: Nikola Pekovic, Brandon Jennings, 7.17
Bucks win big...until I see how this fills their roster out
-
Looking to pick up a couple 6th round picks if anybody has multiple
-
IP is skipped in the coaches round... KG's Knee has until noon to make his choice.
-
Skipping guys when they're barely out of bed on a Saturday without even posting official times. Typical Hobbs.
Luckily, I hate nearly all NBA coaches not named Thibs or Popovich.
Guess I'll take Rick Carlisle though. Northern New York 4-Eva!!!!
-
Well I won't waste anyone's time here, seeing as how my choice of coach is ridiculously obvious.
Phil Jackson
-
Well I won't waste anyone's time here, seeing as how my choice of coach is ridiculously obvious.
Phil Jackson
Well, he's only going to coach 3 games out of 5, but he really was the only real option for you guys.

Lucky and Rebus are on the clock for their coach until 1:39pm.

You might be forgetting the Nets are owned by a Russian billionaire.
No expense will be spared, including a 50 man team of doctors, massuers, physical thearapists, or anything else needed to keep Phil going.
His new high-chair will make the one he had in LA look like something you'd find at Applebees.
-
Top of the morning to you all (or afternoon i guess)
Please, do not take my coach. And just a comment, I LOVE the salary cap idea, and wish in the next drafts we do, we include the salary cap thing as well. Although, next time, every team just has a similar cap limit.
And my team will lockdown your team.
-
Trade Confirmed:
PHX trades Brandon Bass & 6.1
MIN trades Dion Waiters & John Hensen
Big win for PHX here. Two very good players to build with.
Bass and 6.1 don't sound like much.
-
AirBellinelli is on the clock until 3:39pm.
(I'm not going to do this for every pick, so just add two hours to when the guy in front of you went on the clock.)

With The Marcus's skill-set, you'd rather have Batum+Collison and Val than West+Prince, IMO.

Anyone else feel like chris webber would be an incredible coach?
haha..not really. He's too hollywood to put in the work as an assistant coach, and I don't know if he's gonna get the Mark Jackson special.
Loves the game. Knows it inside out. Gets a lot of respect from younger players. Can relate to da kidz. Feel like hes a black version of the coach imma take.
Justin Bieber is no NBA coach you fool.
That doesnt mean we cant pick him
And I will heckle the begeezus out of you for it, so please do.
This pretty much sums up how I feel about Bieber

For us, we wanted to get a little younger and add a legit two-way wing to the Lillard/LMA core. With Jonas and Thabo, we've got five players who can grow together and hopefully develop great chemistry.
Parting with West was difficult, but I think the Collison/Jonas tandem will do fine at C, and allow LMA to shift back to his natural position.

Is it possible to make our coaching selection at the end of the draft? My pick may depend on whether a certain crazy dude is still on my team.
Let's just say it would be an interesting coaching selection.
Scratch that. Can we have assistant coaches, just for fun?
-
I'll take Kevin McHale.

Yeah, assistants and the like can be announced at any time after all 30 teams have named coaches. As you suggest, assistants are basically just for fun.

I am mad

The coaches round gives the teams stuck in the middle of the draft a chance to pick near the top. The GMs with the worst picks got the best keepers, and the teams with the least attractive franchises get high draft picks every round. The middle teams get nothing, so throwing them a bone in the coaches round seems far.

Well, in all fairness to Doc, he was 4th on my list of coaches I would have chosen.
Phil was my first choice, because quite simply, Kobe without Phil is like peanut butter without jelly. My second choice was a college coach (and my all time favorite coach ever). My third choice was Thibs, and then Doc.
He's a good coach, but there are definitely better coaches.

Any feedback on Portland's deal?
Whats the deak?
Portland trades David West and Tayshaun Prince
Minnesota trades Nic Batum and Brandon Bass
Hmm ... I don't really like that move for Portland.
I think David West is comfortably the best player in the deal. I think it is a close call who the second best player is between Batum and Tayshaun Prince. I actually have them side by side on my rankings. Tayshaun ahead of Batum.
I understand it sets Portland better in terms of the future with Valanciunas and Batum taking bigger roles but they had such a good team in the present tense. Shame to see that broken up.
I think it is a really good deal for Minnesota. Bolsters up their talent level.

I like Batum quite a bit better than Prince, especially since Portland's best players are fairly young. However, I agree that the gap between Batum and Prince is much closer than the gap between West and Bass.
I worry that Portland lacks sufficient offense in its starting lineup, now. I like Thabo and Prince individually, but not next to one another.

I worry that Portland lacks sufficient offense in its starting lineup, now. I like Thabo and Prince individually, but not next to one another.
I am still not really sold on Batum as a star player.
Batum is still too undependable as a shot-creator. Creating for himself, making plays for himself off the dribble. I think Batum is still more of a 4th/5th option offensively than he is a genuine 3rd option player. Similar to Tayshaun.
I like Batum's superior long distance shooting over Prince (a big plus for Batum) but Prince has a greater versatility in the types of two point shots he can make including a strong post game.
I also consider Prince a better ball-handler and passer. I think Prince's main value over Batum in that area is his sound decision making and composure on the ball. Tayshaun is one of the few SFs who can actually run and initiate an offense from the SF position. Batum still a bit too rushed and erratic. Turnover prone.
I think they are both pretty similar as defenders and rebounders. Both players are well above defensively but neither are elite. Batum still has considerable room for improvement defensively though.
I'd say Tayshaun is still a little better at defending their primary position (SFs) but Batum has more range in his ability to cover PGs in addition to the SGs + SFs Tayshaun can defend.
Anyway, that is why I am not quite there on Batum yet. Still a few too many question marks on his offensive game and has yet to reach his peak defensively.
I really like Tayshaun Prince. I think he is one of the most versatile players in the league. So many tools offensively and still so good defensively.

First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.[/color]

BleedGreen is on the clock until 2:42pm.

Since Doc Rivers was just chosen I'm going to go with somebody who I believe is a big part of Indianas success and deserves his first head coaching job.
Minnesota Timberwolves take Brian Shaw

Fun fact about Ryan Anderson: Among qualifying power forwards (IE, those who play at least 6 minutes per game), he ranks 7th in estimated wins added (EWA) with 6.7. That means its estimated he adds nearly 7 wins per season over what the average NBA power forward would contribute. The guys ahead of him are Blake Griffin, Tim Duncan, LaMarcus Aldridge, David Lee, David West, and Paul Millsap.
Did you guys also know that even on a bad team like New Orleans, Ryan Anderson still outscores opposing 4's by 8 points per 48 minutes, and limits his man to just a 13.5 PER, while chipping in a PER of 19.0 himself? Were you aware that on the Magic, next to a more dominant center, his numbers were usually better?
Ryan Anderson, the ideal guy to put next to your coveted center to take your team to the next level. He ain't cheap, but he's on the block, and I will move him. Separate yourself from the pack, be a lead dog. Go out and get Ryan Anderson.

The PF is not mediocre, but the C is tied for least points scored, least rebounds, least assists, least blocks, and least steals this season.

I would be very reluctant to part with Ryan Anderson on a team with Kyrie Irving (dribble penetration) and Andrew Bynum (post threat).
Ryan Anderson would have such a massive effect on that team's offense with his prolific and accurate long distance shooting at the big forward position.
R.Anderson makes it so difficult for any opposing team to send effective help defense onto Kyrie's dribble drive game and/or A.Bynum's low post scoring. It's that lack of help defense and/or inability to help and recover that is so key. Creates so many higher percentage scoring opportunities not just for himself but for others.

Leonard ain't happening, moved on. Couldn't find a deal.
But for the record, my mediocre next to your center in place of your power forward makes your team a better one. Better offense (more suited to running the triangle with Lopez), better defense (you'll be able to defend power forwards at an NBA level now), and he's cheaper.

IP, if you need a third team to get a deal done, Portland will be your marionberry.

That means its estimated he adds nearly 7 wins per season over what the average NBA power forward would contribute. The guys ahead of him are Blake Griffin, Tim Duncan, LaMarcus Aldridge, David Lee, David West, and Paul Millsap.
Did you guys also know that even on a bad team like New Orleans, Ryan Anderson still outscores opposing 4's by 8 points per 48 minutes, and limits his man to just a 13.5 PER, while chipping in a PER of 19.0 himself? Were you aware that on the Magic, next to a more dominant center, his numbers were usually better?
Ryan Anderson, the ideal guy to put next to your coveted center to take your team to the next level. He ain't cheap, but he's on the block, and I will move him. Separate yourself from the pack, be a lead dog. Go out and get Ryan Anderson.
Well, you have a top-2 dominant Center on your team, so why are you trading Anderson?
Seems like someone may be doubting said center's chances of a comeback ;D
He's just trying to trick some unsuspecting GM into a bad deal for his mediocre PF.
He's targeting Kawhi. I guarantee it.
Let's just say that the asking price for Anderson is high, really high, too high
-
I think Carlos Boozer will be excellent in the Triangle.
Very similar to an old Karl Malone in terms of his skill-set offensively with his high BBIQ, strong passing, tough screens, strong two point jump-shooting and solid finishing around the basket. Excellent fit.
It is Brook Lopez that I be worried about in the Triangle. A non-passer like B.Lopez at center in an offense that relies so heavily on it's center to move the ball. Bad combination. Not a Phil Jackson player for me. It is going to take a lot of growth from B.Lopez for him to make it under Phil.
I think Matt Barnes had a lot of trouble with the Triangle too when he was in LA. Didn't he complain about the Triangle? That he had problems learning it? It was too different to other offenses in the league? That he didn't understand it well enough.

Leonard ain't happening, moved on. Couldn't find a deal.
But for the record, my mediocre next to your center in place of your power forward makes your team a better one. Better offense (more suited to running the triangle with Lopez), better defense (you'll be able to defend power forwards at an NBA level now), and he's cheaper.
So even though Boozer has better DRtg and DWS numbers THIS SEASON, and for his entire career, you're telling me Anderson is the better defender?

I think Ryan Anderson might be the new Kyle Lowry of IP :o

Barnes is the one guy in my line-up I am not in love with. Ideally, I'll find a better starting SF here shortly. I'm not going to ask him to do anything besides play defense, rebound, and hit ocassional 3's. He's perfectly capable of doing all three, just better suited to a bench role.
Lopez should be fine, in my opinion. He's fairly equal to Bynum on the offensive end.

So for the month of February Jeff Teague has averaged
18 points
9 assists
2 rebounds
1 steal
all while shooting 50%
not saying I'm looking to trade him, just saying ;D
Edit: oh yeah, all that for a measly 2.4mill a year
-
Also, for those of you shopping for a PG, In the month of February Kemba Walker is averaging
17 points
5 assist
3 rebounds
1.7 steals
oh and there's this little snippet from rotoworld
Walker is on fire, scoring at least 24 points in three straight games, is shooting lights-out, and the Bobcats are showing no signs of reeling him in. He's had a great season and along with Greivis Vasquez, has been one of the most pleasant point guard surprises of the season

Offensively he was a mess in the triangle.
Neither him or Artest ever seemed to really figure it out.

Seems like someone may be doubting said center's chances of a comeback ;D
No, just figuring that I've got something people want, and seeing what I can get for him. I don't doubt Bynum coming back, but I do doubt my ability to find the talent I want to round out my team with the remaining picks.
So I think I can afford to lessen my talent at the 4 if it means I'm getting a return I feel is favorable.
Ryan Anderson is probably one of the best players in the league to put with Bynum. I dunno what you're looking for, short of LeBron
Its why i drafted him. He also happens to be an ideal 4 for lots of other teams too. That's why I'll probably trade him.
Ideally, a 15 year advancement in medical science would probably be the best pairing for Andrew Bynum

These guys?

Im open to offers

Rumour has it IP is contacting this company called Skynet to fix Bynum. Hey it may mean the end of humanity but IP has a team to build. ;D

So the GM who offered me Klay Thompson for some middle round picks should have been forced to go through with it? I would have liked it but it didn't happen.
As I've told people, play the team you have, not the one you might have if a trade happens.

I tend to agree with Rondo here. In legal terms, a contract is an offer, plus acceptance. Once that happens, both parties are bound. If we were more cutthroat in this draft, I'd hold people to that.
Here's an easy way around that: phrase your trade offers in a non-binding way, such as "I'm not sure if I'd do this, but what do you think about X for Y?" It doesn't have to be that exact language, but something that conveys that you're pondering multiple scenarios.

1.56
2.59

1.48
2.76
and if the person accepts there is no backing out or saying ill also need your third or i got a better offer so you will have to beat it

I don't remember writing those words. My point was it's not an isolated incident by or against one person. It's not ideal for anyone involved.
And what;s the difference between offering player A and B as opposed to asking how they feel about doing a trade for players A and B? Both sound like an offer to me and I know this can be confusing. Perhaps work in a draft rule regarding trade talk lingo?

Offering is a statement so if a person says yes it should be done
Asking how they feel is a question

In the example I gave, it was the "I'm not sure if I'd do this" part that makes it non-binding. That clearly conveys that you're brainstorming, rather than making a binding offer.
I've had plenty of experience with trades over the years, and I think it's very important to 1) be clear when making trade proposals, and 2) stick to your word.
The only way I can see backing out of a deal would be if you had a typo, and somebody accepted a deal you clearly didn't want to make. Otherwise, I think you are at least morally bound to go through with a deal, even if you're having second thoughts.
-

I'd add to this, if a stipulation is added that making a specific deal is dependant on another deal you have lined up going through, and are clear about it, there shouldn't be any hard feelings, nor are you "morally bound".
-
I've offered a package before and reconsidered it. If you feel like you don't want it, say so. Immediately after you doubt the offer.
Officially, trades aren't final until the confirmations are sent in. Unofficially making offers then refusing your proposal after someone accepted it without attempting to make them aware youre no longer in favor of it, or canceling after accepting a trade is poor form and is strongly discouraged. We like to try to operate on good faith here.
-
I feel like if you offered a trade, but cancelled it before they accepted it... it's fine.
To be honest, I really think you can drop out of the deal any time before you send the confirmation message. If you send it, it's done. But, if you both agreed to it and one person didn't send a confirmation, said person should still be able to cancel.
It's not very nice, but it makes sense (to me at least). ;D
I did it once, because somebody accepted my deal too fast (sorry Truthfot) and it didn't feel right. If someone says "Yea" in like 5 seconds, it usually means it's so obviously favored towards them that they need to get the deal done ASAP.
Another time, I had a great deal but said that I wanted to think it over. When I finally said, "Let's do the deal," they cancelled it (that's you, AB!) and I didn't get my great deal :( But he should have been able to. I'm not against it (even though I'd have a cheaper PG and a star instead of Greivis)
So... yea. I think you should be able to withdraw anytime prior to messaging Roy (or other mod)

I think this philosophy is a good way to get yourself black-listed by other GMs, or worse, targeted as a GM that others want to take advantage of.
It's dirty pool. Not only is it not nice, it's inherently dishonest, and it creates grudges.

Think about it this way. Say, Portland offered JJ Hickson for a Boston second-rounder at the very beginning of the season, way before his resurgence. Now, he's one of the best big-men in the league, a double-double machine. Can Boston simply accept the deal now, seeing that Portland offered this deal six months ago? NO. Portland gets time to reconsider the deal, and will, obviously, decline. Except, this isn't a period of six months, it's a period of an hour or two. However, it's the same thing. One person had agreed to a deal, but now the deal is two-hours old and sentiments have changed. Therefore, the offerer is no longer obligated to follow through on the deal.
(I'm not part of this! I only did it once! Don't put me on the no-trade list ;D)

I'm not against it (even though I'd have a cheaper PG and a star instead of Greivis)
So... yea. I think you should be able to withdraw anytime prior to messaging Roy (or other mod)
See this is where I have the problem.
I send offers as a feeler since you never know if you'll hear back from them. You are correct CC, unless both parties send it to Roy or other mods, it can't really be official. Also for some reason I can't see my sent box so I forget most offers I send.
-
I feel like if you offered a trade, but cancelled it before they accepted it... it's fine.
To be honest, I really think you can drop out of the deal any time before you send the confirmation message. If you send it, it's done. But, if you both agreed to it and one person didn't send a confirmation, said person should still be able to cancel.
It's not very nice, but it makes sense (to me at least). ;D
I did it once, because somebody accepted my deal too fast (sorry Truthfot) and it didn't feel right. If someone says "Yea" in like 5 seconds, it usually means it's so obviously favored towards them that they need to get the deal done ASAP.

Yeah, me neither. I think there's a box you can check for "save a copy in my inbox" though. I am too lazy to use it, so when someone says "wait let me consider that deal" I always have to respond "what deal? O_o o_O"

I think this philosophy is a good way to get yourself black-listed by other GMs, or worse, targeted as a GM that others want to take advantage of.
It's dirty pool. Not only is it not nice, it's inherently dishonest, and it creates grudges.
Think about it this way. Say, Portland offered JJ Hickson for a Boston second-rounder at the very beginning of the season, way before his resurgence. Now, he's one of the best big-men in the league, a double-double machine. Can Boston simply accept the deal now, seeing that Portland offered this deal six months ago? NO. Portland gets time to reconsider the deal, and will, obviously, decline. Except, this isn't a period of six months, it's a period of an hour or two. However, it's the same thing. One person had agreed to a deal, but now the deal is two-hours old and sentiments have changed. Therefore, the offerer is no longer obligated to follow through on the deal.
(I'm not part of this! I only did it once! Don't put me on the no-trade list ;D)
Again falling back on contract law, but an offer remains open until its rescinded. If a deal is no longer on the table, do the other GM the courtesy of knowing that, especially if it was 5 minutes ago that you made the offer.
-
To break up the arguing, I'm gonna make my coach pick.
Lionel Hollins
He knows how to be a champion - won a title as a player - and he knows how to develop young talent and get them all headed in the right direction. I think he's a good fit with my players.
Plus, as airbelinelli will tell you, I have a weird obsession with the Grizzlies.

So basically, if you make an offer and don't rescind it, it could still be accepted say, thirty years later, and you would have to agree to it. (real life hehe)
I guess that's kind of weird, but I feel at some point, the contract should automatically become VOIDED for simply being too outdated.
A twelve-hour acceptance period, or the deal goes away ;D

He made a mistake and I gave him a hard time but it was so bad I knew it was a mistake. But go ahead and lead the mob of forcing the trade

For their coach the Lakers select Larry Brown.

I'm a firm disbeliever in the coaches round, and I won't continue to bring it up but...
LARRY BROWN AND DWIGHT HOWARD?!
-
Regarding the whole trade confirmation thing, this is what I usually do. If a GM offers me a deal and I accept. I usually re quote the original proposal and ask if they would still like to go along with it. Try to have the other GM confirm the deal multiple times. It might be a lot more complicated but it prevents any type of confusion and bad blood. Just my 2 cents.

Which is why it is probably bad practice to accept a deal so quickly. Generally, I like to take my time and mull things over.
Personally, I don't think this a bad discussion to have. Let's everyone get a feel for what other's expect.
-
Was thinking -
Wonder if we could make a short but sweet briefer to new draftees. Maybe some advice on trading. This draft was SO much better in the past cuz the new guys seemed to have a good idea of what they were doing, but we've seen so many times where superstars are being traded without even a mentioning of their availability.
One trick I use a lot is that in the early going if I'm going to make a trade I always ask for a mid round pick swap as a sweetener. A lot of times since the 4th or 5th round seems so far away people will miscalculate how big it is to slide 20 picks down.

<-- Gimme dat star.

I think that "Generally, I like to take my time and mull things over." would change everything. When I made my bad deal, it was because it was so lopsided the other person could accept right away (in 5 seconds) and I would be forced to follow through on it.
If everyone took time, then there would be few lopsided deals... what is the point of this draft if there are no lopsided deals? ;D
Someone's gotta get scammed! :)

I can see it now, the new to Celticsblog drafts primer:
1. Don't trade with Roy
2. Be careful of IP hyping his players
3. Always agree to a deal with Rebus, he's Canadian.

Roy is the trade master so when I said don't trade with Roy, it was a warning, you're not winning. (I am not saying this to avoid legal action ;D)

First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.[/color]
-
I'll take Kevin Mchale. I think Reuniting Love with Mchale and getting Mchale around Horford and Lopez should continue the growth of my frontcourt into the best in the league.

I must have missed some trade this weekend. I didn't have that order. Oh well, will fix on the fly.

Minnesota Timberwolves select the former #2 overall pick Michael Beasley
Might not be a popular pick but I like his value at this point. Tied up for 5mill a year for the next 3 years and still 24 years old. Not relying on him to be a huge contributor but I think he can still be saved. I still believe!

Minnesota Timberwolves select the former #2 overall pick Michael Beasley
Might not be a popular pick but I like his value at this point. Tied up for 5mill a year for the next 3 years and still 24 years old. Not relying on him to be a huge contributor but I think he can still be saved. I still believe!
I really thought the move to Phoenix was going to be great for SuperKewlBeas. That whole team is just a disaster right now, tho.
-
Have 7.24 and 8.24 for sale to get into the 6th round.
-
At 6.10 Chicago selects one of his binkies (since everyone is picking their binkies) Brandon Rush.
Very good defender, underrated rebounder and a great shooter. Can play both wing positions too. $4 Million.

Hey guys I think Marvin Williams has already been picked - can anyone confirm?

FINE, FINE, FINE!!!
(bunch of know-it-all draft correctors)
Warriors will take DeShawn Stevenson
And if someone tells me he is taken as well, I will just pick again. (now back to grading some tests)
-
Hey guys I think Marvin Williams has already been picked - can anyone confirm?
a bit of piling on or a lot of people champing at the bit to get this moving along
-
Wow who took NOVAKAINE away from me
-
OK no idea how this will be received even on this board but I'm going to go back to my youth movement and get Jared Sullinger to be my backup to Thad Young and who can still stretch the floor for me
-

we are purposefully piling on just to be jerks. A little bit of draft humor

a bit early but I do like that pick for the future

Also I have a ton of cap room so if youre getting squeezed I can try and make some deals for you.
And think for my team which is built for the future hes the best big man left. Potential is there to be great

Given the complete rainbow of different reactions on the Sully pick, I would say that Denver made a very smart pick at about where it should have been made. Well done.

Good compliment to Thad Young as well. Shan't be playing this season though, I'm afraid.
-
Well, this is interesting. I came into today with three names that stood out at the top of my list, well above any other names, and all three are still there.
Tough choice to make here. Be back after lunch with my selection.

Alright people get in your best offers for kawhi/ Wallace I want to make a move before my pick this afternoon. They will both be off the block for good by my pick. ;D

While we're at the break, two requests:
1. Please bestow some TPs on Who, IP, Roy, and anyone else who's helped clean up the draft board, post trade confirmations, and/or otherwise helped run this thing.
2. Portland is fielding trade offers for Bass, Singler, and/or Sessions. We have two firm offers on the table right now, so if you've not been contacted by us and are feeling discouraged about the talent left on the board, please send me and/or Rebus your offers. Reasonable offers get TPs.

Detroit hires Billy Donovan, but at the last minute he backed out so instead they hire Patrick Ewing. Because if no one gives him a chance in the real NBA, we should.

So, a brief history:
I offer you a trade for Battier about a week ago which I thought wasn't a bad offer considering your financial constraints but we didn't see eye to eye. That's completely fair.
You ignore an inquiry when you say everyones available for Marion. Because, well, I'm not sure. I was ready to give you Garnett and Duncan for him.
You then again respond 'everybody's available!' which is silly because you're not responding to your PM's which is the only way I know people make trades. And then cite a trade offer I gave you about a week ago on the forum.

I like it. If I wasn't in a salary crunch, I would have taken him over Nate in this round. Similar players, but I find that Barea is a little less likely to do things that make you question your own existence.

Rockets take Festus Ezeli

Rockets take Festus Ezeli
Great pick.
Main downside to taking Amare + Kanter, I didn't get to draft Ezeli!
I was planning on making him my starting center at the beginning of this. Nice cheap option. Spend the cash somewhere else instead of a high priced third or fourth tier starting center.
I love Ezeli!

Darnit. He's played well as of late and was a guy I was considering.

Expensive. Quality signing.
-
Odom has been actually having a solid season.
99 DRtg, 14.4 opponent PER (against PF's), 16.9 TRB%
Offensively, yeah, he's struggled, but I like the pick at this late stage of the draft. Solid defensive player.

The IndiPac make a rash decision and select Lamar Odom
That rash you feel is a case of the Kardashians, I think.
"In the season premier of Chloe and Lamar go to Indiana...Lamar tries to force his way out of Indiana."
It just feels right.

First pick is due by 10:00am Saturday.
Subsequent picks are due 2 hours from when the guy in front of you went "off the clock" (either because he was skipped or because he picked.)
Example: if CelticConcourse doesn't pick, Who goes on the clock at 12:00pm. However, if CC picks at 9:50am, Who's pick is due by 11:50am.
The draft times will be between 8am and 6pm. If the guy in front of you picks later than 6pm, your pick isn't due in two hours. Rather, you have until 8am to get your selection in.[/color]
-
If you're a young team, and you don't pick my man at shooting guard next I will fight you.
And by fight, I mean I'll find a way that you and I can play Streetfighter II: Tournament Edition against each other, and I'm going to pick Blanka and just hold down and a the whole time.

And he doesn't do any one thing well enough to compensate being not so great at the other things.

A nice foil to Bargnani. Psycho will be the chippy guy who comes off the bench and gets under opposing players' skin. Every roster could use one of those guys, I think.

alright, I guess for the coaches pick I'll take Jeff Van Gundy. at least he's a better coach than he is a commentator (which isn't saying much)
-
First, my coach is Mike Woodson.
Second (and this is because I need to splash some cash to make the floor), Spurs take Richard Jefferson for some much needed veteran presence.

Trading sevenths for,players
So... you're looking to trade a 7th round pick for a player someone thought was worth picking before the 7th round?
Hey, I have a nice shiny dime for any looking to get rid of a dirty quarter ;)
Note that I used the plural form of seventh: sevenths
but I used the plural form of player, to indicate I was looking for any player ;D
Sorry for the grammar screwup?
just having fun with you CC.

Gonna be tough to find a starting SG at this point to justify this move.

That's my issue with it. Crawford needs to be given the ball and plenty of shots. He's not going to get that starting between Durant and Jrue.
He's a great 6th man, but OKC needs a floor-spacing SG to start. In giving up their 6th and 7th rounders, I'm not sure they're going to find that (if that player is still out there at all.)

I don't think Shved is reliable enough to play a starting role on a contender. He's shooting 37% from the floor and 30% from three, and his defense is very questionable.
He's got skills, and lots of potential, but he's not there yet. Of some concern is that he doesn't seem to have gotten much better as the season has gone on; if anything, there's been some regression.

I've poured through pages of player lists, and the talent pool for players that are actually NBA rotation caliber is very slim now. About all that is left are backup PGs and 4th string bigs.
Ultimately, I think you hurt yourself more than however much you may have helped yourself here.

Mostly he's looked like a rookie who hit a wall and or got figured out by the league. I think Shved has a future, but that doesn't include full time starter for a contender in the next 3-4 years.

I hate not having 4 picks in the next round. I have guys in my mind who I would feel confident using to round out my rotation. Maybe, I'll get one. Very frustrating. And they keep playing well, which is more frustrating.

Point of interest. The Spurs currently have 6 players on their roster, for a toal of $24.38m.
Meanwhile, the Nets currently are at $75.33m, lead by Kobe Bryant who, at $27.85m, makes more than the Spurs' entire roster.

Available players list
* Note: This list isn't exhaustive. Teams are eligible to draft free agents or overseas players. However, you take a player in his current position. In other words, if he's currently injured, he's injured on your team. If he's under contract to an overseas team, he remains under contract for purposes of this game. For free agents who are eligible to play this season, please contact me and I will assign a salary to that player for purposes of this game.

I want a 3pt specialist to go with Allen and Martin
6.28
Jimmer Fredette
Showing some good improvement in Sacramento. I can't help but wonder if that roster and coaching staff has been holding him back. Sacramento is such a mess. Especially that backcourt (Tyreke, M.Thornton, A.Brooks, I.Thomas, Fredette).

Ultimately, I think you hurt yourself more than however much you may have helped yourself here.
"I got shooters out the D League"
I wouldn't have made the move with the picks if I didn't already realize the talent pool dried up. So I have up some 5-10 minute scrubs in the 6th and 7th, nbd. I could've grabbed a few decent names but besides perk all positions are heavily jammed for minutes (perk and smith have Thompson).
Goals next few rounds are a backup pg between Jrue and Crawford. A stand in at SF for Durant while he takes his 4-5 mins off and a big to fill in the front court reserve.
Criticize if you like but I'm very happy where I am with my squad. As I've said I've messed up my last two CB draft squads so at the very least I like seeing my drafts improve

Nope, but im sure there are plenty of contending teams that would love ray allen at 3 million per that philly could flip for good prospects. In addition to that he got the best picks.
If i were looking to win this year I would much rather have ray than crawford.

Thanks for the update Who

7.1 PHX selects CJ Watson

But if 7.2 and 7.3 picks within the next 15 mins I'll be good to go.
-
Ill take Stan Van Gundy as my coach
-
And Patrick Mills with 7(3)
-
And Patrick Mills with 7(3)
Always liked him.
-
7.4 - Landry Fields
7.5 - Marreese Speights
Edgar gave me two names for 7.2, one listed as his preference, but I can't tell if he made a final decision. I'll give him a few moments before announcing.
-
There goes two guys off my list.
-
kind of surprised Speights lasted so long
-
Landry Fields is a really nice pick in the 7th round.
-
kind of surprised Speights lasted so long
Yeah I almost took him over Ed Davis in the 4th. Good pick for this round.
-
Ill take Stan Van Gundy as my coach
nevermind - confused the nerdy looking brother for the Ron Jeremy-looking brother :P
-
Fields is a pretty big disappointment to me. $6 million+ for what? 4.8 points?
-
Me with the 7.6?

Roy,
Who did you make these picks for?
-
Fields is a pretty big disappointment to me. $6 million+ for what? 4.8 points?
I think asking him to be much more than a rotation caliber player, below average starter in the future is a bit much. I don't think he'll ever get much better.
But that said, I don't think he's nearly as bad as he's been playing.

Don't get me wrong, the salary doesnt match the production. I knew that, but I also knew that talent wise and ability to back up two positions he was clearly the best available. I think from a talent perspective there wasnt anybody like him left on the board at the SG/SF positions
I think he is currently being underutilized in toronto and is capable of more than what his stats show. (I personally am not sure they ever wanted him, I think they expected the knicks to match)

I think if he's hitting his 3pt shots, he should be starting over Brewer. If he's not hitting his 3's, he doesn't belong on the court.
Kinda weird how that one skill makes his whole game viable or void.

The problem is that he's been getting around 22 minutes per game in Toronto, and is averaging those 4.8 points. His defense has been spotty, and he's shooting 11% from three. The only thing he's doing well is rebounding.
Now, hopefully he bounces back to where he was as a rookie. However, there's a good chance that he got his contract, and will never produce like he did.
-
I'll take pretty much the last medium-sized contract I can afford, because I think he's too good a fit on my team to pass up.
Jason Maxiell
A strong defender, a shot-blocking presence, and a good rebounder.

I'll be picking way late

Send a list with the guys you'd want (in order), and have someone pick for you. Its the civilized thing to do.

Dallas is 7.4 and I took Speights.

Agree to disagree on his defense I guess, I think it has been pretty solid. They have opted to start Fields the last two times they played the knicks and have him match up on Melo.
In those two games combined melo was
16-48 from the field, 33%
2-14 from 3, 14%
Season averages for melo are 44% from the field and 39% from 3.

Atlanta hawks (Salary 57.1/70.3 mill)
Al horford 12mill, Robin Lopez 4.8 Mill
Kevin Love 13.6 mill
Danny Granger 13 Mill
Ronnie Brewer 854,389
Jose Calderon 10.5 Mill, Kemba Walker 2.4 Mill
7.5, 8.5, 8.22, 9.5, 9.22, 10.5, 11.5
I think Atlanta would have been better off with a pair of specialists on the wing rather than Landry Fields. A shooter behind Ronnie Brewer and a defensive SF with legitimate size behind Danny Granger.
I think that would work better than a SG/SF who can play 20-25 minutes a night. Go with a deeper bench rotation instead.

We can, if you know you won't be available to pick until after your time is up (1:50PM).
If you think you'll make it back before then, we can wait.
Or, you can figure out 3-4 guys you'd want, and we'll take whichever one is highest. If no one is available from your list, we can still skip you.

I see what you mean, but I disagree, I personally would rather have an all around good player who can do multiple things than a specialist. Unless they are best in the league at what they do. A guy like Novak or Bradley for example. I didnt see any specialists left for decent money that were standouts at what they supposedly "Specialize" in.

No word back from Edgar, so I'm going to give him the guy he said was his favored option...

AKA, Roy wasn't a big fan of taking the worst rotation player in the league at 7.2, even if he was Doc Rivers's son.

Alright, I'm on the clock. Trying to decide if I think a fourth guard or a fifth big is more important.

It's the first pick of Edgar's I really haven't liked. I preferred his second option, and probably about two dozen other guys in front of Rivers.
My theory is that Edgar has a secret plan to take out his loathing of Doc on his son.

I think Andrew Nicholson is the best value on the board, so I'm going to take him with pick 7.7

The rough percentile can be found by taking their rank, and dividing by 450 (which is the number of players who have logged at least 1 minute this year).
Incidentally, of those 450 players, Austin Rivers ranks... 450th in win shares, with -1.3. I'm not a huge fan of the win shares stat is basketball, but that can't be good.
Michael Beasley is tied for last.

Also, I'll give up an eighth and a tenth to buy into the back of this round.

Well, I might as well spend the money I have...
With 7.9 I'm going to take the explosive Terrence Ross

Who, the 7.9 was traded to me as part of the Westbrook deal.
-
So KG's knee is up unless he traded the pick. Sweet. Errybody take 5!
-
Thought Zaza would have been a great pick for Atzar, who really needs a true center who can bang and rebound.
Edit: Nevermind, cap issues.
-
Rodney Stuckey is available for a true back up SF.

can't believe how much you guys are killing me this round. all my best available players on my board are dropping like flies >:(

The Warriors are open for trade business.
If you are finding yourself against the cap and are looking to trade a big talent with a big contract, talk to the Warriors. Depending on your trade in, you could get the newer, cheaper star model in Curry.

What was the salary cap floor again??
The floor is set at 80 percent of the NBA salary cap, or $49.4 million.
Also, check your PMs. I'll agree to that deal if you're still up for it. (See my most recent PM, disregard the earlier one.)

Like that pick a lot..adds a lot of toughness to that front line

Who's up.

Ok, with pick 7.13 the Brooklyn Nets select Udonis Haslem
Complete roster with salaries:
Lopez- $13.67m
Blatche- $.85m
Boozer- $15.00m
Haslem- $4.06m
Wright- $4.11m
Barnes- $.85m
Bryant- $27.85m
Hill- $8.00m
Terry- $5.00m
Total salaries- $79.39m + ($.49m roster charge)
Remaining salary- $3.22m
Great pick! I was looking at him for a couple of rounds, and almost picked him with one of my earlier sevenths, but then realized Maxiell was on the board.
Good rebounder and defender. You've now got two tough guys to make up for Lopez's "softness" (according to some).

Steal of the draft. Shame on all the young teams who let this kid slip this far.

CelticConcourse. He mentioned he might be making his pick late, I think.
EDIT: Yep, here it is...
I'll be picking way late

Who has 15?
How many trades did he make?
-
Willing to listen to any trade offers, however, I probably won't make a big trade, mostly looking to move Henson

I'm wondering what they are going to do with Punk? He's out of the title picture, who he's going to get at 'Mania? Undertaker maybe?

Can't decide. I've got two terrible choices, and I need to make one.
Wayne Ellington. I'm taking Wayne ELlington, and someone better darn well have been planning to take him in the next 20 picks or so or help me...

No doubt in my mind it's Taker. His promo seemed to have plenty of material you'd use for a PPV package. Calling himself things like 'bigger than mania', 'immortal', 'the greatest of all time.'

Its really, really good. And the whole 'mood to watch it' think is a bit overblown. I had the same reservations. My advice is make a date night out of season 1.
When you groggily stumble to your bed 8 hours later, you'll wonder what took you so long.

He called himself God as well.
I agree this is a Taker matchup. And of course we all know he's going to lose at 'Mania, but I'm anxious as heck as to how they will set it up.
One more thing. AMBROSE IS THE REAL DEAL!

Here is the problem I kept having to deal with, when trying to talk myself into a higher impact player:
1) He's kept opposing 2 guards to below average production for 2 straight years, and his defense improved from an already good showing last season, this season.
2) He's shooting 42% from 3.
3) He's played really, really well for Cleveland since he arrived. 46% FG, 43% 3pt, 9 pts, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal in 20.3 minutes per game.

maybe in the next 20 rounds. if it helps, he was still on my available players list and wasn't marked as "do not pick under any circumstances".

Minnesota Timberwolves select John Jenkins the 21 year old sharp-shooter
-
Is the coaches' round complete?
-
Who has 21?
-
Hmmm...a few intriguing guys here, but I'm gonna go with the rejuvenated Jermaine O'Neal ($0.85)
Not the most popular guy around here but he's playing far better in Phoenix, especially lately. Still a good rebounder and rim protector, and can score a bit when needed. A strong defensive anchor off the bench.
-
Who has 21?
I have fwf and New York
-
BTW I still have about $22 million to spend, so I can take on pretty much any contract out there. If you're looking to shed some salary drop me a line.

Morrow as my second choice behind Arthur. Very tempting.
Great shooter.

Portland will put Brandon Bass on the block. Might also combine with Singler or Sessions in the right deal (two players for your one).
With $20 mil in payroll space, we can take back a bad contract if you're feeling the crunch.

Minnesota takes Brandon wright
He was my 2nd choice behind O'Neal. Such an odd case - his advanced stats are generally terrific but every coach he's had seems to hate him. Talented but complacent maybe - that's how he was at UNC.

A couple years ago I had a dream team of Chris Kaman (when he was good) Dirk, and Jason Kidd. That was the bomb.

He's actually been playing fairly well backing up Teague. He's scoring efficiently. Hit more of his three's. His assists are down but he is playing an awful lot with Teague at the PG and him at the SG so that accounts for that.

torn between 3 picks right now. can't believe how my board took a beating today. first time I feel like no matter who I leave on the board after this pick, the others will definitely be gone before I pick again.

Here's to hoping this dude ever pans out.
San Antonio selects Tyrus Thomas.

yup, don't need to worry about my backcourt going forward. can also go small with Lebron as a PF too to change things up.
small ball with with Bosh or Okafor at Center, Lebron at PF, Knight and one of the Williams Brothers or Crawford/Meeks as SF will be a pretty solid running unit.

Not a fan of Meeks. He peaked with Philly 3 years ago, and really hasn't ever gotten back to that level. He's playing better with LA right now. Just one of my own irrational dislikes.

don't know whether to be happy or worried. I usually receive some pretty quick comments (some good but usually not) about my picks. no comments so far has me wondering
You've got five guards?
Well one is out for the year and another out until late March
yup, don't need to worry about my backcourt going forward. can also go small with Lebron as a PF too to change things up.
small ball with with Bosh or Okafor at Center, Lebron at PF, Knight and one of the Williams Brothers or Crawford/Meeks as SF will be a pretty solid running unit.
I think I'd have preferred an actual SF instead of Meeks or Crawford. Those two seem redundant.

I needed to drop the pick. I've been trying to shop it a little bit for something of real value, but I wasn't getting any bites. Decided to toss it.

Just a guess, but I'd wager the 10 TP's are more valauble than the type of players who are going to be drafted in the 11th round.

my SF choices that round were pretty much gone. There's others out there that are either ineffective, overpriced or too young. Overpriced becomes less of a burden if I get to the later rounds with enough cap space

Not a fan of Meeks. He peaked with Philly 3 years ago, and really hasn't ever gotten back to that level. He's playing better with LA right now. Just one of my own irrational dislikes.
admittedly it wasn't ideal to pick a Laker (just out of principal) but for the value, he's having an ok year and gives me a 3rd healthy guard while I wait for Mo later this year and I can move him in the offseason when Lou comes back.

I just didn't like Bass' fit with the rest of the team. Hopefully we can turn the picks into something more in tune with our plans for the roster.
Also, hat tip to CelticConcourse, who was waiting by the phone on a Bass deal for quite a long time. Unfortunately, I had my sights set on another deal that took nearly 48 hours to reach completion, then fizzle out.

It's tough to be high on Bass when he's been so frustrating this season, and you know that everyone thinks the same.
Still, he's a very serviceable role player.

TPs to CC for his patience, well he did threaten to burn my autographed Alan Thicke photo but overall patient.

Willing to trade my 8th and 9th for a picked power forward. Preferably some speed and athleticism, or a good stretch 4.
Also, willing to move Battier (and maybe a pick) if it translated into more of a combo forward.

Pick 2 and CB Summer Draft are fixtures each year. CB Summer is generally done mid to late August.
Then early summer there's generally a Historical Draft (which varies on what decades are allowed) and then some more silly drafts like the Ultimate Draft (which is just random, non basketball stuff)

I believe the idea of draft is the brainchild of Nick and Roy's, though I'm definitely far from positive.
And I'm pretty sure the idea for it came to help kill the dog days of summer in between free agency and the regular season.

The CB Draft was created by CFF and myself. The basic draft structure was CFF's brainchild, and we developed it together. From there, we've refined it a bit over time.
The Pick 2 Draft sprang from that. I came up with the idea of adjusting the draft structure to try to make the teams resemble real ones a bit more. Like with the CB Draft, we try to refine it year to year.
The Historic Draft is nick's baby.

At the end, a thread should be made where each GM can write a few paragraphs explaining their team (why they drafted who, goal for their team, motivations, trades they made, etc) to everyone else ;D It would be fun (for me at least), and voluntary

Yeah we do that during the summer draft, which is a far more competitive atmosphere, pick 2 is more laid back and chill.

I'm overly defensive about everything I do O_O

This game is called Pick 2, because we picked two ppl at the start, correct?
-
any new drafts in the works Roy?
Not currently. We usually have one random non-basketball draft during the year, but right now I think things are pretty saturated with three basketball drafts.
-
All you new GMs that participated in the pick 2, I highly recommend becoming a GM in the CB draft in the summer if there's room. The start from scratch thing is really fun. You have more sense of pride in your team just because you created yourself. Although its really competitive and some people get their feelings hurt. If you are able to put that aside, you'll enjoy it. Not to mention the playoffs gets really intense.

Yeah, it's been pretty fun. Way better than your traditional "fantasy league". Putting together a cohesive roster, where the players complement each other and actually make sense as a unit, is so much different than just some random compilation of guys who put up stats.
Definitely will think about the CB draft if time permits.

Judging by these trade offers, y'all don't understand how good Drummond/Monroe will be for the next ten years.

Wayne Ellington, in 27 minutes tonight, 13 pts, 45% fg, 40% from 3, 6 boards in a Cavs win where Kyrie had to sit.
Just saying, kind of everything you want from your top swingman reserve. Keep your Jimmy Butlers, you fools!

Well, while we wait:
Kinda looking to get a new videogame for Xbox (new to me, preferably a year old so I don't spend the big bucks) and I'm looking for some recommendations. Don't want to get a sports game, but I also hate games where you have to walk around a lot (in between action)
Anyone?

Newegg currently has a sale going on some xbox games.

Allegedly, you can pick it up for $25 if you jump through some minor hoops (subscribing to the newegg newsletter):

LA Noire is one of the most rewarding video games I've ever played. Its linear, not like choose your own adventure (at least in the most part), but it is freakin awesome.
The other game I recently finished is The Walking Dead. That game is just...well pretty awesome. Deserved game of the year.

PHX at 8.1 selects Marcus Camby who is returning Friday I think
(Marcus Camby looks at Suns roster. Looks at inviting couch and all eight Harry Potter movies, which he's just never gotten the chance to watch.)
Camby: RIGGS! Riigggss!! I'm gettin too old for this....stuff.

So is this the round where we see our annual late-round fall off in interest?
I think there are still a lot of capable rotation players on the board. Friday will be brutal, though.

Ya, that one was lame cause the owner was a sleeze.
The one on this past week with the college friends from New Orleans was pretty good.
All i know is that John Taffer is way better than the guy from Restuarant impossible.

I read a review on yelp. Sounded like people were pretty dissatisfied with the shortened menu.
That was the only time I thought they did a poor job on it. Place had a little personality before, and they turned it SO, SO generic.

If he is, you shouldn't take him. He burned his bridges in Philly MIGHTY quick.

Dark Souls is amazing - there's some walking around, but it's tempered by never knowing when some ghoul's gonna come charging after you, and you open lots of shortcuts as you progress. One of the most immersive games I've ever played. Reminds me I've got to get the DLC.
If you get Walking Dead make sure it's the one that was originally downloaded via Xbox Live - there's a new one coming out with the same title that's like a 1st person shooter or something like that. The XBox Live one is also cheaper.

Assassins Creed III
There is a lot of walking, but the landscape is great and you can free roam.
The storyline is also superb, but you probably want to play ACI first. Heck, just play all of them. I have, and it was definitely worthwhile.

I have the first one, and for me, it was too much aimless walking around. Im admittedly terribly unpatient with these games.

We've got 8.11, 8.13, and 8.15 today. May not make the 8.11 on time, but I'll make the selection at the break if necessary.
Will also consider offers for the picks. Won't trade picks for picks, but we will listen to offers that combine picks with players.

I have roughly 3 million to round up my roster.
Challenge accepted

Has no one actually picked yet today??

Great pick. I was hoping he'd be there at my next pick.
Really talented young player. He could be a very good player in this league.

That's correct.
Basically I'm taking him because he's a high-motor scorer who I can pair with Isaiah Thomas to ensure that my second unit doesn't let the tempo drop. He also gives a different look that Harrison Barnes (Harris is a bully from the swingman position), and compliments Ryan Anderson well.
On top of that, he gives me a mobile 4 I can use in small-ball lineups.

Funny story: So you stole Darrell Arthur from me last round. Sometime, late last night I got it in my head that you'd also take Tobias Harris this round if I dind't trade up. Swear to god, I didn't think 'Someone is gonna take him', I thought, "Who is gonna take him at 8.14".

It is, but that's part of the fun :D
It might've helped that I was raised on the NES, because Dark Souls is as close to "Nintendo hard" as it gets these days. But it's extremely fair - you're supposed to die, a lot, and learn from your mistakes how to succeed in the very consistent system. It's really satisfying when you start ripping through enemies that used to take you apart, based solely on playing the game more intelligently.

Pegged for his first pro start tonight against Milwaukee. It looks like he is the favourite to take over Patrick Patterson's starting spot for the remainder of the season.
Double BOO

Was under serious consideration for the 8.11, had we not made the trade. Was looking forward to he and Jonas leading the team bus in Lithuanian folk song sing-a-longs on road trips.

Thanks, IP. TP for you.
Was reluctant to part with Singler, but with Harkless and Lamb attainable, I thought we could afford to make a swap to get a nice understudy for LMA in Henson.
-
Under the weather today and away from my computer/player sheet.
If he's still available I'll take Chris Wilcox and head back to bed.

Today's round seems to be the day for the young, up-and-coming teams to seperate themselves from the other like minded teams.

Shooting from the second unit could be a bit of a concern. If Jeremy Lamb can keep up his %'s from OKC it should do a lot to counter the issue but he's in such limited minutes, who knows what he'll do with 20 a night.
-
OK, Rocks take the Chuckwagon
-
I'll take
Epke Udoh
as athletic guy who gets to run wild for 5 minutes a game.
-
Nice, Fairweatherfan is up
-
Wondering if the guy I want will still be on the board when we pick next.
If you have a late 8th, and are willing to slide down to the mid 9th, let me know.
-
Knicks will pick up Quincy Pondexter for his wing defense, 41% 3 pt shooting, and OCD-pleasing $1.23 salary
-
Might need to shed a little salary, so if anyone wants Morrow, let me know.

With 8:22 Im gonna take Shaun Livingston at the 774K. Can defend both guard spots. at that price, nothing to dislike about him.

With salaries getting tighter these late round picks are so much more important that in previous drafts I think. Im clerly passing over better players for contributors on good contracts.

I think most of us are in that same boat. there's clearly some good players left on the board but not worth their contracts. people who have some expensive players are left picking scraps instead of talent. still not sold it's been a good addition to the game this time around.

I like it, it adds a layer of "realism" to it. Then again, this is the first CB draft I've taken part in, so hard for me to truly compare.
-
I like the salaries. Real teams have to factor in salaries so I think it's meaningful in putting fake teams together too.
-
I've been on and off so my list might not be updated has Timofy Mozgov got picked?
If not that's who I select.

I think if he added an "i" to his last name, it'd be right up there.
Instead, I am left feeling shortchanged, and wondering what might have been.

I feel like "Pondexter" flows better from "Quincy" than "Poindexter" would. But I agree it's hard to get past the similarity.

Question: guys with the minimum 1st year 2nd round pick salary ($.47) - do they get get counted at $.5 or the vet min for the purposes of this game?
If a guy is a rookie earning the rookie salary minimum ($490k, I believe), that's what they earn.
For guys who signed later in the season, and are thus earning a pro-rated signing, GMs have two options: they can pay the pro-rated salary, but the player will be deemed to have signed on the date of their actual signing; OR the team can elect to pay that player for the entire year, but must pay them the minimum salary.

Yeah. I'm content to go to war with Parker, Gasol and Johnson as my big 3 for the next few years, but I got a trade idea earlier that is worth some due diligence at the very least. The only hangup is that it would require me finding a way to move Johnson for some cheaper assets in the process, so that's where I'm at.
It's complicated on my end of the deal and I don't think anything will come of it, but it's worth talking out just to make sure.

Lopez is better than Gortat but not as much as would effect a team as the difference between Leonard and Wright would. And on top of that you gave away a great assistant coach in Marcus Camby
-
Brooklyn presumptive starting five: Hill, Kobe, Kawhi, Boozer, Gortat.
Phoenix presumptive starting five: Dragic, Wade, Wright, Wallace, Lopez.
Agree. Leonard is asked to do less than he's capable of in San Antonio, so really you're trading in points from Lopez for increased all around production from Leonard over Barnes, and better rebounding from the center position.
Still doesn't change the effect of Boozer on the lineup defensively, but the team got a little better, and small steps like these add up.

Lopez is better than gortat and I think wright can stretch the floor like kawhi
Wright's a significant step back defensively and on the boards from Kawhi. Speaking of boards, Brook is just bad at rebounding.

Yeah but wade and Lopez is a great duo and Dragic wright and Wallace are good compliments , wade and Lopez are the offense all I needed kawhi was to spread the floor
-
I don't nearly have the same initial, visceral reaction to the thought of a Boozer-Lopez pair as I do to Boozer-Gortat.
Perhaps some stats might help, but I feel that Brooklyn improved the fit/defense, and scored a terrific wing defender to put alongside Kobe.

I'm not sure what this personal vendetta you have against Boozer is all about, but needless to say, IMHO you're way wrong about him.
Boozer isn't a $15m player, but he's still a border line all-star. Boozer is a perfectly capable defensive player. Not elite, but capable.

They can't if you literally have two streaky shooters and that's it.

Brooklyn presumptive starting five: Hill, Kobe, Kawhi, Boozer, Gortat.
Title.
Agreed ;D

SUNS Pick 2
PG: Goran Dragic(7.5) CJ Watson(.992)
SG: Dwyane Wade(17.1) Dion Waiters(3.72)
SF: Dorell Wright(4) Kyle Singler(1.00)
PF: Gerald Wallace(9.88) Kris Humphries(12)
C: Brook Lopez(13)
Lopez is better than gortat and I think wright can stretch the floor like kawhi
Wright's a significant step back defensively and on the boards from Kawhi. Speaking of boards, Brook is just bad at rebounding.
Worried about boards? I can start Dragic wade Wallace humphries Lopez basically the nets
But then you're hurt offensively.
I know dragic d-wade and Lopez can't score
They can't if you literally have two streaky shooters and that's it.
So by keeping kawhi they'd magically be able to score? Don't follow you.

Yes, because you wouldn't be forced to play Wallace/Humphries/Dragic at the same time together to make up for enemic rebounding and defense from Lopez/Wright.

So because they're less efficient rebounders doesn't mean they can't shoot and drive and get buckets?

I'm not going to come down on Phoenix too hard here. They moved an improving SF and ultimately pretty mediocre center for an all-star center who is younger and also, still improving. Yes, rebounding is a concern in the frontcourt, yes they no longer have a starting quality 3, but they still have assets and are one move away from having a better starting 5.
Overall decrease in talent for Phoenix, but Lopez is playing pretty well right now, especially on the offensive end.

No, it means you have to choose between units that can't d up and rebound or one that has no spacing and will thus have trouble scoring.

This is a fair assesment from my perspective. Lopez is no joke. He may not be the best defender or rebounder, but dude is a beast on the offensive end. I was rather reluctant to part with him.
Ultimately, I think it improved both teams based on fit.

Well, I disagree that both teams improved on fit. Leonard/Gortat is a fair exchange of talent for Lopez, but PHX needs a different SF option than Dorrell Wright, and it ain't Crash unless he gets a true stretch 4 with 3pt range.
But I don't think PHX is done yet. They need to move Wallace or Humpty-Hump for a legit starting 3, but I think that can be done.

Looking to move humphries for salary relief for another PF. Also Want to move 9.1 waiters singler for a starting SF PM me!
-
Wow. Just looking over the players picked last round, I am absolutely shocked that Andris Biedrins got selected.
-
Trade Confirmed:
BKN trades Brook Lopez,Dorell Wright,9.13,10.13
PHX trades Marcim Gortat, Kawhi Leonard,Marcus Camby,11.1
Seems like a lateral move for both sides to me. More different than better.
I think Phoenix has a bit more upside here if they can make some more transactions. The balance in that frontcourt around B.Lopez isn't so hot.
-
Wow. Just looking over the players picked last round, I am absolutely shocked that Andris Biedrins got selected.
For financial reasons.

Still, I think I would have grabbed a couple $5 million players over him. He's turned into perhaps the biggest stiff in the NBA.
I guess you've got the flexibility to take on a reclamation project, but man, this guy is Golden State's Mark Blount, but worse.
-
Kenyon Martin would have been a great late draft pick to start alongside Brook Lopez. Or Ekpe Udoh. Someone with real defensive talent. Use one of those guys as a 18-20mpg starter and bring Gerald Wallace off the bench as a PF/SF to fill out the rest of the power forward minutes as an undersized quick four.
I half wonder about slotting in one of those undersized quick footed centers at power forward alongside Brook Lopez. The spacing offensively would be bad but it would give Phoenix a major boost defensively. Similar idea as above with G.Wallace taking the majority of minutes but a lesser talented superior defender doing some starting duty.
Edit: I think I'd stick with Gerald Wallace as my starting PF. It's not ideal but it will work well and it'll be hard to find a superior option to that.
-
Thanks Who.
I'll take Evan Fournier
Nice pick. Fournier was up at the top of my list for young two guards.
Really liked the kid coming out in the draft and at only 19 years old he's a good pick for my team
Completely agreed. Loved what I saw of him.

If you go over, you're not allowed to make any more picks, and your team is deemed to have violated the rules of this game.
Teams have to:
1. Stay within their cap limit;
2. Have at least 12 players, and no more than 13 (non-overseas) players. Teams with 12 players are assessed a $490k roster charge, which must be within their cap.
Any pick or trade that puts you over the cap will be voided.

Finally got the guy I've been bugging jgod about for so long lol
At only 22 years old and fresh off his first all star appearance I'm more than happy to add Paul George. Gives me a very nice building block and becomes the face of my franchise.
Hinrich was more than a throw in as he has been playing solid basketball as of late and provides an added vet presence. His most recent game he put up 10 points/10 assists/6 rebounds.
Odom has also been playing good basketball this season as he has awoke from his slumber party he had in Dallas and has been rebounding the basketball very well and playing solid defense. The clippers don't ask him to score much but he has become a mainstay of their bench.

Right now, even if you pick guys who all make the rookie minimum, you're going to be about $100k over the cap.
You're going to have to make a trade to dump some salary. Also, I noticed some of the salaries in your sig are inaccurate (for instance, Wright makes $4.1 million, not $4.0), so if those inaccuracies are included in your cap calculation, you might be off by more than that.

Yeah I was hesitant to make the deal for a while as I didn't want to give up George, who was both the best player in the deal and has one of the most GM-friendly contracts in the game, but I really love the fit of my team after the deal.
Defensively I love the fit between Hibbert/West/Prince/Afflalo with TA coming off the bench. Nash is a liability there, but he's surrounded by excellent defenders.
Nash gets his p&r buddy in West, we get more vet leadership with him and Prince, and Jeff Teague off the bench is a spark plug I needed.
One of those rare win-win trades.

Darn it. I was hoping he would make it to my pick.
Nice pick. I think C.Andersen was the BPA for your team. Not just the cheapest option. A really good backup center for Brook Lopez with his high energy defense and rebounding.
-
9.1 ill take Chris birdman Andersen and yahoo says his salary is only 144.6 k is that accurate
The rule on this is as follows:
* If you want Andersen to play for your team the entire season, his salary is $854k.
* If you want him to only be available for a limited number of games (approximately 20), then you can use his actual salary.
According to basketball-reference and storytellers, though, his contract is $541k, even for his limited role this season. That's the number we'll go with, if you elect to have Andersen only play the latter part of the year.
Let me know what you want to do.

Edgar in going to select Delonte West at the veteran minimum.
I thought he did already?

I don't think so, at least in this year's draft. I'm sure he's drafted him several dozen times before, including in the All-Time Soccer Draft.

I could have sworn he did sometime this week. 6th round, maybe?

I think his picks have been:
Derrick Rose, Evan Turner, Luis Scola, Gerald Henderson, Derrick Williams, Luke Ridnour, Austin Rivers (blech), Channing Frye, Delonte West
-
Minnesota sends: David West, Tayshaun Prince, Jeff Teague
Indiana sends: Paul George, Lamar Odom, Kirk Hinrich
Confirmed.
Is there a place where all the trades are being posted? I checked the first page and don't see anything regarding how West or Prince wound up in Minnesota. I thought I'd been on track with who's picking what player and who traded what player but now I'm at a loss for those 2 guys.
I traded Nicolas Batum/Brandon Bass for David West/Tayshaun Prince
thanks BG -- TP for clearing my confusion.
-
Guess I was having a Groundhog Day moment there with Delonte.
Anyhoo, Portland has two 9ths, and lots of young talent on the cheap. We're open to trade talks.

Whoopsie, I guess IP didn't make my pick.

Same deal as with Chris Anderson; if you only want him from January 19th on, then he's $347k. If you want him for the full season, it's $854k. Let me know.

Yep, me too. He was going to be my pick until I saw Darrell Arthur was still available.
Ivan Johnson is a nice physical power productive power forward off the bench. He was exactly the type of big bodied PF I wanted behind thin-bodied Anthony Davis off the bench.

Poooooooooooooooooo
-
Warriors will add Pietrus
Great pick. I was just starting to wonder if he was still available. I didn't have his name on draft board because he was a late season signing.
Excellent value this late in the draft. Probably the best two way wing available.
-
a lot of my top picks going early again in this round. looks like I'll be picking from the poop pile by the time it gets to me. :(
-
Will trade 10.6, 11.6, and TPs for a mid 9th straight up. Willing to take the $490K cap hit.
PM ME!

Offering 9.13 to anyone if they can offer me a fair deal that gives me salary relief

One of you can come get 9.13 ;D

Looking for a rotation-worthy SG, preferably one who could also play a little at the 3. We have mid-9ths and young prospects to offer. Might even include Sessions in the deal.
-
Not going to be able to make this pick at 9.13. I need some relief. :o
On the block 9.13
Waiters 25ppg the last 3games
Humphries contract
Also Dragic for a cheaper PG

Always the same people looking for trades. And I'm one of them haha. I'm surprised a lot of GMs havent made a trade all draft. Borrrringgggg
-

It's true. Seems like always 1/4 or 1/3 of the GMs in these drafts aren't active (or even responsive) on trade fronts.
Fortunately, there's another 1/4 to 1/3 of the GM population who love to turn over rosters, so they sort of take up the slack.

by my count, there's only 6 (including me) that haven't made a deal yet. will trade if the right deal is there. won't trade quality for crap.
most of the offers I've received have been from 3 gms looking for 1 of 3 players I have and offering me $.25 on the dollar for my guys.
-
Putting Nate Robinson on the block. We'd have to get creative for me to take anything more than a minimum contract back, though.

Willing to listen to offers on Nikola Vucevic.
3rd in the NBA in rebounds with 11.4 and 3rd in the NBA in double doubles so he won't come cheap but I'll listen to all offers

I have only made one trade but have talked to multiple GMs about players. We are just not finding middle ground on these (or the person took another deal before we could put in the finalizing steps of a deal we both like. Not upset about it. It happens. Most GMs have discussions about the same player with different GMs and take what they see as the best deal)
I am still open to trades, but because I have plenty of cap space and are happy with my players, I have no need to sell cheap.
-
Very interesting how the salary cap has put some GM's in a huge bind all of a sudden.
I'd say some here are going to be learning a very important lesson in how difficult it can be to properly manage a roster, while simultaneously managing a salary cap.

Oh yeah, definitely. I like my team, and I feel like they're a contender if everybody's healthy.
But now that my roster is more or less set, I think I might want to have fun with it and see what happens.

Anyone needing salary relief or are in a blow it up mode, Lakers are willing to talk. PM me.

With the 9.15, Portland selects Chris Copeland, on behalf of another team.

Portland sends Chris Copeland and 9.19
Miami sends Jodie Meeks and 9.27

Dang, really liked Copeland's pick and roll skillset at the the $.5 mil price.
-
With 9.16 I'll take Grant Hill
-
Dang, really liked Copeland's pick and roll skillset at the the $.5 mil price.

If the thought of dealing with the Lakers makes you want to take a shower, consider us in Portland.
We've got the cap space and cheap talent, plus fresh marionberry scones and Tim Horton's coffee (thanks to our co-GM hookup across the border).

No disrespect to CP in particular because he's not the only one in this boat, but this is why I like the inclusion of salary.
Like some NBA teams do, this franchise overextended itself financially and now is looking to basically give away bad contracts. Really like that added dimension of having to consider and deal with cost.

I imagine you could move D.Waiters or D.Wright for an 11th round pick pretty easily.
You would be in a fine position then.

Ok well pick 17 is MIA.
With the 18th pick in the 9th round the Pacers select Linas Kleiza

Right but the point of adding it in i thought was also showing that the NBA really isnt a fair place, some teams are the haves and some the have nots

With the 19th pick, the Heat take another young banging big man to fill up their front court (and on the cheap) -- Kyle O'Quinn. The kid's starting to get the playing time and generating nice numbers on the boards and some points.

If Raja Bell is still available ill take him with one of my missed picks

Curious to see what's going down here.
I assume Randolph is actually the other GMs pick?

This guy's pretty toxic around here, and he has an awful contract but he's the most talented guy left and we can afford him, so the Knicks will take Charlie Villanueva ($8.06) as a 3rd string stretch 4 and emergency backup.
In an effort to shed Charlie's bad reputation and appeal to a broader audience, we will be changing his name to Charlie Newtown and borrowing Stan Sitwell's broad line of hair- and eyebrow-pieces for Charlie to wear, symbolizing the fresh start he'll be getting in his new town of NYC.
So please help the Knicks welcome Charlie Newtown!

I don't know how that happened.
Humprhies traded for a guy who was picked probably 4 rounds before him, who is making 10 mil less a year, and the guy who got Robinson was so trapped that he couldn't make his pick.

Portland still looking for an upgrade at the SG/SF, and/or a backup PF/C.

The thing is I was trapped on the opposite end of the salary cap spectrum as I was nearly 10 mill under the salary cap minimum with only one draft pick remaining. I increased my salary and also got a nice young PF prospect in the process.
The funny thing about Humphries is how much his perception has changed since the whole Kardashian thing. Is he overpayed? of course, but for a guy who averaged 10+ rebounds nearly three years in a row is all of a sudden a scrub? I don't buy it

KC sent me his pick for the 9.25, which is technically up now.

True, but he's been benched in favor of Reggie Evans and Andray Blatche.
What's your current payroll? I suspect you're over $60 million now.

Count me among those who never thought he was all that good to begin with. He's always been giving about as good as he's gotten, in terms of production for what he's bringing to the team compared to what he's costing them on defense.

But you don't give up a top 5 pick in this year's draft to meet the salary floor. Draft a player on a bigger contract (again, I see one whose available and serviceable) and then make a smaller move.

For the record, Thomas Robinson was pick 3.22
Celticpride, with his back against the wall, just managed to turn pick 6.21 into pick 3.22.
...and now he's trying to flip Robinson to me for the guy I took at 2.24.
Ever see that video about the guy who traded a red paper clip for a house?

So Humphries isn't serviceable? I see what you're saying but I also got back a lottery pick PF who is still only 23 years old.
-
Jameer and Hump = $20.6m
Kirk = $3.94m
Odom = $8.2m
Beez = $5.7m
Mayo = $4.0m
Seems like you should be well above $45m.

Well for starters, last time he got significant playing time he averaged 12 points and 6.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks
Maybe it wasn't the best deal for me but you win some and you lose some..great thing is none of it is real so I'm not too torn up. Out to lunch! Those of you I'm discussing deals with I'll get back to you

That is a nice pick. I was pretty tempted by T-Will.
His ability to play multiple positions on the perimeter was a really nice bonus. Good utility player to have at the end of your bench. Not many of those types left. Mostly one positional specialists.

You can draft a free agent. There's no free agency, though; all players on your team have to be drafted.

Had a lot of fun in this draft. Will be joining the summer CB draft for sure.

Sweet!
I've got to be honest, with a lot of "newbies" joining this draft and a few veterans on the sidelines, I was a little worried about there being a ton of missed picks and lack of interest. It's been exactly the opposite, as everyone has remained enthusiastic deep into this draft.
Kudos, guys.

Got him as available.

Ok, so I've been trying to update my draft board of the last two rounds. I kinda slacked on it, since I didn't have a pick in either the 8th or 9th (and actually don't have a 10th either).
I've noticed pick 8.3 has never been made. Can anyone confirm if this is true or not?

A CFF pick, yes? I think he may have made it late. Not sure.

I think it was Raja Bell that Toronto took.

Anyone have an updated draft board for today?

If Raja Bell is still available ill take him with one of my missed picks
OK, found it. Doesn't specify the actual pick, but it was the only one missing.
Thanks for the tip Lucky/Who
EDIT: This does appear to be CFF's 8.3, although it is quoted a few pages back as his 9.3. Seems he still has yet to make one or the other.
-

I like Norris Cole because he's got great athleticism, and he has the skill and confidence to come in as a second or 3rd string PG and do damage as a scoring reserve. Good fit behind Paul, good change of pace.
-
A few offers for D-Roze and Rubio. And surprisingly, Speights has been drawing a lot of interest. A few deals I like. But if any other GM are interested in any of my players, feel free to send me a PM.

Welcome Channing Frye
We will be well used in our team
If he ever plays...! His heart problem is pretty bad
Is it much different than Jeff Green's or Chris Wilcox's?
My understanding is that Frye's was caused by a virus, unlike Green and Wilcox who had congenital problems. And CC is right, there are no good heart conditions but this one is particularly dangerous.

To clear things up, have another deal that was suppose to be confirmed before this because it would leave enough cap room for me to do this deal. Mr. Lucky sent it to StartOrien instead and forgot to send it to Roy.
Just trying to avoid the salary cap confusion.

Dallas Mavericks send: Ricky Rubio and Demar Derozan

That is a really great trade for Phoenix.
I don't like it for Dallas. I think they just shot themselves in the foot.
Dallas Mavericks send: Marreese Speights
Portland Trailblazers send: John Henson
Why is Dallas breaking up their team for young players?
They have a win-now squad with Dirk and Pierce. Guys like Henson and Waiters aren't ready to be key contributors on a playoff squad.
I don't understand these trades.
-
Dallas Mavericks send: Marreese Speights
Portland Trailblazers send: John Henson
I don't really understand it for Portland either.
They blew up their squad by trading away D.West and T.Prince and started targeting a load of young early stage players like Moe Harkless, the man they just traded in John Henson and Jeremy Lamb ... looked like they were playing for the future ... and now they trade Henson, a relaly interesting big man prospect, for a mediocre backup PF/C in Speights.
Makes no sense to me. I don't get it.
-
Going to be away from the comp most of the day but I'm trying to trade Thomas Robinson for a vet PF who can shoot. PM if you have interest in t-rob, other minor players can be added if necessary.

I'm not sure where Edgar went off to, but according to his most recent PM to me, his pick is:
(http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/1/15606/1090894-oden1.jpg)
Greg Oden.
Oden will earn $2 million this season, based upon the Commissioner's arbitrary salary assignment.

Uh, whoops. Didn't know the schedule was adjusted today.
Taking Tony Wroten. Project/binky.

Never even thought of T.Wroten. Excellent late addition.
Multi-position player with elite athleticism and much upside. Great find late in the draft.

Stepping out, back in less than an hour, or the pizza is free.
You know who I want ;)
-
Is Mirza Teletovic still available? If so, Bang.
Yes, yes he is.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G-45w5pI5g
FWIW, I actually do like Teletovic. Reminds me of a young turkish player who loves pizza and who is currently suspended for steroids and who will never get picked anyways so hell, screw it, I'll say his name: Hedo Turkoglu. Teletovic reminds me of a young Turkoglu

I think there is at least one team out there who needs a contract like Hedo's to get them to the salary floor.
Pick Hedo Turkoglu! C'mon. Somebody give this guy a home.

I'll bet it made that super-satisfying "TING!" noise you get when you swish a jumper just right. That's right up there with the sound of smacking a red kickball.

Nice. Prigioni is having a really good season. Top defender and solid setup guard.

Binky time! Knicks take Patrick Beverley. Love this kid.

Never mind.
Who caught it.

So I need to come up with a way to fairly give away pick 11.5 since I have my full alotment of players. Im thinking trivia.

Who is Larry Bird?

So am I alone in my Patrick Beverley love? Anyone seen this kid play? Dogged defender, very good passer, good outside shooter. Solid rebounder for a PG. Gets a lot of steals the right way (tough dribble defense without gambling or fouling).

First person that can name the starting 5 of the Dino-boxer bots that were robbed of a championship two summers ago gets the pick.

False.
It's a trick question. The Dino-Boxers weren't robbed of anything. They were beat fair and square, by anti-Lebron bias.

A team so deep that when our starting PG, a former Finals MVP, got hurt, yeah, we just replaced him with a career 20PPG scorer.

Tyshawn Taylor
I like T.Taylor. Can defend and shoot. Good athlete.
He could be a solid backup PG in the league in the next few years.

Ok, so now I have an extra pick, so more trivia!
For the 11.21, and a TP, answer the following question (no multiple guesses):
3 Celtics players have at one point been the all-time leader in 3 pointers made. Name all 3.
EDIT: More specifics - I mean the NBA all-time leader, and they were Celtics when they did it.

Two are pretty easy.
Larry Bird and Ray Allen.
The third one is an interesting piece of trivia. Chris Ford.
If that's right, the Commissioner's office will hold onto 11.21 until it can select the Phoenix Gorilla as mascot, or something similarly appropriate.

Correct! Chris Ford hit the first 3 pointer in league history and so was briefly the all-time leader.
I'm not sure what to do with the pick, but I'll give you the TP for sure. One of my favorite obscure-ish questions.
-
So am I alone in my Patrick Beverley love? Anyone seen this kid play? Dogged defender, very good passer, good outside shooter. Solid rebounder for a PG. Gets a lot of steals the right way (tough dribble defense without gambling or fouling).
I haven't really seen enough of him.
I know Miami were high on him but then they cut in training camp. A team desperate for PG play and Beverely couldn't make the grade. That worries me.
It looks like he has gotten a fresh start in Houston and is doing well with it. His energy and athleticism chasing loose balls really stood out in the little I have seen of him but I don't know what to make of him as an offensive player or defender yet.
-
Anybody want to select Adam Silver for me at 11.21?

Boooo. Give me a second.

Edit: Booo. Scooped by the commish.

With pick 10.24 the Lakers select Marcus Morris
Excellent value this late in the draft. Solid middle of the pack backup PF and still improving. Can play both forward positions.
Really impressed with Marcus Morris' improvement this year. Hopefully, there is more to come.
-
Boooo. Give me a second.
Seats Taken! Forrest!!

Just so everyone is aware I do not own the 10.13, it was traded to the Suns, who might have subsequently traded it somewhere else. I do own the 11.1 as well as 11.13 however

I can't believe he wasn't taken right after his brother rounds earlier. Honestly had both Morris brothers pegged as late 7th early 8th round talent.

I've watched a lot of Rockets games this year and been pretty impressed. He may be a better fit in their up-tempo system than Miami's.
They seem to really like him too, he's passed Toney Douglas on the depth chart and they're giving him some of Lin's minutes on nights when he struggles.

So how many missed picks that round? 12?

TP anyway.
So I'll leave the fate of the 11.21 to Roy's discretion - there's gotta be a team who's short a pick, but it might be one that's less active now.
-
Perry Jones III
-
Tyshawn Taylor
I like T.Taylor. Can defend and shoot. Good athlete.
He could be a solid backup PG in the league in the next few years.
Thanks, Who.
He's got some limitations, but I've always got a place for a PG who can shoot from distance, dunk, and defend.
Maybe I could talk him into taking up golf so him and Kidd could spend more time together.
Shame about the Nets - I love a lot of their role players, hate the guys getting paid. I understand the business side of things, but man, imagine if they didn't make any moves?! illard, favors and a bot load of cap room.

I'm short a pick, but I'm fine either way. I just mainly want a 12 man rotation to kick airbelinelli's butt with in 2K.

So how many missed picks that round? 12?
Seem right to me. According to my board the 8.3 and 9.24 have not been made either.

I chose Marquis Teague with 9.24

Good pick. Was considering him when I selected Rashard.
-
My next pick isn't due until 2:05PM so I think I might go take a nap...unless people want to entertain me with trade offers.
Go ahead. Every offer gets a TP. Maybe one will lead to a trade.

Yeah my bad, it 9.26 that I have as missing.
-
I know I have a pick that I've missed but too busy to play catch up on who's been taken this round. Will hopefully get it in before this afternoon's round starts. I know everyone's just hanging on my next move
-
Quick but relevant question: When people hear the song 'Mandy', do they actually sing the words in their head, or do they sing about Marg and Turkeys?
-
10.28
OKC will take Keyon Dooling (FA)
-
Since I own the 11.1 does anyone have a problem if I start things early for the 11th round and make my selection now?
I'd like to get things movings if possible

Kind of an odd pick. Lots of other PGs on the board.
Still, who am I to judge? I burned $6 mil of cap space on JRich this round.

Nando de Colo

Unequivocally the coolest name in basketball. FWF could not have been more wrong about Pondexter.

Ok, since there seems to be no objections, with the 11.1 Brooklyn selects the coolest name in basketball...
Nando de Colo
Unequivocally the coolest name in basketball. FWF could not have been more wrong about Pondexter.
Is Nando his given name, or is he like Kosta (don't call me Konstantine) Koufos? Fernando de Colo doesn't have the same ring to it.

Quick question, which sports name do you find most awesomer?
Nando de Colo

I can't believe there is a certain back-up PG that wears the Purple and Gold that has yet to be drafted.
-
I've got 11.6. I can make the pick soon, although I'm waiting to hear back on a PM.
-
I think I'm up on 11.5 - schedule's a little wacky today.
Ok, Knicks will again rescue someone from basketball hell, and take James Johnson ($2.81) as our 5th wing. Another guy I like a lot who's getting buried in Sacramento.
-

Well, he'll have to look good on mine instead.
...and that's my roster. Probably won't have much time to make trades or anything, so we're probably set.
I feel like I put together a better team than the actual Knicks, and at $10 million less to boot. Somebody get Dolan on the horn and get me in that front office.

So, I may need to unload JRich's salary. Who wants him for a draft pick? Send me a PM, I'll think it over.

With pick 11.8 the Lakers select Brian Roberts

Even though Portland got the biggest name in the trade, I don't like it for them. I think Thabo is the type of guy that helps win titles.
I think Lillard/Johnson/Batum/Aldridge/Valanciunas is a heck of a core.
On my end, Sefolosha is a very nice player, and both Sessions and Speights are nice off the bench. I'm also very high on Moe Harkless, who I compare to Paul George. Lamb could stand to eat a few meals at McDonald's, but he should develop into a sweet shooter who can play well off the ball.
Also, Johnson's contract would have hurt my team well into the future, so getting out from underneath it will help a lot in the long-term.

What's the minimum salary?
For players? It ranges from $490k for rookies to $854k for 2-year+ veterans.
For teams, it's $49.3 million.
-

Clever
-
I'll take A.J. Price
-
We'd asked Atzar about Joe a couple rounds ago, and presented a similar package. We decided we both enjoyed building up teams thus far, and both wanted to explore making a big trade and building a second one as a fun exercise.
Adding Joe to the starting lineup makes this a much more potent offense. A second facilitator and scorer next to Lillard will take a lot of pressure off the rookie PG.
We still have good depth, and a couple young and promising players. Have one more draft pick, but only about $2.3 million left. I'd like to move Jordan Hill and/or JRich to open up more, if anyone is game.
-
I think I'm up. The Rockets take the rookie Mike Scott and his $.5 salary if he's available.
-
at 11.16 I'm taking Nikola Mirotic.
Just remember, 12 active players minimum, and a $49.3 million salary floor. I'm not sure where you are on those numbers.

I don't remember if it was for every open slot under 12 players, or under 13, that a team would be assigned a minimum contract cap-hold of $490K.

Still willing to talk about Gasol and Parker. Delfino could move as well, if you need a good backup wing who plays defense and hits threes.
-
I rounded to the nearest $10,000 and got all my salaries from shamsports.com. shamsports didn't list James Anderson so I took him at the vet min for the whole year at $850,000.
So I started with a cap of $99.3 million and spent only $82.58 million. The only guy I overspent on was Devin Harris. I probably could have picked up another PG to be the primary backup for almost the vet min so I could probably done an incredibly similar team, (changing Harris for someone good and cheap at PG who was available after I chose Harris) for About $75 million

Warriors trade Bledsoe, Belinelli and 11.11
T-Wolves trade Crawford and Nelson.
-
11.20 gerald green if available
He's there.
I don't think I can take green he makes 3.5 it would put me over should I pick again?
If that's his salary, yeah, you should pick again.
BTW, Jae Crowder only makes $600K.
Let me check the board to see who's available I'll let you know lucky
Ok lucky check yo PM

T-Wolves trade Crawford and Nelson.
Start Marco Belinelli at PG
Over Bledsoe?
-
I am at exactly $70.3
What about if you take salaries out another decimal place?
I dunno, I think so. I thought it was agreed that we round salaries to the nearest $100k
I'm pretty sure I announced to the nearest ten thousandeth.
In that case I need to shave off $600k. Can anyone help me out on the trade front?

Over Bledsoe?
Yep -- Belinelli is the better floor general, playmaker, jump-shooter and scorer. He gives the team greater stability offensively.
Let Bledsoe be a defensive terrier off the bench.

Memphis Grizzlies pick Rasheed Wallace.
Isn't he done for the season?
Only eight weeks. We'll save him for the Finals.
Dude, already told you Portland is not buying you or Sheed tickets to watch us in the Finals.

I didn't know Portlanders referred to the first round as the finals. But I guess "Western Conference Quarterfinals" is a mouthful! ;)

Ok, so who has the highest remaining salary? Hedo?
-

Prolly
-
Ok, so who has the highest remaining salary? Hedo?
Yeah, Hedo Turkoglu = $11.815 million
-

Ok I'll take em

Nice. I think Hedo will make a very good backup SF for your team.

Yea despite his massive contract and steroid use lol he brings some useful skills to the table
-
I know a lot of people are set with their teams but if you're interested in a trade I'd like to make an additional move or two
-
Tony Parker will remain a Wizard, sources have learned. However, Pau Gasol remains on the trading block, and some parties also believe Carlos Delfino could be obtained in the right deal.

Maybe even starting PF?
-
With the 11.20 we obtained in the Jae Crowder deal, Portland selects Chris Singleton.
I think that puts a bow on Portland's roster.
-
So is tonight pretty much the end of it?
-
if this is the end....
A very enjoyable experience. Kudos to those who helped run it.
Very fun for all of us. I think :)
-
So is tonight pretty much the end of it?
Yes i think so, CB Draft is where playoffs actually happen
-
Detroit takes Roddy Buckets Beaubois.

I think Beasley is the best power forward on the team. He is the guy I'd start.

Wow i blinked and this was over and I havent even finished out my team...

Two picks left?
-
Yep.... And I'll take one of them now
one will me Nikola Mirotic who's over in Europe now but is a fantastic prospect and will be awesome when he comes over
Still need a SF... can anyone PM me one thats still available I have no idea
-
Last pick I'll take Jan Vesely if he's still available
And If im not over the salary floor my 13th player will be this owl at whatever salary I still need

Sounds fair. I signed Antoine Walker to a $6.5m contract.
Actually, the owl is probably a better value.

Mirotic already taken.
You might as well draft Corey Maggette with your last pick, to get over the salary floor.
-
Nuts thought he deffinitley would stay on the board good pick whoever got him
and I'll take Corey spaghetti
-
Everybody is on the block!! ;D

When I first got into college a couple years ago me and my roommate would have vicious battles of Heat vs Celtics (he was a "Lebron" fan as he put it) sometimes just to make it fun I'd try and have him pick a crappy team like Pheonix or Charlotte and he just wouldn't do it cause he couldn't win without Lebron!
