I thought really hard about picking Larry at 2 or trading down a few spots to get him. Great pick

So gouki traded MJ for Larry to move a pick from the top of round 5 to near top of round 3. Looks like good value for the Sixers, but have to see what happens with those picks.

Final post tonight (dw no undrafted players will be mentioned): befuddled with the Larry pick, especially with how players here dislike playoff underperformers. Larry was one of the greatest ever to play, but unless you go full databall I don't see how you'd not put him in the playoff underperformer category, where he'd consistently perform less stellar than his regular season numbers.
BTW I don't rate Larry as one lol, I lie more on the databall side.

I do not have draftboards for any other players.

Therefore, if a time passes and someone hasn't made a selection, you do have the ability, if drafting directly after that person, to jump them and post your selection and everyone after that can follow.

Nick, is the time stated, say 1:00pm for me earlier, the time when my draft clock begins and then 1:15 is when the #2 pick can steal... or is the time stated when your pick is due by?

There were 1 or 2 particular seasons where Larry was stellar in the playoffs.  I would expect those seasons to be selected.

I'm really glad that I got the 3rd pick. It was practically chosen for me, with me picking one of Lebron, Jordan, or Kareem that wasn't chosen. After that, it gets alot harder.

Tons of great players never put up the playoff numbers that they put up in the playoffs. Teams are better in the playoffs, on average, than in the regular season and in 3-5-7 game series, defenses can key on important players and defend them much differently and better than in an average regular season game.

If you look into a whole bunch of players, you will find this to be true.

We can go early right?  I mean as long as all of the selections have been made in front.  So when Who picks or at 2:15 I can pick?

As stated in the rules, your pick is due by the time listed. If you have a 1:00 time, you best post by that time or at 1:01 the person posting behind you can jump in front of you and post their pick.

Ah yeah he did have a couple of great playoff runs. Good for Gouki, I look more at a player's skillset anyways.

You can pick anytime after Who or if Who doesn't pick by 2:00 you can then go with your pick at 2:01

Interesting, I thought Jordan is the clear cut #1. Look forward to your pick!
