2016 CB Draft: Draft Thread: Important Announcement

OK don't see him so....

with the #29 pick the Toronto Raptors select Brook Lopez

Brook is tough to build around but that's a lot of talent and scoring this late.

So is Rubio though

True, though not to the same degree, IMO. Rubio has major deficiencies as a scorer and shooter but he's a remarkable player in every other category. Lopez is an excellent scorer but has major deficiencies elsewhere (in just about every area).

Just got home. Thank you commish for your help. I gave him a list of 20 guys (approximately how many picks before mine) and Brook Lopez was #4 on the list. I love the pick as my BPA, and getting out of the NBA abyss that is Brooklyn will help Lopez. I love having a 30 pt scorer and a 20 pt scorer with my first two picks. It helps that one of them is 7 ft tall.

Brook Lopez is not a great defensive player. He has, however, averaged over 18 points, 7.5 rebounds, and almost two blocks per game over his career playing on mediocre-to-bad teams. He has never had anything close to Steph Curry on his team. Lopez benefits more than almost any other player with a change of scenery.

Tough to build around? If he was my best player, I could see that (my team would be the Nets). However, I picked the player who has won the last 2 MVPs as my best player.

I imagine you're not building around Rubio either. That's why you drafted Durant.

I was hoping he would fall to me, great pick!

Looking to trade up my picks in round 4 and 5 for an early 3. I will be out of commission those days and would appreciate some help getting a deal so I can get my picks in.

I'm looking to do the same, but I have no good reason. If you do trade with me, I'll take Air Belinelli's list. Win-win.

He's primed for a great year.

I'm not his biggest fan, but one of the few established guys with star potential left. Very solid player.

He was on my list for this round. Good pick.

Good pick. I considered him with my pick in the 2nd round but then I'd be too similar to RL OKC.

DinoGanja Im dying to see who you take with the pick I traded you
