2019 Historical Draft Thread(TIME TO REVEAL THE WINNER!!!)

[Donoghus]

With the 10th pick of the 10th round, the Dallas Mavericks select Mark Price!

Nice pick.

[Yoki_IsTheName]

This is more of a pick of the heart than the brain. I know there are better value players out there, but God, I just love him as a player and I love his game so much, and he would be a terrific fit to our second unit, and MAY potentially start.

Keeping with the theme of defense, unselfishness, toughness and team play, we are happy to select this man.

5x All-Star
1x All NBA
1x All NBA Defensive Team

For pick 10.5, the Detroit Pistons select Al Horford.

After drafting Wilt Chamberlain and before I drafted Dirk, I was thinking of drafting Al Horford as a 5th starter. I thought he'd be a good glue guy next to Wilt. Strong physical defensive PF. Can shoot. Can pass. Good athlete. Can matchup against guys like Karl Malone but also quick dudes like Giannis. Versatile defender.

I think Horford is a really good to have coming off your bench.

Cannot match up against KAT.

Maybe. KAT is indeed talented. But I worry about if KAT can handle Kobe's attitude?

I mean, if he couldn't handle Jimmy Butler's, what more Kobe? Kobe would be much more ruthless at his lack of effort on defense. Chemistry wise, I think that can be an issue.

Ha, Jimmy Butler is there too!

I didn't think of that. Butler and Towns reunited. Oh boy.

Oh, I forgot about that. That's going to be a fun locker room. LOL.

Really like the Price pick.

With the 10th pick of the 10th round, the Dallas Mavericks select Mark Price!

Price was a guy I thought had a shot of going in the first 5 rounds and if not by then, then soon after. I thought folks would rate Price really high for his ability to exploit the rules of today's league. Much like Steph Curry and Steve Nash have.

I was surprised Price didn't get more fanfare.

A couple of other players on that Cavs team are players I thought would have gone by now over several of the picks made in the last two rounds. That whole team was great but did suffer from bad fanfare.

a bad back really hurt them.

With 10(11) the Celtics take a guy who had a heck of a peak, and was in consideration for best PG in the league along with CP3

Deron Williams

Deron Williams

I like Deron Williams. I think he is the best of the bigger body PGs available.

Some great small PGs still on the table.

[gouki88]

I'm up to make my pick, so no need for any concern from you Nick!

I'll make it in a couple of minutes

Non issue with payton, penny, dave and hakeem on the team

Considered one of the guys I think you’re alluding to, but felt like it made more sense to go with the bigger guy alongside AI

I spent 4 years at CWRU in the 80's and went to Celtics Cavs games when the CS came to town. So after I went back home, I kinda followed the Cavs as my #2 team. I loved those Price Cavs team. So fundamental yet fun.
