With the 4th pick of the 7th round, the Denver Nuggets select DeMarcus Cousins!!!

I'm so mad I keep oversleeping lol.

With the 5th pick of the 7th round Indiana's reuniting Dirk with an Old Friend Tyson Chandler:



As a Defensive Player of the year AND a Big who TALKS on defense like KG Tyson will make our defense even better and help Joel out.

Strong selection at this point of the draft, I think Chandler was a top 25-30 player at his peak.

Thanks.

Was surprised at his 3rd team All-NBA selection as well.

He reminded of KG towards the latter half of his career...I always saw him talking on defense much like KG did.

I think he'd serve as a good mentor to Joel as well.

My favourite little weird fact about Chandler is that in the year he won DPOY he didn't make All-Defensive First Team (he made 2nd team). Made the First Team the next year though.

How did that happen?

Absolutely no idea, lol...

I always thought that if you won DPOY it would take you out of the running for the Defensive Team selections.

I was waiting for someone to draft him - monster box stats (his impact stats are bad for a guy with his box stat footprint, but he still comes out looking like a top 20-30 guy in any given year).

DMC, Dray, Kyrie and Carmelo?

Just trade Duncan and go with the Bad Boy team.

Jokes aside, good pick. Insanely strong peak for the 7th round, just a questionable attitude. You have some real barky alphas to keep him in check (or at least, I think they could, assuming he doesn't blow up)

Lol and that was old Duncan - imagine '02 or '03 Duncan yamming it on DMC.

BOOGIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Great value pick at the end of the 7th round!

I love that vid. I agree attitude might be an issue, but I think he really cleaned his act up when he got to be on teams that weren't trainwrecks.

Yoki still going with his earlier mis-timed selection?

And rightly so. JO, like a few others, gets overlooked because of how dominant TD, KG and Dirk were

Completely honestly, there's a part of me that legit likes this.  I wouldn't add Iverson to the bunch, but add Artest to complete this 5 and I think that's a pretty cool team.

[Who]

I'm going to reach here because I like the guy a lot.  He can defend, he can attack the basket, he can shoot the spot up 3, he can get out in transition.  He's fierce, unselfish, and can thrive as a supporting player.  He brings another dimension to my wings rotation.  Heck, he might even start for me by the time this is all over.

With pick 7(11) the Utah Jazz select

20ppg / 6rpg / 49% FG / 38% 3PT%

Jaylen Brown

I had both Jaylen and Tatum rated as starters to be honest.

Jaylen was also my second choice after Houston. Jaylen arguably the better option of the two due to his defensive nous and athleticim but I was aiming for something particular on offense that pushed Houston ahead.

Great pick. Jaylen is fantastic.

[Donoghus]

Everything straightened out?  Am I good to go?

Yes.  See reply #1288.
