Millsap is solid.

Thinking about it, I feel as if I'd forgotten how good Millsap was in 2015-2016 (the year I think he was at his best). 1.8SPG, 1.7BPG and the All-Defensive Second Team
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Really like the Milsap pick for the Sixers. That season in Atlanta, was it 2016(?), he was like the best defensive PF in the game while giving you 17/9.

This was in the first announcement:

"Also, use this abbreviation for picks in trades and if you can make the trade similar to this:

Team 1 sends 5(7) and 9(4)
Team 2 sends 6(12) and 7(1)"

Please, follow this. It makes all the book keeping easier for me. I don't need to see the entire PM thread of the trade. I don't want just, I confirm. Please, just each GM send me the trade in the format above.

Thank you.

Toronto(Somebody) can select at anytime.

I wanted a starting point guard who can play defense, shoot, and move the ball without being ball dominant.

I was surprised to find that in the history of the NBA, only three players have achieved the following stats for a season:

6.0 assists per game
2.5 3PM per game
40% 3P%
.600 TS%

Steph Curry, Kyle Lowry and...



Mike Conley

Conley is also the only one who has made an All-Defense team.

I like that pick.  He was on my radar for backup PG.  I could see him even fitting my team better than Rondo.

Impressive that Conley has done this, but I gotta admit I would have thought there'd be more guys in that group.

Good pick. Allows for a lot of lineup flexibility with DRose too

Nice. He gives a good alternative to Lowry. Better scorer and penetrator, and IMO a better shooter.

I was very surprised.  Apparently, ultra-efficiency combined with passing and defense are quite rare.  Shocked that Chris Paul never did it, nor did Nash or any of the other great shooters.

I just love his offensive skillset for a guard, he's great both on the ball and off the ball. Will be a great fit next to KG imo.
