[Moranis]

With the 2nd pick in Round 3 of the 2021 Historical Draft the Phoenix Suns select:



DANNY GRANGER

This pick surprises me a lot, though I did forget how good Granger was for a couple of seasons before the injuries took its toll.

DANNY GRANGER

Surprising pick, he was really good for a few seasons though.

Always felt for Granger. Was quite hard done by with injury, but at his peak he was awesome. Efficient, able to score from all 3 levels, and possessing a nasty arsenal. Nice pick

DANNY GRANGER

was debating him for my pick. guess I dont need to do that anymore.

[nickagneta]

Danny Granger is a bit early but he had that one year before he got hurt that was outstanding. Played excellent defense, shot the three at over 40% at a high volume(over 7 per game).

25.8 points
5.1 rebounds
2.7 assists
44.7/40.4/87.8 shooting splits
59% TS%
Good advanced numbers

And more than anything, I love the fit. Big, long, athletic and an excellent team player that can stretch the floor by hitting that three.

People forget just how good Granger was before that injury.

I didnt, he was one of my top choices at my next pick. Was thinking about him as a PF.

You are building a really good team there.

Giannis is awesome
granger and Miller spacing the floor is filthy

Cool little Indiana connection too. Given the Cs most talented player and current head coach hail from there I can't really fault that

Yeah I don't question the fit and skillset at all, I'm just a bit sceptical about his game against elite defences (there really isn't a good sample size for prime Granger in the playoffs sadly, and it makes me a bit uncertain on how to rate that year). But still it looks better and better the more I look at it.

With my pick, I'm going with a strong, hard nosed defender to complement my scoring duo. A finals mvp, Jordan once call this player the best defender he ever faced. A surprising class act on a team full of jackasses, I pick...



Joe Dumars!!!

Joe Dumars!!!

I was wondering who would select him - was bewildered that someone didn't fall in love with his accolades in the second round.

[Moranis]

Joe D was my back-up pick.  Now just need to clear Gouki with my top pick and I'm all set.

Joe Dumars!!!

Lol, this was funny to me.

Good pick here. Elite defensively at either guard spot, could play them both on offence too, could shoot too. His only weakness was rebounding, so on a team with Moses Malone that might actually be a win-win

[Somebody]

Sounds like I might get my guy in the third round - it'll probably be a reach for some, but I'm surprisingly comfortable with how his game will scale against greats from other eras.

[Moranis]

I just don't want Gouki to take mine.  The suspense is killing me.

[gouki88]

This was a tough one too. So many good players still on the board - I want them all!

With their 3rd round selection, the Memphis Grizzlies select...



Manu Ginobili!
