Lol. Bill Simmons is that you? Hey, he's a quality backup big man and its a 12th round pick. I think its good value for the 354th pick.

Somebody had to take him, right?

If this kid stays healthy, he still has the potential to be a starting center.  You can't ask for much more in the 12th round.  Nice pick.

Totally correct Rebus... Ratliff in the 12th round is a steal.... i was choosing btween him and Foyle and went with Foyle b/c he's 2 years younger and has been more consistently healthy over the last 3-4 years.

Foyle was on my list too. Now I need to find a sleeper for the 13th.

It's true, but for now I'm pretty happy to have a young guy behind Shaq getting some garbage time in.  ;)

The Warriors, now believe that their biggest competition now and in the future are the Portland Trailblazer.
In accordance with this belief we select Darius Miles.
The blazers now have to add an extra 10 million to their cap, take that Blazers.
DKC:  Rockets

Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon

Oh I think it's a great pick, I didn't take him because I wanted someone younger.  He is a great shot blocker.

Haha.  The Trailblazers remind you that 1) we don't have a salary cap, 2) we have a billionaire owner, and 3) Darius' knee is going to explode like an M-80 in the near future.

Still, for a 12th rounder, why not gamble, right?

I think he will be healthy, as anyone who have read any of my pro D-Miles posts on the possible free agent threads.
