Anyone else thing being a good team is going to hurt RJ's value this year? Kinda like being on the C's hurt Ray Allen's production?

i think it has impacted it...i am hoping he still gets his numbers. i just had slim pickings having to wait until today to get my first 2 picks.

As the former assistant to KC and the Griz, I will be making his second pick of this round for him. He has sent me a list of players he wanted and I cleared this with Dons. After this act, KC will be the only rep for Memphis. I thank him for the opportunity to help.

I think RJ is a great pick. I just think its kinda ironic that good players somehow get 'worse' individually because they're on a winning team.

But isnt this draft different than a fantasy draft, sure his numbers may go down, but his play will still be there if not elevated.  His threat on the offensive end and defensive presence will still be there.  Which is all you can ask for.  His level of play will be consistant even though his numbers may go down.  You can bring up Ray Allen, but you can also bring up KG his numbers went down a little, but he was still defensive player of the year and an mvp candidate

Not that it matters.  As long as the other GMs like him and he plays well, it's a good pick.  Not fantasy points here.

Minnesota would like to welcome its new head coach: Kevin McHale. The previous ownership didn't realize what they had in Coach McHale and now we are correcting their errors!

He was talking on the plane ride home from last years playoff loss with players trying to convince them to come to the Jets, I mean Timberwolves.
"Let me call him," Floyd said.

The man shook his head. "O.J. doesn't give out his cell," he said. "He'll call you."
