The Pick Two Draft Thread 2011

[fairweatherfan]

my eyes be illin', but the picked player list is up to date...I don't don't know if anyone uses that list besides me anyhow...I just can't keep straight whose available w/o looking

TP because I have been using that and just mentally crossing out the guys I knew had been taken.

Jeez. Props to Redz...I gave up on that list early last week!

yeh, there was a lot more there than I bargained for, but once I started I couldn't stop (that's how I roll).  I'd updated it a few times...

Nice work, Redz.

If I might so bold, a couple others to cross off: Aminu, Shannon Brown, Austin Daye, D Gibson, Nazr, Zaza, Brandon Rush, Larry Sanders, Ben Wallace, T Williams.

Great trade for Miami.

Now they have Wade, LeBron, and 'LeBron without the ball handling skills or isolation offense and passing ability.'

it just occurred to me...if you ever have one of these drafts and wonder what LeBron playing the 4 would look like..its Josh Smith, but better with the ball in his hands.

Miami are going to be hell to play against with Wade, LeBron and Josh Smith two through four.

Their combined defensive ability is amazing.

[Roy H.]

Miami is very undersized up front, but they definitely have a ton of talent.

I see what Minnesota was doing here, although I think Raja Bell is close to garbage at this point.  Still, I like the idea of a defender at the 2, and I like having a more traditional PF next to Rashard Lewis.

I'm surprised that Miami was able to squeeze a 9th rounder out of Minnesota, since Smith is probably worth more than Millsap and Bell combined.

He'd also be much more consistent defensively, plus an overall miss match by being able to draw PFs outside.

Yeah, I am not sure they are all that different from the real life team though.  They will run all over the bad teams that cannot punish them downlow, and who do not play a tight game.  However, in a 7 game series against a disciplined team that can take advantage of their lack of size, they will struggle.

Yeah...pretty much guarantees a David Stern wet dream Pick 2 Finals....Miami versus Los Angeles.

Put em up, put em up.
