Interesting concepts being thrown around but, you know what, it doesn't matter.

Its a subjective game and there are three panelists....for now. The panelists will see things the way they want and vote accordingly and the results will be what they will be.

I would save some of this in depth over-analysis for the team profiles at the end and answer the questions that panelists ask then.

Because for now, let's say Roy has been the dominant voice amongst the panelists. If you start catering your team to what he is saying you might only be pleasing one third, or one fifth or one seventh of the panelists and doing yourself a disservice.

Make the team you feel most comfortable with and that you like the most and that way you will be able to discuss it most intelligently and sway all the panelists to see what you see.

Yes, this does mean I might be adding more panelists or already have some that I have not announced.
How do you cater to your team after the drafting is over?

I disagree that Isiah is not a team player. Early Isiah, no, prime Isiah, champion and team player. Oh and if anybody disagrees McHale is ready to clothesline you.  ;D

This is like the mother of all bar discussions and we're on round 4.

I agree. I don't see Isiah as a "I have to be the main man/scorer" type player. I thought he was a great team player, a natural leader and floor general and a warrior for his size.

I was really surprised to see him go after some of the PGs that went before him.

I agree.

Nice to be back!

I agree. Does no one else remember the 1988 finals where he dropped 25 in the 4th WITH an injury. He was phenomenal! I think he will be a great team player.

Wilt tortues Robinson worse than Hakeem in the 1995 play-offs, McHale destroys your yet to be drafted PF. Meanwhile Barry matches Larry trash talk for trash talk. ;D

Nate Thurmond has more muscle in his pinky than McHale has in whole body.   ;D
Yup

Such a lack of confidence in your fellow CB Draft winning co-GM. <shakes head>

Zach Randolph - Delonte West super team.

No, I'm one of the few guys on this site that thinks talking up your team is nothing compared to the players you actually pick.  I let them do the talking.

Okay then this is easy. You don't cater your picks after the draft is over, you do it during the draft. If some people are listening to what one panelist is saying, say Edgar or Roy, and take what they are saying into consideration before taking picks, they are doing themselves a disservice. Build the team your way and pick the players you want and after the draft is over, profile them the way you want and answer the questions to the best of your abilities.

Don't make me have McHale clothesline your whole team. He'll do it. Just ask Kurt Rambis.  ;D
