Congratulations on receiving my first 10 in this draft

Another great score on English

maybe Sheed deserves another half a point after reading this again... and thanks to mgent to remember me to check this.
:p
I can be wrong I post this without double checking


NOW MULLIN PICK IS MORE THAN BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

[GreenFaith1819]

For the 9th pick this round, The Los Angeles Lakers select:



Elton Brand!

I love the dimension he brings the team. We needed a dedicated low-post offense threat, and this guy gets it done down low.

An above average defender, as well. He will compliment the Bigs that we have so far.

[StartOrien]

With his 6th round pick, Redz selects...  Glen Rice.  

Rumor has it Rice might be on the move.

Guy could play .. I wish he'd had the chance to really make the most of his talents.

I've made enough jokes, clearly I've got Glen Rice.

96-97 he averaged 26.8 points per game, and shot .470 from 3 on 6 attempts per game.

I love him in my offense and have been considering him every round since the 4th  

[Roy H.]

I think the Tracy McGrady pick at this stage is freakin inspired.

32 points, 6.5 boards, 5.5 assists, 46% shooting, 37% from range, 10 free throw attempts per game, 2 steals and only 3 turnovers, and roughly the same USG rate as Kobe Bryant had this season, just a phenomenal year.

Talk about legacy all you want, and the trash that happened in Houston, but McGrady wasn't IN houston then, and he was only 23.

Really good pick.

Great stats.  Unfortunately, that's about as far as his impact went in my opinion.

[nickagneta]

Seems like people is back on track this rounds
seems like Rest works pretty good on peoples minds
and picks are getting better by the time
Nothing strange

I am more than happy to see Mullin picked and English too

Hill and Webber are solid picks

DJ in this round this early is great


Love what i am watching

No love for Sheed though eh?

Wait.

You have Rasheed Wallace and Elvin Hayes on your team and you were calling Kevin Durant a black hole?

[Bahku]

Yeah ... my bad, (the monkey is me).

C'mon Bahku, that was ME posting! You forgot rule number 1:

The Good Doctor! Asimov is my man, (favorite author by far) ... TP for the Asimov nod.

Talk about legacy all you want, and the trash that happened in Houston, but McGrady wasn't IN houston then, and he was only 23.

Really good pick.

I was debating him and Hill, went with Grant and was hoping I could steal Tracy next round.

See, I like Hill more than McGrady, but only just. Hill is a more sure bet that there won't be any chemistry problems, and since there were already 5 or 6 guys on any team that drafted him that would logically have gotten preference over McGrady for PT and touches, you probably want the character guy over the primadonna, which McGrady surely was in Toronto.

But man, in the middle of the 2000's, McGrady was the most lethal scorer I ever seen. Off the dribble, he was more deadly than any stupid Black Mamba. He was longer and taller than anyone who guarded him, and he could even play the point in a snap.

McGrady's biggest knock was and is that he never 'won anything', but his biggest complaint was and is that he didn't have the cast needed to win something.

I guess the rubber meets teh road here, eh?

[33-00-32]

Is it me? I'm in a whirl wind right now...

Love this pick too.

Ditto. His MVP caliber season was an inspiration.
