2011 CelticsBlog Draft Board

[Donoghus]

Hey, what's the deal with everyone having good teams this year?

Yeah, there is very little separation between most of the teams.

A lot of veteran GMs also.  People are finally figuring this thing out.  Combine that with only 24 teams and relatively even views of trade values and you have a very competitive league.  Modified snake helps also.

I'm still shopping Gerald Wallace... Looking at the draft board i think i can afford to shop him for the right price. I would like a big though. Anybody interested.

[RebusRankin]

The vet factors helps. My first year, I think Edgar and Roy's team had 4 first rounders.

Suggestion for playoffs:

I really liked last year in the finals the 1 argument, 1 rebuttal format.

If it was carried over throughout the playoffs I think it'd make life a lot easier for voters, as opposed to have to sift through pages of arguments going back and forth on the same point.

Duncan, Gordon, Deng. All on the block for the right price -- pay attention Edgar!-- PM  me with offers.

[StartOrien]

Randolph, Gasol, Parker not available, but please PM me if you have anybody else who is real good at layups and I'm sure we can work something out.

I don't need anymore MONSTER dunks like this outta Marc "AYO" Gasol:

Agreed, when people who haven't done this before sign up they always end up trading with the veterans more often than not getting the short end of the stick. Also you need to have an understanding of what players general value is which comes from seeing where players are drafted every year. Maybe one guy is great for your team and he is your favorite player but if you can get him next round there is no need to pick him this round.

I'm enjoying my first year of this draft. I did not know it gets intense.

And how!

You'll start seeing a lot of sentences start with "Oh, that's funny!" and then followed by either sarcasm, or a statement involving a random statistic followed by a question mark.

You wanna see intense?  This draft was like the Wild West from '07-'09!

If anyone wants to PM me to tell me who I absolutely have to take with the 4(1) pick, I'm all ears.

Haha.  Nope.  My team with Edgar actually had zero 1st rounders.

The year before, though, I managed three #1s and a high #2 (Amare, AI2, Gay, and Horford).
