2011 CelticsBlog Draft Board

I harbor an irrational hatred for LarBrd33 to this day

So, with contraction and the "modified snake", I think we may have finally undercut the "superstar factor".  There are so many good teams that I don't think that having Lebron or Howard is going to guarantee anything once the playoffs come around.

I'm not so sure, contraction will help the teams with MVP caliber players immensely when they fill out their rosters.

We'll see, off the top of my head w/o looking at the board I can think of two teams I'd rank ahead of the teams with lebron & howard at this point in time.

thank you thank you

One first rounder and five second rounders from last year still haven't been picked.  Meanwhile, we've had two fourths, two fifths, a sixth, and an eighth selected so far. It's interesting how perception changes year-to-year.

[StartOrien]

I guess there's no downside to saying them:

KWhit's team and IP's,

Again, not looking at the roster, just two teams that stuck out to me during the drafting process.

The MVP teams will be deeper, but so will everyone else.  In previous years, since a lot of teams were thin, the teams with elite front-end talent floated to the service.  This year, not so much.

Those teams have had higher picks so far.

From now on the snake will we even going forward.

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:

Yeah, we definitely have enough monster dunks.  Any more would just be silly.

SO, did you trade away our really solid SF and SG thats probably really good at something?

Ya, but let's isolate Nick/Rondo & IP's team here:

At this point in the game, with all the superstars gone: It'll be just as challenging for IP to find someone to match up against Lebron as it will be for Nick/Rondo to get another piece to defend Bogut/Amare.

Unfortunately I moved them for 'my signature not looking like such an eye sore'

[RebusRankin]

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

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).

That's the team I was thinking of, my first year 2008

The man was intense. I found him quite interesting as a rookie in 2008.
