2012 'Pick Two' Draft Board

[The Walker Wiggle]

Come on guys, IP shouldn't have to police you guys like this. You should know what picks you own.

That's the jump off.

Hey Nick how many picks do you have?

[KCattheStripe]

IP's lazy. Make him work.

[theswitch]

I'll fish for some thoughts, too

PG: Jrue Holiday
SG: Joe Johnson
SF:
PF: Amar'e Stoudemire
C:

6th Man of the Year: Ryan Anderson

Obviously I have two big holes on my roster right now so I'll have to repost this after I conveniently pick twice this round. I'm cool with Amar'e and Ryan playing big minutes together (definitely towards the end of games, generally) but I think Anderson's best value is as a 6th man of the year candidate.

11.

My patience here literally is paper-thin. I'm about to be sent home from work sick, I want to clear this up first before I do. We need 1 more pick from you.

PG   Ricky Rubio
SG   Marcus Thornton
SF   
PF   Kevin Love
C   Samuel Dalembert

I'm pretty happy with where the T-Wolves are at to this point. Will probably be looking for a little more offense in the next couple of rounds with not so much concern over position. Any thoughts?

Definitely like your core. You'll get a decent amount of scoring out of Thornton and Love but I agree that you need some punch off the bench or at the SF spot. Dalembert was the best talent on the board when you took him but I'm a little concerned he'll be aging (30 now) in 3 years when you're really a contender.

I'm hoping to put the scare in some teams this year, I really like Love and think he's just getting started with what he can do if he gets any talent around him. Hopefully i can continue to do that for him. Thanks for the thoughts, TP.

Working with CFF to adjust that trade again. Hopefully I can eliminate the fluff, or have him go through his previous trade/s so I know exactly what he has.

My apologies for the way this has dragged.

I'd go defense next, actually. Your defense is suffering between Love/Thornton. Either lock up a wing defender or a frontcourt defender, and pickup another PG to help Rubio along.

Those are in the plans as well but I think can come later, it will come down to what's available when the picks roll around, thanks for the thoughts. TP.

Nice work. Offensively, one of the best team's around. Obviously a STAT/Ryan Anderson front court is going to struggle defensively. But Ryan is shooting the ball so well you're also going to have a hard time keeping the pair off the floor, whether or not you bring him off the bench.

I'm also a big Holiday fan and looking forward to the J.J. and Amare pick and roll.

Can we not let this be a thing?

I was in the process of writing much of the same. I think you need to find a big with toughness who can play stopper and works well on help D and can grab some boards.

I say just start him.  He's not going to bring as much punch off the bench as he will playing off Amare the whole game.  I'd give him as much space as possible and let him go back to what he was doing when he had Gallanari instead of Melo.

Thanks, TP. Not too worried about putting up points at this point, time to make sure the whole "defense" thing is addressed.

My apologies. I knew you were sick and that we are all big boys here and that you didn't need to be sifting through every trade making sure people were watching things.

That I would just get your back here.

If people took offense to my comment, I apologize. I will edit it out of the above post.
