2012 'Pick Two' Draft Board

[Celtic Fan Forever]

Anyone want to Co-GM for a second (even if you have a team)? I have absolutely no idea how much everyone'll value a certain player I'm considering at 3.18 and would love some feedback.

I'll help out

[StartOrien]

Lowry

Millsap
Howard

I think that's already a sizable improvement over the knicks.

In all honesty, I really like the start here. Elite defense, without giving up too much on the offense.

I'd like to see you get some smart players at the wing. Easier said than done, but ideally a mix of good defense, good shooting, and players who are smart enough to know to look inside.

[Fafnir]

I mean in that case I can make some picks that will allow him to have a more defined role. My team isn't even remotely complete.

This is true, however having both DeRozan and Beasley on a team. With your starting PG a journeyman without a track record of controlling an offense with talent on it scares me.

Plus Lin has succeeded so far almost entirely within the pick and roll. And I don't think any of your 3 "bigs" Bargs/Bogut/Beasley are good pick and roll players. The closest you have is Bargs in pick and pop situations.

Elite defense based on two players (Lowry/Howard) is early. IP still have to fill out the rest of his roster.

[Who]

OKC trades Russell Westbrook, 4.28, and 8.28
PHI trades Mike Conley, Andre Iguodala, and 3.14

Did this trade go through or not?

There was a problem with a pick. Did it get resolved?

I'm not that concerned with Lin. I don't think he can keep up at this level, but he's a great passer and moves very well without the ball. I think he's a good point guard and he's here to stay.

That being said, good points re: Beasley and Derozan. Lin controls the ball, I think ideally you're looking for slashers or 3 point shooting out of the wing position. I'd look to move Beasely later (he was a good pick, lot of value), and consider trading Derozan or move him to the bench where he can shoot away.

Not that he's enough, but I really like Dorrell Wright's game. Even if he is struggling this year.

He's having a bad, bad year.  He's been borderline horrific on defense:  308th in the NBA in points allowed per possession.  He's regularly getting out-shot, out-scored, out-rebounded, and out-passed by his opponents.

Offensively, he's been mediocre at best.  Coupling that with his terrible defense, I don't think Wright is a very useful player at all.

Where do you get all these stats Sir Roy? And I agree that he's having a bad year. He's struggling right now but he'll pick it up. I don't know what happened to his defense but he was solid last year. Maybe it was part of the struggles.

But he's good enough to open the lanes for "Derrick Rose South". I get to move up to 4th since i gutted the team to get Westbrook. Not like Iggy and Conley is gonna bring me anywhere anyway. At least I got a superstar to work with.

3.8 will get skipped in 3 minutes, right?

Doesn't 3.9 too?

You barely move up in the 4th compared to how far you move back in the 2nd and the 5th.
