2012 'Pick Two' Draft Board

[Merovech]

Merovech is up, no? I actually know who he wants, but am no authorized to make the pick for him.

Oh, thought there was another person before me.  I'll take Vince Carter.

Now i know he is cooked.

Huh?  Carter's signed a three-year contract this year, so I'm not worried about him retiring, and he's still incredibly efficent and somewhat productive.

[StartOrien]

Just to confirm, theswitch is up?

Also switch, am I still picking for you?

THESE ARE MY QUESTIONS AND I WANT THEM ANSWERED

[indeedproceed]

Switch is up now.

[Roy H.]

Yeah, I think Battier's defense has been very good; it's the offense that has looked terrible.  I don't have any major concerns about him defending 2-guards. 

FAKE EDIT:  I guess Synergy rates him somewhere around average, as opposed to the very good you'd assume from 82 games.

I like the KNicks to beat your team in a contest of basketballs.

[riah32]

I'll listen to offers for everyone and anyone but really like what i have going so far.

[ChampKind]

I like J Rich at the 3 more than I do at the 2. I don't think he has the quickness to keep up with 2's any longer.

Yeah, that's what the Magic did with him before bringing Hedo back. At 6'6", 225 he's got the size/strength to handle it, and the slower position should help him adjust defensively. Offensively, he'd be filling pretty much the same role alongside Afflalo - his steady ball handling and ability to elevate will bring lots to that offense. I think they can coexist, but I'm open to finding a truer 3 as the draft wears on.

"Really Excited to see that this guys is still available! The Orlando Magic are PSYCHED to select Ronnie Brewer! YAAAAAY! Please let me know what you think of my team in the general discussion thread, thanks in advance!"

Like, a basketball collecting contest? Like on guts?

[Roy H.]

I think wdleehi is up.  He's taking Chris Wilcox.

I think that's it for the early session.  We'll wait awhile for the ne'er do wells and lolly gaggers to make their picks, and then reconvene as scheduled.

[Merovech]

What do you guys think about my team?  I think I've built a real contender, just got to get a few back-up rebounding bigs.

PG: Russell Westbrook/Mo Williams
SG: Vince Carter/Mo Williams
SF: Dorell Wright
PF: Shawn Marion
C: Tiago Splitter

[Merovech]

I think wdleehi is up.  He's taking Chris Wilcox.

Darn.  Ah well, I didn't think he'd last until next round.

Yes. Exactly like on G.U.T.S!

Also you understand you're no longer on my christmas list, because you said G.U.T.S.! in lower caps, which we all know is physically impossible. G.U.T.S. is alwalys capitalized. Unlike that crapfest 'Legends Of The Hidden Temple'.

I mean, I always wondered...how come those kids didn't just turn around and duff those olmec guys in the mouth when they grabbed them? What is this, flag football for mister glass? ITS A HIDDEN TEMPLE! RUN!

[Redz]

I have the 11th pick this round

I didn't see Channing Frye on the draft list.  Is he taken?

[Who]

I think wdleehi is up.  He's taking Chris Wilcox.

Interesting running lineup with Wilcox at the four and Bosh at the five.
