2012 - CB draft board "Let's get it on!"

[Lucky17]

Rush resigned with Golden State this week (yesterday?), and he might conceivably start for them.

I like Roy as the point-SG for the second unit.

[Evantime34]

because we're on a break I have a question. Who do you guys think I should start while Rose and Shumpert are recovering?
Option 1:
Lillard, George, Williams, Anderson, Cousins
Option 2:
Lillard, Young, George, Anderson, Cousins
Option 3:
Lillard, George, Anderson, Couisns, Okafor
Option 4:
Lillard, Young, George, Cousins, Okafor

Lillard, Young and George on the perimeter. Cousins at center. Either Ryan Anderson or Derrick Williams at power forward.

I would like to see Nick Young come off the bench though. Lot of guys in that lineup who need the ball offensively. I think someone like N.Young would be better off the bench.

If you could find a low usage SG (shooter/defender) with your next pick, I'd do that and start him there with N.Young coming off the bench along with Emeka Okafor. The new SG doesn't need starter's minutes, he could just be a 15-20mpg guy.

Won't Shumpert be that guy once he comes back?
TP for responding

Yeah, Shumpert can definitely be that guy once he returns.

I'd add another SG to be that guy while Shupert is on the sidelines. Someone who can then slip into the fifth wing in your depth chart role once Shumpert returns.

I wonder a bit about Shumpert when Rose returns though. I like him with Lillard who is reportedly a lights out shooter. But Shumpert isn't really a floor spacer for Rose. And Rose is a terrific penetrator who will be best served by as much floor spacing as possible.

Nick Young would probably be better as the starter then with Shumpert in the backup SG role.

Still some concerns about so many offensive players who needs touches and shots but I don't see a way to work around that. Shumpert would do fine as a starter with Rose; I just think Nick Young would do a bit better.

My thoughts on starting Shumpert are that him, Rose and George are all plus defenders.
As far as a floor spacer, I have something the Bulls haven't had with Rose, a four with range out to 3. Cousins can also hit the j so maybe for portions of the game I could run an inverted offense with the bigs spacing the floor so Rose has room to drive and Shumpert can cut behind him (similar to what the Celtics do with Rondo and Bradley)

Isn't the 11.1 next?

But he isn't playing in the NBA this upcoming season...

Good Lord, I read this while I was sipping soda, spilled it out of laughter, all over the keyboard.

You owe me a keyboard Gomesfan.

[Gomesfan]

That's my pick from last round

I don't think you get a re-pick, my man.

I may end up giving you a TP for every player you select... honestly believing they're still available.

[Roy H.]

Sadly, Krstic literally provides nothing next season, as he's going to be playing in Europe (and thus is eligible to be drafted, but not to play, in the CB Draft).

[Who]

Ah, I say give it to them.

They asked if Anthony Parker was available prior to making their pick and I responded that he was. I didn't know he had retired.

Trade:

Wizards trade:
11.10
12.2

Jazz trade:
11.1

[Gomesfan]

Told me to.repick last page.... So I did

[Roy H.]

New York should take back that pick and choose someone else.

Not allowed, unfortunately, although if NY wants Krstic over Parker, I doubt anybody cares too much.
