2016 CB Draft: Draft Thread: Important Announcement

[Gainesville Celtic]

Trade Announcement:

Brooklyn Nets trade 2.24, 3.24, 4.7, 5.24 edit: 5.22

Golden State Warriors trade 2.8, 4.23, 7.8, 11.8

[Rondo2287]

Thats a doozy.  I'm now trying to picture who is going to get paired with Cousins.  Should be interesting.  I have one guy in mind that would be really fun potentially or go down in flames real fast.

[RJ87]

Gonna be a few minutes before I pick guys, got called into a quick work meeting.

[The Walker Wiggle]

I'm having a difficult time deciding between a couple of players I love, depending on how these next two picks go, I'm probably willing to move back a few spots from 2.10 for nominal gains to spare myself the decision. Let me know.

[Gainesville Celtic]

I'm gonna be afk for a bit (but will follow as much as poss. on my phone). So I won't be updating the board or processing trades.

So if you make a trade the team with the original pick should get who the new team wants, then pick them like this:

Dallas drafts Kemba Walker... rumor is he's on the move.

Go with your gut:

[RJ87]

With pick 2.8, the Brooklyn Nets select Andrew Wiggins

[Soytiz]

NOP selects Nicolas Batum with Pick 9 of Round 2...

[The Walker Wiggle]

NOP selects Nicolas Batum with Pick 9 of Round 2...

Sorry for the delay gents. I was on the train. The Pelicans made my decision somewhat easier, I was looking hard at Batum. With the 10th pick of the 2nd round, the Philadelphia 76ers select another Walker Wiggle favorite, Danilo Gallinari.

First two picks got some height

[Celtic Fan Forever]

This pick might seem a bit surprising to some, but this guy is a monster in the advanced stats department. Top 25 in VORP and WS/48 and top 10 in real plus minus... as a rookie. Per 36 stats of:  16.5 ppg  11.6 rpg and 3.9 apg.

With the 11th pick in the 2nd round, Orlando selects Nikola Jokic

[Denis998]

Detroit Pistons select CJ McCollum

With the 11th pick in the 2nd round, Orlando selects Nikola Jokic

He was a monster in DFS this year.  Took a while for value to catch up to him.

Love this pick.

Does everything you want from an offensive center - shoots, passes, rebounds, scores inside. His defensive plus-minus stats are pretty excellent too.

[BigAlTheFuture]

Have 2.25, looking to move up.

If your guy got taken, let me know.
