Start offering your trades for my pick now- I assume kc'll pick quickly, and so will I.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

I'm not trading my pick at this point. And I will pick quickly.

wisely, you think, young padawan</p>

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Luke, I pm'ed you a while ago, not sure if you picked it up.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Some gift in Yao.

 

[Premier]

Gasol, as the tenth selection, was a pleasant surprise at this point.

 

[Real]

I'm suprised someone who was an All-NBA First Team selection last year fell out of the top 10, especially since he's a big man. </p>

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

my pick is coming up. I'm still willing to move down for the right deal.

Couldn't pass up Yao for him.</p>

Understandable, but Pau and Dwight are questionable.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Dwight would always be picked higher than I would ever take him.

 

[lukewarmplay]

I like Pau more- I agree it's debatable, but how's Amare's d these days?

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Yao & Pau!

 

[lukewarmplay]

Skipped picks seem to induce more skipped picks, as it becomes hard to gauge when you'll be up- what do the guys running this think of a set schedule, with like 2 or 3 hours for each pick, so you know when you're supposed to be there and also that way late night/early morning deadlines can be avoided?

 

[Kid Chocolate]

I still don't think the clock should be run during night-time hours.

 

[Dark Defender]

Deron Williams, good bad? I need some feedback.</p>

Had some good offers but I like Deron to I couldnt pass him up.</p>

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Young, PG, good. Can do a lot worse.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Should start recruiting guys to take over those 3 skipped picks...

Is he the number two point guard in the NBA? I guess considering his youth, he might be.</p>

 

[ly_yng]

I can think of 2 PG off the top of my head that I'd take over Deron Williams.</p>

GK or Giantsfan, I'm interested in trading for your first rounder, without giving up mine. If this is possible, shoot me a PM.</p>

 

[speeds]

So many picks skipped, could be a mess at some point in the near future.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

No mentioning of players yet to be taken!

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Peg should be on the clock until 10:10 PM EST.

 

[Denny Crane]

I'm not sure that scheduling times makes sense. If someone has 3 hours and picks in the 1st minute, the next guy should be free to pick.</p>

Given there's like 80 days+ until the season starts, we may be trying to rush to get the draft done, though there's something like 360 picks to be made or we need to get between 4 and 5 done per day to meet that schedule.</p>

Picking Garnett over Duncan is the worst decision you could possibly make. I'd love to know what went through your head when you decided on that one. They aren't even remotely comparable players. Duncan is light years beyond Garnett. They're in separate galaxies.

 

[Premier]

The way that I view it is that Tim Duncan is no worse than being among the top two players in the league and Kevin Garnett is no worse than being among the top six players in the league.

 

[cpawfan]

If by the end of the first round none of the three people have picked the draft will move ahead with just 27 teams unless replacements come forward.

Trade: Utah (kid chocolate) trades 2nd round pick, 4th round pick, 7th round pick to</p>

for</p>

Milwaukee (JCB) 1st round pick, 10th round, 11th round. </p>
