He was never an All-Star.


He certainly looked like he was going to be a perennial after the 2004 playoffs against the Pistons though. Oh well.

dude come on, you know next round he's going to pick A_O_AL F__LE and you won't be able to say that. Dude is the best defensive stopper in the league
 
Im pretty sure there are still 15-20 better players than RJ available.

not on the wing...
not at PF, that position has been drained.. ditto PG.

no, I don't see 15-20 better players out there at all.
 
I'll trade Dirk for a nice young player or picks, PM with offers.
 
SEND ME OFFERS FOR MY PICK! you can pick a guy now! so send me offerss!

in the end I got Dwight Howard in the middle so I feel safe about stopping ppl.


RJ gives me a guy who's been to the finals, Olympics and was an all-star.. works for me for the 59th pick

</div>

Haha I'm trying to say that Dwight Howard can be effective even if he's paired with people who can't play defense that well, but I can't do so without hinting to yet-to-be-picked players! Oh well, RJ and Dwight isn't a bad combo, but you could have had a great duo if you paired him with say, a Tayshaun Prince (toots own horn) who might not be the scorer that RJ is, but makes up for it in other ways.

I like Prince's defense a bit more than Battier's, but you can't go wrong with either one. I think he makes a better 3rd man, but that's just my perceptions.

but considering I got him with my 4th round pick, I think its a steal.
 
That's true. hm, I just realized that we shouldn't be talking about him. whoops.
 
woopss, my badddd its confusing with both drafts happening at the same time....


 
Garnett, Iverson, and Josh Howard.

Do I really need a PG?
 
For the record CK, I was talking about Josh Howard. He and Dwight would have been great.

I thought you were talking to CF

I don't care for Howard's game, I looked at him and went with a more dependable player in Jefferson.

I also don't like Prince enough to pick him this high, someone else liked him but meh, he's like Horry in that he disappears on offence when you need him to do something.
 
Wasn't Emeka already taken?

edit: this is what happens when I get the two GM Drafts confused with each other. Nevermind
 
Not that I'm aware of....unless you are speaking of the other draft

but I just looked through selections and I could only find one Emeka.
 
okafor WAS still available, I got a list of players I want and I cross'em off as they disappear


I find this a bit silly to have 2 simillar drafts going on at the same time, I mean all you have to do is look at the other draft and there's little to no chance of ppl forgetting about someone and letting them slip.

but oh well
 
Hey guys just wanted to say that I will be updating the rosters page at the end of each round, in case people are getting antsy
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kid Chocolate @ Aug 13 2008, 09:38 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>0 PM's in the other draft, yet I get 3 when it's my pick in this one!</div>

lol sorry my priority is this draft and usually I'm pretty good about PMing everyone in either draft


My bad.
