Went for a young big guy I believe in with Amir Johnson

PF/C : Nene, Frye & Amir
SF: Bowen & Harpring
SG: Kevin Marting
PG: Roy & Watson

Yeah, I remember you believed in him last year, too.

 

[ghoti]

I said he was going to start. Oops.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Amir is one of those guys with all the hype in the world, but has never done sh*t. Or has done sh*t. One of them.

 

[Charles]

Damn I wanted Pavlovic.

 

[Celtic Fan]

Dammnit Crane.. I KNEW you were going to jack Davis on me.. I just f'n knew it.

I was actually getting my hopes up too...
ugh, having him as my swig man off my bench would have been so sweet too.

 

[bbwchingy0007]

Anyone think I'm going a little overboard on the Cavs players?

Diop, Gooden, Gibson, Pavlovic and Mo Williams have all played for the Cavs (or are on the team). You think anyone would know I'm a Cavs fan?

 

[Celtic Fan]

you're only real problem is you don't have LeBron to bail them out

 

[Denny Crane]

Ricky Davis played for the Cavs.

 

[Celtic Fan]

ugh.. I gotta sit through 50 some odd picks, I'm looking at my list, thinking there's no way I'm getting Ricky Davis or Mo Pete.. then it's getting closer and closer to my picks, I think 'alright, I'm going to get one of them.. this looks good' then BAM, 4 picks before my turn.. I hate these super long drafts.. they just kill me with the anticipation.

 

[DynastYWarrioR6]

lol I'm the last pick of the draft....so I feel the same way...but more?

I still have alot of fun, takes alot of NBA knowledge to come up with backup plans and whatnot. I'm happy.

 

[Celtic Fan]

ugh but I start to hate my options after a while and second guess my team.
It's my nature I guess.

anyone up for an all-era draft latter on?

I LOVE doing them, you really learn more about previous era's etc.

of course most young guys just harp on the 'athleticism' of today's players yadda, yadda, forgetting about how different older players would perform with today's better training, travel and medical treatment. Or the fact that half the guys from the 60's and 70's would give you an sharp elbow in the face or ribcage and no whistles would blow.

still it's fun to read up on older players while making your list

 

[DynastYWarrioR6]

I'd do any draft

 

[Celtic Fan]

you missed the MMA draft

 

[DynastYWarrioR6]

you missed the MMA draft

I should've added: "related to NBA basketball"



if you really want to go off-topic from basketball, I suggest an ALL-Pokemon draft in the off-topic forum. Their basic levels....hehehe

 

[Celtic Fan]

ummm, I was in my 20's when that stuff came out.

now axis & allies, well I'll blitzkrieg your butt anytime.. and you have Zero chance vs me in Age of Empires II

I call Charizard

 

[Celtic Fan]

I call Charizard

sounds like a new type of blizzard at DQ

 

[Kid Chocolate]

last time i did a basketball draft where you were allowed to pick any players, past or present, i was kicked out for taking ann meyers and the professor with back to back picks.

HAHAHA Classy, good man

And, whoever called Charizard...you'd have to call Charmander first, because we need to talk about the youth and how they'll get better....like in this draft

 

[GMJ]

It looks like the draft is slowing down, so I'm just going to take my 12th round ceremonial pick with my 9th round pick.

This draft actually moves really fast lol...I mean we can probably catch up with the first draft

but are you picking Ad_n_l F_yl_e??

 

[Celtic Fan]

we have slowed down. The last 3 sunday mornings, I've had a pm (or 4) telling me it was my pick. then on Sunday I'd get my 2 picks in and wait a week

 

[Denny Crane]

I'm up for an all-time draft. We should try using a Drupal group to do it tho.

 

[huevonkiller]

I deleted that post I accidentally made in the selection thread.

What I said was that Etan Thomas at the end of the eighth round seems pretty decent to me.

You probably cussed him out, but thought better of yourself at the end...

Seriously every player I wanted to fall just got taken like the last 7 picks in a row.

 

[pegs]

That happens sometimes when you have a draft that started a while before this one, and people look at that draft for players to pick in this one.
