Tracy McGrady is nice and all but I wouldn't pick him if he wasn't BPA simply because he's we've seen teams build around him and it ain't pretty.

Shit, we've seen McGrady paired up with a player like Yao Ming and it still ain't pretty.

I'd just as soon either pass him up and take somebody else, or take him and use him for trade bait.

Did anybody besides Real and myself watch the Wizards at all last year?

</div>

Who would you take Butler ahead of, that went before him?
</div>

Don't see how that's relevant since CK said he went earlier than he should have. I think I took him right when he should have been selected. But anyway:

Vince Carter
Tracy McGrady
Andre Iguodala

are the only three I would have definitely selected Butler ahead of.
</div>

I'd have taken him over Shawn Marion too. Maybe Monta Ellis but that's a tough call.
 
Went with Okafor. Bigs are starting to dwindle and my PF-C combo is great

He's a very good pick. Solid 13 and 10 guy who can get you two blocks a game.

Everybody seems to think he's injury prone, but he played and started all 82 games last year.

You need a point though.

yeah but most of the points available right now weren't worthy of being taken over Okafor. I feel I'll be able to draft one of the same caliber in the 4th round as I would have in this round

I agree, 20-30 is around where he should've gone.

Although Jamison did drop a bit - he's worth a mid to late 2nd rounder, at least.
</div>

Nah. I think both of them went where they should have.
 
I think McGrady is a lot better than Butler. Just sayin'.
 
Someone make a trade with me, I'm bored.
 
Carter>>>>>>>>>>>>>Butler

Anyway i want to know if my andre miller pick was horrible or good pick.
 
Josh Howard and Gerald Wallace on the same team? How is that going to work
 
McGrady is a lot better than Butler. Jamison went right around where he should have.

Nvm I just realized Jamison's 32. Gotta take age into account...he went around where he should have
 
I don't think age should be really taken into account in this draft because it's a one year thing. Jamison still is going to perform better next year than guys taken before him.

We are participating in completely different activities.

The way I see it, unless S2 goes out of business, age matters a lot.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jerseycarter15 @ Aug 1 2008, 02:41 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>what do you guys think of my andre miller pick.</div>

To be honest, I don't really want to evaluate your picks because you made a bit of a joke of the whole thing by taking Vince Carter second overall.

You couldn't find anyone to trade with who wanted that pick?

I'm willing to make a completely unfair trade with you to give him back, if you're willing!

</div>

Maybe this year (and that is assuredly all), but even that is not certain. I definitely wouldn't bet on it.

What is 100% certain is that your team could have been much better, and several people who drafted after you got better as a result.
 
what do you guys think of this team so far

C- Amare, SG- Josh Howard and SF-Gerald Wallace
 
I think a certain perspective needs to be taken to understand the genius that is jerseycarter15. He's doing everything in his power to get Ricky Rubio next year.

I mean yeah you can bring it up next year when we have our 3rd GM draft, but what good is that gonna do when there is a new draft taking place.

No.
 
How far do you guys think Carter would've dropped had jerseycarter not picked him?
 
i meant to quit much earlier, but i never got on the comp, then when i got on, i had 4 PMs to pick
meh
 
Carter would have fallen to whoever the next die hard Nets fan was

i'll add i shouldve picked, i'm sorry about that
 
I make the best trade proposals. I really do, you wish you made trade proposals as good as mine.


EDIT: I just had the coolest idea. I wanna do a 3 way with two people (preferably 2 girls), PM me if you're interested
