Yeah I did, but I bet it was much faster. At least it felt that way.

I think Vince Carter going no. 2 overall really slammed the breaks on this whole thing

The steal of the draft.

It was also magical timing that he picked right when his time ran out, making us wait all 6 hours.
</div>

I agree with you i hate that people who pick when his time ran out.

Just messing CK.


It seems slow now because we've hit a rough patch, methinks.
 
Im ok with this... but lets do a sim league or fantasy league

Why? Your next pick isn't until the next round. There's no need to stay up like that when you know your pick isn't for a while.

Just check in casually everyday, see where we are in the draft, and once we get close to your pick (withing 2-3 spots), then start to pay attention.
</div>

Overly anxious lol...
plus I spend alot of time just playing with rosters in my head, and I check the 2nd GM Draft alot because we only need two more people to start it. So I keep checking it and tring to organize it and think of stuff for it and whatnot.

Why Mayo when you have Crawford and Parker?</div>


I was going to pick a PF... but none of the PF's remaining really intrigued me. Like the remaining ones all sorta did the same thing so I figured I would have an easier time picking later on when it narrows down. Mayo on the other hand has all the potential to be great in the league. I know he is a solid defender and can obviously shoot. I may actually start Mayo and have Crawford come off the bench to score and run the show after Parker / Mayo. Sort of like how Ginobili comes off the bench for the spurs to provide offense. I dunno at this point of the draft... I just picked the bpa with the most potential and he again, is a great defender, something crawford isn't exactly known for.

why? did you want him? lol

Mayo was on my list, but I was curious as to the thinking, when most people would fill out their starting 5, no matter the talent division.

I like your thinking on this pick, and I think it was a good pick. Nice job.

Haha, you're bad man.
 
Um. I say we skip syc, because that's just dumb.
 
im summer interning abroad so my time zone here is 12 hours ahead - i picked when i woke up and now i just walked into work so get off my ass. the time gap is the time i spent on commuting. ill pick soon.
 
i thought his wing D would balance well with Brand defending the paint. I think I can pick up more scoring, if needed, later in the draft and thought it was important to have a lockdown defender in the starting lineup. Plus, his 3 point shooting compliments Maggette's slashing style well as Maggette and drive and kick out (helping Brand in the paint to draw doubles doesn't hurt either).
 
Brad Miller is a guy I'd have picked ahead of Bogut.
 
Heh, I love the picture. Shane Battier is awesome.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticKing @ Aug 5 2008, 10:35 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Brad sucks, plus he smokes ganja.</div>

which makes him that much more lucid on court.
 
Anyone want my pick? PM me with good offers now.
 
hows my pick?

I figured with Nash and Manu I really needed a perimeter defender and needed more toughness.

He also has a great career 3pt% which makes it really good playing along side Nash and Manu.

5 game suspension.
</div>

Gives him free days to do more smoking. lol

He's probably top 10 as an assist guy in the NBA. (being able to pass the ball so well)

You go to sleep at 5am, shut up. I know who you want anyway, I'll pick for you.
