Damn. I wanted Penny

You are on the clock

I wanted Penny too. He was going to be my late-round homer pick but I see I wasn't the only one with thoughts of him.

Definitely not. I was considering him with one of my next two picks.

I hope he's not taken yet.

No, he was available. Good pick and you get a bonus point for not picking my target!

BTW, you can check all the players selected on the "Draft" thread, page 1 at the top.

Who's picking?

That would be you but you are not allowed to select a player I want.

Oh, haha - Worthy was a guy I was discussing. Excellent choice!

Did he forget he was on? 

You thought me? No, just a little bit of discussion with myself. Looking for photo, too.

Pretty big surprise with King. Alonzo is a great pick.

Love Chris Paul pick. He was never going to drop to my next but if he did, he'd be my backup PG.

North Korea celebrity should be going any time now...

Kim Jong Il, SG

Any of you guys happen to work for EA Sports so we could see simulated versions of what might happen with these teams if they actually played each other?

My company was recently engaged by EA Games for a small project in Australia. Once we roll this out, I don't mind talking to my boss to see whether we can get in touch with someone at EA who'd be willing to consider this. Definitely a long shot but doesn't cost anything to ask.

Unbelievable team. Legends falling to you every time with the clear and unpredictable (for me at least) contemporary bias taking place in this draft.

Cheers. Although more or less old-timers, I think I have guys who really transcend different periods and whose skills are portable to any given point in time.

I upped both of your selections. Good choices.

Thanks. Hayes is the guy I really wanted at PF - scores from inside and out, rebounds and he is a blocking machine. I can switch him to C, too - he more than held his own against some greats at the position.

Great pick SAM

My picks are in, I am very happy with how the team is shaping up.

Ok. UCLA defense is great

Ed_Reed20 has been skipped, you are on the clock.

Looks like we'll have our first skip in 15 minutes.

Since I inadvertently started the whole Dirk-Malone discussion, I need to clarify that it wasn't a knock on Dirk. He definitely is very good player. I guess I'm just more of a traditionalist here, expecting top notch defensive skills from PF position.

Sure. I'll be up for a while tonight.

Thanks, little board PM'd. Won't do much time saving in case my pick prediction for the next two is wrong, have sent only two names.

Can anybody take my board? It's midday here and I'm leaving until evening, so we can move little bit in case Ed_Reed20 makes his picks.

Kenny Hill looks good for A&M. So good that Kenny Football is trending on twitter right now

How Johnny looks, Browns will have high enough pick to get Hill in few years, as well

I still don't understand how Dirk went before Karl Malone

Wow, I totally underestimated Durant's value in this draft. Crazy but I like the pick, nevertheless.

Another great pick with Isaiah.

Looking at the rosters at this point is a little bit on a freakish side.

I see what you did there

1st thing or the second?

I was sitting at a neighboring blackjack table as Sir Charles at a casino in AC, and then my wife ran into him at a Rite Aid in Bryn Mawr the same week. I love my old Sixers. Oh, and that golf swing:

 

You saw Sir Charles in a casino? Unbelievable....

Thanks, he was one of my all time favorite players to watch.

He is still my favourite player of all time
