My (late) pick is in. Reports say he'll be ready for the season - fingers crossed.

That means I have to fly out to Philly to ruin it. Sorry man

You don't scare me. Or Tony.

Ughh. Seriously. Good pick in Winslow. I should have my pick in within the hour.

Looks like you're up in the NFL version as well.

My next guy was Payton. That's disappointing

You are on the clock.

You are on the clock.

Thanks, all done.

 

Getting pretty tough to find quality.

Thanks. Definitely a short-term rental. Your roster (Duncan, Parker, Wade) actually came to mind when I realized I didn't have enough playoff experience/championship status. Needed an old head like Pierce in there.

 

I'm a bit late on the response, but I'm glad to hear that the trio put more confidence into making that selection. I definitely agree about the benefits of having players with significant playoff experience and leadership plays into as well in my eyes. All four of the older players are leaders in their own ways. The way I see it is that because we less than 30 participants, our teams are able to attain better role players who could come in more often and thereby potentially extend the longevity of our veterans.

No problem. Agreed on the latter.

Negger's back out in full force. I like the Muhammad pick. He's been very productive in limited minutes when he's healthy. Also a surprisingly good low post threat. Hope to see him keep progressing and stay healthy

Was praying that Chandler would make it back to me. Sad to see him go.

I'm on my phone and I always mess that up because it's hard to get to the big board through mobile lol so I had to make sure

Sorry mate. With basically my first and second team set, I had a few options at that pick. Even though I just drafted Pierce, Chandler was towards the top of my board and I couldn't pass on him

Wolves are going to be nice very soon

Thought he was gone. Nice pick

Of course they are - they signed Bjelica

All we need to do is allow coaches to be drafted so you can take Coach K and complete the party.

[BmoreBird22]

Do we only do 11 rounds? Aren't NBA rosters 11 men?

A minimum of 13 actually, 12 active and 1 inactive are supposed to be on every roster. Teams are allowed to have 15 signed players so the last 2 rounds are voluntary.

If Wiggins develops a jump shot and Muhammed learns how to play defense then yes
