    This is getting out of hand. I'm not trying to block your trade cause I like Chauncey. I'm just saying that Josh Smith is worth more, to me.

    His 3pt percentage is trash though. With harris idk if I can afford that. If anyone wants to trade me harris for a future pick let me know

    There's one reason I want Chauncey, but I'm not gonna give it away. And for the record, I wanna keep Lawson too.

    He and Jamal Crawford take the worst 3s in basketball.

    Watching that Orlando-Atlanta series pissed me off since they took so many TERRIBLE shots and they just kept going in.

    IMO, you never want Joe Johnson as your primary option as he will take bad shots. Just like Russell Westbrook.

    Even though, JJ has bad percentages for last year, I think he's still a good shooter. He had a wrist injury which hurt him last year (IIRC).

    I dunno how anyone can see JJ as a bad shooter. Takes bad shots sure, but he'll knock down open shots

    Lol I want to pick crawford. That playoff series where he hit so many crazy triples, he's awesome. And with kd he will get plenty of open shots

    Crawford will knock down open shots. Same with Joe Johnson.

    Like Kobe doesn't have the greatest 3PG% but he's still a great shooter

    Smith was taken end of first round. Chauncey was taken in the first part of the fourth. He isn't gonna get a better starting point guard.
    Especially for his backup 3.
    I like Smith as a 4 anyway, but with Amare, and Hickson, there is no room for him there.

    Also, consider the spacing on his team. He needs a great shooter.

    Over billups.

    If you want a good 3pt shooting pg there's a 40 percent magical three pt shooter up there

    He has yet to be taken. There is a reason Billups was taken so early.

    I wonder where Aaron Brooks would have gone if this draft was held last year.

    I dunno why, but I randomly wondered about this.

    Well I took him that early only because I wanted a shooter from 3 and he was the best available AND I could afford him. The other pg is just as good imo. The other may have fallen under the radar. Bigman could have picked him over hickson imo

    I know PER doesn't measure everything, but it is certainly a useful metric.

    You guys do realize that Billups has a better PER over Lawson and Felton.
    He has a very similar PER to what Josh Smith gives you.

    Silence........ very few point guards in the league are in that range.
    Btw, I don't think NY would offer a 14 million extension to many point guards.
