    I had Bynum pegged as a definite top 5 pick. I was lucky that RedDynasty was MIA.

    When focused he's great defensively as well. He can shut people down. He's amazing in transition. He does force a lotta shots though but I blame Scotty Brooks. If he was used like Tony Parker he would be amazing

    At 5 million he's a great deal IMO.

    Compared to when we did this last offseason, it seems like Blake Griffin has gone way down the draft board while Kevin Love obviously has shot up it. I remember I took K Love something like 13th in one of the previous drafts and I was getting **** for it. Then in another draft I think I took Blake 8th, just goes to show how perception on him has changed.

    I would take Wesbtrook over Blake. I just don't know how you can build around Blake.

    I was viewing him as an early 2nd pick I think you kind of screwed yourself.

    Maybe if you can create a Phoenix Suns 2005 type team.

    Should be interesting though. I love to see how people build their teams.

    Bynum is the best offensive center in the league and the 2nd best overall center. He's also a great defensive anchor who gives you Kevin Love level rebounding and Dwight Howard level shot blocking.

    Considering how few dominant big men there are, you really don't think he's a top-5 pick?

    He's good no doubt but top five was a little reach in my opinion he's a top fifteen no doubt he makes mental mistakes he's immature

    Bynum is arguably the best center in the league. He should be top 7 or 8 and 5 wasn't that much of a reach. All of us will see in a bit when we can't find a center. It has happened to me in almost all the drafts
