    Wow, you guys found a way to overrate big men. Good job.

    There's a lot of really good guards available now in the third round.

    12 of the last 16 picks have been used on big men. I'm just disappointed I don't get an early third round pick so all the great guards will be gone I'm afraid.

    In cost, they do. Not in value. Some people are paying the premium and picking early to do it.

    I'm not complaining, though. I'll probably get a great player in the 3rd round.

    Ubigman, whenever you sign on, let me know if that 2nd pick is up for grabs. I'll pick swap with you in this round and next round for it. My 7th this round and 10th next for your 1st in the 3rd round and 16th in the 4th.

    My guess is that Tim Duncan is the pick, then. That would be a monster frontcourt.

    Not trying to single you out, but I wish people wouldn't post potential players that haven't been picked. It's like helping your opponent beat you. Saw someone on another page posting centers they considered.

    Not trying to help him out--just making guesses for the fun of it.

    But that's fine, David Stern. I'll pretend like those guys don't exist.

    No need to get sarcastic, I wasn't trying to single you out. If you don't see a problem with reminding people of players left on the board, that's fine.

    He technically has til 1. This is the 2nd time in a row we have had to wait for him though. Give it til 12:30.

    If he gets skipped, are you open to trading your pick Jeff?

    Looks like Jeff will have back to back picks instead of bigman. He signed off at 9 last night when he was five picks away from his selection.
