All NBA DRAFTING Thread

it all comes down to the voters guys...i think we are all a bit biased saying our team is better than yours etc.

that being said, there are some very nice teams and some very crappy ones...funny part is the owners of the crappy teams are overrating their own teams so much.....that its not even funny

wekko, for all the criticism your giving other teams have you taken a look at yours?

 

eric bledsoe

 

My worst fear

 

You see my offer arjun?

 

I think "foul trouble" argument should be primarily used for players with only a few years of experience. Okafor has played 7 seasons; fouling out shouldn't be a concern for him.

Out of curiosity, why don't you think my team is strong? What weakness(es) do you see?

 

No, but sitting on the bench early with 2-3 fouls should be. One of Dwight's biggest strengths is his prodigious ability to reach the FT line and get opposing bigs in foul trouble. The same holds true to an extent for guys like Amare Stoudemire and Blake Griffin. I think it's fair to say that teams without some frontcourt depth might be at a disadvantage.

 

All that said, BleedRocketRed is probably the team to beat if he can put together a strong bench.

 

Dwight isn't officiated the same way that Shaq was. Shaq could bully his way through people. Dwight gets called for offensive fouls.

 

hey bud, sorry i missed it, just saw it right now... its a good offer but kris humphries does not really solve my length issue, I would love getting the 7th pick...would you switch humphries for emeka? or perhaps packaging them together to make it look like this?

emeka + humphries + 7th for marion + blair + 8th?? would that interest you

 

sorry can you post your team again?

 

I really can't give up Emeka because of the defensive liability Bargnani is at the 4. It seems the best I can do is Humphries + 7th for Marion and 8th but if you see another way to do it without Okafor let me know. Also let me know if you change your mind Humphries is 6' 10" not too shabby on length

 

Also, there's some length available at my pick - Ryan Anderson, Chris Anderson, Nazr Mohammed, Ben Wallace

 

Would you be interested in perhaps Humphries + 7th for Marion alone?

 

I could do that

 

i'll wait till rednation picks, if you are still interested then

 

dharocks, i sent you my picks

 

actually torque i'm sorry, i'm going to hold on to marion and only deal him for a true center, otherwise i'm ok with blair/lee combo...thanks though
