    Yeah, he is. Not many, but based on last season's performance and how some of these teams are constructed, i'd take nelson and his 40% 3 pt shooting over felton, holiday, wall, collison, and thornton.

    To run an effective offense, you need spacing. Spacing comes from reliable shooting. Andre Miller only took 37 3pt attempts last season and made 4 of them. 11%.

    Jameer isn't good at really running an offense and creating for others.

    He is a great shooter and can get to the bucket though. You can't expect him to fully run the team

    This argument would hold more substance if a) Miller were a catch-and-shoot player and b) his teams consistently struggled offensively, but he generally plays the role of primary ballhandler, and the Blazers have been just fine offensively since he came to Portland.

    But I'm not even arguing Nelson vs. Miller, just challenging your assertion that Nelson was the last starting-caliber PG left on the board.

    The way I see it, there are only 3 starting caliber pgs left. Jnelson is definitely one of them. He seems to be much undervalued here

    Dwight Howard and the Magic offense would make pretty much any PG look good

    As always, will entertain offers for the next 10 minutes for my pick. Include players if you want, but I'm not looking to gain picks here.

    I'm afraid my lowest pick is a decent enough 7th rounder, I already have 3 6th rounders.

    Okay. Are you sure you have extra picks though? It says Spooner has your 7th rounder and ICanDunkOnYao has your 8th. Do you have someone's 7th?
