    Judging by some of your picks, you seem to be half in the bag already. :D :p

    Thats what they told me last year when I picked up Rudy Gays and Andrew Bynums before Kevin Durants and Ben Wallaces.

    The diff is I picked mine in the late rounds. Well, you got Bynum in a real nice spot but Gasol is there now.

    Yep. I emailed SamCassell about an hour ago to give him a heads up, so you, Ziggy and Rocketball start getting an idea of who you want. I'll be up for a few more hours, so try and shoot me a list of players up to your pick if you're not going to be around.

    SamCassell's Aliens are on the clock. Matador is on deck.

    PSJ can pick at any time AND pick time is cut to 6 hours for the duration of the draft. Nothing personal PSJ. Just sticking to my word.

    I pick Nick Collison. (PF/C)

    Can't access league site now. Pimp, if you could make my pick I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

    After this round, everyone will have enough players to field a starting lineup. Here are some brief thoughts about each team:

    jent -- Solid team as always, though limited upside.

    shag -- Has a ton of injury risk with Camby, Baron, Foye and K-Mart. Not liking what I see too much.

    PSJ -- 4 out of the 8 players in his starting lineup will be rookies. I just don't think that is a good idea.

    Sam -- Strong team all around. Should be a contender.

    Matador -- A lot depends on T-Mac. Barbosa was a good late pick. Not fussy on the others (Biedrins, Dalembert, Collison).

    Ziggy -- Solid draft. It's all up to Yao and his foot.

    Rook -- Excellent team. Cannot find fault with any of his picks.

    LHFan -- Super strong team. If you put a gun to my head, this is who I would pick to win the championship.

    DH -- Arenas and Ellis will spend a large portion of the early season on the bench. That, plus Kidd's durability issues and AK47's suckage issues create too much uncertainty for me to feel confident about this team.

    Buddha -- Weak overall team. Looking over his draft so far, every single one of his picks seemed like a reach.

    Pimp -- Jefferson was a surprise at 6th overall, but after that he settled down and had a good draft. There seem to be stronger teams out there, but I wouldn't bet against the former 2 time champ.

    moes -- Nice looking squad. Solid all around. Wish he wasn't in my division.

    truth -- When Turkoglu is your second best player, I don't think you have much chance of winning the championship.

    fade -- Not going to say much about my own team. My general strategy was to go with youth. Let the kids play!

    NWO -- Mediocre, I guess. His draft took a real nosedive after the first 3 rounds.

    Cat -- Cat's team is like a chocolate chip cookie with all the chips concentrated in one area. Unspectacularly solid overall with just one blast of awesomeness (James). A lot depends on if Jermaine O'Neal comes back strong.

    Mo Williams, Dalambert, and now Collison. All taking 1-2 picks before I would have. Sigh.
