    Looking good so far, just have to fade two more teams and then we can take Simien.

    So do you feel your needs at PG or PF with a Simien or a Jack or do you maybe go with the best player available like a SG Garcia?

    I love Simien, but his injury-filled past does concern me. However, I do think he's what we might be looking for as far as someone who can contribute immediately. I do like his low-post/ high elbow offensive versatility. I can't recall how good of a rebounder he is for his size, but I assume he was solid.

    We'll see what happens!

    Sure. I would love to see him in the Erwin Center next season.

    I was hoping for Jack. Now I hope we take the Latin Assassin if the Queens dont take him.

    There's arguemnts for each of those, but if it was up to me I would take Simien. PF is the one position we need a major upgrade at and although he won't contribute immediately, we can develop into a consistent player for us.
