I felt Malone at #9 was maybe the last remaining in the very very top tier. Would've preferred to draft a centre to anchor my team, but there was no way either Dream or Shaq were slipping to the ninth pick. Still a ridiculous amount of talent avaliable, though.

I love these NBA drafts, must remember to join it next time.

Hadn't figured you for a quitter.

Some good picks thus far, though in all fairness at this stage that isn't so hard

.
Will be interesting to see how the picks go deep into the second round.

I could use a co-manager if you want to get involved?

Gerry Attrick has to make the next pick per the draft order, but I guess as two hours have elapsed since the last pick, Po the Panda can go ahead and make his pick if he wants to.

NICHOLLS · « **Reply #94 on:** August 18, 2014, 06:24:43 pm »

Daym - two fine picks.

KG is in my personal dream team

Doc Red · « **Reply #95 on:** August 18, 2014, 06:33:05 pm »

Dammit, Po. That's my all time favourite player.
I thought long and hard over picking him 4th.

Saint Kopite · « **Reply #96 on:** August 18, 2014, 06:36:32 pm »

Isiah is a boss pick.

Mailman was unstoppable on the transition, but I for one would have picked him above him and even KG.

...maybe, but the PG pool has a lot more quality in depth.

We're talking about Zeke here. Nobody skips over Zeke.

IndianRed · « **Reply #99 on:** August 18, 2014, 07:56:03 pm »

Been really quality picks all around. After the fairly obvious first 4-5 names, it comes down to personal preference as to which superstar you want to build your team around.

Been over an hour since Nicholls picked.

Great pick by El_Capitán in choosing Ewing, he was one who I really wanted but I knew he would be chosen in the first round

IndianRed · « **Reply #104 on:** August 18, 2014, 10:06:08 pm »

Does the draft order reverse after the first round? Just saw that Samie picked Barkley and Nowitzki.

Wanted Dirk.

Ohh well.

How are you planning to use Dirk and Chuck, Samie?

Who plays in 4?

Samie · « **Reply #109 on:** August 18, 2014, 10:50:09 pm »

Bleecher report and wiki tell me Dirk is able to play at Center and being 7ft tall i doubt there are many taller than him.

Saint Kopite · « **Reply #110 on:** August 18, 2014, 10:53:24 pm »

Jeez no, Samie, no.

Dirk will get annihilated if you play him at 5.

Have Dirk at 4 and Chuck at 3.

Samie · « **Reply #111 on:** August 18, 2014, 10:53:50 pm »

Bleacher Report?

Even Nicky English is more reliable than them.

NICHOLLS · « **Reply #113 on:** August 18, 2014, 11:02:43 pm »

Yes, strange double pick as Barkley's completeness at PF was what made him special and gave him the edge in one-on-one's. Dirk's one of the best shooters, so Barkley will play SF probably...?

jerseyhoya · « **Reply #117 on:** August 18, 2014, 11:48:39 pm »

Dirk can play the five today for stretches, but it's hard to imagine him doing well against Ewing or Shaq in their primes. Not that they could defend him either, but you could put them on Chuck maybe.

jerseyhoya · « **Reply #118 on:** August 19, 2014, 12:14:06 am »

I should add that if I was drafting a team and had Barkley and Nowitzki in my first two picks, I'd probably make them my power forward and center, then pick a defensive minded center in the last round as my 6th man. In the hypothetical games against teams with powerful low post offensive players the 6th man center could get more run, but in most matchups you play small and try and kill the other team with shooting and speed. There aren't that many players from the past few decades whom Dirk couldn't at least put up a fight against.

Samie · « **Reply #119 on:** August 19, 2014, 12:17:13 am »

Thanks man.

Seeing as I;m the last to pick it makes it slightly more difficult as players i have in mind would be gone by the time it comes back to me.
