How bad did I screw the pooch? NBA Draft...
Ugh. 12 team league, I had the 10th pick. Is my team terrible?
Edit: It's also a one-center league. 1: Elton Brand 2: Jermaine O'Neal 3: Ginobili 4: Ben Gordon 5: Quentin Richardson (note: 3PTM and 3PT% both count in this league) 6: B. Simmons 7: M. Camby (ugh) 8: Drew Gooden 9: Seabass Telfair 10: Lorenzen Wright 11: Jim Jackson 12: McDyess 13: Bynum (this was a joke pick) |

Ben Gordon at 4 is a terrible, terrible pick. Camby at 7 is actually great if you can get 70 games out of him.

Someone took the guy I wanted right out from under me. Blah. What about the first two rounds... passable given that all the real blue chippers were gone? |

Brand is picked about right. O'Neal is an injury risk and for a forward has terrible FG%. I think you reached there.

Telfair at #9 is a gamble, but he could pay off. Supposedly, he worked a ton on his shooting, and if he doesn't turn the ball over much, he could be valuable.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I always like to draft at least one guy like that... who could be a total bust but has a lot of upside. Plus he might be the only interesting thing about the Blazers this year, unless Pryzbilla decides to show off his new boxing skills on the court. |

Rich at #5 is terrible, he's not going to put up near the same numbers as he did in Phoenix, I believe he is Jamal Crawford's backup. Camby has plantar fasciatis or whatever which is a serious injury, plus he's known as Mr. Glass. You said Bynum was a joke pick so I won't comment there. The other draft picks are all pretty good though, just look to waiver wire to pickup another center b/c Camby and Bynum will get you nothing. You need another PG too, Telfair is pretty inconsistent at this point in his career. |

Who else was available at that spot, just wondering. J. O'Neal is definately a stretch with your early 2nd round pick. I would have gone with something to contrast Brand, such as an Arenas or Nash, if they were available. If you wanted a big man, Brad Miller would have been a better choice IMO. |
