    If someone wants another 1st round pick, I'd be open to trades as well.

    Just to clarify, I'm probably the most annoying person to trade with. I change my mind every second, and I'm not happy until I feel I'm getting a complete steal.

    Here's an idea: pick someone I don't want.

    I'm satisfied with my AI pick. There were other players with more profile or scoring, but he's the main guy on a team with 40 wins and he barely had any help.

    BTW, I'm counting at least 2 good, young franchise guys still available...



    Oh, and Iggy was a nice pick. He's young, a leader of his franchise, a good defender, a good scorer, and a somewhat capable distributor...I mean, why not?

    I like Iggy, I was thinking about trading up for him but he went higher than I thought he would.

    looking to move up in perferably the second round, but third will do.

    Willing to part with 5th and 6th round pick. For a 10th-12th round and 2/3rd round pick. considering the position of pick.

    There were three guys I were thinking about taking with he 24th, but I chose Butler. Personally, I think he's just as good as Melo and is a more efficient player. I didn't really want to select a SF this high because it's deeper than the other positions, but Butler was too good to pass up. Plus, he's one of my favorite guys in the NBA, so it made sense.

    I believe he is the perfect #2 player, but if he is your #1 player you won't win a championship.

    I think he is very underrated, but hes not that clutch.

    I agree ^^ He is a great 2nd option.. but he isnt a franchise player.



    Edit: Same goes to last pick (Josh Smith)

    Fair enough. I disagree (obviously), but I'll save my reasoning for when the draft is finished. Let's just say that of the 5 or 6 SF's taken before Butler in this draft, the only one I would have selected over him is the guy that was taken #1 overall.
