    There are what, 5 or 6 franchise players in the NBA?

    JCB and I have picks coming very soon, my guess is we end up with better teams than you guys.

    I guess we will see.

    Then you wont be able to pick for about 50 picks, and I'll have 2 close picks in about 25 more picks.

    There are guys still available better than Smith and Butler though.

    Iggy is a decent second banana and a championship level third wheel, so all you have to do now is find two franchise type superstars in the later rounds to play with him and you are all set!

    I have at least 5 players in mind that I would have picked before Butler. (probably around 10 if I had time to research)

    Butler is fine player, not franchise but as close as you can get short of becoming one.

    I don't what you guys are talking about.

    Damn.

    When they're picked, I'd like to know who they are.

    I don't think you guys know how good a player Butler is. This just proves the point that he's one of the most under-rated players in the league.

    I agree like I said I'm a fan of his, but some players still available are better.

    I had Butler pretty high on my list. He was a true All-Star last year and he still seems to be improving. He proved a lot to me last season.

    When it's somebody's turn, is it permitable for them to say something like 'i'm thinking about taking this player' (before officially making the pick) to garner interest in the pick? - if that's a player somebody else really wanted then they could explore trade opportunities.
