    Butler didn't drop. Kaman would've been a better choice than Biedrins. Bogut was a very strong pick.

    Did anybody besides Real and myself watch the Wizards at all last year?

    </div>

    Who would you take Butler ahead of, that went before him?
    </div>

    I would have taken Butler over Vince Carter.

    Therefore, Butler should have gone 2nd.

    Don't see how that's relevant since CK said he went earlier than he should have. I think I took him right when he should have been selected. But anyway:

    Vince Carter
    Tracy McGrady
    Andre Iguodala

    are the only three I would have definitely selected Butler ahead of.

    I would have taken TMac from that list, other than that I agree with you.

    Tracy McGrady is nice and all but I wouldn't pick him if he wasn't BPA simply because he's we've seen teams build around him and it ain't pretty.

    Shit, we've seen McGrady paired up with a player like Yao Ming and it still ain't pretty.

    I'd just as soon either pass him up and take somebody else, or take him and use him for trade bait.

    I'd have taken him over Shawn Marion too. Maybe Monta Ellis but that's a tough call.

    Went with Okafor. Bigs are starting to dwindle and my PF-C combo is great

    He's a very good pick. Solid 13 and 10 guy who can get you two blocks a game.

    Everybody seems to think he's injury prone, but he played and started all 82 games last year.

    You need a point though.

    yeah but most of the points available right now weren't worthy of being taken over Okafor. I feel I'll be able to draft one of the same caliber in the 4th round as I would have in this round

    I agree, 20-30 is around where he should've gone.

    Although Jamison did drop a bit - he's worth a mid to late 2nd rounder, at least.
    </div>

    Nah. I think both of them went where they should have.

    I think McGrady is a lot better than Butler. Just sayin'.
