<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ghoti @ Aug 7 2008, 05:47 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>As for McDyess' defense, that's not why you draft him. He can still bear down if needed and probably get a stop or two, but he only has enough left in the tank to work hard on one end. That means the coach will have to try and hide him defensively.</div> oooh well damn i screwed up -__- but well I still think it was a solid pick.
Randolph, Murphy and McDyess is a bad combination. They are all good rebounders, good shooters and Randolph is often unstoppable in the post. But they all need the ball in good position to be effective, play less than zero defense, and can't pass. Ugly.
You can still get a defensive minded center in the 7th to balance out the starting lineup. However, with Redd and Melo, you have to focus on scoring 120+ a night anyways because you won't stop anyone.

Wow, Grant hill is definitely a 6th round pick, at the most. Terrible. He's like 35. Good god, he'll be lucky if he plays 40 games next year.

That's like picking JR Smith in rounds 2-5, and expecting him to come off the bench. Oh wait
Real has asked me to skip him rather than hold up the draft because he won't be able to get on his computer.
i don't approve often, but john salmons is a GREAT pick. this guy was a stud when he started last year.
Thanks. I think he fits my team well. I picked him up in the 10th round last year, amazing what a season could do.
Any comments on my Paul Millsap pick? and hows my starting lineup? Nash manu Battier Millsap Ilgauskus
Nice pick Dino, The Paperboy FTW! lol Anyone with upcoming picks, I'd LOVE to move up from #170 for an upcoming pick, anyone willing to move down, hit me up with an offer.

Nash manu Battier Millsap Ilgauskus</div> I like this feisty team a lot, but big Z doesn't seem to fit- and he's pretty creaky, though he had a nce playoffs.
I selected BigZ coz hes the only legit 7 footer left when it was my turn to select. Whats good about my team and espicially BigZ is that they have a lot of playoff expierience. BigZ has a decent mid-range game which he could benefit from Nash. But injuries is a major set back I agree. I do think my team can go far in the playoffs, but champs? I'd have to see howd the other teams did.
Is it pass the skipping time over in the east coast? lol sorry I'm tired, but if it is I will change it.
