    Yup, and I take those criticizations and then I pick a player who may be able to somewhat cover up those deficiencies.

    Actually you just critcized your two best players and then picked a player who will be able to juice his stats because of them.

    My team is dominant, mainly because unlike last year I stayed away from drafting Sh___n W_l__a_s in the 2nd round :(

    I thought he got kicked out of the league because Larry Bird hates him

    Kurt Thomas is a good selection for a big man. I had him around number 5 on my best available list.

    Yeah hes been one of my favorite role players in the league for several years. Barely got recognition until a year or two ago in the playoffs but hes as good of a post defender as there is in the league, very good rebounder considering the playing time he gets, blocks shots every now and then and has a nice mid-range jumper.

    I'd like to thank KC who just pointed out that YiNets took the same player in both drafts, but used an 11th round pick in one, and a 6th round pick in the other.

    Hey guys, I'm starting school tomorrow all the way until January. So there will be times of the day where I can't update or anything, but once I'm out of class or between classes I will do my best to keep everything up to date for you guys. This by no means that this draft will slow...I won't let it :D

    Unless of course more of you draft the 1st and 2nd rounders :D

    I went ahead and updated my own roster if you don't mind. Global mod action FTW.

    Just did JRay's as well, per his request.

    Now that my team's starting 5 is complete, where do I pick up the crown for this?

    Bogut/Bosh/Battier/Salmons/Louis Williams
    6th man:Marvin Williams

    Game over fellas, shut down perimeter D, with great EFFICIENT offense being run through my post players.

    My team so far

    C & PF (interchangeable depending upon matchup): Nene and Frye
    SF: Bowen
    SG: Kevin Martin
    PG: Brandon Roy

    Bench: Earl Watson

    Getting skipped while I was driving hurt me a little bit with my top 3 SF choices all getting selected but the players fit together well so far. The backcourt will dominate the scoring while Nene and Frye can keep the floor spaced with Frye as a high post mid-range shooter and Nene playing in the low post. Bowen is a dangerous enough shooter that he has to be respected when parked at the 3 point line.

    On defense, Bowen will take the toughest perimeter assignment and Nene the toughest interior assignment.

    I added Watson as my first reserve because he can defend and play in the backcourt with either Martin or Roy.

    I think we have enough Mods in this draft that we can all help out with PM'ing and updating 'the big draft board' if you're not around.

    I think we all want this draft to make it to the end :cool:
