The guy above me just picked Darko... Woops! Why don't you choke on your double standard instead? And he's an excellent defender (suffocates the hell out of people in the post and perimeter), and compliments my fast paced team well. : ] I love this guy's attitude, I'd rather have him over someone like Truck Robinson. Do some research on that.
This is why I don't care for extending the draft. It doesn't affect me too much. I have a list of terrific players I'd like to take. But 12 rounds is enough. People pick Darko because the other 11 players are redonkulously good. Let's analyze instead!
Dude, you have 10-11 players from the modern era of basketball... Don't be a hypocrite. If this hadn't been an All-Time draft, I would never be able to assemble such a talented team of athletic freaks. The distraction of buying into 29 PPG in the 60's has made certain players like Dwight Howard fall to me. You've killed the purpose of the PG position, I merely value my guys over some of those older slugs.
My reasoning is quite simple, I drafted legendary big guys, an MVPesque PG better than Nash that ran everything, then undervalued modern stars that played in a normal paced era who would probably slip since they aren't necessarily at premium positions. As ghoti stated, by now the players I pick are meaningless really. I could pick Smush Parker and it wouldn't matter because he's not going to get any minutes. To mix things up I went for some very vicious and versatile defensive players (perimeter and post) in the 11th/12th who wouldn't disrupt my chemistry and fit into their specific role well.
see this is why google had google goggles for their email system.. so you don't get drunk and type something like this
just and FYI, if we ever do another all era draft... just leave Reggie alone.. I always pick him with the last pick
I don't think we are. Ghoti brough up a good point, that people were drafting for 12 so that impacted their decision like you said. We go 12.
