    My team seems interesting to me.</p>

    PG-Ben Gordon/Carlos ArroyoSG-JJ RedickSF-Kevin DurantPF-Tyrus ThomasC- Andrew Bynum</p>

    Lots of lineup possibilities already. Go small with an Arroyo/Gordon/Redick/Durant/Tyrus lineup. Both Gordon and Durant can switch over and play some shooting guard, and Tyrus Thomas can play some small forward, as well as center. Still need to fill out the bench, but as long as my team gets filled out good, I am going to be able to kill you guys in 2k8 with my team. </p></div>

    </p>

    Redick would get abused at SF, defenders would completely shut him down. </p> </div>

    Like Ben Gordon gets shut down playing powerforward, and Chris Duhon gets shutdown playing smallforward? </p>

    </p> too bad this isn't international basketball. arroyo's great in international basketball, but in the nba, he's so inconsistent. not a completely bad backup, tho. not that great a backup, tho.

    Carlos Arroyo is a terrible NBA player. Absolutely horrible.

    I have two picks this round and I am looking to trade one of them for a backup PG. If you are interested let me know.

    Ike was a good pick, I was considering him with my last pick but chose Maxiell because he is a better defender.

    I can make my pick in a little over 3 1/2 hours I think, so it should pick up after that.

    Well, my entire draft is ruined now. I was hoping to steal Dequan Cook with that next pick of mine.
