Funny story: so I knew that I wanted to pair Nash with Ginobili. While I'm "searching" the selection page to see if he was taken, Firefox points me to the only place where his name is mentioned...in dino33's sig. Turns out pairing those two....well, great minds think alike.

To be honest I care more about "reaching" for players I like, rather than thinking things through logically. I do that a lot it seems in these drafting situations. Damn though Jigga, I wish my pick was a few slots higher I would have stolen Nash.
I came into this draft with a realistic starting 5 I could get in mind, so far I'm 2 for 2 Gameover fellas
No way! Vince Carter @ #51? That HAS to be a steal this late, I would say about 49 picks too late! lol

Just for fun
Granted Kaman didnt help, but he was a young center who could rebound, play D, and score when asked to.

You look at Kidd and Duncan and think you've got two hall of famers, and so it looks good on paper. However, you've got one player who thrives in the transition game, and one who is built for the half-court. I'd consider you drafting BPA and trade Kidd. Maybe you can pick up a more suited point guard while upgrading a pick?
