I'm not sure this logic is correct in this instance. Some will vote stricktly on name. I'm still going to build my team the "right" way though.

the problem with this, is everyone's shopping their pick, so no one is just picking right away. It's taking forever.

At the end of the day, your arguments as to why your team will beat the other team will matter some. If I have a team that's complimentary of each other, than those arguments are easier to make.

I'm pretty sure my pick will be bad but ill pick right away...nobody waste your time I'm not trading picks. ..players maybe picks no.

Would like to move up from 44, PM me.

Im trading my pick(OTC) to ImSorryMonty(Pacers?) along with my 7th and 8th rounder for his 3rd, 4th and 5th round picks

Waiting on confirmation in trade thread from Beeball Reasons then ill make the pick

With the 32nd pick in the HR Re-draft, ironically enough, the Indiana Pacers trade for JOHN WALL from the Washington Wizards!

Attachment 4794

Wall provides the court vision, athleticism, and penetration ability to utilize the talents of Kevin Love and Anthony Davis. He's truly growing into his leadership role as the Wizards are 23-19 since his return from injury this season (after starting a staggering 5-28). Wall will be able to utilize Davis in the PnR and in transition while his penetration and vision should allow for some great looks for C Kevin Love.

In his 3rd year, Wall won't have to rely on his talents so much to overcome the lack of supporting cast, his ability to get to the hoop should allow Davis and Love to really crash the boards on the offensive end.

My bad

Good job naming people that havent been picked.

@coltsguy Wall is a better distributor and more adept at getting to the line. He's also significantly longer and rebounds the ball more. I needed someone who could create his own shot and distribute, not someone who is more of a pure scorer.

^^ cmon coltsguy lol do not name players that have not been picked

More like an unspoken rule of thumb. You dont wanna tip people off about a certain player that may be flying under the radar

Length, defense, Luol Deng

****! Great pick, he should have went in the late first. I was hoping he drop to me.

I'm gonna take my time to make sure my 2nd player has the skills to play with a player the caliber of Dirk. This player will exude class and performance of all his skills. Also, I'm at the wwe hall of fame ATM. So I will be making my pick later tonight but I can promise you it will either be a center or a pg. and 2 of the guys I were scouting were recently pick but fear not, there is always a good backup plan in case and I know I have the next pick.

With the 35th pick here in the 2nd round, the Denver Nuggets select: Serge Ibaka

http://www.asmsports.com/wp-content/...AKA_Europa.jpg

Driving past the key and into the lane off a pick and roll, your power forward or small point guard may think he has an easy trip inside the paint for a thunderous dunk or momentum changing layup. He flutters the ball of hiss fingertips only to find out the terrifying flight of the 6-10, 23 year old Congo Cog, better known as Serge Ibaka! Nuggets officials were shocked that he dropped this low in the draft and just simply couldn't resist. Coming off a year where he was ranked among the elite in NBA defenders (2011-12 ALL NBA 1st Defensive Team), Serge is the reigning and defending NBA Blocks champion and holds an impressive average of 3 blocks a game this season. NBA Teams will have a tough time trying to get anything going offensively in the paint while Serge roams. When asked offensively, Ibaka won't be the one to take risky shots either as he is shooting at an impressive 57% clip from the field. Rival scouts and GM's have marveled at Ibaka's wingspan and rotations on defense.

Denver now sports two elite threats that can challenge any NBA Team in and around the perimeter. Serge will start at Center for Denver alongside PF, Dirk Nowitzki.

im counting on yall not picking the players i need to surround cp3 with.. i have a couple different ideas that should yield a decent team

1st time all star, shoots +50%, top 15 in scoring, top 5 in rebounding: Grizzlies select David Lee

Nice pick. Was hoping a big man worth **** would fall to 42. lol

And there goes another one of my targets, thanks Loco!

Both of my targets are gone.

I agree completely. I really just need people to not get in Kobe's way. lol

Still plenty of quality gems out there ence why I'm looking to trade back into round 2.

Lee is a nice player but he is an awful defender

Hard to tell with all the trades going on slowing down the pace and making thisa: who can rape the best trades instead of who can build the best team.

With the 37th pick the Orlando Magic select Kevin Garnett!

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GIWZXFdMlH...tt-celtics.jpg

Kevin is one of those guys who can anchor a defense and always seems to step it up with his competitiveness and leadership come playoff time. He can hit the midrange jumper and sets hard good screens. He's not going to just beat you with his talent, he's going to out work you too.

Zach Randolph

Give me 20 min. I was out all day. Sorry guys

With pick #39, the Rockets select PF David West

Adds a frontcourt player who can open the paint for Marc Gasol. He's having one of his most efficient seasons ever, especially defensively.

Oklahoma City Thunder select Damian Lillard

Attachment 4808

Come on lets get a three pick run right quick

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...hy_war_top.jpg

Paul Pierce

Pierce brings some more championship experience and leadership to the team. He's a team player who knows how to win, one of the most clutch in the game, and still one of the best SFs in the league. Happy to have 2 winners who can play with anybody in he and Wade

42nd pick:

Kenneth Faried "The Manimal"
