Some pretty bad drafting so far for a lot of teams.

Disclaimer: Since my family is back in town, I will be winning this league. Just want to make a statement as to who runs this place.

yawn....i already got an odl chip with lebron/brandon..you dont run sh!t

Well ****, I can still see what the crazed stalker posts when quoted.

You know, it is actually really disturbing how obsessed 98 is with me.  I haven't played in a league with it in a couple of years, block it from sitemailing after it threatened me, block it from seeing its posts on here, and yet the instant I rejoin a league with it, it begins talking about me again.  What a sad sack of ****.

I know I'm not the only person said sack of **** has had issues with.  It blows my mind that you guys allow it in your leagues still.  How many other owners have avoided this particular (and other draft leagues as well) because of a psychotic, stalking freak?

some confusion here about wilt i think...

hardened said..."Since I got WIlt I feel like a kid in a candy store...so many options, but I think I have settled on one"

which i thought meant that he has so many options for teammates when using 66-67 wilt...and he has settled one(being bobby jones)

or did you mean what copernicus thought when he said..."There is only really one or two options for Wilt else you should have taken Artis or Deandre on one end of his career or any number of high use low efg undrafted at the other end and saved money and opportunity"

if so, i would agree with copernicus...if you use a 70s wilt, thats about the same as deandre/atris...an early 60s wilt is about the same as certain undrafted, high ugh, around 50%efg guys

i think that message got a little misunderstood when bds posted  "I don't think Artis plays PF. As for DeAndre, I love him, but I don't see why any rebounder wouldn't work next to Wilt. Wilt's carrying a lot of the rebound load already."

copernicus wasnt talking about actually pairing those specific players with wilt

yes

This is going to be a very interesting season. Probably very imbalanced, with a few teams very clearly at the top.

I'm not worried. I have until the last three picks of the draft to get the rest of my team...lol.

BTW Copernicus the point is you can build around both Wilts in some fun ways. So far I like my choices.

both wilts?

66-67 and 67-68?

or maybe 61-62 for fun?

The reference is to a passing lower usage Wilt or a scoring higher usage Wilt.

Are we having evals this season?

Too many of my "4th round watch list" guys were just taken. Please, avoid depleting the list further.

let me see your list and I will let you know what I can do

Trust me, no one wants the list. It will guide you to a playoff berth and first round exit.

Hey dh, will you be doing evals at all?

you guys have been spoiled lately with ben...no one really does evals for every round like he did...or they try it and dont finish

i usually like to do evals at the end of the draft when i can see all the picks and have a better understanding of each team

gotcha

I'm curious to hear from Sly and others why my team is going to be in trouble. The plan is to bring 02-03 T-Mac off the bench and use the 13-14 AD season at the SF spot.

Ibaka will start at the 4 and 00-01 Mutombo at the 5. Both really good defenders with low usg%

Harden will start in front of T-Mac and then give me some flexabiltiy to play either PG or SF depending on who is available.

You must have something up your sleeve for the rest of the draft... But I don't like spending 8.5mil and a high 3rd rd pick on a sub and I don't like that you traded all those picks to Copernicus to move up to get Ibaka. To play PF? He should be playing SF, but he can't because you have Davis there.

And how is Harden going to play SF? Don't you have Davis playing there with McGrady backing him up?

The way that my team is currently constructed, Tmac is playing all of his minutes at backup SG.

Serious question, do "backup" minutes and points count less than the starters? It seems to me, that drafting your backups early you can give your team an "indentity" while helping owners better manage the USG on the court.
