DDL Western Conference Draft #1 Topic

yeah, as I said somewhere before I expect some guys that go maybe 2nd round in a regular draft league.. to maybe go undrafted. I can think of 2 guys right now that fit that mold at least.

The damn east is KILLING me, sort with the following: min 2000; def 90; usage 22.1.....there are three guys over 60% efg, one of them was drafted #7, one of them #9 and my pick:

 Kevin McHale

WTF  East? How the heck did you let ash draft this guy??? Hate to look like follow the leader but I've been sitting here wating to take him long before ash took him too, and I KNOW the two people behind me will NOT let him make it back next round.

Sending sm now

I can't tell you how much time I've spent (hours) and how many times I've gone back and forth (100).

I figured you were deciding between tier 2 shooter/tier 4 post  tier 2 post/tier 4 shooter.. or something along those lines

I actually seriously considered the following (until Marques & McHale were taken of course):

LeBron
Marques
Marion
McHale
Mutombo

I could have alternated Marion/Marques at the 2 as both have a season at 98% there.  Light on overall rbd%, but with the points being scored at such a high efg%, I figured who cares about the boards.  Oh well. 

Reggie at 24 pts/gm at 57 efg% and Buck to help clean the glass (not to mention his 58 efg%) and I'm happy overall.

Gee must be nice having a top 5 pick.  That DOES change things a bit.  Since McHale is a PF, he can only really be a great fit when surrounded with unusually high rebounding SF (Chuck and Worm being the most obvious).  Most of us would end up with like 85% rebounding by taking McHale and that's not gonna cut it here.  Plus he does not offer assists.  Great pick for both of you but not a guy that every team can take.

and the east let ash add him to a rodman/gilmore front line

Yea, good call bagja, it's strange how certain players become perfect fits for some teams and would be a complete waste for others, but as was stated from here on out it's about drafting for team need and balance.

i'll tell ya, logain, this has been a lot of fun so far. best draft league i've been in for quite some time. the concept is excellent, as has been your management.  however, you haven't lived yet until your lao po (wife) drugs you. haha.
8/13/2012 11:40 AM
All of McHale's seasons are 97 or 98% at SF. You can play him there. Or.. Chuck went at the turn in both drafts if you wanted that uber rebounding 3 to play with Kevin

I will discuss this with her. It would be a minor miracle to get her to cook anything to start with.. so we will start there

and i don't know about the east yet, haven't been paying attention, but there's some front lines on this side of the mississippi that scare me a lot more than gilmore, rodman and mchale. haha

To back up felonius, this draft has been very well run.  Prolly the best I've seen, Logain so nice job there and thx.

My own draft in the east was pretty bad so far - 2 picks I thought would drop didn't.

Ash is just doing what I thought he would if given a top 5 pick!!
