Im still trying to figure out your 'copernicus glitch'
?

and yea, DONT try to control me -

You know how Copernicus is always like “he’s not your Vydas, he’s not my Vydas, he’s Arvydas Sabonis?”

I was just riffing on that

ummm... maybe if I heard the beat...

if that line is from some LITHUANIAN rap group...then Im kinda lost...
sorry...

Im more of a "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream" kinda guy...

No beat to it, sound it out - Not your Vydas, not my Vydas, he's Our Vydas (Arvydas).

Bill Walton said this while calling a game in the 90s.

Officially the point in the draft where I am going to have to start reaching.

The thing about Walton calling in the 90s that will forever be stuck in my head, "Where is Karl Malone?!?" Bill simply couldn't comprehend how a great defense like the Bulls was giving him problems. "You've got to attack, big-man! Attack!"

Whiteside / Millsap / Bobby Jones / Scottie / Terrell Brandon, with T-Mac and Larry Smith off the bench doesn't seem bad to me. I've got to get a couple more good rotation guys, but I think I could improve on 23rd-place.

Offense is gonna be a real struggle. T-Mac and Brandon turn into efficiency anchors when you get past their top 1-2 seasons. The defense will be great though, maybe enough to make up for offensive struggles.

Ah. I got there three rounds ago, for better or worse.

Except for T-Mac's 02-03 possibly starting, I think he's going to be a small-minute backup to Scottie, so 10-12MPG in most leagues. I've noticed a good amount of guys like him in shoot slightly better when given a fraction of the minutes. Also the reason why I have plenty of decent passers, hoping the combo of high combined-Ast% and T-Mac's low minutes will be a small boost. And, T-Mac/Terrell was why I was willing to pick up a bad defender/excellent OReb guy in Smith.

I don't think I'll have a top-tier offense, but I think I can make it decent enough to get by. We've still got plenty of draft to go, will be interesting to see how teams shape up.

I wasn’t really feeling the T-Mac pick on face value alone, but now that you mention it, he is a pretty legit Pippen backup. That one Toronto season is CRAZY btw, on a per-minute basis.

Alright, I finally figured out who I’m picking so no one pick him/her before then (don’t want to give away any clues as to who it is)

but also, like, pick soon please

? if gender figures into your clue... Rodman flew off the board several rounds ago...

Sue Bird is my favorite, but Taurasi or Stewart would be better fits at this point.

Please don’t mention undrafted players

Sundays are obviously a slow day for this draft. Nine picks all day. ZERO picks from 5:55 on. I can't complain though because I contributed to the slow day. But, I didn't hold up things for 4-6+ hours though

NotoriousJ, Midge, and myself all proxied to robusk to make up for it. 3 picks in 1 second.

David Robinson/Bill Walton/Dirk Nowitzki is a pretty sick frontcourt for this game, but imagine that rotation in real life.

Penny Hardaway/Deron Williams
Kawhi Leonard
Chris Andersen
Bill Walton/Dirk Nowitzki
David Robinson

Pretty happy so far

Gervin going messes up what I thought was my plan. I saw him as perfect backup minutes for MJ.
