 empdenied - Dwyane Wade, Swen Nater, Troy Murphy, Marcus Camby, Cedric Ceballos, Hersey Hawkins, Larry Nance

this team has so much talent! (like lin xin ru, that beautiful tawainese actress). wade and nater were drop dead great picks in the first two rounds. i absolutely love wade. he's better than kobe, durant and just a half-tick less than lebron. to get him so far down in the draft tells you how valuable boards are in a 52 mil league, but not at the expense of passing up wade if he's available late. well done. nater goes without saying. the perfect usage big guy to draft with wade. round 3 (imo), to coin malone's saying, was a "brain fart". drafting troy, forced you to find a big board sf (and that's hard), so you draft camby, which was an excellent 4th rounder. very nice. 2-30% dreb men to pass the ball to hersey or wade. at this point, a clever draftsmen looks ahead and understands that wade dishes some, and camby can dish a little, so, a lot of dishes would not be needed. but a guy exactly like hersey hawkins who will score, dish just enough, shoot three's and become a second scoring option. lots of fta's too! but what do you do, u draft ceballos, your answer to a big board sf? he takes away from wade, and dosen't board enough. though he's a great player, he isn't made for this team. hawkins was the kind of player i thought you should have drafted, but taking ceballos, you lost out on players like alvin robertson or moncrief who would've fit perfectly. then, suddenly, you land nance in the 6th! wow! a great steal! which now changes the make-up of your team to the positive. bench ceballos, use nance, and you have a squad built nicely for wade to wreak f'kin havoc in this league. still don't know what to do with murphy. guess you'll have to use him off the bench, which isn't a bad at all. gives you 3-30% boardmen. good god! this is a strong playoff team now with the addition of nance and hawkins. murphy and ceballos were mistakes and could cost you later. however, this squad is very dangerous. playoffs for sure. B+

I'll take it! Let me find my team to eval. . .I mean, victimize. I actually had pulled Cedric for the bench from the get-go. I was thinking of taking a player who will probably go undrafted at SF and then found Nance. Dumb luck.

?23) lhtgk - Bill Russell, Oscar Robertson, Elton Brand, Chris Bosh, Mark Price, Carlos Defino, Kevin Love

Forgive me for the rushed eval, but it's not like I have the depth of knowledge to wax that eloquently.

- Great job solving the point guard dilemma with Price - you're thoroughly stocked on assists and have some needed 3's from him. The best part is that you're covered on the boards enough to make up for his lackluster rebounding.

- You'll totally crush on the boards, but so will a lot of teams in the league.

- I'm figuring you've stocked up on usage to run up tempo and help your middling efg. . .that and the assists should help you shoot a decent percentage.

- The biggest advantage? Free throws. You've got a lot of them.

Playoff bound, barely.

Many Hawk seasons are 100% at PG (as are Wade's).  A Wade-Ceballos-Hawkins back court rotation is scary.

If the last guy in my rotation doesn't get taken in the draft, I'll end up with a TS% of 58.

A lot of my rotation is in danger of being drafted.  I really shouldn't have drafted so platoon-mindedly!  I also forgot that platoons are cheaper in this version than before...

It's all about one word, that word is: strateegery
