I didn’t know Darius Miles was an nba player.

Wow how young are you? He was a big deal (even if a flameout) in the early to mid 00s.

ugh...i took plumlee way too early

portis threw my whole strategy off and i didnt plan well enough for my 6th rounder after taking lavine in the 5th...plumlee was a 7/8 target but i panicked after okafor got picked...completely forgot about a soon to be drafted guy who id rather have

For the first time in his life, Jethroe is happy he is deaf. So he can’t hear the BOOOOOOOOOOOOOS

Had high hopes for Darius. Clippers team just couldn't get it together

After taking Jrue in round two, my original half-baked "plan" was to take Lavine for the 3rd Savage in a row in round 5. I just loved the idea of having Jrue cover him and the inside-outside with Shaq. But then I took Christian Wood and was like, nah, I don't need that. I still think it would have worked well.

also, just when Rob was about ready to throw money down on him, jethro said, "Hold my beer!"

My board is getting mowed through!

I deeply regret drafting MIkal Bridges. He just doesn't make sense given my light rebounding (on teams where I can't put Wood at SG) AND light assists. I'll make him work, but it's still aggravating using a 6th round pick on him.

I was heavily considering D-Will as a backup to Jrue / starter for that one borderline-elite season. Really wish I had gone that route instead.

(I was also considering 10 other alternatives)

Sorry again for the delay guys.

The longer this draft goes the more I regret taking Simmons instead of Oscar. Oscar has his flaws but to fill 3500+ minutes, all five years, with plenty of assists and defense plus pretty good rebounding should have been the move. It would make things much less stressful.

I know 4 of 7 picks is a lot for my backcourt this early, but I have some pretty sweet lineups planned with Luka, Shai, Donovan, and Beal.

Robertson seemed like a steal although I preferred Fat lever. English was probably a reach but I needed to just go ahead and make sure I got my Giannis backup.

deron always stands out to me in the 6th/7th rounds...07-08 is such a great season and 09-10 can be a starting season as well

probably not worth taking in the 4th/early 5th but hes always a 6th round target for me whenever i need a pg

well maybe not so soon to be drafted!...dale davis was the guy i wanted

LOVING this draft now...mobley was my 8th round target since i picked billups over parish/lucas...thrilled to get him
