Damn, my shortlist is absolutely depleted!

Was hoping (perhaps optimistically) that one of Kidd, Nash, Rose or CP3 would slip to me...

Considering playing Duncan as a centre as there are a ton of good PF's out there.

Grant Hill - 20ppg 10rpg 7apg back in the late 90s

Good pick, was interested in seeing how at he'd slide. Still a few around I would've taken ahead of hill though.
I've only got one ahead of him, and suprised Jayman didn't take him tbh!

I had one definitely ahead of him and a few that would've come into serious consideration.

Hill may not be the best player left but he was definitely the best SF. Was a beast in his prime during the mid to late 90s.

He is a multiple time member of the All-NBA First team and carried that weak Pistons team for years with his 20+ points, 10+ rebounds and count on him for 7+ assists too!

I select Paul Peirce. 05-06 season.

Nearly 27 PPG, 4.7 APG & 6.7 RPG.

brilliant pick young blood, could have an all time great had he not been destroyed by injury

Windigo · January 28, 2013, 11:25:33 AM

Hill was injured during his prime as well and never fully recovered sadly. :(

RiOtChEsS · January 28, 2013, 12:27:17 PM

Just a reminder to keep the pm's to the next coach going ;)

thanks Drew. Seeing as this is "in their prime" not who has had the best career, I thought Hill in his few injury free years was worthy of a top 10 pick in this draft.

There are atill a few competing for this spot but I am not going to over think it, very happy to rejoin the Lakers team mates and happy with the decision ;D

Dwight Howard

Windigo · January 28, 2013, 01:50:35 PM

Haha. Kobe & Dwight don't like each I don't think. :P

My Chumps · January 28, 2013, 10:40:45 PM

Wouldn't have minded Dwight :(

Was tossing up between a few but the chemistry between this guy and Duncan pretty much got it over the line. Hopefully judges take that into account!

Tony Parker

Pick any of his seasons. 20PPG, 7 Assists, 3 Reb, one steal, 500% FG... Crazy man, crazy. Perhaps some of my Spurs bias coming through here, but I think he's a top pick.

tbagrocks · January 28, 2013, 10:43:56 PM

Nice pick 8)

hopefully we get a few done and you get to pick again tonight MC

RiOtChEsS · January 28, 2013, 10:50:00 PM

Carmelo Anthony
&
Pau Gasol...

Back to u Chumpsy ;)

Holz · January 28, 2013, 10:54:02 PM

Wow melo and lebron in the same team that's some scary offensive power. Not sure about team chemistry melo might become a sooky baby being number 2.

Loving the spur combo mc I'm happy I got my mav combo at least with real pairings we know they work

My Chumps · January 28, 2013, 10:58:31 PM

Dammit, Carmelo the other one I wanted :P

Great pick with Pau there Marcz... Just couldn't seeing as I already had Duncan.

Alright, I may need a little bit of time for this pick. Hold up.
