With my next pick I will take... Brandon Jennings

How did he not go already? Averaging 18pts 7apg and 3rbg. Last year he averaged 19 points, also good for a couple of steals a game.

Will have my pick up in an hour or so. No idea who I'm taking yet

Jay · March 30, 2013, 01:57:58 PM

Thought Jennings was taken ages ago :o

How I got him with my 6th rounder is :o :o :o

Taking Andre Drummond. Couldn't afford to let someone else take him.

Another mega elite big on defense, Drummond's rookie year has seen him put up 7.3 points , 7.5 rebounds and 1.7 blocks/game in just 19 minutes. Shooting an elite 59% from the field and 50% on three's (1-2 on three's at the end of the shot clock ;) ).

His numbers have seen him put up a 22.3 PER, the 14th highest of all time amongst rookies (amongst players who played the minimum number of games) and easily the highest amongst this years rooks on just 16% USG. His 0.177 wins added/48 minutes also the highest amongst rookies this season. Insane 114 ORtg and 99 DRtg also.

Lol Lawrence Frank only playing him 19 minutes/game.

He gets like 5 mins for my Detroit team in 2k13. Rashard Lewis is getting more game time than him. :P

I asked for a PF since I'm a SF and Prince got moved to PF. Were getting smashed on the boards with only Monroe doing anything. But now got a great young PF with a trade in Houston. Should go in this draft I reckon.....

Get him more minutes immediately, one of my favourite players in the league. Started an association with the hornets a few months back, first thing I did was trade for Drummond. Drummond + Brow both 90+ ratings, only paying each of them $8M a season. Got Chris Paul running the point, Wiggins starting SF and Mayo as 6th man. Won the west last season but lost to the heat in 6. Finished top of the West and about to start playoffs in 4th season.

Where is Windi? :o

Windigo · April 01, 2013, 10:17:23 AM

Yeah, internet had a meltdown on Friday, haven;t been able to get on until now. So I'm pretty happy to see some Dt scores. :P

Well I pick Kemba Walker. This man is the future for Charlotte.

Koop's pick

Windigo · April 04, 2013, 07:56:26 PM

So your counting on Faried to play both C & PF by himself then? Seems legit. :P

KoopKicka · April 04, 2013, 08:02:18 PM

ahh sorry, I had no idea, lemme do a bit of research, but, which possie do you think is the first you need to draft on the bench?

Brandon Jennings to SF, tiny durrant to PF for the 80 games out of 82 than Bynum is injured and Faired to C

Just get the best player left...Although I will say the PG position is pretty rich for talent. I'd maybe get a big man...But your call...

KD is 6ft9 so he isn't too tiny and could play PF.

You guys don't know Bynum's situation right now and for all you know he could play 82 games next season! He would have the best doctors working on him and you're kidding yourself if you say his career is over. Just an easy target because of all his injuries, just completely ignore the fact he is an absolute beast.

At least you can't pay me out about John Wall anymore... You all spazzed at me for saying he will be better than Irving. Meanwhile he has come back and turned the Wizards into a playoff looking team - they would have 8th seed right now if Wall was fit from day 1. #betterthanirving #bynumoverdwight #comeatme
