DeAndre Jordan is a guy I would've saved for the last two rounds. I would not have burnt precious payroll on him now...

It's late 8th round, so not too far off from the last 2 rounds.

Don't think I'd use $9 million on him though.

What is the difference between late 8th a s 9 or 10 lmao

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Another guy who would be amazing in today's NBA.

AK-47 as well. One of the best defenders I’ve ever seen.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Are you folks almost done?

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Are you folks almost done?

Yup.

Middle of the 8th RD I think.

Well guess what round it is, 3 picks after mine? LMAO.

Ehh it's slim pickings now, factoring in the other players I want to round out the roster. Part of the draft is not only spending wisely, but planning out how you're going to round out the rest of your roster. He at least serves a purpose on my roster, when I'll probably be starting Portis and using DJ as a backup.

Revised list of teams I hate the most in this draft:

1) All of @HurricaneDij39 's teams.
2) The Cleveland Cavs. Always.
3) Whoever drafted DeAndre Jordan.

This.

Did 5-6 drafts with Shane, Nos, Ritz and the gang and you have to game plan it. Sounds easier (when you're just starting to think about doing 1 or just starting with the big name guys in the first few rounds) than it actually is.

 

[DJ Fieri]

If there's salary no cap.....it's a lot easier.....LOL.

 

[DJ Fieri]

We gotta think about how we want to determine the playoffs.

1. We could either grab a handful of people who did not participate in this draft to rank their 1-8 EC & WC teams

OR

2. Every team that drafted will submit rankings. They cannot rank their own teams.

I vote for 1. I was bummed when I couldn't participate and after having been in the VI.....we were busy. I wouldn't have had time for the research. And we didn't take the laptop, I hate doing research shit on my cell.

 

[DJ Fieri]

At the end I would like to see a secondary voting with @HurricaneDij39 and @WiggyRuss deciding the playoff brackets and who would win.

LOL.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I really want to see how these teams stack up.

And if given the honor to vote.....I will be fair. No Lakers homerism here.






























No seriously, folks.....I will vote fairly.

Both the Thunder and Magic are for sale. Interesting trades will be considered.

I’ll give you future picks…

just got home--- Spurs select Xavier Tillman

Nothing personal, it just seemed like you sold yourself out for more rim protection at a time when there's still quality young talent available.

And yes, Wiggy - Whiteside was another terrible pick.

 

[HurricaneDij39]

It's going to be close to a 50/50 split in terms of minutes, but Naz Reid is going to start for me over Derrick Favors due to his three-point shot...

Both players will push one another in practice. As president of the Nuggets, I've spoken with Naz and he is extremely thankful that the veteran Favors has his back at all costs.
