terribleswedes 406 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Dear all, as I was lax and feel all guilty about it and @young_styler stepped up in my absence, it only makes sense that he take my place fully going forward in this particular draft. I hope my one-time slip-up won't discount me from the chance to do this in the future! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

slmroz 79 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Planned some perimeter players since 3rd round but Ayton was too hard to pass. I see no reason for him to produce worse than he was in his rookie season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turner46 873 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) My pick is in and it is Luka Doncic, on phone but will be at a PC very soon to format. So @Gile Pileyou are now on the clock. I chose the reigning rookie of the year hoping for a even better season in year 2. If he can improve his FT .710 ish off the top of my head to .765 ish he shot in real madrid then jackpot!!! Luka had 3 positions at yahoo last year so that is another reason as it allows me to be flexible with not only the rest of my draft but if it were a real league easier to stream or add free agents when you have players eligible at multiple positions. I also can do my version of a death lineup with Jrue at SG, Luka at SF and PG13 at PF or to compensate for my lack of rebounds and blocks I could trot out a backcourt of Jrue at PG, PG13 at SG and Luka at G.

I see no reason for him to produce worse than he was in his rookie season. Looks as if we’re the opposite sides of the coin. I would have picked Ayton but I ran it through BBM. Even if I picked Ayton and another big FG producer next round it wouldn’t be good enough to make up my FG so I have no choice but to punt FG. Once you’re punting FG Ayton drops outside the top 50. Mitchell was 17th in totals assuming punt FG/To so I’m continuing in that direction. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gile Pile 1,206 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Just could not believe that Pascal, who will be top 25 player next season, was available. Easiest decision ever. Now if he can only improve his FG% to 60%.... I am not saying he will (except in bold predictions thread, so this cannot be used against me - see Siakam's thread). PS Don't be surprised if Stifle "disappears" from this forum next year 😀 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Mack 159 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 went with tobias at 35. might not have finished the season strong as he only ranked top 75 in the last 20 plus games but still finished last season top 35. but with the departure of a couple starters, i think he can go replicate his clippers version from last season. also, he has been durable playing 82, 80, 82 and 76 the last 4 seasons. a big factor with my pick here since i already have kawhi. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gile Pile 1,206 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Keep with NBA champs theme, Lowry in 4th is solid option imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turner46 873 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I probably should have drafted a big man but opted for Bledsoe here, another dual eligible position player to go along with my first 3 drafted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slmroz 79 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I was so close to taking another big but... Derozan doesn't play below some solid level... Not a spectacular pick ... just quite safe. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongs 1,316 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I'm having a tough time ranking Myles Turner, Siakam and Collins. They were picked within a round of each other. Obviously Turner takes blocks and looks to lose points, but the other categories are very close. I feel like Siakam's price tag of "top-25" is a bit rich for my taste, even as a homer. I hope people will sleep on Collins a bit, with more "popular" players' names being thrown around in the media and socials, so Collins can provide a bit more value for his ADP. What do you guys think? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

With improvements, he should make it to the top 25 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongs 1,316 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I'm hesitant to take players near their ceiling, but I guess in that 20-35 range they have similar upside Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kenny Mack 159 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Couldnt pass up covington at 38. He finished at 16 last season albeit on only 35 games due to injury. Id still wouldnt look at him as an injury prone type, as he played 80 the season b4 and a respectable 67, 67 and 70 games before that. Ranking at 16 last season shows his upside at this spot, as he finished at 36, 37 two seasons b4. Was looking for BIG here, but with players getting picked i pivoted to cov as he contributes across the board specially with the out of position blks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StifleTower2 2,525 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 (edited) Decided to switch gears and gambool a little with MitchRob despite arguing against taking him too early in his thread. Here, I think it represents a solid investment at pick 43. It's close to where he finished last year in per game (47th) and leaves good room for upside. I also like that I'm very guard heavy but if he pans out I can beat some teams in blocks who are much more big heavy. EDIT: That was a quick pick @young_styler I had considered Zion but I decided to take someone who can singlehandedly sway blocks for me.

young_styler 552 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 I hate that I somehow overlooked Westbrook in round 2. Would've been a much better fit with my team now than Booker. Oh well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
