Chat here to avoid clutter in the picks thread

Went with James with the first pick. Obviously a no brainer pick here.

[yrtb]

Yeah, that's the nice thing about the first pick, it isn't a very difficult decision. I'm interested to see how people pick with the new 3 yrs in the future rule. I've done about 3 of these in the past, but always for the present.

[italstallianion]

I might be overanalysing this, but I wouldn't have gone with LeBron for the first pick.

You can PM me who it was if you like since you have a late pick

 

But LeBron is IMO a no doubt first pick...he's 25 and the prime or a career is usually 28/29, so why wouldn't you take him at #1?

[italstallianion]

I'll say who it was when he's picked, well before I get my turn to pick.

[yrtb]

I don't get why you wouldn't take LeBron #1 though...

[italstallianion]

Did you purposefully put Flynnatic's picks last that way if (when) he gets skipped, we can skip his next pick and go to the next person?

[boston22407]

were do we go to see what the player salary is?

[italstallianion]

Yankshater posted a good link in one of the related threads. Hoopshype or something like that.

[yrtb]

hoopshype or ESPN

 

and ital, no, that was just out of luck

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I went with Melo. I could have done other options but I'm satisfied with my pick.

[Flynnatic10]

there goes youkers cap.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Maybe we should PM users when it's their pick (or even when they're on deck)?

 

Oh and this really should be moved out of contests/prizes. I don't care where else, but it's real easy to miss down here since no one's accustomed to checking this subforum.

[italstallianion]

Yeah, I'm busy enough in the NFL draft that I only check this when it's bumped up (ie someone posts in it)

[Cocos Disciples]

Also, the first post is way too long with each individual pick listed. That's gotta go.

That's what we had in the baseball draft, it was much easier to track how far the picks were updated.

[Cocos Disciples]

Can't we do a chart instead of an enormous list?

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

It's Kilo's turn right?

[Flynnatic10]

you guys can send me an email at Flynnatic10@yahoo.com, in case in near my pick. i check that a lot. and i cant get on from 8am to 3pm so if im up, i have school thats why ill be skipped.

[italstallianion]

Yes, it is Kilo's turn.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

You can always PM your pick (or maybe a list of three depending on how many are still in front of you) to either yrtb or a mod.

[TheKilo]

Went with Pau Gasol - he's probably the best offensive center in the game and his game has improved greatly over the last few years, showing the toughness many thought he lacked heading to LA.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Picked Tyreke Evans. Won a well deserved ROY last year, considered by some to be at least the next Dwyane Wade, at the very least he's a future all star. I feel good with him as my franchise player.

[Flynnatic10]

are there trades? and pick coming, i gotta work the salaries out

[italstallianion]

You have 2 picks Flynnatic.

[Flynnatic10]

i knew that, i have 1 pick ready, i need to find another

[Flynnatic10]

i picked brook since i dont have a pick for a while and he has a LOT of potential

I'm not sure Evans was the best pick for your spot, but you definitely get great value there, especially going forward.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

This time went with Al Jefferson. Excellent low post scorer and rebounder, him and Tyreke would be a pretty damn good combination. Some injury troubles and not great defensively, but the latter can easily be picked up in 3 years' time, and there's no sense trying to predict the former.
