This was my other option, but I already have Rod Rucker so didn't want 2 guys on the same team.

Thanks, I had never heard of him either, just like almost everyone else on my team, haha. 6'4'' guard who gets steals and rebounds so hoping he improves on last years numbers.

Toss up for this pick and had to tweet Jeff Goodman of ESPN on who to pick. He tells me to take...

JayVaughn Pinkston - Villanova

I am sure he would tell me someone else if he knew who was left.

He's a top 10 available forward lol. He might benefit from the realignment of the conferences.

Fuck! I thought Ross was taken rounds ago when ohiobucks got on here and asked why he was still available! Damnit!

Myles Mack, G, Rutgers. There are guards still out there with higher scoring averages (our game), but with Baby Jordan now out of Piscataway (Eli Carter), the keys to the car are in Mack's hands. Drive fast, kid.

La Q, nice pick. I've been debating a lot on him but the more I read the more I think he might not put up as big of numbers as I was thinking. Would guess he's around 14-15 PPG with 5 or 6 RPG but not much in the other categories. Would guess he has quite a few 20+ scoring nights(points, not our scoring) though.

Great pick. He was my pick coming up until I realized I need it to be a center lol

Did you get to see the kid play when you were in New Jersey? I think he could break out.

And, your Eric Mika and Keith Frazier (jealous I didn't get him) picks have really got me contemplating taking a huge risk with my last pick. It could be really good, or an epic fail. Or I'll just fall back on a proven upperclassman who will provide stable numbers. Really tough decision.

The thing with Ross is that exactly. He's gonna score and get some boards, but not sure what else.

Fine with me. I can't make a decision on my last pick. Need to mull it over some more.

I can't decide on my last center.... I have 2 guys who I think could have really good seasons. Pretty interested to see who the last wildcards are.

Mulva is debating for his WC and that's why I waited, lol. I'll be making the last WC pick, because while I have them ranked, it is so close between 4 guys that I didn't want to choose and be wrong and then pissed at myself. This way I'm content with who I end up with and if I'm wrong, it will be other peoples fault lol.

I'm most intrigued by Az's unsolved freshman mystery. There are two or three guys whom I thought it could be, but all turned out wrong.

I already made my WC. I'm pretty sure I know who I want, but I need to do some last minute fact checking before I take the plunge.

Nice pick. He put up solid numbers as a freshman last year (as you already know by picking him). Could be a breakout sophomore. I was kind of surprised that he wasn't taken earlier to fill someone's forward quota. He could be better than many already picked. He was one of the guys I was considering for my last spot.

Yeah, I expect he'll be good for 26-28, on average.
