Congrats. Draft completed. Front page updated. If everyone could, please update your team in the roster thread. Season starts next Friday as that is the first real game for any team. To allow everyone to play at least one game, the week will last from Friday though the following Sunday.

Gonzaga big man? I did. I couldn't decide between him and Dower and then said the hell with them both.SportsAndLady;1527787 wrote:Did you by chance have my guy on your list? lol I didn't do much research on him, just kind of found him and took him. It could probably be a horrible pick.

Jabari Bird of California was the Freshman I think will have a huge year.
I'm also surprised Yogi Ferrell didn't get drafted.
Yanick Moreira of SMU, as I predicted in the other thread somewhere, will be the best Freshman big man in the country. If my WC pick wasn't a center, I would've drafted him.
Sean Armand of Iona is another wild card who took a backseat to MoMo Jones last year. He will definitely be 20 PPG or more and Iona is usually in the top 10% of the country in scoring.

Yeah I had the dude S&L as my number 1 then I noticed they also had Dower so wanted to stay away from them. I really liked the did I got thoug but I did find it funny that 3 players from UAB were drafted.sportswizuhrd;1527804 wrote:Gonzaga big man? I did.

I was surprised Yogi didn't get taken as well. By the time I thought to take him all I needed were centers and my WC.

Agreed. Could turn out some great value at pick 12 for you.ccrunner609;1527846 wrote:I took craft in 12. Surprised he wasnt taken.

Yogi should have a big year, but I think Vonleh can average close to 9 boards a game. He's a beast in the boards. If he just gets me pedestrian blocks, steals and assists along with like 8-12 points I'll be really happy.
Because I had him, I didn't want Yogi. Told myself to not go with teammates unless it was a no brainer...

Lol. At least you got Brown. He should be good for 15 and 7, plus assists and blocksSportsAndLady;1527895 wrote:I didn't say fuck because the UAB guy was the best available..I said it because my guy averaged 5 points a game last year lol

Before I took Jordan Loveridge, the risk I was considering was his teammate, Delon Wright. Hopefully he doesn't blow up.

Yeah but your guy had 2 dudes ahead of him for post scoring who are now gone. The 3 centers taken before me were all guys I had on my list but I really didn't look that hard for centers once the best ones were gone.SportsAndLady;1527895 wrote:I didn't say fuck because the UAB guy was the best available..I said it because my guy averaged 5 points a game last year lol

This was the center I was talking about about ten pages ago. Guy's line last year was like 12, 8 and 2, and Seton Hall is going to be very good this year with Edwin running the show. My last center was between Teague and Obepka.Laley23;1527892 wrote:Surprised no one took Gene Teague as their 2nd C.

He looked nice, didn't he? Best small forward at Duke since Mike Dunleavy, in my opinion. Cannot wait for Friday.birddog23;1528059 wrote:Wish Rodney Hood's exhibition game would've counted…21/9/4

Just looks so smooth. Makes it look easy at times.

I'll have to check my list at work for Teague. I'm hoping I didn't forget about him on my list I put on my phone haha. Cause 12, 8, and 2 is better than both the guys I drafted lawl.

Also surprised nobody picked up T.J. McConnell, of Arizona. He's a transfer, but put up 30 PPG (our game) in his last full season at Duquesne. He's going to be the lynchpin in the Arizona offense. The first classic point guard Point Guard U has had since Mustafa Shakur or maybe even Jason Gardner. He'll be a big improvement over the shoot-first Mark Lyons.
