Cuban Linx Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 "Greer's putting the ball into play . . . He gets it out deep and Havlicek steals it! Over to Sam Jones! Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over!"

CanadianChris Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 OK, NOW it's my pick...

Somehow, I doubt it.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Dammit Chris, I've had Frazier down as my point guard from the start. I was very conflicted between him and Drexler, as to who to take first...I chose wrong . Although I'm sure Drexler wouldn't have lasted til my next pick either.
Maztinho Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I'm doubting my next guy I want will be around when I have another go either.
Precious Roy Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I was sure I'd get Frazier or Drexler with my next pick. Bastards.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Damn it! I so wanted Frazier. Somehow I sense Mo Cheeks being your next pick .
Steviekick Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Hahahahahaha. You figured me out. I'm trying to rebuild the 1983 Sixers.
The Niggardly King Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 John Havlicek I hope your team bus gets tommy gun'd
Brett Favre Posted May 9, 2008 Author Report Posted May 9, 2008 Havlicek wasn't going to make it back. He probably should have been your first or second pick. I'm pretty sure everyone knows who's available (there aren't any out of no where picks, or I can't believe everyone forgot this guy picks) so if you want someone make sure you take him whether you're reaching or not.
The Niggardly King Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I know, but I have unrealistic dreams for the All-Star Pasties.
alfdogg Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Mullin may have still been on the board at 56. I would have gone with Havlicek and Cousy there.
The Niggardly King Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 MULLIN IS TOP OF THE LINE TALENT IT WASN"T WORSE THE RITHK
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Mullin may have still been on the board at 56. I would have gone with Havlicek and Cousy there. I don't see Mullin going ahead of Reggie Miller and Miller aint going anytime soon so I'm sure Mullin would have still been around.
Guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I'll be the guy to say I wasn't going to take Mullin or Havlicek.
Precious Roy Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 I was surprised Karl Malone lasted so long. I know he's unpopular, but still. I would have taken Barkley ahead of him though. Also, people need to stop dropping names of undrafted players.
Maztinho Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 Karl went right about where I figured he would, mid 2nd. I almost took him instead of Ewing, just for the chemistry connection, but Ewing was too tempting to pass on. I second the undrafted player name drops (although I did it in my argument with EHME, my bad)
Precious Roy Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 I'm going to make my pick in an hour if VX doesn't show. Anyone got a problem with that?
Brett Favre Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 If you'll be able to get on an hour or two after the 12 hour limit, give him a little bit of time, cause I never made it a hard rule. If you can't, then yeah I guess.
Guest Vitamin X Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 Wow this draft is a load of bullshit for me now. I was going to take Drexler and Frazier with my next two picks. This is awful now. I'm going to start making some picks that'll really piss some folks off, very soon.
Precious Roy Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 Yeah, I was going to take Drexler/Frazier too :mad: Anyway, it's your pick, hurry up so I can get my next one before I hit the sack
Brett Favre Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 As long as you don't pick Vin Baker.
Guest Vitamin X Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 Alright, sorry Pacer fans! The 2nd most prolific point scorer in NBA History, and the best 3 point shooter... SG Reggie Miller The most prolific 3-point shooter in league history, Miller helped define the term "shooting guard." Nobody could catch and shoot better than Reggie. Despite being rail-thin, he was a very tough competitor who could take a beating and would run defenders ragged off screens. He played with an assassin's mentality and was one of the greatest clutch players of all time. His 25-point fourth-quarter performance against the Knicks in 1994 is legendary. He is the all-time leader in 3-pointers made and attempted. And he scored more points than any 2-guard except Jordan. A title is the only thing missing from his résumé, although he did average more than 21 points per game in the playoffs for his career. That gives my team 63,666 points scored combined. Aw yeah.
Brett Favre Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 Roy, don't go to bed just yet. If King shows up, we might able to run off four more picks cause I see MFer is around.

GODDAMNIT
Precious Roy Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 I love the Miller pick, I was considering him, but ultimately I decided to go with this man Willis Reed The first player to win NBA MVP, Finals MVP and All-Star game MVP in the same season. Also won Finals MVP in 1973. Beat Chamberlain and the Lakers in the finals twice, and at 6-9, 235 more than held his own against bigger, more celebrated opponents like Wilt and Kareem. Tenacious defender and rebounder, absolute workhorse, he had a deadly jump shot, one of the first centers with a true inside-outside offensive game, one of the NBA's 50 greatest team, would be even more legendary if his career wasn't cut short by a major knee injury.
