I knew you were taking him:) With the lack of quality bigs hell go right around there--hes proven and should help a team right away.
I couldn't pass him up. I think he will be a really good player and I don't have another pick until 41.
GSW needs to shore up the front line and with Dwight in Houston, the brow in new Orleans and towns or ok4 going to the Lakers they need more big bodies. So getting the biggest mofo left. GSW selects Guillermo Hernangomez Spain
with the first pick of the 2nd round, the t'wolves select
Norman Powell.
with such a young team and already the draft pick of towns, the t'wolves can use a stable player in the backcourt and that's exactly what norman powell is. 4yr guy out of ucla, knows how to play the game and most importantly knows how to D up. even though he's only 6'4, at 215lbs and his quickness, he's going to cause alot of problems for opposing pg's and sg's.

He's got a chance to be a monta Ellis type sg with a powerful build . If he can add something to his outside shot he could be one of the big steals of the draft
Houston picks Danilo Fuzaro. Sorry Briggs, I think you are right about this kid.

1000% true. I had no clue on this kid before you wrote him up.
The next highest player on the board at a combined score of 53 is R J Hunter

totally agree briggs. he wow'd me a couple times this year watching their games. kid is a ball of fire, he's always looking to accelerate, but at the same time he plays smart. the fact that he played 4yrs in college, i think hurts his "draft stock" but there's no doubt someone is going to end up with a good player.

good pick
call its your pick.
The Lakers pick
Chris McCullough with a combined score of 57
The Sixers take Joe Young PG
Young is somewhat over looked and at 35 becomes very attractive. His athleticism measurements were on par with elite level point guards. You add in the 4 year 40% 3 point shooting his 90% FT shooting and his ability to get into the lane and I think you have a nice compliment off the bench for the Sixers with Russell. He spent his offseason working on his handle and should come to camp with enhanced PG skills.

I was hoping people would forget about McCullough. Nice pick.

Its actually not apick per se--somoene did not pick for over 12 hours and I just took the BPA per the combined score of the mocks. A couple of people have kind of forgot to take their picks and its kind of gone somewhat sour this year.

geez. sorry i didnt realize i was next. no i dont want the overrated McCollough with one good knee. i'd replace that with Jonathan holmes from texas
Della is awesome.Oops. Wrong thread.
With a score of 57 combined the Wolves get Chris McCullough F Syracuse
Philly selects C 6-10 255 Arturas Gudaitis. He reminds me a lot of Mosgov. Athletic C who can block shots hit the mid range run the court and be active with good size to him. I cant bring 5 2nd round draft picks back to the team so hes perfect to stash for a year.
