Great pick by SacTown. Thought Dirk shoulda went first.
I would of picked him if I hadn't fallen asleep.   >:(
Sucks man, though I must say I'm glad you did since I got Dirk and Ibaka was off the board.  I had Dirk 1, Ibaka 2, and Wade 3 coming into the day.  Was glad I got Dirk.
Still very happy with Pau  :)

I hope you're happy stealing my pick...

 ;D
just send me an incredibly favourable offer for him and you might get him.

That may include giving up your fellow Aussie Bogut, don't it?
Of course.. and picks  ;D

Can't do it, mate. You know how I love my Bogut.

I think I can live without Pau. Although that's a very slick back up plan for missing out on Dirk.
Buggar, Bogut is a fave of mine.

very similar production, especially in the last few games.

Still looking for someone to leave a list with. My pick is at 230.

If nobody else steps up send it to me.

I'll step out of class and make your pick for you or just tell my teacher "Hold on, this is the CelticsBlog Pick 2 draft!"

DeAndre Jordan + Anthony Davis = wow!

The athleticism, defensive length and activity between those two. They would be horrible to play against.

Figures lol. Well my teacher is pretty relaxed so it won't be a biggie.

Would rather somebody else do it if they can though.

Yeah, Jordan really stepped it up this year. Think I have him in my top 5 for centers.

thought about it but the main reason not to take him was age.  that and I wanted a top defender at that position who wasn't useless on offense

Who's going to score inside against New Orleans?
nobody
Demarcus Cousins.  Just like he has done all season long against Anthony Davis and Deandre Jordan. 

Cousins v. Davis - DMC 21.7/12.3 & Davis 16.7/7 (DMC even is out shot blocking Davis in the match-up)

Cousins v. Jordan - DMC 24/12.7 & Jordan 11.7/11.7

Not worried at all.  Especially since neither Jordan nor Davis can guard Dirk on the wing at all.

2023 Historical Draft - Brooklyn Nets - 9th pick

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson
Guards - Cheeks, Petrovic, Buse, Rip

Yeah I have short window with Dirk which was a concern, but with two very young guys I needed that veteran leader and there really isn't a better complimentary style to Cousins than Dirk (obviously Love and even Ibaka fit into that category as well).

Afflalo is the pick that just seems strange to me.  Can't quite figure that one out.

Left my list with BG. However, we both have class so I would really appreciate if someone could take on the list instead. See y'all later today.

Those stats really surprise me..

how did Sully take DMC to town so easily?

I could see why Boston picked him. SG position is very thin and Affalo is probably one of the best two-way SG there is.
