Thought that Asik pick was a bit strange. Makes more sense now.

Gay was bound to be picked sooner than later. Great complement to Dragic, Bledsoe, and Bogut.

Needed another scorer, and there's only a couple out there plus him that I see available.

Plus, the fact that he's shooting efficiently now as a third wheel sold me.

Lillard-Leonard-Aldridge-Noah is frightening.

EDIT: filling out the bench might be hard though.

Thank you. I'm very excited about the core of my squad thus far. Exciting to watch, compliment each other well, and can not only contend this season but for the next 6 to 7 years as well.

Phoenix is another team that could put together a great running team.

Two PG system. Bledsoe and Dragic. Slide Rudy Gay over to PF. Bogut in the paint to provide interior defense and rebounding (help balance out the smaller quicker side). Bring in another shooter and athlete at SF. Run and gun. All day long.

I'm interested to hear why Chicago moved Noah, though. He's having an MVP-type season.

Yeah, Chi-town moved Noah for a 3rd and 4th round picks...not quite 'oh my god why did you do that' type of a deal but def not one that favors Chicago.

I felt the value was too good to pass up.

Noah is having an excellent season but Asik is the forgotten one. If he was off the board, I wasn't making the deal.

Noah is obviously superior offensively, but I consider them both elite defensively. Zach Randolph and Omer Asik is a very formidable frontcourt and I pick up an additional 2nd and additional 3rd to go with my additional 4th. With only 20 teams, I think those picks are quite valuable.

Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.
