My fantasy league just drafted, and I was hoping to get a few opinions
about
some of the picks I made (a couple of which were kind of questionable
according to the other managers in the league). I got 11th pick out of 12
teams (which sucks but also means I get second refusal for waivers which
can't be all bad). These are in order of selection, so the first pick of
the second round is the last team in the order.
[my thoughts in brackets alongside each pick]
First round, other teams:
K. Bryant [hey, he's on my exclude list anyway]
K. Garnett
T. Duncan
E. Brand
T. McGrady [damn, someone beat me to him]
D. Nowitzki
L. Jackson
S. O'Neal [another one I put on my exclude list, just as well]
A. Kirilenko
L. James
My pick: Y. Ming [if he's still available, why not? yes, I happen to be a
Rockets fan]
R. Allen
Second round:
S. Marion
My pick: A. Stoudemire [was considering either Steve Francis or Allen
Iverson here, but figured Stoudemire might go quick too]
J. O'Neal
P. Stojakovic
B. Wallace
E. Okafor
S. Francis [kicking myself]
M. Camby
B. Miller
A. Iverson [kicking myself again]
S. Marbury
P. Pierce
Third round:
B. Davis
Z. Randolph
P. Gasol
D. Marshall
M. Bibby
S. Nash
A. Iguodala
D. Wade
S. Cassell
R. Wallace
My pick: J. Stackhouse [many people express surprise, later I find out I
should have done more research and seen he was a possible injury risk]
A. Walker
Fourth round:
M. Redd
My pick: J. Magloire [realizing the rest of the good centers will probably
go quick and I do have two center positions in my lineup]
and I'll stop here for this post.
