Jazzfanz ALL-TIME Fantasy Draft

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Maybe people missed it. Here it is again...

This is the last meaningful pick for us, since after this we only have a few spot minutes available at a couple positions. That said...

At forward, 6'10" from somewhere in Croatia: Toni Kukoc

Highlights:

Sweet-shooting forward who can stretch the floor or slide down to the post
Good size
Underrated passer
Can facilitate up high while KG posts his defender, making Penny and Nique cutters or kick-out options

Key part of the Chicago Bulls championship teams 1996 - 1998
Averaged 19 points, 7 rebs. and 5 assists for the Bulls in 1998-99
Averaged between 33% and 45% from 3-pt. range throughout his career
Plays better as a secondary scoring option

You just picked. It won't be your turn again for some time. Just come back tomorrow.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Right. I was just hoping to get entertained by other people's picks. It's a nice day out.....

With my 8th pick, the Spycams select...

ANDREI KIRILENKO

-3X All-Defensive Teams
- 1x All-Star
- 1x Russian League MVP
- Euroleague Defensive Player of the Year and All-First Team

AK gives me a versatile and lockdown defender on the perimeter, while continuing with my theme of great passing at every position, and ability to get out and run in the fast break, whether it's starting the break with a block or steal, making fancy passes, or finishing in transition. After picking AI, I don't feel I need a ton of scoring off my bench, I need a Swiss Army Knife and defensive specialist--AK gives me that.

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

Wait, wait, wait...am I missing something? Why is AK being selected? Are there certain rounds that are Jazz' players only?

At AK's best, he got a good pick.

Nice pick Spycam

A lockdown defender? LULZ.

 

[spycam1]

A lockdown defender? LULZ.

A wing who could get 3 blocks and 2 steals? Yeah. He was truly one of the most unique defenders the league has seen in a long time. I believe there were a few years when he was runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year.

 

[larryselbows]

You came all the way to this thread to say that?

I concur.

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

AK and Lamarcus Aldridge have been picked but The Pearl and The Chief (just to name a couple) are nowhere to be found. This draft's been a debacle.

Wow, a one-time runner-up for DPOY is now a lockdown defender. Interesting.

Been gone for about 5 hours ... Who's up?
