2014 *Current Players* NBA Fantasy Draft

[Coach Ellis]

What do you guys think of the Bradley Beal pick?

Good pick. He was my top target for my current pick. I have a Plan B., but Beal was Plan A. Feels like the All-Time Players draft all over again.

Problem with Derozan is that most people already have their main scorers and Derozan can't shoot, so he isn't an ideal 2nd/3rd option. Great player though, but I don't like the Wall/Derozan pairing. Two extremely below average 3pt shooters for their positions.

I've got him as the scoring 6th man off the bench. He'll handle the ball and get to the FT line often (7th in the NBA last year getting to the line, 4th total FT made).

What do you guys think of the Bradley Beal pick?

Very good pick. Great player who showed very good improvement this year, so we can expect him to continue to improve. He played well in the playoffs and was actually able to get to the FT line (something he didn't do in the regular season). If he can continue that into next year, he will be an All-Star.

Well that is good then. Guess we all need to snatch up the remaining SF's before you can get one.

I have a trade offer that I'm looking at. I need to give him a minute to respond before picking. Then either he can make his selection, or I'll make a pick. He's online now, so it shouldn't take long.

I responded, don't know if I'm the only one you contacted though.

Problem with Derozan is that most people already have their main scorers and Derozan can't shoot, so he isn't an ideal 2nd/3rd option. Great player though, but I don't like the Wall/Derozan pairing. Two extremely below average 3pt shooters for their positions.

exactly why I took Parsons over him

Well Klay is a good 3pt shooter, so I might move Klay to SF, still haven't made the final decision.

 

[Coach Ellis]

SF/SG: Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Well Klay is a good 3pt shooter, so I might move Klay to SF, still haven't made the final decision.

Well one of hte things that makes Duncan look so great is the elite floor spacing the Spurs are able to employ, which would be very difficult to do with Derozan and Wall on the court at the same time.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Well Klay is a good 3pt shooter, so I might move Klay to SF, still haven't made the final decision.

Think DeRozen is a better fit at sf. He's more of a scorer then a shooter, and I think he's bigger and stronger. 6-7 220lb's

 

[NUMBERICA]

If people don't start scooping up some bigs, Nickkk is going to really have a hell of a starting lineup.

Roy Hibbert

Might be a polarizing pick, but you can't deny what he brings to a team's interior defense. The paint will be on lockdown with Davis and Hibbert. Davis will be able to cover Hibbert's lack of ability to rebound outside of a limited area. Going to need to pick up a solid 3rd big to take minutes off of Hibbert, but this makes my defense truly elite.

I have concerns about his conditioning and his mental toughness, but I think it's a very good pick for you.
