So it's a good thing that Thee exploits people getting old and getting sick?

It's all Hack's fault. My pick is up in one minute if Anthony Davis is still on the board.
In hindsight, I should have just traded up for both Gary Payton and Anthony Davis. They were the two guys I wanted to round out my starting five with.
I was greedy and hoped they'd both fall to my picks, and then I could use my next two picks to trade up for my 6th man targets. Didn't quite break my way though. Ended up getting Payton, but couldn't pry Davis away from Hack. (I tried.)
My pick at 48 was totally up in the air. I swear that I typed up at least 7 profiles before I finally settled on Webber. Now there's 6 guys that I considered at that pick that I want to try to move up for.

Well he's proving a service that not many are providing.. filling a gap in the market. Plus he is helping them have a better life? Nothing wrong with that I don't think?

This is a really good two way team. Ewing Pippen Jordan Payton all elite defenders. Honestly I don't remember if CWeb could defend or not.

The one flaw I see is three point shooting. Very little spacing teams will pack it in on them. Even Jordan works the high post a ton
I remember Webber being a pretty solid defender, just below top of the league, but if he had ever made a 2nd Team All Defense I wouldn't have been shocked (he didn't though). But yeah, that defense is tough - Payton/Jordan/Pippen are all pretty easily top 5 all time defenders at their positions, Ewing is very very good, and Webber is solid too.

Yeah. I have some plans for that.
Really wanted to get 2 way players as much as I could. I still see a bunch of shooters/scorers left on the board that can help me space things out and fit with the guys I've already drafted.

I thought Ellis had a pretty good team last year as well: Magic, Ewing, Dominique, Moses, etc. Only naming guys who have been taking, but you get the point. Sometimes in this thing the best team doesn't win, a lot of it is about matchups, imo.
