| Peja is a monster threat from downtown. Actually he's from the Balkans, but he's still better at shooting threes than I am at layups. If he stays healthy, he'll be great Finley's numbers did not drop even a little with the nuggets trade, so he's still a great pickup. Finley may be the only guy in the NBA besides C-webb who regularly starts alongside three white people. Jason Terry, Rashard Lewis and Cuttino Mobley all get more stats except Terry's gonna have a weird ass role now, Lewis got his contract and Eddie Jones' defense and lack of turnovers made me take him over Mobley. Still, in retrospect, I'm not sure about this pick. I didn't realize this 'til after the draft, but the way the nets offence works is that k-mart sets picks outside while the center works inside for rebounds. Seeing as MacCulloch is no Mutombo, I see this aging superstar having a resurgence in numbers. This isn't a stretch after all. Terry's gonna be in a completely different role with Dickau running point, and I think he'll score less with g-rob on the team. This guy is a one man dynasty, but he's also a dirty skeleton. His numbers dipped a bit last season, I think he might be getting old. He's still good for threes though. Last year's runaway Rookie of the Year. This guy is also a cocky punk, dunking on KG, but he's got talent, and his unusually good blocking numbers make him a good pick here. Now, Bibby is good. Everyone saw that in playoffs. It's just that he wasn't good during the season and he's starting the season injured, which is why it was right for him to drop this far. To show why this is still a C, let me just point out that Stephon Marbury and Doug Christie are both still available, and both are clearly better than Bibby. He's good, should do good things on the bulls except for two things. He's a headcase, and he's incompatible with Jay Will. Also, there are the trade rumors. Note: Rose played 83 games last season. Blocking machine who hits threes? What the hell? His numbers dropped a little after the trade, but still good. Go Frentzy go! Winnahs: Phil, Justin, Jose, Ade Losahs: Bear |
