I'm currently 4th pick in a 14 team 9 cat 9 player.
What would be a more calculated risk to reach for assuming that curry is my first pick? seems like im taking everything at ceiling? 🙁
4. Curry
26. Lowry/CJ or reach???
31. ???
54. Vuc???
59.
milsap at pick #26?
Gordon at pick #31?
Clint at pick #54? (if gordon is already taken)
after #59 what are some good bigs to look for? do you settle for Lopez? im finding it very hard to find a true C
There is a good chance you could get Milsap at 31
Vuc or Capela at 54 would be fine
Lowry isnt at his ceiling at 26 considering he was 12th on a per game basis last season and prob wont be available then
Are you talking Gordon Hayward at 31?
I would like to reach for aaron gordon, but that is taking him at his ceiling... saying that. 14 man league i think its hard to find good blocks, rebounds and assist
I didn't get him in any of my drafts but I think Capela is gonna have a huge year. Hopefully I can trade for him before it's too late.
Capella over Vuc you think? Capella does get blocks
I'd rather have Capela. Just beware of his FT%. If I remember correctly, Vuc had a pretty awful year at the free throw line last season as well though.
4. Curry
26. Lowry/CJ - Lowry is a great pick with major upside if he stays healthy; This is roughly CJ's ceiling, but less injury risk compared to Lowry. I'd take Lowry.
31. ??? - Some guys available here in my drafts that I like here were Klay Thompson, Marc Gasol, and Paul Millsap. These guys have pretty high floors with upside. Gasol and Millsap come with durability questions, and Millsap has additional new-team questions. Either of the 3 are good, plus there may be other guys who slip. Its a little high for Aaron Gordon, but a decent spot for Hayward.
54. Vuc??? - Vuc/Dragic/Clint/Dieng/Tobias/Aaron Gordon/Gary Harris/Tobias Harris/Ariza/Ibaka
59. - See above.
Some of those names may be available to you at 54/59. They all represent solid values, and most have additional upside.
Unlikely Brook Lopez lasts until 54. If he does, he's a strong pick there.
As for late round Cs, JaMychal Green and Dwayne Dedmon are good late round values. Olynk might be available late. In a 14-team leaguee, Mozgov could be an option with the last pick.
hank, you are a star! i like the way you think!
Monroe over Pau Gasol?
Good stuff from Hank!
