What Would You Do??? Giannis & friends...

Jay M · 2017-09-17T17:27:33Z

So I pose this question... Who do you pair with Giannis? I had options of Draymond, Embiid, Lowry, Gobert, Whiteside, Conley with my 20th pick. In this 12 team 8CAT ROTO slow draft, I have pick 5, 20, 29 and wanted to hear some opinions on who to pair with the big Greek man and what thought processes you go through in the first 3-4 rounds. I have this slow draft, so there is time to discuss and talk it out, I went with Lowry for my second pick(20), who can offer points, assists, 3s & steals, so I am happy with that now. At the time I was leaning towards a big - because they are so scarce. Pick number 3 is coming around and the options to go with Giannis and Lowry are the following...Embiid, Gasol, Bledsoe, Rubio, Beal, Kemba, Griffin, Love, Hayward, Millsap, Vuc & Thompson (and the rest - except for Middleton who went 26!). The two picks still to play out before my pick could be anyone of the above. Lets talk it out, what goes through your mind when it comes to pairing and matching stat sets this early on? Do you go best player available? Do you gamble in the 3rd on Embiid? Do you play it safe? Keep in mind, next picks are not until 44 & 53, so who knows what mess/gold will be available there, if Middleton is going at 26, your guess is as good as mine as to who might be there. Im happy to answer questions re the draft, and think the more real life draft scenarios we talk about, the better prepared we will all be!! Thanks in advance! *I will update if and when draft picks fall!

This is amazing stuff. If you get Horford too, I'm gonna name my fantasy team "I wish I had Jay's Team".
