Very happy with that!! Was hoping to get one of Carroll, McHale, Gminski at 5 with Mahorn as my fall back worst case scenario. 2 very important building blocks for the Nuggets who are ready to step in and contribute right away!

[CelticsGM]

good picks all around.
hope that potential of the top 3 isn't valid, though.

and the rest now get's even PG heavier. Guess we could do without any PG at all next draft and wouldn't miss a beat ...

[MavsGM]

I need PG help.

I don't think so... unless you are talking about your only option for a trade in Magic.

[ClippersGM-old]

Wow... I got Mahorn with the 4th pick while he was the first guy on my list!

Kelvin Ransey is going to give you very similar numbers as Mike Evans.  Their offense is pretty much same except Ransey is more balanced so you got a better ball handing PG but give up defense and rebound.

I have no untouchable players, but some are more touchable then others. Feel free to make an offer via PM....though a nearby pick is what I was shooting for, if anything.

Happy with McHale....hes a good TC from catching up to Carroll, so hopefully that B potential is either high B or even misrepresented. Being a big Celtics fan through the eighties and nineties, this was a no brainer pick for me - he was actually my favorite player on those great teams, with that deadly up&under/fadeaway combination. Hopefully that B+ IN scoring is as impressive in Sim as it is in real life. What drew me to him. (Especially since Zach retired).

Each player in the top 15 or so has one flaw IMO, and his is rebounding - I don't really want to line up two C+'s in my frontcourt (which I might have to since Zach retired - yup, I'm bitter), but it might be OK....my experience has been that D and REB are two categories most likely to improve, so I hope they do. Plus, he was a helluva man-on-man defender in the real world, so I hope that continues.

Picks fell as I mostly expected, though like Nuggets (who had a nice haul), I expected Gminski to be picked before Mahorn.

[HawksGM]

very happy to get Carroll, the best big man in the draft, just hope that potential isn't true, or i might have to buy out the last year of that contract, hopefully it isn't like his real life potential
