6. Pistons select James Worthy
7. 76ers select John Bagley
8. Lakers select Eddie Phillips
9. Warriors select Xavier Stockton
10. Raptors select Kareem Cunningham

tomorrow's picks will be around the same time as today.  Not CPU picks so far, let's keep it up.

Nice! Kareem is already a feasable starter...hopefully he can show a touch of improvement with TC.

You can't teach size...and 6'11, 305 is really, really big. I'd be happy if he could improve one or two rebounding ratings, and he already looks like 15ppg with the size.

He was 7th of my draft sheet, with Bagley and Stockton being 5 and 6.

Don't have Phillips anywhere on my list.

Pretty sure a PG is going at 11. I've had a good look over the remaining players and it seems like a no-brainer. As well, I don't think the Mavs will take the other guy on my short list, so I'm going to be very pleased with my picks.

Kareem looks like a fringe starter right now personally, but youre right about the size part, hes a load. However if his true potential is higher than scouted, he could turn out to be a very good player.

Xavier Stockton has an odd skillset...
He is only 18, 7'4, 270 lbs.  he has excellent size for the center position.

I prefer to run an outside offense, and he is perfect for that.  With A potential and being only 18 years old, the coming years should show a lot of improveemnt.

Hmm.. I thought that John Bagley was the best player available in this batch (6th-10th). With my commitment with Ramsey and Seymore im putting him on the block.

I'm hoping it is, but if he doesn't improve at all I think he makes a pretty good backup on a good team.

Happy to get Worthy.  I really didn't want to go with a PG in this draft, but they were obviously the BPA's, so I bought the  potential of a few non-pg's to see if any of them were worth it.  I don't expect James to be a stud, but I do think he'll develop into a solid starter.

That being said, I was hoping one of Pressley/Kellog would fall.

So the old boss likes my first two picks? Very Happy  Phillips was really a guy I am hoping can be a good defensive role player on the wing.  I did not need a PG and Cunningham was somebody I wanted but I think small forward was a bigger concern for me than center.  I might have been able to make a move and trade up from 20 and 21 to get Phillips and take Cunningham now, but I am happy with my draft so far.

Phillips I'm not quite as in love with.  If I'm looking for defensive role players, I'm looking for one that can hit from the outside.  If you're not going to be a primary option (in which case I don't mind wing players that score primarily inside), you really do a detriment to both driving guards and post up bigs by clogging up the lane.

Cunningham looks like a bigger version of Shane Wedge, which is a good thing.  He could very well devlop into a very solid big man for Toronto.

X-Stock looks like he could either be a dominant player or a fringe-backup...I like the pick though.
