Can someone confirm if DL is pick #21 or we’re up with double picks?

Neither lol. DL is 20. Then you're double picks at 21/22 (assuming we don't get a last second join from a reputable poster)

I feel like KAT is getting slept on. All of these recent picks have been solid, but I would take him over all of them + over Booker. He basically has the same skills as Booker but is 6 inches taller.

Pretty sure it went:
- banzai at 19 (Pg13)
- witty at 20 (Beal)
- DL at 21
- us at 22

.
No idea. His only 2+2 post apart from the four in this thread is a single one from 4 Dec 2020:

Which doesn't seem particularly troll-y. I kinda assumed he was an alt.

This. And you (KanMan/tarheelz) again at 23 if no one else joins before you pick

ok i'll let him in, but he has til 1 pm to pick. not waiting around for potential troll accounts. then Kan/Tar on the snake

I did an IP check on DL for fun. They have successfully not had their account tied to a banned user, so good for them.

Plus any draft could always use more Dubs fans.

#21 Zach Lavine, was not an easy pick

Dude is a baller, 42% from 3 this year on 8 attempts per game.

Have him from age 26-28.

PS KAT is such an offensive stud, its scary

id love to see KAT on an actual team.

LaVine took a big step last year, imo. Actually interested to see how that Bulls team looks this year.

I’m pretty unavailable from like the 2-8 today, so let’s run some picks before then yah?!?

At #22, we're taking a king hooper and author of one of the most iconic shots in NBA Finals history - Kyrie Irving. Not sure if it was his best season (tough to compare considering the insane scoring environment which was 2021), but he's coming off putting up 27/6/5 on 50/40/90 splits for the consensus Finals favorites. In a 3-year dynasty, we're really happy with this value.

At #23, we're going with Bam Adebayo, an absolute two-way monster at center. While he may not have the offensive credentials of the centers drafted ahead of him like Jokic, Embiid, and Kat, he's way less of a threat to be exploited on the other end of the court (specifically in the playoffs) as he can easily switch all 5 positions and doesn't have issues with mobility or stepping out on the perimeter (like the aforementioned 3 or Gobert). At the same time, he is continuing to grow on the offensive end (his scoring and assists have gone up through each of his 1st 4 seasons), and he's proven he can be a semi-hub to run an offense through (consecutive seasons of 5+ assists). We're hoping his next 3-years are similar-ish to undrafted's recent Championship run from 15-18.

#22 Kyrie's age 29-31 seasons
#23 Bam Adebayo's age 24-26 seasons

Love me some Bam. Was deciding between him and KAT. Probably would have gone with your same combo if I could have guaranteed I’d get the scoring guard I wanted, but didn’t think I could fade that many picks in between.

Bam/PG would have been the best possible combo, imo, but didn’t seem realistic from my slot. Need a high volume perimeter guy with Bam, wasnt going to get the premium dudes left.

ok snakes back to DL then

I have to head out soon, anyone I can leave a list with?

Unless DL and Witty are both here?

Lavine is alright but definitely hard to title with him in a league like this. I think he's near peak and he's a weakish all-star.

Kyrie + Bam is pretty sick.

I can take a list.

Trae has been mentioned in numerous posts, I was hoping that Zion would fall to me.

He'd be fun to build around.

Love KAT, would love him even more if he was on a functional basketball franchise

yeah feels like a Kyrie/Bam team is totally live vs the top teams assuming good picks in the double r3

DL is skipped. Witty on the clock. I have Banzai's list.

.

WAIT WAIT WAIT

Why am I skipped?

IÂ’m taking Ben Simmons and surrounding him with shooters

Lavine+Simmons

Cuz you took over an hour. It’s in the rules . You are unskipped now tho. Witty has 2 hours since I’ll use full tank for Banzai

vini: do you want to take a list for me too?

Your conjecture is str8 🗑

Lavine was a highly recruited guy outta high school, lottery pick and has improved every year in the league… most notably on D this past season and I get him age 26-28.

CANT WAIT TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS ON BEN SIMMONS!
