ty Assani. It was a tough decision between 4 guys. hopefully 40 picks from now I end up with the ability to take a great pg or sg and solidify porter' position.

I'm done arguing about McHale. I was just showing that I didn't bash you for not having seen a guy play. I "bashed" you for contradicting yourself.

Assani is officially on the clock. We are all waiting with baited breath... or bad breath.

No. You had no valid points, so I didn't see the need to reply. KG is overrated, lol.

Do you agree with this? If not, who benefits more?

I don't think McHale benefits at all, so I disagree with your premise that certain players benefit from the system.

Love the Glen Rice pick. I thought a lot of people would forget about him and he'd last into my pick in round 3.

Glen Rice was very solid and could make it RAIN. Def not BPA, not by a long shot, but a very nice pairing with Hakeem.

Glen Rice - Great volume shooter, could create, and took very good care of the ball. His defense was meh, but so were most of the volume guys at that position. He had problems with domestic issues, but so did about 10 guys before him.

I think it's a solid pick to pair with Hakeem.

He has a shockingly low ts% for shooting 3s so well.

Saying McHale's stats were hurt by playing on a great team is only stating half the story, because he wouldn't have gotten the looks he did if the defenses were not concentrating on Larry. I have kept quiet, because I realize that for whatever reason you think McHale is a trancendent being, but enough already.

I think his career TS% is misleading due to a pretty short peak (which obv should be considered). He's got a pretty nice TS% peak

I think Assani is taking XXXXX XXXXX. I'm already preparing my "atta boy" writeup.

Rice is the guy I was thinking of when Peja was picked, I think he's better. His 96-97 season is just insane. TS% of .605! He is a seive on D though. Def a top 5 shooter of all time though.

Peja had a higher ts% in 03-04 (.624). Peja is more efficient than Rice.

Glen Glen Rice Rice who's so good good you gotta say it twice twice.

He was a beast in his Charlotte heyday. Nice pairing with Hakeem.

Don't like Big Al this early. Love Laimbeer was hoping he would fall but I guess that was ambitious. Really love Porter and DRob.

You know, after looking at the numbers, Peja is slightly better in almost every category. I guess I should be the first to admit Im wrong. Peja is slightly better. My memory failed me!
