Round 7, Pick 251: Run JMC selects Jeff Foster

To further solidify my bench I took one of today's most underrated players. Foster is an absolute workhorse who makes the most of his minutes. In limited action, Foster has put up 7 RPG and played stellar D with a career DRtg of 100. He's not a scorer but can finish around the rim which is fine given my wing scorers. He should be a solid big off the bench who will fill that role well. I was kind of surprised to find out he was 6-11 so that's a plus as well.

Team so far:
PG: Jason Kidd
SG: Mitch Richmond
SF: Corey Maggette
PF: Al Horford
C: Ralph Sampson

SG/SF: Bonzi Wells
PF/C: Jeff Foster

FaDi on the clock...

That SI article on TH was great, why the hell do they suck so bad now? They need more of this ****, players talking about the game in detail, and about what they are good at, I could have read five more pages about that ****.

Good pick, but he's also gonna be your starting C pretty soon so you may need more backups.

Does anyone else think Foster and Durr look a lot a like?

I really thought Foster would slip to me, as well, jesus.

Jeez I had three guys in mind 20 picks ago, and they are all still available. I have no idea which one to pick after Fadi.

Black or White? Offense or Defense?

jesus dude spot on. Wonder if he has the same weird voice, too.

I thought he was slipping too. BJL didn't even mention his awesomest trait.. he freaking beasts the offensive glass.

Yeah, he is the BEST offensive rebounder literally ever.

I would prefer him on a team with Gilbert or Iverson; just imagine the ownage of all the missed shots pairing Foster w/ Deke or Wallace or whatnot. Just sick.

Does anyone else realize just how damn good Foster is? He's a better pick then all of the last round of bigmen for sure (maybe not Tyrone Hill) and is so deceptively good.,..

Hate the Hunter pick. I know he's a "winner", but his defense is good (but not great) and there are better PG defenders that can actually do stuff on the offensive end too. (Enjoy his sub .500 TS!)

I'm doing my writeup now, shouldn't take too long.

Bobbo knows my pick, and I've PM'd it to Capone so he can do his writeup.

I have a few guys in mind. If Seafood and or capone0 take either obviously it'll make my decision making process either but I won't take that long either way.
