Arena The First Basketball Draft

this is partly my fault. i got confused on who picked what when, and thought drexler was his third pick. so YES it is mcclain's turn, and i've just sent him a PM clearing up my previous confusion. my apologies.

 

I think maybe it's time to get an updated list?

 

McClain's going to think we're all impatient here because I mentioned it in our ongoing PM conversation

 

well, didn't think three picks was enough, but two pages between them definitely is.

and just to remind people, Trades are now open.

Looking to trade up. Anyone interested in some later picks? Or, since Trimao has imposed regulations, promises for who I'll pick?

 

I may talk trades after my 3rd or 4th pick. Too early for me now since I only have 2 players at the moment.

 

Pretty much.



Anyway, this time I'm taking George Mikan. Sorry about any confusion from my end.

 

not your fault mcclain, was completely on me.

 

When I wanted to move up, it means that after your third pick, you will...


Mean nothing to me.

 

More or less since we are pretty close in the order and you'll have back-to-back picks after my third.

 

Oh blast it, I forgot to put in the video.

 

Bob Pettit

 

Man. These two guys I am looking at are completely different. Oh well. The Celtics fan in me wins.

KG

 

You know, I really am not going to forget this anytime soon.

 

Really like that pick EF, killer frontcourt with Wilt/Barkley and I was definately looking at KG as a potential guy for my pick, curious who that other guy you were looking at was...

Kevin McHale

Out of my 1st 3 picks, this (by far) was the toughest decision.

They beat Boston!: 2009-2010 L.A. Lakers: Back-to-Back World Champions

 

"Pistol" Pete Maravich

 

Love the KG pick there, EF.


But ... ... Tunick drafted a Celtic????

 

I know. It's shocking.

 

What?

 

I think he means he is going to proposition you for a trade at some point, but I am not entirely fluent in Yak.

Dwyane Wade

 

I was hoping Wade dropped back to me, though to be honest I would be conflicted to choose him over another.

 

This is very interesting, as I don't really have any idea what any of you value in a basketball player. A lot of the players--outside of the more obvious choices--that I value pretty highly seem to be being overlooked. But I guess it is still early.
