Alright gimme a little. Was hoping VC or Durant would fall haha
Re: WhatIfSports Draft, Round 2-all defense, bush/Rob's pick
I actually think they're close, 09=10=11 roughly IMO. He had the mid-low-post game in place by the 08-09 season. The Chandler trade finally gave Dallas a good defensive big (who could finish and wasn't a complete stiff) to couple with him.l3bron wrote:Meh, 2009 Dirk is better than 2011 Dirk anyways.

VC was a good bet to fall to you. Durant... I was surprised he didn't go first, although I didn't check Dirk's numbers compared to his.PhutureDynasty wrote:Alright gimme a little. Was hoping VC or Durant would fall haha

How do I check a player's efficiency at a different position?

On their Whatif profile, go to "additional information" (tab", and it will show you the breakdown.PhutureDynasty wrote:How do I check a player's efficiency at a different position?
I actually think some of their analyses along these lines are absurd, but whatever...

No, more like calling you a dreamer for thinking that Durant might still be there.AlaskaHawks wrote:vcsgrizzfan wrote:VC was a good bet to fall to you. Durant...

I was very happy jjstalker didn't take Durant. He is 1million+ (salary/statistically speaking) better than any other player in this round.vcsgrizzfan wrote:VC was a good bet to fall to you. Durant...

I think I am going to get a good deal through the backdoor if people aren't paying enough attention.
Unfortunately, I am drafting behind Grizz. I wishing I was drafting behind Abe.

Well, after Gainsville's pick I only had one more bullet to dodge lol. But, 01 Carter ain't half bad.vcsgrizzfan wrote:No, more like calling you a dreamer for thinking that Durant might still be there.AlaskaHawks wrote:vcsgrizzfan wrote:

Re: WhatIfSports Draft, Round 3-Olympians, AlaskaHawks's pic
Not looking to help out the opposition per se, but I think some people may have missed this in the OP:
When choosing Olympians, you can choose the year before they were in the Olympics or the year after they were in the Olympics. For example, Tyson Chandler was in the '08 Olympics. You could choose 2008 or 2009 Tyson Chandler. That choice is up to you. However, once Tyson Chandler is picked, he's totally off the table. Also, if you want to choose an Olympian who was in college during his particular Olympics, you can choose his rookie year in the NBA. For example, Stacey Augmon was in the '88 Olympics, if you want to choose him, you could choose '92 rookie Augmon.
