4th is definitely too low for him. I’d have taken him early third for sure.

And something told me LR would reach for him. LR does have the first pick in the third round and fit flexibility. It could pay off with the right drop.

Ah I wasn’t around for the mid season draft, guess I’m not the first one to take Wemby. Oh well, still fun

Given the lack of great centers I briefly considered AD at three - what a steal. That and Steph/LeBron are my favorite pairs so far. And Brunson pops in the second after going undrafted (!) before.

Fit is just too good with both pairs. Hopefully I can build around them 2 better than Fade did.

AD was the other main guy I considered instead of Wemby, but figured I'd go the fun route

If AD was still the shooter he was a few years ago I wouldn’t have hesitated.

Of course if he was still the guy he was in 2020 he probably would have gone third.

Still a phenomenal pick where he was taken and a great pick with Luka though.

Tbh I'm pretty sure they'll be top three in MVP behind Jokic. I think they both should have gone higher in the mid-season game.

No worries, Ant isn't half bad either. Bridges was fairly high on my list as well. He fits perfectly on your team. Would thrive playing 3rd fiddle to Luka and AD, plus he's an amazing POA defender to provide cover for Luka.

I had Jokic both drafts so I tried to take the should've done path from last time of Siakam before a star perimeter player.

Didn't think Mikal would be a priority for Flaco since he scooped me on George. At least he let Jrue through leaving me a lot of flexibility in the backcourt.

I'll be interested to see the reaction to Sabonis, who was undrafted last game. Great offensive player and scrappy defender. Tends to be more valued in the real world. His 13 FGA is a little pricey for a non-MVPish center. Was affordable for me with Draymond and Jrue being bargains.

Interesting to go with Kyrie instead of Jokic's real life wing man, a proven fit and a little less expensive. Kyrie is the better player for me, though.

I'm low on Domas generally but especially with Draymond.
