NBA Draft Rounds 4-5
- Thread starter DraftCat
- Start date
I need an actual 4. So Im going Julius Randle. I also really feel hes a super star in the making, especially with his recent weight loss.
I'm out with family, so I'll keep this short. I was going to pick Capela here for rim protection.
Instead, I'll bolster my rebounding and take the double-double machine Nikola Vucevic.
Dudes a beast. Almost grabbed him myself. Hes on the uprise
maybe we can revise pick limits in these later rounds? Seems silly to wait 12 hours for someone to select stanislav medvedenko
It's definitely tough to try and keep up sometimes if you get busy, but now that everyone's at work and not with their family, it'll probably be easier. I'm at work from 9 to 5 most days, so I have from 9 to 5 to make my draft picks lol. I have my necessary excel spreadsheets up with Catsillustrated in the background.
A quick rapid fire one would sure be fun, but I'd be drafting 8th round picks in round 3 if I had 2 minutes to prep lol.
I don't want to brag but I know exactly who Gonzo's going to pick. I'll pat my self on the shoulder once he's posted. I'm confident that I've aligned myself with his way of thinking as well as resigning myself to the fact the player I want is one that'll be taken before it gets back to me.
I'm locked in on three guys, but would be surprised to get any of them.
Have two back-up plans. Hoping to come away with two of the five in my next two picks.
Looking at his roster it's clear that he needs some size. Quality big men are few and far between at this point. I could probably name the 3 players he's looking at too, they are likely in the same group I was picking from this round.
Hey just on the off chance anyone else is reading this thread, I'd rather we not discuss who/what I might pick until i'm OTC.
Fair enough, but you did say I needed more interior defense after my 5th round pick. I don't know that I went any further than that with my comments.
I love it when a plan comes together.
13 points, 9 rebounds, over 1.5 steals and blocks, with 57% shooting, per 36.
And those should only improve as he plays with a true playmaker in Chris Paul and beside a PF who is a great passer instead of a black hole.
But the numbers don't tell the story.
He's the guy Westbrook trusts and respects. He's tough, strong, aggressive, and the perfect fit for the modern NBA. A big, mobile, rim protector who doesn't demand touches to score. The rare brute who can bang in the post and switch out front on the pick and roll.
And he's just 23 years old even though it may feel like he's been around forever. He's another guy who has been through the wars and proven to make winning plays.
Give me Steven Adams, C.

He was on my list. I was surprised that Adams' numbers were so low. They really don't adequately represent the value you get from him. He has been the anchor in the middle for several deep OKC playoff runs.
However, I have to question the bad chemistry you are building. Green and Adams together on the same team? I just can't see that going well.
I think he is saying that those are his averages prorated at 36 minutes per game. His actual stats are much lower (11.3/7.7). The per 36 is a good way to see how effective a backup player can be if he were given more minutes. I'm not sure if it is a good measure for a starting center.
Uh that would actually be awesome. And I will do it if people are ok with using a 2k16 simulation
