I’d bet the farm he’s the guy I want, and I’d also bet he gets taken. LolHuh. The guy I almost took in round 2 hasn’t been taken yet. I hope he sticks around for 2 more picks
UK All-Time Draft Playoffs
- Thread starter DraftCat
- Start date
Theres 2 guys i debated beyond Nerlens and im surprised both are still there. After Delk i had to get a point and center but it was hard not to go with the 2 others
Gotta be the same 2 I’m thinking too
I believe I know who you guys are thinking, but I'm sure its not who I'm taking as you two don't need a PG like I do.
I'll take the only 2-time SEC tourney MVP, all time shooter and floor general: Travis Ford.
@GoBigBlue712
Dang, that was my man. I’ll go ahead and take another big man. Give me Julius Randle.
@jrpross your turn sir.
Damn you.
That was the one I almost took last round. But I’ll be tickled pink to add Jamal Murray to my roster.
@drcats2013 you may proceed
That’s a good pick. I decided I would take the chance and wait for my knockout shooting guard.
I’ll take a floor general that can do it all on both ends and has tremendous length. A guy that led a pretty average team to a sweet 16, and would absolutely thrive with good players around him. Give me Shai Gilgeous Alexander. @JHannibalSmith you are up.
Dang. Nerlens was my next pick, I was hoping anyway. Thought everyone may have forgotten how much of a defensive force he was.
I figured he was maybe a reach for where a drafted but next to davis theres no other defensive option as good (i can see an argument for another similar player), but 4.5 blocks is 2nd best season behind davis. If he played all 33 games at his 2 steals average he would have finished squarely in the top 10 for steals in a season as a friggin center. That team prolly woulda played more than 33 games had he been healthy too, he had top 5 for a season steals potential which is crazy. My thought was although him and rondo were relatively limited offensively they would be a defensive nightmare with their length, which would make up for Delk also being 6’1 at the 2. Although he too was a great defender himself
With the run on PGs you guys are forcing my hand, lol. Since it’s getting thin there I’m gonna go ahead & grab my guy even though I’m sure he’d still be there in a round or 2. But, I need a floor general who can both defend & score. So give me UK’s all-time assist leader, Dirk Minniefield.
I debated between him, Knight, and Ford for a while.
My bad, I had just gotten home from the grocery store & was in the middle of sanitizing everything & rushed thru my post & totally brain farted on the announcement. This nonstop meticulous sanitizing is driving me insane, lol.
1st team All SEC. SEC Freshman of the Year. SEC Player of the Year. Consensus 2nd Team All American. Future lottery pick.
One of the best big game players in recent memory.
The fourth most points in a season by any Wildcat *ever*.
The third most threes in a season *ever* while shooting 40% from deep and taking difficult shots.
A freak athlete with a true shooting percentage of almost 60%.
On the fifth day, God created the animals. In the third round, I drafted one.
Give me Malik Monk.

This is an easy pick for me. Arguably the most underrated player in school history for reasons that I don’t know. Follows the mold of toughness that I want with my team. Led what was by far the best team in the county in ‘03. The FOURTH most points in this prolific school’s history. A scoring machine and a good defender on the wing, my selection is 2003 SEC POY Keith Bogans. I don’t plan on him spraining an ankle in this tournament so I couldn’t be happier with my team so far.
@UKNorse you’re up
@UKNorse you’re up
Crazy he lasted. I almost took him w my 2nd pick lol
**** you, that was my guy
I had a plan for my team and hoped me may be there but I never planned on him being available lol. I was going to take a lesser guard but I wasn’t passing up that opportunity. Still no clue why Bogans gets overlooked like he does.
Needed a big center to handle the likes of the ones already chosen. Give me Melvin "Big Dipper" Turpin
@hotelblue
@hotelblue
Killer value with that pick. He was the only person that gave me pause when I selected Murray last round.
Absolutely. I was gonna take Bogans or Monk with my last pick but I didn’t have a PG yet & they were dwindling fast so I bit the bullet. Bogans is one of the best value picks so far, IMO.
Shew my next 2 picks are going to be difficult, being on the turn I feel I'm always reaching for my guy
My last two picks I’ve had my mind set on taking one of 2-3 players & there was a run on a certain position in both cases that forced me to go a different route. I definitely reached on my last one.
Well I've got D. Fox one of the fastest and best finishing PGs UK has ever seen. DCuz the beast down low.
They say you can never have enough shooters around here.
Doron Lamb shooting a scorching 47.5% career from 3 will be the last pick of the 3rd rd.

I know in 24 picks the shooters wont be makers anymore haha
Give me a true 6'6 small forward Darius Miller... as we all know he can do a little bit of everything.
He's the perfect glue guy at a scarce position in UK history.
