Thanks. If not for you doing so, this thing would be impossible
Rupps Runts has done a magnificent job drafting out of that last slot...looks like an early favorite
He’s got a good one. I always kinda liked the last spot actually though. Being able to pick 2 in a row helps immensely with sticking to your strategy.

Thanks. Had to start with a top PG and C. Wanted to pick another big to pair with Cuz, but couldn't pass up 2 great shooters with size. Surprised to see Keldon fall so hard but he's a welcome addition to the team, wanted Knox tho. Riddick was a fun pick that actually took research.
The only thing I like about last is I make 2 picks back to back and don't have to check this website a lot for my picks lol. I don't really make a strategy and let it come to me, 23 picks between is A LOT. Anyone I'm considering on my turn will assuredly be gone in that gap if I don't select them. Farewell WCS PPatt I hardly knew ye.
I've made some picks I normally wouldn't just because I'm enjoying the research aspect of this draft. While I like my team it definitly would take someone to research in order to make a great case otherwise voters will go off recenty bias.
I'll have to provide that info in the polls and hopefully they will read!

Well my plan was to take Rhodes but seeing as how hes gone and im in need of some offense, ill take an underappreciated big who has 2 of the best single season PERs in kentucky history Randolph Morris @420grover ur up
This guard in interchangeable at either position, don't take crap from anybody, and can knock down shots from deep in the clutch.
Patrick Sparks
This guy is interchangeable at the 3/4 and for a long time he held the honor of being the only person at UK to every record a triple double.
Chris Mills.
Back to you @YaySports

the best value left me thinks. was going to take him 6 but my team identity wouldn’t allow it. it was him or evans or fitch. i was afraid of taking fitch idk why lol.
Wow. 2 picks, 2 kicks to the balls...nice job. Lol. Especially Mills. I was taking him if he made it to me.
mills is a very good pick at this stage. only a couple guys should be ahead of him at true sf when you think about it.
I had my hopes up he would survive one more pick to me. Ill take fitch if youre still afraid of him lol
Yeah, I think he gets overlooked because he was only here a year and transferred because of the sanctions. But he was damn good in that one year.
I'm fine with you taking all of them. They ain't in the rafters because of their stats. Lol.
Yea today was a little slower than Monday for sure. Hope we can wrap this up by Thursday and start the playoffs Friday
i think he had a bit of a screw loose. but he was a heck of scoring little 2 guard. big crossover and a crafty midrange game. he never seemed to use his crossover to drive all the way as he’d always bring it back, and usually shoot. but he got them off and hit a lot of them. he was also great coming off screens.
that’s a motion offense. will be interesting to see how he’s used, he actually played a lot of point. a player like him who is quick and can pivot you just run him in a giant circle around your side of the court until he’s open. his range was definitely more on the elite side.
hopefully the combination of 4 is not necessary, like it is on captain planet.
Son of a BISCUIT.
The next 3 on my list were Morris, Sparks, & Rhodes

Give me a guy who brings veteran leadership and quietly very solid stats, Reid Travis.
@jrpross
@jrpross
you stole me pick you bastardized poster.
one of if not the best mid range shooters in uk history. the guy took 2 3’s a game, shot under 30%, and shot basically 60%+ on all other shots. if he takes a shot inside the arc it’s most likely a made basket.
Ok, so I wanted a backup big guy and I was having a hard time until I realized this fact: in the time period we’re considering (after 1975) only four, count em FOUR, Kentucky players have had more rebounds in a season than this guy. (AD, Randle, T. Jones, and Cousins)
He also shot 61% from the field, played solid defense, and performed all sorts of dirty work that doesn’t show up on a stat sheet like saving a possession by drilling the ball off of Jared Sullinger out of bounds like he was playing dodgeball.
I’m taking Josh Harrelson and going to bed.
@drcats2013 do what you will

Give me a versatile 3/4 that should fit nicely in his role for my team. I’ll take Trey Lyles
I’m sorry lol. It’s funny, we’re all huge fans and know exactly who’s left and best to pick. I could count on one hand the amount of bad picks I’ve seen in this draft
Id think Liggins may be viewed as one of them solely bc he doesnt have much to go on based of accolades or scoring punch but to go up against some of the best UK players ever you gotta have a wing who can slow down or lock down guys on the perimeter. I went defense first with almost all my picks solely for the thought of trying to defend other greats. Ill lack a little offense when its all said and done but my team will have some dogs all over the court.
Liggins as your fifth starter with his defense is not a bad pick, imo.
