Educated risks are what separates good GM's from the bad ones.... sometimes you have to make a pick/trade that makes everyone scratch their head, but ends up being a steal or bust… its all part of the game.
Yes but this whole thing will probably be done before the season started, so how Amare actually does has no effect on this draft. I didn't know how '123fakestreet' wanted to deal with injured players, and if he was going to just have them be healthy, or have them negatively effected. If I knew what he was going to do beforehand, I wouldn't have even mentioned Amare. Also, your tone seems to be a bit derogetory; I don't appreciate it.
