UPDATE: The Bulls (Jabroni), Braves (MicCheck12), and the Raptors (ss03) are all up to pick.
The Raptors (ss03) have until 23:20 EST (19:20 PST) to make their pick before the Suns (Dr. Seuss) can cut in front of him.

True, but Kareem, Artest, and Brand know more than enough to make up for it. Plus Flash isn't that shabby either. Nash can just flop, and we'll be good.

I couldn't decide between Nance and Brand, but picked Nance for defense and shot blocking purposes.
Carbo definitely has an amazing team, a little stacked though, but still pretty amazing.

I don't worry about your defense. Kareem and Elton are good insurance in the paint, and Artest for his size is quick laterally to close lanes and help out.
Doesn't seem like this cast of characters plays to Nash's strength, though. Nash made his MVP name in a run-and-gun, stop-and-pop system, and he's the only distance shooter in the bunch. Kareem and Artest are fine on the break. I'm not sure how Brand will keep up...maybe he's the outlet passer.

Man, those last picks were like they were straight outta Deal Or No Deal. I felt like I had just hit the 500,000, 750,000 and the 1,000,000 with those picks. Totally devastating to my board!

Had designs on a more pure shooter/scorer at that spot instead of Porter, but I changed my mind. Not sure if it was the best choice, but Porter can spread the floor and play some quality D, so I'm happy enough.

I know Marcus . . . the guy I almost picked 3 picks ago has less than 25 picks to fall . . . not a snowball's chance in hell.
