Yeah it was either Smith, KJ or Gilliam. I just didn’t feel Smith would fit with Curry. KJ is more suited for a balance offense. Hopefully Gilliam pairs good with Rodman.The Bean Regime wrote:Bogues is imo the first "big" drop off in talent as far as the picks go.
I don't think I would have gone Gilliam over the two excellent PGs but that's probably just preference.

Also Ownage I can't believe you would snap up KJ instead of letting him come home.
For instance I had to decrease Pippen’s outside when the game kept moving him to SG, he was like Melo DASL 1.0. I do check out their wikis and rankings usually go by RL draft results. Then start working on ratings.

Re: 1987 Draft Discussion
Thought the Bucks would take KJ, but no real big surprises so far.

Re: 1987 Draft Discussion
Wasnt a criticism, sorry if it came off that way. Just something that was causing my brain to pull in multiple directions, make the choices harder (for me at least).jibbajabba614 wrote:Gives you an idea of how they simmed and how their ratings are.Craig wrote:Some of these draft notes are in direct contradiction with what these guys actually did in their careers so it's throwing me for a loop lol.

Re: 1987 Draft Discussion
No I didn’t take it as that. When doing rankings, on Kenny Smith’s report, he was a ball dominant guard but on notes he is better suited for a ball dominant shooting guard. Really just might what if the Jet had young Clyde. Points in 90’s controlled ball unless you were mike. 2000’s everyone was trying to be mike lol

I don't remember seeing "Elite" potential before.

Re: 1987 Draft Discussion
SO with the Hawks up I realized something fun......
Hawks literally cannot make all of their 1st round picks. They only have 2 open roster spots, they need to trade or drop a player between now and the last pick of the 1st.

Re: 1987 Draft Discussion
I could definitely see Mark Jackson being the steal here...Pacers w/ him + Admiral is a nice haul I think.
