2001 Draft Discussion

[Oregon Ownage]

I put a strong effort in getting some busts this draft.

Exactly what every lotto pick holder wants to hear LOL

More like real life though

Lottery picks have almost all been guaranteed to be productive with no real flame outs

This draft is crazy, like 9-10 deep in guys who could be good or worthless, and no real clear studs.

For real. So glad I'm not having to deal with this. That said, sounds like a good number of these lotto teams are trying to trade down or out.

Speak for yourself, I drafted Detlef Schrempf

I think you guys are pretty far off. Most drafts only have 1 or 2 top players who are teens and have potential to explode. This class, top 3 picks should all be teens. I think it's a fuckin sweet class.

100% a boom or bust draft across the board

Pick 8 could be just as good as pick 1 or 2 and no one would be surprised at all....but it will also take 3-5 years to know because this class is so young

Al Harrington looked dead after his first TC and now I’m optimistic he’ll be huge for us. Patience pays

Sorry been busy. But I agree with everyone’s statements.

I think in season 2009, we will look at this as one of the most crucial drafts for rebuilding teams. Like Ownage said it’s more real. I feel we should have more of these kinds of drafts. But after 2003, we will have so much talent coming in. Tried to give us 5 great drafts, 5 not so great drafts and etc etc

As of 2003 or after 2003?

I mean if you subscribe to the theory that teenagers are all going to explode then sure, but starting off so raw leads to a lot of room for variability.

If I remember correctly, in 1.0 the talent level after 2003 exploded.

We needed a center so badly. So lucky to jump up to grab Tyson Chandler.

[the goat]

Looking to trade up a bit. Have 14, 22, 37. Maagloire and Mo Pete can move too.

It’s like 20% pot boost, 60% stay the same or barely move, 20% pot death. But even staying the same pot for a TC is a huge advantage if guys are comparable

[Cellar-door]

Really wanted one of the top 3 bigs, but oh well, going Parker as BPA
