Ashley and I looked around at the depth chart at each position right now and think @JayBirdHawk had the right idea - just the wrong choice.   Yeah, we said it. Why take Conley when ther

Love the Randle pick.  He was my target here.  Sucks to be on this end of things for a change.    So with the 68th pick in the dynasty draft the Whining Spartans Fan is going off the radar a

@AHF I thought about taking Lowry but I went with the younger Conley.  Beside there is a good chance Lowry ends up getting fat again, lol.

I actually think both are pretty comparable picks and they stood out as the best point guards available by a significant margin.  As I debated them prior to your pick, I looked at age and they are only a year apart (87 and 86 birthdays) so the age thing isn't much of a factor for me - especially with Lowry seeming to get better as he ages.  While both are still in their prime, Lowry is top 10 in win shares over the last 3 seasons while Conley is 34th (similar gaps in PER and ws/48) which to me says he is clearly outproducing Mike the last few seasons so he was my lean.  I was happily looking at Conley as a great backup choice.  I like your pick a lot there.

Great picks by everyone. PGs and SGs are dropping like flies. I am glad mine are out of the way. Picking in the 50s for my 3rd and 4th picks would have left me in a bad spot for my back court. I love taking bigs and getting rebounds, but someone has to get the ball up the court first.

I knew you guys and girls would not let top ten players at their respective guard positions last until then. Now I just got to hope there are more than just table scraps left over to fill out my frontline!

picking in the 50s?  You might not pick again until Saturday  with  the way things have been going the last couple of days.

I know, it seems like the weekends are the worse which to me is a little back asswords. But then again, I am 58 and way past going out and partying on Friday or Saturday nights. I also think some get bored once the thrill of the 1st round is gone; which also happens a lot in regular fantasy once the draft night is done and the season starts.

We have a lot of hard core fans on this board and in this draft, so I don't see anyone bowing completely out.

Its a frustrating game to play but I can totally forget about everyday stresses while playing. Its a fun competitive stress if you know what I mean. The older you get, the more of a work out it becomes. Which for me is a good thing when I can get a little sweat flowing on a hot summer day!

Living in northeast Georgia on a hot summer day I can get sweat flowing by riding in a cart watching golf... Let alone playing it... What I'm tryna say is it's hotter than a seatbelt sitting in the sun when it touches your arm accidentally type of hot...

When I lived in Georgia, I can remember many days just walking out to my car and already having my head dripping in sweat berfore I opened the door to get in. Here in Ohio, we don't see a lot of +90 degree days; but I do remember what they feel like!

@Alex

 

its your our pick now.... @IheartVolt ran outta time 2 hours ago... I just wanna get to my pick.... 

Well, not just yet! Technically, @IheartVolt's clock started at 11:29 AM Eastern, and it's an 8-hour window, so check back around 7:30 PM to see if he and @Alex have chimed in by then.
