Round 1&2


Round 3:

Seann - Allen Iverson
Sim - Jose Calderon
Shih - Marcus Camby
Ongai - Caron Butler
Nor - Kevin Durant
Jon - Manu Ginobili
CJ - Chauncey Billups
Ng - Rudy Gay
KO - Carmelo Anthony
Enrile - Vince Carter
Oinkg - Tyson Chandler
Chewy - David West
TR - Kevin Martin
Anton - Jason Richardson

In round 3, I got to pick 4th overall and at first I wasn't really happy about it. I thought I had a good chance of being number 1 and getting Allen Iverson as my 1st pick but I slipped to 4th pick and ended up getting Caron Butler. I never targeted Caron Butler since my strategy was to go big or find another PG to complement Hibachi but picking Caron Butler was too tempting and I just had to pick the best player available.


Round 4:
Anton - Andrew Bynum
Enrile - Antawn Jamison
CJ - Rasheed Wallace
Oinkg - Joe Johnson
KO - Andrew Bogut
Seann - Chris Kaman
Shih - Mike Miller
Jon - Andris Biedrins
Sim - Lamar Odom
Chewy - Mike Dunleavy
Nor - Mehmet Okur
TR - Devin Harris
Ongai - Ron Artest
Ng - Gerald Wallace

As for Round 4, we did another "lottery" just to give a fair shot to everyone to have a higher pick and whatever position you get here would be your permanent draft position. In round 3 I got 4th overall (32nd) while in round 4 I fell again to the 13th pick which is the 55th pick overall. With that pick I ended up picking Ron Artest for the reason that I already changed my plan with the pick of Caron Butler and I wanted a small forward who would give my an all around game with great defensive numbers. Artest gives me around 2.3 steals, which is a great complement to Arenas and Butler who steals a lot. He also gives me great numbers in assists for a small foward. So after 4 rounds, I have three players who can give me close to 4 assists per game. Another plus is Ron Artest might be eligible in the PF position for Yahoo and this is really great for my team. After 4 rounds I have Arenas, Al Jefferson, Caron Butler and Artest.

On his favorite teams after 4 rounds..
So after 4 rounds, this is how each team looks like. I really like how CJ's team is turning out to be. With CP3 and Brand as his keepers complemented by a great assists and 3 guy in Billups and more steals and block with Rasheed, I think this is a well balanced team. As we all know it's hard to get great PGs and that's what he did..have two solid PGs to run his team.

I also like Seann's team of having Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade, Allen Iverson and Chris Kaman. What can you say about this team? They'd be solid in FT%, Points, Assists, Steals and these guards can rebound. As for their 3s, they're actually not that bad. I'd be looking for another big man in the next round to help them with the boards if I had this team.


So any comments? What do you think?
