Team Draft Reviews(Amos Did These)
1.Lost Cause Clippers?
True Shaq was a gimmie, but whats this shiz takin Exel in the second round?
You could have landed a good point later down the road. This would have been
ideal to get a good SF, but they are not stuck with Toni Kukoc..who is far
from Live00 Production. Nabbing the General in the 3rd round was smart,
rebound against these guys? Don't bother. Rider is one dimensional.
Grade: C-

2.West Side Philly
Low down..they swap picks to get #2 to draft the best young guy out there in
Kevin Garnett..immense talent. 2nd round I thought about waiting on a PG, but
Armstrong was there so I took him. Hughes is better than people give him
credit for, always a quick scorer. DD is not much of a scorer, but can crash
the glass and defend rather well. JYD gives the 6ers 3 double double
rebounders. Nice defensive outlook here, could use better shooting though.
Grade: B+

3.Atlanta Contenders?
It happes when you draft Spree, JRose and Tim Duncan. Sure, 60 plus ppg and
more stuff...so nice. This team was cruzin til the fourth round when they
took AMase..I would have went after a real center or point guard. Well if
there wasn't any worth a damn, then Mase is fine. He can board..shoot and
pass well. Mo T in the last round was very nice, Hawks have too much offense.
Grade: A

4.Whornet Disaster
Camby in third round, Mash in second....this does not go over well. Taking
Mash over JRose..oo buddy that was not smooth, nor was taking Marcus Camby
who might I add is not the most productive. Kemp was a solid pick, TV isn't
there but does produce. Stoudy in the last round was nice, he can cover the
point guard slot admirably.
Grade: D-

5.Dallas Domination Webber is crazy..Dirk is a big time scorer/shooter..Brandon, believe it or
not-he is a top 5 point guard. Those 3 alone give these guys a reason to
think championship. To complete this..? Veteran center Saboner..sure hes no
shaq, but he gets the job done and Smith who gives them another shooter to
cause oppenants problems. Very nice work.
Grade: A

6.New Jerseys for the Nets?
Well KvH can keep his. Look at what surrounds him..Kobe; a killer; Cookie
Monster-monster defense..Stockton, classic PG-round 4 at that! And then to
compliment Tumbo, PJ Brown whos has some of the BEST defense in the league.
This team will be hard to score on mos def-they have a balanced offense to
win-lookout.
Grade: B

7.Houston, we have a problem
Taking Rice is the problem. Very bad move. The guy does not fit into their SL
of DRob-Theo-Rich-Kidd..do the math. Hes no longer worth a damn.
Kidd-Ratliff, two of the best defenders at their respected positions, nice.
DRob is a top 5 center. Richmond is old, but the guy still scores and can
defend decently. This team really fucked up on Rice.
Grade: B-

8.Laughter at Phoenix
Lets all laugh..Jamison? Nice pick, 14ppg 5rpg MAYBE. Jason Williams..7apg,
4TPG. I don't think Kandi was a bad pick, center class was shallow by the
5th round..true Olajuwon and Ewing were around, but they don't last. This
team had a beautiful start with TMac and Toine, but this wagon fell apart
real quickly afterwards. Got some work to do here.
Grade: D

9.Milwaukee has a frontcourt
Finally. Zo and Coleman sure beat Ervin J and shit. Zo, second best
center..thats nice enough. Coleman was a 5th rounder, a 5th rounder who will
get 18-20ppg 8rpg...o hey jamison went 3rd...HMMMMMMMMMM. GRob is still
there. Bibby, nice youth and does get better. Hes no cassell, but he will
last longer. Mercer is underated, good scorer and can do the little things at
that. Balanced SL-look for them to be playin in the post season.
Grade: A

10.No PG, No C, No Problem
Cleveland, even tho they did not get a PG or C, totally fucked us all. VC,
Odom, Marshall, Mobes and CRob. Tremendous offense here. VC is the
centerpiece, Odom can ball. Marshall is good for a double double. CRob,
weak..but can score and defend-but defend centers? Mobleys atheltic and very
fast-PG standards? Does not pass. For now, it may be wise to put Odom at the
point since he is the best distributor here. Mobes is a run and gun guard.
put him back at SG. NICE stuff to work with here earl.
Grade: A, I'd say A plus-but no c or pg

11.Weak Sauce Lakers
Wallace does not do what he did in real life. Him and Howard will have fun.
Starting them off, they land Pierce and GP...DEFENSE DEFENSE unless you Sci
in aLLs who witnessed Kobe pounding 55ppg on pierce in the playoffs. Houston
is good for lighting up defenses but also good for getting lit up himself.
Brian, Wallace? Drugs yes? Lay off of them sucka.
Grade: D+

12.Disgruntled Kings
Thats what I hear. Marion is ownage on the game. Hes so nice....I'll take
him. Cassell, 19/9 most likely, thats great..defense not there. Frentz can
score, he can block shots..and he can rebound. Moving forth to SG. DA was
nice in 4th round. Hes nifty. Better than people think. Jerm is nice and
young-puts up very solid numbers. This team will score and pass a lot.
Grade: B

13.Head stuck in Ass?
Rasheed in the first round!? WHAT THE HELL. His backup (in real life)Kemp, is
as good. Whats that saay Toronto? Good lord. OK, then they land Francis, nice
value-good scorer, but does not have the passing skills. KMart at center is
asking for trouble. Pippen, fairly good pick-aside from age hes pretty good.
Christie has terrific defense. Questionable moves Ace...very..Sheed over
Malone..Stack..Walker..Marbz..Brand..Hill. WoW
Grade: F

14.Chinese Can Draft
Magic did very well, only can say Dickerson may have been a bad choice.
Nonetheless he can light it up with his shooting. Findawg and Marbz, ouch
what a backcourt. That reeks of awesomeness. Baker, I despise the obeise
monkey, BUT, he puts up good stats so can argue with that. I like AD in #4.
Hes got the TV and can put up 14/15ppg and 9 or rpg. Nice work.
Grade: B

15.Can I get a Rebound?
Sure in new York. Fortson only gets 16-17 a game. Jackson just gets 8 or 9.
Naw, they can't. O wait..Eddie Jones, great defense and a nice pick, gets
what 5? Same for Ray Allen. Allen and EJ? Who'd thunk it? This team went all
out except for their point guard. They should have went for the more passing
orientated point in Eric Snow or Mark Jackson. Knight can play defense but
for a point guard, this guy just sucks at shooting.
Grade: B-

16.Lay off the Viagra
Nuggets devoured a shipment of it. 7'3 center, 6'9 forwards, 6'6 SG, 6'7 PG.
OK they are big big big. McDyess, I'll say kindly, SUCKS. 8rpg? not even a
spg? This is not dyess. Rahim..20/11? Good. What about that center..o
yea..Ziggy. Underated. Scores, blocks boards..what else do you want and need?
JJ does little other than score, so I ask, why him and not Rod Strick or Mark
Jackson? Penny is not PG these days...does many things, but is not the ideal
point guard.
Grade: C+

17. Hills, Mailmen, Reggies OH MY
Playoff veterans Reggie Miller and Karl Malone (monster scorers) join up with
star Grant Hill, vet center Elden Campbell and slinger David Wesley. Nice
team eh? Sure have the experience. No youth for the wolves these days. Wesley
may not pass that much, but with Hill and Malone, he does not have too. He
can gun the ball, which he does well. Reggie, o damn, can he shoot. Malone,
not the friendliest NBAer, balls well. This team better pray for good young
backups.
Grade: An old B+

18.Even the Commish Fucks Up
The Bulls draft Divac over MJ and Ziggy-laugh now. Timmy Hardaway? Why not
go for another position and wait on a good point guard? Guess not eh. Brand
and Stack are nice..yes nice NICE. Thats what, near 50ppg between two guys?
Like woah. I like Lamondster. a 74 that gets 17-18ppg, 5-6rpg. Nice. Albeit,
Brian, bad moves getting tim and vlade divashit.
Grade: D
