Drummond is the best rebounder in the NBA. He's a beast on the offensive and defensive glass. He's a good shoot blocker and finisher around the paint. He's gonna be catching lobs all day long from Kyrie.G- Kyrie Irving F - Kawhi Leonard C- Andre Drummond Reveal hidden contents Nice pick. His free throw percentage is his only downside in my opinion. Drummond really stepped up his game last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, with reports stating that it was a clean break, i'm confident that he will be able to come back strong and produce at all-star levels again. Hayward is a player who can play with the ball in his hands or off ball. He's an excellent cutter and can he can run off screens for catch-and-shoot situations. It makes it easier to integrate his skillset into the offense because he doesn't need to have the ball in his hands at all times. Defensively, he's solid. Not a liability and is able to hold his own on that end. It's important to surround Jokic with solid defenders to help take the pressure off him. Hayward will be slotted at the 3 and Butler will move to the 2. PG: SG: Jimmy Butler SF: Gordon Hayward PF: C: Nikola Jokic @pimp you're next!! I took Hayward last season. That injury was horrible and I hope he returns to form. I remember Bron took a look and walked off. He stayed on the sidelines looking down most of the time while they worked on Hayward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drummond really stepped up his game last season. He has improved on his free throw shooting too. He shot a career high .605 % last year. That’s still bad , but it’s a big improvement over the 35- 41 % that he had been shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucastheThird Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Gonna go ahead and use my next two picks on my starting big men. AL HORFORD and CLINT CAPELA Al is the perfect utility superstar to put next to Simmons for him to thrive. Can space the floor and makes others on the floor better. Capela is there for added rim protection and defense, plus occasional lob passes. I believe it's back on @pimp 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have reached a bit but he wouldn't make it to my next picks. This is a tough draft because you know you have to fill spots even if there is someone at another position you like better. I had to do the same thing with Turner, Take him at 25 or not take him at all. I think Turner is solid between 30 and 40 but if I wanted him, I had to take him when I did. My reach for Turner might have been bigger than yours for Capela. But we both got players we like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Speaking of Capela . . . 5 yrs - 90 million. Pretty good for a defensive big man. And he was the guy I was trading up to get. Oh well. Give me 30 minutes, and I'll try to get the pick in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 You know what? It's time to go Super Sayian. Whether it be Dragon Ball, or the NBA, the Ballers will do anything to win. With the 38th pick in the Hawksquawk Fantasy Draft, the Northcyde Ballers select . . . DEMARCUS COUSINS At 27 ( soon to be 28 ) years old, the Ballers are not concerned about Boogie's ruptured Achille's Tendon. He's definitely young enough to overcome the injury. And with the way the league ( and Hawksquawk ) left him for dead, he'll be as motivated as ever to make a major imprint on the league once he returns. At 25.2 points per game, and career highs in rebounding ( 12.9 ) and assists ( 5.4 ), Demarcus showed time and again why he is the most talented center in the NBA. If it weren't for his ridiculous amount of turnovers ( 5 per game ), Boogie may have been a top 5 MVP candidate, had he stayed healthy. Once Cousins comes back, he, Porzingis, and Lebron instantly form the most lethal frontline in the league. When the world champs acquired Cuz, everyone cried to the heavens. Now it will be the Squawk that cries. Make them pay, Demarcus. Make . . the . . PAAAAAYYYYY!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNorthCydeRises Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Forget the 3-guard lineup . . we're trying to start a revolution. SIZE MATTERS.

Marvin24Williams Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 With the 39th pick in the draft, the Marvy Marv's select: JRUE HOLIDAY Holiday is another elite defender who offers a versatility on both ends. Pairing him up with Butler would make for a fantastic duo on defense. Offensively, he provides solid play making and shooting ability. He has turnover problems when playing as the lead guard but he should fine on this team. He was at his best when he wasn't asked to do too much in terms of ball-handling. With Butler and Hayward being able to handle the rock, he should be able to replicate his excellent play this last season. PG: Jrue Holiday SG: Jimmy Butler SF: Gordon Hayward PF: C: Nikola Jokic @lethalweapon3 you're up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
