Answer 1

Here are the top 50 players....

also with your last round pick take Darko Milicic. He is probably going to be the leading shot blocker this seaon. And good in almost every other catagory if he gets min. which he will seeing as how he'll be a starter this season.


To the guy below me, unless your playing with more than 12 people and each team gets more than 13 players you can easily get Darko in the last round. Unless one of those 12 people happens to be a Magic fan.

Answer 2

Andrei Kirilenko, Chris Bosh, Allen Iverson, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are all great players whose teams didn't make the playoffs.

As to the guy above me, Darko is an average 9th round pick and won't be available last round.

If you can, draft JJ Redick or Rajon Rondo in the last round, both of whom probably will be available.

If you're going to draft Darko, try to do it around rounds 7-10.

Answer 3

Center Chris Kaman. Close to averaging a double-double last season, and has steaadily improved over his 3 seasons. Solid fantasy player. Got noticed last season because of the Clippers imporvement, but still not well known.

Answer 4

Pau Gasol (injured for 4 months though), Mike James, Chauncy Billups, Emeka Oakefor, Paul Peirce

Answer 5

iverson
mcgrady shak's o neil
