I am happy with my first pick. Would have been the perfect trainee if he were a bit taller. Since I am training big men, I'll keep and train him a while anyway.

I put maybe $60,000 total into drafting, and I was able to get this guy with my 8th pick in the draft. MY team is horrible, so he'll easily be inputted into my starting lineup. I only wish he was taller, at 6-08, he's small for a PF -- but if CArlos Boozer and Charles Barkely can do it, why not Hodei Calimano.

he's solid aaron. keep him and if you are training guards train him hard. id do 3-4 weeks of pressure training before doing anything else. from there you have some leeway.

he's a 5.5-6* player now and after 3 seasons will be 9-10* if trained right.

Since Grubbs is spread so thin, I guess he's not going to make the trip to Australia.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

Nice KB I got a similar player also MVP stating him at C because I also got a SF that is 6'10" with good all around skills and allstar potential. Too bad I blew my 3rd rounder though could have snagged a MVP PG ended up with a SF that got canned quickly lol. The thing I like most about them is they have strong free throws already. No lies that SF can play all 5 positions right now for me with decent defense inside and outside. Just curious how do players make the U21 team? I want to make the effort to get him on that team.
