Pick-up game at the H; team captains are Pimp Mario and 49r

[Norm Peterson]

Interesting 4 and 5 picks. Pimp has yet to choose a ball handler. This almost ensures 49r will have his choice of remaining bigs after Pimp makes his next selection.

Pimp, you're up.

I cannot believe, despite being a potential 6th man, that Tai Webster is still on the board. That would be great if the senior was the 6th pick.

I think it was awfully generous of 49r to not take him with the 5th pick.  There are precious few ball-handling guards in this draft and Pimp Mario didn't have any in his stable yet.  I would be shocked if Tai is still available after the 6th pick.

If you want to take over from here, I'll gladly defer back to you dimes.  So far you've got Watson, Gill and Roby.

In other words, you've recruited 3 Rivals 4-stars without even trying.

Nah, take it home. Also, make sure to check all the courts to see if Borchardt is still playing pickup ball somewhere.

Would have grabbed Webster with 4th or 5th pick taking both proven ball handlers and then pressed the hell out of Pimps team.

[PimpMario]

I will take Tai Webster!

[49r]

Michael Jacobson

Michael Jacobson

Nice pick. Thought I might be able to get him with the 8th pick.

[PimpMario]

Ed Morrow Jr come on down. I think he has a lot of potential for improvement in his sophomore campaign. Plus on my squad he will be playing at the 4!

[AuroranHusker]

Is this 5-on-5?

 

 

It would be intriguing to see how others might draft the squad(s).

[49r]

With the 9th pick in the pick-up game draft, 49r picks Jack McVeigh

[Norm Peterson]

James Palmer isn't eligible.

[Minnesota_Husker]

Very interesting decision for Pimp Mario here. He really needs a 3 most likely but Horne might have the bigger ceiling than Fuller.

 

49'er needs a 4 and so horne fits his team better.

 

 

 

Two well matched teams.

[PimpMario]

I will take Horne.  

 

I must be a friend because I went with size, size, size.

[PimpMario]

I meant to say I must be a Nebraska fan because I can't pass up size.

[AuroranHusker]

Horne is a steal this late in the deal.

[49r]

So I'll take Fuller as my 6th man, which leaves Laws to Pimp

Now, what happens???  

[Norm Peterson]

49r, go ahead and pick a 6th player so that you have some depth, just in case you want to do some subbing.
