The Greatest Moves of War... also where has my wisdom gone?

Finally, today is the day. The day that I can start to piece the important finishing touches to my plans for the US of A trip. It is our honeymoon and also our 're'marriage with Elvis Presley and I have breaking news for all. Jarrett will be my best man on this occasion. Also 1 hour ago I just had my wisdom teeth ripped out from the gums that held and nurtured them. They were twisted, poked, levered and finally pulled. All of the above was fine except for the pulling which ended up with a near death scare as I grabbed my throat and tried to gasp for air then coughed up a stray tooth which went into the back of my mouth and clogged my airway. Finally, I breathe again.

Recently being between employment I have had a look at many web pages showing draft results from different leagues and also seen some interesting picks from owners too. I wish to briefly touch on our league and some 'great moves of war' or great picks/steals of the draft. I would also love your input too.

PICK 16 - Shawn Marion

How did he fall this far? Easily on the verge of being a top ten contributer in fantasy and maybe the scare of not playing with Nash might make people think he is gonna get less looks at the basket but points, steal, blocks, rebounds, some assists and an occasional trey how could you go wrong?


PICK 22 - Caron Butler

Again somehow falling this far! Butler to me is a poor mans version of LeBron, he gives you points, rebs, steals, assists but unlike Lebron, Butler gives you amazing FT%. With no one else in Washington at the moment Butler is the magic behind the Wizards.


PICK 25 - Danny Granger

Granger gives you damn good stats across the board but is on a crappy team and even though he is on a crappy team he gives you DAMN GOOD stats. With Jermaine O'Neal moved out of Indiana to Toronto it looks like Granger is the man to lead the Pacers and I think he got the goods.


PICK 42 - Kevin Martin

Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency. I was ecstatic to take him for my squad. He is also given the run of the squad with Artest gone and his numbers go up and he keeps his turnovers low.


I quickly glanced at the some of the higher end of the draft and I would love to hear from you guys who else you think was a steal in the draft.

Until then... keep your wisdom
