Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007: Round 4, Pick 10 - Tyson Chandler
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: H2H, Props, Roto, Site Features, Southwest Division, New Orleans Hornets, Talent,
The Fig Cap: “You want some? YOU WANT SOME?!?! Come get it, Gary Coleman!”
I’ve said this many times before and I’ll say it again, several times throughout this post if I have to, but you do not draft Tyson Chandler because he has a cool name; you draft him for his free-throw percentage… I’m obviously kidding. So, what do you draft him for? Check it out after the jump.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007 Round 4, Pick 9 - Emeka Okafor
Posted by Ron Chow Categories: H2H, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Charlotte Bobcats, Talent,
It was over three years ago that Emeka Okafor was chosen second overall in the 2004 NBA draft becoming the first ever draft pick for the Charlotte Bobcats. If you recall there was great debate whom the Orlando Magic should pick first overall - Dwight Howard or Emeka Okafor. In the end, they took Howard. However, it looked like early on that Okafor was the more polished player as he went on to win the Rookie of the Year award, just edging out former U-Conn teammate, Ben Gordon. Now the verdict on who is the better player between Dwight Howard and Emeka Okafor is a little more cloudier and it seems that the wind is blowing Howard’s way.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft Blog 2007: Round 4, Pick 8: Raymond Felton
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: H2H, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Charlotte Bobcats, Talent,
Team “Five” has been fortunate enough to land two solid frontcourt players in Dirk Nowitzki and Tim Duncan, giving them the freedom to address the backcourt in back-to-back rounds. With Chauncey Billups getting nabbed in the third frame, we’re going to bolster the guard position even more by adding a player bound for a breakout.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft: Round 4, Pick 6 - Ron Artest
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Central Division, Indiana Pacers, Editorial, H2H, Pacific Division, Sacramento Kings, Props, Roto, Site Features, Talent,
The Fig Cap: This is McFarlane Toys’ rendition of Artest. Booty to be slapped not included.
Allen Iverson is the paragon of the “thug” element in basketball’s current era of tattoos, cornrows, mean mugs, and putting out hip hop records. However, AI is the paragon because of all of his offcourt shiznizzle. So, if anyone has been the epitome of “thug” on the court (and in the stands), there is no question that it’s Ron Artest. Sure, okay, fine… why beat a dead horse? We all know about The Malice in the Palace and all that, but I WAS TRYING TO MAKE A POINT!!! In any case, despite the bad rap (and I don’t mean Artest’s record), the Tru Warier has some game and ironically enough, plays lockdown defense. But, that’s not all the boy from the QB can do.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007 Round 4, Pick 5 - Mike Bibby
Posted by Ron Chow Categories: H2H, Pacific Division, Sacramento Kings, Roto, Site Features,
Alright the fiancée is in the next room… I have a confession to make… I have a man crush on Mike Bibby, okay let me clarify I have fantasy basketball man-crush. I am not attracted to his latte colored skin nor do I think his headband highlights the shape of his eyes. I just think that Bibby is a solid fantasy player. For the past three seasons, I have either drafted or traded for Mike Bibby in at least one of my fantasy basketball leagues. I can’t really pinpoint what started the infatuation. Bibby is not a top five point guard. It could even be argued if Bibby is a top 10 point guard, heck, in our mock draft he was the 13th player taken that can be slotted in the PG spot!

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft: Round 4, Pick 4 - Jason Richardson
Posted by Scott Sargent Categories: H2H, Props, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Charlotte Bobcats,
I apologize for the delay folks. Sometimes, the personal life takes over for a bit – and some things are just unavoidable. Now it’s back to the grind of getting this mock draft rolling. With the first three rounds, “Team Nine” has selected Dwyane Wade, Andre Iguodala and Jermaine O’Neal. This gives an incredibly talented base at both guard positions as well as some flexibility to play Iggy at the three. Jermaine O’Neal’s flexibility is welcomed, as well as his abilities to notch 20 and 10 a night. While the health issues are definitely prevalent with this squad, I have no issues in adding some more scoring with some long-range talent and highlight reels mixed in for good measure. With a new home and bright outlook for this season, I’m going with…

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007: Round 4 Pick 3 - Brandon Roy
Posted by Alvin Lai Categories: H2H, Northwest Division, Portland Trailblazers, Roto, Talent,
The Fig Cap: You were taken 12 picks before me? And you played for Team USA first? Come here and taste some pain!
Nothing against Deron, but we like this guy. It sure got old fast but we were one of the first pronouncing “Roy for ROY” last year. This year? Look out.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007: Round 4, Pick 2 - Kevin Martin
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Editorial, H2H, Pacific Division, Sacramento Kings, Props, Roto, Site Features, Talent,
The Fig Cap: Boom Dizzle My P-Nizzle!
Anyone remember Special Ed? No, not as in classes, but as in the rapper from the late 80’s/early 90’s. “I Got It Made,” “I’m The Magnificent,” “Come On, Let’s Move It.” Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Seriously, whenever I see Martin with his fresh cut fade, I always think of Special Ed. To paraphrase Mars Blackmon, “It’s gotta be the cut.” Anyway, the aforementioned three songs I mentioned all apply to Martin, appropriately enough. He’s certainly got it made now after signing a five-year deal with the Sacramento Kings. Martin has played magnificently when given the playing time (sorry, got to pop my collar right now knowing I called Martin’s crazy game when Peja Stojakovic was hurt a couple of seasons ago; although I’m still waiting for Francisco Garcia to get his well-deserved burn) as last season proved. And now with his 2006-07 performance, he moves it (as in his draft stock) up all the way to the fourth round of this mock draft.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, Special Kev.

Dropping Dimes Mock Draft 2007: Round 4, Pick 1 - Joe Johnson
Posted by Ron Chow Categories: H2H, Roto, Site Features, Southeast Division, Atlanta Hawks, Talent,
Quick, do you know who the Fifth Beatle was ? The answer is a little more complicated depending if you consider the fifth Beatle being a musical or non-musical contributor. Some may say Pete Best, Stuart Sutcliffe, Brian Epstein or George Martin as being the “Fifth Beatle”. All right something a little easier, do you know which NBA player led his team in scoring and was one of six shooting guards that averaged both four rebounds and assists per game? Need a hint? His initials are J.J. If you guessed Joe Johnson then you are correct (of course, reading this post about J.J. should have been a clue!). Johnson has quietly put up solid numbers since joining Atlanta as a free agent.
