This Official Sports and Mock Drafts Thread

[IATT]

I'm surprised by a fair amount with the draft.. but that's why I kinda think we should have had 3 separate music drafts with different genre groupings

but personally, I really really like J.. but I don't love him like I do others.. respect the hell out of his body of work.. but I wouldn't take any of his albums of certain guys singular albums

 

[Trey Bantz]

if it was a hip hop only draft reasonable doubt would've went in the 1st.

I was thinking of switching it up and going rock with that pick, but I couldn't pass up on the value of taking RD in the mid-third round.

Plus, I do genuinely love that album

 

[HNL HI]

 

There he goes. You picked the right album too.

Was surprised we went 2 and half rounds without Reasonable Doubt being taken.

Deadass b.

Nas won

 

[IATT]

only 3 artists have had more than 1 album selected in this draft:

1. Tupac
2. Nas
3. Kendrick Lamar

 

[HNL HI]

Nirvana too

 

[aNYone]

Nas won

Got damn right

 

[IATT]

 
Nirvana too

yea.. missed that one

but this is why I'm saying we could easily go more than 5 rounds.. or more than 2 UDFAs

but really I think we should have gone 3 drafts:

1) hip hop/rap/dance hall reggae (so beanie man and sean paul would be here)

2) r&b/neo soul/lovers rock reggae/conscious reggae/softer reggae (maxi priest would be here)

3) everything else

 

[Trey Bantz]

I like Nas and Jay-Z equally.

Sue me.

 

[EddieDoyers]

I hate Jay Z and Nas comparisons
Those two old farts don't even care for the rivalry anymore

 

[HNL HI]

It was just a joke about him having a album go first 

 

[statis22]

Maybe not his best album (or maybe it is ) but it's my favorite album from him

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

 

[aNYone]

Maybe not his best album (or maybe it is ) but it's my favorite album from him

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

That's a good *** pick

 

[Trey Bantz]

Great pick, MBDTF is also my favorite Kanye album.

 

[HNL HI]

the "movie" he made for it was actually pretty cool. and the grammy performance of runaway was great.

 

[IATT]

any of the 1st 3 and in the order of release >

It makes sense.

Illmatic and It Was Written are both better albums than Reasonable Doubt imo

 

[spacedoodoo]

surprised thats  the first kanye album taken.

[EddieDoyers]

MBDTF was my 2nd favorite Kanye album
But you can argue that was his most complete production in his catalog

 

[stillin729]

Yeezus is most trash album ever

 

[EddieDoyers]

Fair enough. We have different opinions.
