All NBA DRAFTING Thread

You realize that he loses all his big man that trade is horrible

 

By looking at your team, I think you did a really good job working with what you had. Your Bench isnt bad but could use some work. Overall, you did a good. Nice job

 

Eyyyy JMC glad to see your still up. How about some good ol' fashion smack talk since we have our roster done? (Don't hurt my feelings)

 

Haha if you want but green hippos really pissed me off the other night lol

 

I'm scared for you because bogut is injury prone playing him 40 minutes is not good he's a big dude they get tired you usually can play guards for that long because they have stamina not a center. The more tired he is the more likely he could get hurt that's how I see it

 

I agree, I may have to lower his minutes and give cousins some center playing time..

That's why I was really reinforcing to get horford or noah so I could play them at the forward and center position but YSL and UBigman would not budge....

 

hey jmc would you consider courtney lee for ariza?

 

I like cousins off the bench because Patterson will spread the floor for pierce and bogut to operate. Crawford coming off the bench is good too he thrives against second units. But Teague and hayward defensively idk if they could slow down a strong back court

 

I love lee I would need a sf in return though

 

you guys think I would be ok with this lineup? Gonna try for a sf but this will have to do.

Derrick Rose/Jordan Crawford/Lee
Marcus Thornton/Jordan Crawford/Lee
Luc Mbah a Moute/Courtney Lee
Kevin Love/Derek Favors/Luc Mbah a Moute
Brook Lopez/Derek Favors

 

Just start Lee at the 3 and bring Luc Richard off the bench as a defensive stopper. I know Love can hit threes, but you want wings who can spread the floor so that a) your two bigs will have room to operate inside and b) Rose will have driving lanes to the basket.

 

Thanks for your input. I was unsure if lee would be able to handle a starting sf role defensively.

 

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Looking at the other SFs, the only guys whose size would really figure to give Lee trouble are James, Durant, Anthony and Granger, and those guys are tough matchups for anybody. There are other guys who are bigger, but most of them aren't terribly dangerous offensively.

 

Those guys are the reason I have Luc Richard

 

I'd add Turkoglu, Luol Deng, Paul Pierce (30 lb heavier), and maybe Gerald Wallace to that list.

 

Where's the love for Gay?

 

Of course he got pissed off, little girls irritate easily.

 

Maybe separate into 8 groups of 3, eliminating one team from each group. Then a bracket, with either random head-to-head matchups or seeds based on which teams got the most votes.

 

Wow i would've loved Thornton.

Nice trade Spooner
