Thompson, George, Conley, Ilyasova, Green are more than capable at lighting it up on any given night with their shooting. Davis and Hibbert are more than capable in the post and have reliable medium range. LeBron chokes, so what? He will set up all other guys, play in-out with Hibbert and that way you'll always have one of my 5+ 3pt beasts open somewhere. I can play pick&roll with Ilyasova, Davis or use screens to get my guys open. George can overpower opposing guards, Ilyasova provides issues for the other team's PF because of his range and agility. My team has world class defenders and ball interceptors, I will grab a sh!tload of steals and blocks leading to transition and easy points. Put Gasol/Favors on Hibbert, how does that hurt me?
i don't get it from basketball sense, but fair enough. i just wish you didn't backtrack a million times, would've saved a ton of time. good luck.
Run PnR with them, Conley and Ilyasova are above average on defense. My team has Bron, George, Hibbert, Green, Davis in addition to cover all spots, I can run a Miami zone with bigger, athletic guys because Bron is playmaker. McGee protects the paint, well, let him guard a way bigger Hibbert. If Hibbert should somehow struggle he dishes it out to Ilyasova, who nets it and at the same time keeps Love in distance from the board. Joe doesn't "school" George, what's your reason for that? Like I said, I can put Bron on Joe because Battier is a complete non-factor on defense and George can more than handle him. Love will struggle because guys like Bron, Ilyasova, George, Green cover the court, can easily switch and contest his outside shots. If he tries to score in the paint I have Hibbert or Davis, McGee is mediocre in the post and won't harm me if I switch.
You supervalue your players :grin: i don't have to list how my offense will go, right? When LeBron sits, who will lead the team? or who will create their own shot? It's a mediocre team without lebron... you can't always depend on one player...
I don't supervalue, unlike some of you I actually took time to do research on all advances stats and match-ups for my guys. Know how many minutes Bron averages these playoffs? 44, I don't need to replace him for a long time. I can always play in/out with Hibbert for a Orlando offense with all my 3pt shooters. Or I pressure you and run a high paced offese with big guards. The names don't sound intimidating, but based on advanced stats and thinking off a real system this team is bonkers.
