    Out of 8 places. Or will he not finish or be disqualified?

    Participants:

    PB
    Burke
    Lowry
    Schroder
    Knight
    Payton
    Teague
    IThomas


    EDIT- looks like they're doing a bracket this year. Pat faces Thomas first and then plays the winner of Teague/Payton to advance to Final

    You can bet aout $14 to win $1 that he does not win on some online betting sites. I think this is a decent bet since he is not a real PG. I'm a big Bev fan but he is not an elite ball handler/passer and likely has no shot in this. In before eating serious crow when Bev's heart > analytics

    Third, I think Teague and Thomas will finish heigher. Beverley may have troubles with mid-range since we don't shoot them.

    the passing portion will hurt him definitely. in games he has trouble passing into the post player a few feet away.

    No matter where he finishes, I hope he uses protection.

    My favourites are IT and Knight.
    I am most looking forward to see how many tries Payton needs to make a three. Probably over 5.

    he's going to surprise a lot of people. the guys i like in this contest are the ones trying to make a name for themselves. they will go full speed.

    lowry, teague, knight, thomas will all be trying not to get hurt.

    payton, shroder, burke, and PB will be going all out. but of that group, payton and shroder can't shoot.

    i say its bev vs burke in the final.

    Are we sure he's not part of the obstacle course? If not dead last or disqualified.

    These things are a crapshoot. I'm not even going to guess. Could be #1, could be #8.

    Disqualified after bricking the jumpshot so hard the ricochet kills the ballboy.

    Or he refuses to pass unless they replace the passing ring with Harden.

    Disqualified. He forgets that this isnt a rockets game where he just passes the ball to harden so he can win it for him. Morey shows the judges the stats that proves technically this is all within the rules.
