I see Miller as a DLo type PF.

I am debating whether to do separate threads, or maybe just keep it all to one thread. I'll go back and see what we've done previously. I honestly don't have an issue with separating them....we could even split into a "preliminary round" thread and a new one once the tournament starts.

My vote would be for one SL game thread, but I'm totally fine with multiple.

My check-list for SL:
- a Rob-Joan alleyoop
- Clark with 5+ steals game
- a block and three from Rocco in the same game
- a poster dunk from TJ and two 20+ games
- a 20pt game 50/40/90 game from Rob

Multiple is easier to talk about or reference specific performance. But of course it clogs the board, and I doubt there are more than 40-60 posts per game. I really don’t have a preference.

If it’s one thread for all games… Maybe a first post that gets edited and that has links to the page#/post# that marks a new game?

I'm debating whether to indulge myself in pie or whether I should just follow along on Twitter.

It sounds too good to be true. Maybe it's a monthly price, but I didn't see that. It looked like the full season price.

Klomp or anybody, do you clearly recall Zydrunas? Was he pretty similar to Smits or am I not recalling him correctly? Which one was the better player or were they about equal IIRC. The more I think about it I could get behind a Big Z nickname for Rocco because I think that was Zydrunas nickname. Smits was known as the Dunking Dutchman. I still prefer The Donk of Dunk, but it's a little long.

Alright, I've got my two-monitor work setup with pie full screen on one monitor and RealGM on the other, with my phone handy for Twitter....

I remember both of them, but I was pretty young in my NBA fandom. I think Rocco would fall somewhere between them physically/athletically.

Beringer will rack up fouls in Vegas because he's pretty handsy, but what a start!

I've seen all I need to see. Joan will be one of the best rim protectors in the NBA.

Beringer has at least 3 blocks in the first 3 minutes. I can't find a box score.
