See this is where you're off.... with your little backhanded insults as well.

Marc Gasol is a very good defender, and Boozer is a very good rebounder. I'd take that duo over West/Oka any day of the week.

West/Okafor never clicked as a combo... And they aren't made to 'run' like you're saying.

Tyrus isn't a SF, and neither is Jamison.

I'm not trying to insult you... I think your team is very good, but it just doesn't mesh well.

I actually agree with you.

I would take Gasol and Boozer over West and Oakafor as well. Mags. would be much better off if he started Thomas at Center to go with West.

Jamison is def not a SF either. He is a poor defender at PF, so he would get destroyed at SF. Jamison can shoot the 3, but he is much better when he is grabbing boards and working inside. Your team would be deadly if you can bring off your bench for offense.

— had a miserable summer league
— he flourishes with the ball in his hands so if you have a ball-dominant PG it's not a match
— he is a SG who cannot shoot, he's more of a facilitator/penetrator
— his biggest value is that if you have a roster with shooters (like mine) you can play him at PG where he may excel

i get your points but how can someone who shoots .519 FG .758 FT .364 3PT be a bad shooter?

His overall FG% is high because he attacks the rim as a penetrating SG who handles the rock and is the primary offensive initiator/facilitator.

However, his 3PT% is misleading. The percentage is respectable but he takes very few shots behind the arc. Then you also have to factor in that was the college 3pt line too and the NBA is further out. So putting him further out his range he will take even few 3's and make them at a lower percentage.

Then if you have a roster of postup bigs, his lack of 3pt shooting will allow defenses to sag and he won't spread the floor. It will also mess up his penetration game if a team with low-post bigs has their defender in the lane clogging it. Lastly, if a team has any kind of floor general at PG who doesn't play off the ball or isn't a shooter the backcourt won't mesh. All of this limits your trading parters with him.

No need to. He just emailed me the situation. Good Luck with that deal.

Someone from the 3.0 BAT I think, not sure if he participated in this one.

Yeah, I've been thinking for awhile now of moving TT into the Starting Lineup since I was wishing to Draft him and use Jamison's scoring off the Bench.

Looking to flip Ray Allen for a good PG.

Anyone interested?

Im Coming Home · Post #296 » by **Im Coming Home** » Tue Aug 10, 2010 11:51 pm

So is me and bish's trade accepted? He is not home right now so he has no way to get on the boards to accept, you can email him for proof if you need to do so but I feel the screenie should be enough or atleast I'd hope so.

There are some who haven't been drafted yet do any of them interest you without naming them of course?

I was hoping he would slide to the 6th round lol.

Thanks. Fury was actually the one that pushed real hard for George with this pick. I was waffling between him and a couple other guys but ultimately was too hard to pass on the package/upside Paul George offered. He literally convinced me minutes before we were on the clock. Thinking it over I do like the pick a lot too.

Rich2Hassan · Post #299 » by **Rich2Hassan** » Wed Aug 11, 2010 12:00 am

I was hoping to draft BOTH Okur & Deng with my 5th rounders, but Okur was taken before i selected Deng. Thought Okur would be the perfect 4 to play along side Ducan. Oh well.

I have an idea which one's your talking about but I don't think they'll slip to my pick. I'll just have to wait and see.
