On the one hand, there are some strong All NBA First guys like with strong franchises like Paul George with Boston, but it would be annoying that a guy like Joakim Noah won't be available to pair with a GS Warrior.

Think we should stick with the rules as is. It can be dangerous to change after people have already signed up - no guarantee everyone will notice.

Yeah. I'll add that I actually prefer the rules the way they are anyway. We're at the point where we should probably roll with 9. I don't think we should drag Ness into this if he doesn't want to play just to get a nice round number. :lol:

He didn't sound like he was all that happy about it though. :lol:

I'm not really sure how to interpret MadNess' comment actually. He said he didn't want to, but maybe he wants to now :lol:

Eh. He said he'd play. I guess just go with that. He can speak for himself.

I'll include him. He can drop if we wants. Other way around (randomizing him in) is less convenient.

If I’m honest that probably wasn’t the best pick in terms of odds to win, but I love those two guys.

Trying to just go on feel with these more.
