Filthadelphia wrote:Here's the Rules:
-Vote ONE player per poll. You'll be able to change your vote just like last year for those indecisive folks.
-The criteria of ranking the players is YOUR OWN. The whole point of bringing this to the GB is to attract the widest amount of votes/perspectives on the game as possible to form a true consensus. Some people value shooting over defense, team success over indivdual prowess etc. I want to bake all that in to this poll set no matter how chaotic.
-Each poll a player will win and then be taken out of the field. There will be 25 polls in all.
-There are only 10 possible poll options so I will start with the 10 guys who I personally believe will round out the top 10 in most people's eyes.
-As each poll commences I ask you to COMMENT IN THE THREAD your vote for who should be added in the next poll. There will be a large list of players yet to be added to the field below that you can look over to make your vote. I will tally up the votes in the comments at the end of each poll and add the winner accordingly. For example, if you want Marc Gasol added in the next poll just comment "Marc Gasol" or "Gasol".
-If a poll is overwhelmingly skewed towards one guy I will try, time willing, to edit it early and move on to the next one.
-If there is a tie in the poll. There will be a run-off poll created with just the tying parties to determine a winner. The losers of the runoff will then be added back into the field of 10 for the next poll.
-Feel free to ask any questions via pm or comment
-Feel Free to comment on your reasoning for a pick and why

Well if you’re just looking at next season where Oladipo’s gonna come back some time around the start of the New Year and no one knows how heathy he’s gonna be, I think it’s a pretty close comparison. Oladipo definitely has a higher ceiling this year if he comes back on time in great shape, but he could look like Gordon Hayward too.

You have it set to votes being locked in once they're cast. Is that an accident?
Also, something that might surprise people. I think when it comes to athleticism, agility, physical attributes and skill I rate LeBron only in the top 50.

Vucevic, led his team to the playoffs as their star player - that's worth something. Nominate: Trae

How is Oladipo leading this when he won't play until January? And when he comes back, he won't be at his best, obviously. CJ McCollum is every bit of a player as healthy Oladipo, he is easily better right now.

Oladipo is better than at least ten guys already voted on this list. Unless he's scheduled to be out for the season, he should be on by now.

That's a RealGM thing. Pay no attention to that...

How have Middleton, Tobias Harris, and especially Horford not been nominated yet?
