I won't get suspended as I've avoided the vote. I am so sly 8-)


I almost put a vote in for Slam. I like...

Voting is the part of draft I struggle the most. So I took a lazy way out.

Jmac - I think you didn't get any votes because there isn't a starter 1 through 5 that would stop 80% of their opposing numbers. There isn't a single player there that would be considered a top defensive player at their position.

This place is insufferable.

You will never post on this board again - and even though you gave Fats 2 votes, there is NOTHING he can do to save you.

1st = Sachmo - As what you've said, aged but not done. I believe your team is poised for one final push for the championship.

2nd = Fred - CP3 - Horford/Bogut combination is going to be nasty. A very well-balanced team.

3rd = Kimu Taku - I'm not a fan of Billups (except when he's in Mr. Bigshot mode) but the Durant-Smith-Gasol trio will cause trouble for most of the teams here.

I really had a hard time picking for the 3rd place. It was a toss-up between Kimu Taku and Slam. Slam has better starters but I think Takuya has a better bench and four of his players have championship experiences which I think is enough to lead his team into the finals.

No offense,but Jaruff has Gilbert Arenas playing 34minutes,Mayo or Arenas at SF for >10 minutes,Amir/Amare/Brand at SF for ~6 minutes and Brand at C for 20 minutes,I can't even believe some guys voted him first.

Yes, but he'll have won, and the trophy is the best company.

wow.... by my count we have a 3 way tie for 1st place. can someone double check my numbers.

Sachmo - 18
Fred - 18
Ian - 18
Jaruff - 9
Takuya - 8
Countryboi - 7
Fat - 4
Slam - 3
Stun - 1

* Crunk voted for both Slam and Fred for 3rd place. I gave them both 1 pt. However, considering Fred is involved in a 3-way tie for 1st I am going to ask Crunk to pick either Slam or Fred for 3rd.

** Assuming the vote stands, how should we do the tiebreaker? Should we let outsiders vote? Thoughts?

If I had to vote between the three, it's a really tough call between Sachmo and Fred. Looking at the lineups and how they work together, I'd probably go with Fred barely getting the win.

I would have McGee playing 30 minutes a game at the center. Lopez 18 minutes at Center and let him log the rest at PF. I think people are too stuck on defense, You do not have to have great individual defenders if you play good team defense. I just do not think my team would of been better starting Tony Allen at the SG compared to Derozan in the end. Derozan is a much more capable scorer and I think I would have the advantage at that position with Derozan if I were to play a team with Allen at the guard spot.

Go ahead and give the tie breaker to Fred I guess.

I assumed he'd be fired midseason and Beasley would start the 3.

At any rate, I don't think anybody considered these teams actually playing one another. Some of these teams would get clobbered against some of the other teams that aren't necessarily in the top 3.

I think I just settled it, unless the voters come in and change things.

But if we were to do that, I'd rather a poll with all the teams if possible.

no, you kept it tied. i already gave 1pt to both slam and fred based on your vote for 3rd place. you changed your vote to fred only which kept fred tied with both sachmo and ian, but reduced slam from 3 pts to 2 pts ................ and got you suspended by slam ;)

we still have a 3-way tie.

Then I give my vote back to slam, take my vote back from Ian and Sachmo, and give them to you and doc/lamar.

So

Slam
Fats
Doc/Lamar

Alls well in the world.
