Official NBA Thread 2k9-2k10 "Fantasy B-Ball & regular NBA talk"

I thought it was Dwyane. Seriously though, either version is wrong. It feels weird to type such an obvious spelling/grammatical error, doesn’t it?

I really like this team, for reasons more than just that my favorite player is on it. However, since I’m not sure about ESPN position settings, isn’t Emeka the only one who can play C? I really like this team for 3s and depending on how Charlie V feels any given week this team could be very strong in REBs.

Will this team get much PT? I sense some great FT% but not so much FG%. I truly think this team will hardly turn the ball over. But, isn’t Bass a third string C?

I like this team even though this team plays no defense after Billups basically, but who cares about that for fantasy? Thompson, many feel, will have a breakout season, if he does better than average, and you get rid of Danilo, I think you’ll win Lothar.

I heard Randolph is going to average 46ppg, 23 rpg and 11 bpg.

The most average team I’ve come across out of the rosters listed. Hibbert…need to get rid of him imo. What exactly do you expect to get from G Hill this year? I predict your team will be middle of the pack and one week you’ll love Bodyguard, one week you won’t. Then you’ll realize you love him when u a) come across the video he did with Steve Nash, or b) the offseason comes.

So, wait you were active after Bosh? You went big/big? I don’t understand why not get a higher tier PG after Bosh?

I love this team for rebounds and possibly points but dont expect you to win assists except for the 2 weeks where Sessions decides to average 18apg.

Also, I bet you drop Foye once you realize hes getting more PT than you think and hes ruining your FG! (actually maybe not)

Quite the solid team here, FG/FT covered very well and as long as everyone stays out of trouble, I’d say a top 3 finish with Lothar/VS.

But…

Is K-mart Kenyon Martin?
Is WWW, Delonte?

oh baby, can you ever lose FT%? I have some feeling Duhon will get traded mid season though and you’ll get next to nothing out of your last 3 picks and will rely too heavily on the King.

Team sucks, all will be injured by week 9.

I wonder if its possible for bynum and gasol to both average 20/10 with kobe averaging another 25~ or so PPG.

It would go down as the most epic team in history.

PBalla: Marvin Williams put up those no last year as a starter/bench player. He does basically whatever is needed. D’Antoni loves Chandler and he will be their starting SF. Bass is really their center for all intensive purposes. I did kind of punt FG pct though to help out with other stats.

maybe I’m confused, I thought Bass plays 3rd to Gortat/D12, no?

Those last 3 picks are like in the last 13 picks in the draft (147-160), so there’s not a lot of talent left. Besides, my eyes are peeled for breakout guys in the waiver wire, and there will be a lot of adjustment with trades. But I kinda like my current team right now. I’ll know my weaknesses during the regular season and fix them.

Picking back-to-backs in a 16-team league is certainly not fun. Me and Jae have been waiting like forever before we get to pick again. Plus you have to reach on certain players because most likely you would never get the chance to get them if you wait. I know Clint felt the same way.

The way Bynum’s playing this preseason, I think they can. Its certainly a reach, but it is possible. The kid’s showing a lot of potential, he even said its his goal to be an all-star this season.

Well idk it depends on how Orlando does their team, they said they want to go bigger. If he doesn’t get much playing time I can just dump him. He was my last pick anyway. It could even work out he starts at PF with Rashard moving back up to SF.

Yeah Kim is right, that shit took forever in drafting lol. It is all good though, I have no real complaints besides VS rigging the league.

I didn’t come back after Garnett. I’m not too happy with the Garnett pick since he’s in a bit of a decline and playing in a stacked team. I think my team is hit or miss. We’ll see.

You get your 15ppg from him for the 10 games that Lewis is out and then you get rid of him. Good times.

The real K-Mart is the one who would win in a fight. When Kevin Martin can beat Kenyon Martin then he can have that nickname. Since that’ll never happen in a million years well you know the rest.

For some reason Gundy doesn’t like Gortat and Dwight on the floor together, so yea Shard is going to go back to his natural position SF and Bass will be starting at PF.

Yeah it is, why is it only 19?

The game limits are gone, they didn’t really work anyway. I’ve set it to limit player acquisitions. One per day pretty much.

Is that fine with everyone?

And I didn’t rig the league! Ckrazy offered that trade to ME. Stupid karma making it look like I rigged it.

Pballa, Scola can play Center this year.

EDIT - remember to use the trading block to make offering trades easier. Also remember to putyour guys who are out on the IR. I didn’t know so many people had players who were out and needed FAs. Now I feel lame for giving ckrazy free players when I should have just given him my last 2 draft picks in the trade.

Oh well, no more free players or rigging will be given. Just tell me if you think anything is shady and I will try to fix it. Aside from my obvious league rigging. ALL ACCORDING TO PLAN.

I just wanna know when the new basketball shoe commercials will hit TV, cause that’s when you know its really basketball season.

Nike better bring back The LeBrons this year.

Will trade Kobe for food.

T.J. Ford
Dwyane Wade
Jeff Green
Troy Murphy
Zydrunas Ilgauskas
Blake Griffin
Anthony Parker
Elton Brand
Ben Gordon
Tayshaun Prince

Missed the first 45 minutes of draft and this is what i ended up with. I need a center.

I like how people were telling each other to hurry up. Is 90 seconds really that long?

Yes, when you consider you had like 7 minutes beforehand to plan out your picks.

Yes. When you pick back-to-back in a 16-team league you will know.

Fuck planning picks.

Excellent.
