Is Your Pick Two Team Better than When it Started?

[PLamb]

I just took over Atlanta:

C: Chris Anderson
PF: Jason Thompson / Ryan Anderson
SF: Josh Smith
SG: Joe Johnson
PG: Gilbert Arenas

Can someone explain to me the difference between this game and the CB draft over the summer? I know that 2 real team keepers were involved but that's it.

Only players signed in NBA or ala Rubio
cap matters a little
unless youre new york
people will check overall performance and future
not only championship
It will be made thinking in this years performance of peopl


P.S. TO ALL


I will pay a for another 5th rounder a 6th rounder and 2 9th rounders if my player is still available
I am looking for a top 5 pick this round to start

thanks

But there's no competition

This is just for fun, right

The only thing anyone should be measuring their team against is their real team

There's no winners or losers here, right

PG Tony Parker
SG Leandro Barbosa
SF: Matrix
PF: Anthony Randoplh
Center: Tim Duncan

6th Man: Jarret Jack (can see time at either one or two depending on matchup)

Still need some more big bodies obviously but a pretty good six man rotation to start in my humble opinion

Real Spurs are better.  Backcourt is to small.  PF is to inexperienced.  

Should be trying to win now with Duncan.

You must be a big Ginobli fan.

No.  I would just want to see a SG sized SG next to Parker.  Not a PG sized SG.


And I would want a more experienced big man next to Duncan.

So your saying I should get Ratliff? There is still plenty of time to get a player of Ratliffs skillset (although finding someone that is 36 might prove challenging). The other big bodies on the spurs are Mcdyess (averaging 6 points and 5 boards this year), Blair and Bonner. I would very respectfully disagree if you thought blair was better then randolph. I also think there is plenty of time to find a guy of Ratliff or Mcdyess skill level right now in the draft. This begs the question of how the team is worse then the real spurs....

Impact is more thatn stats

MCDyess was huuuge without putting that big..numbers
DEjuan blair looked like a rookie, as usual people overrate stats

I'm looking to put my stamp on this team. Accepting offers for everyone

C: Chris Anderson

P.S. - do contracts need to match in this game?

Im not saying McDyess is garbage, I just think there are still bigs available in the draft that can have as big an impact as him.

I'd like to see you go small and play Shawn Marion at the four and play a running game or commit to acquiring a stronger defensive minded big to play alongside Tim Duncan (to get Timmy some real help).

I'm a big fan of Anthony Randolph's potential but he isn't much of a player at the moment. In that role, with that level of quality around him, it's not going to be successful. The Spurs wouldn't be a title contender and they'd end up wasting Duncan's best remaining years trying to develop Randolph. The bridge to the future costs the team it's present tense.

The new LA Pigs.


PG  Foye
SG  Kobe
SF  Turk
PF  Gasol
C   Gortat


Bench

SG/PG  Redick  (He works as a PG in the Triangle offense much like a Ron Harper.  Kobe and Turk are the true PGs)


Offensively, the team is strong.  The next couple of roll players need to bring the defense.  

No one wants to comment?

It's very good. I just don't like Randy Foye.

Why not?  As a starter, he has been averaging 14.4 pts, 4.4 assists, while shooting 45% from the field and 36% from downtown.  

And on the Pigs, he doesn't have to worry about running the offense.  Kobe will.

Streaky scorer, poor defender who isn't quite a point and isn't quite a 2.

He is a good defender at the PG spot (where he will play with the Pigs)

And, as the 4th option on offense, he is a good offensive player.

I agree, I don't like Randy Foye as the starting point guard either. Bad defender, needs a lot of the ball offensively and isn't good enough to make good use of it. I'd rather see you start JJ Redick at the point.

Not a big fan of the Hedo Turkoglu selection either. I love his passing/playmaking ability but I don't think he'll get much of an opportunity to use that within the Triangle (low number of PnRs) and while playing alongside Kobe Bryant. Especially after Gasol + Foye eat up another chunk of possessions. Turkoglu is still a good player and will have a good impact on this Lakers team because of offensive quality but he's not a difference maker. A very good role player versus the game changer he was in Orlando.

I think you'd be better off looking for a pure scorer as the third scoring option alongside Pau and Kobe. Rather than a playmaker. And a better defender + complementary offensive player at the point (Redick would be okay).

I love the Kobe + Pau + Gasol trio. And Hedo is useful just not an impact player.

lol...Paul Pierce will be financing the Bulls budget with his salary for 09-10.....crafty gm-ing KC...Jeremy Jacobs would love you

Hello? 2010 free agent class? Why yes we do have a buttload of money waiting for you in Chicago. Come on over and pick it up!

I dont know if this team is much better than the current Bulls. Very soft team.  When Noah is your only big man, you're in serious trouble

A) Jeff Green is the starting Power forward for a team that is going to make the playoffs this year. He gives use much better floor balance and offensive abilities than Okafor did.

B) Only one member of my team is under 6-8 and that's Rose.

C) Danilio may be a little soft, but I haven't heard anyone say that about Green, Batum or Rose.

D) This team is built for the future, so even if you don't love them now, you have to love them for the future.

[Evantime34]

My team is most certainly better. More injury prone? yes. Older? You betcha. Just about as expensive? probably. However, when healthy we have the talent to compete for a championship, this is something the old Wizards could not say

c-Chandler/Thabeet
pf-Ak-47
sf-Vince Carter
sg-Manu
pg-Steve Nash

Don't worry there is still some talent to be had to step in and helpd with an injury.

[KCattheStripe]

Any thoughts on the new look Bulls?

PG: Rose
SG: Batum
SF: Gallinari
PF: Jeff Green
C: Joakim Noah

6th man: Al Thornton


I think we're primed to compete alongside Cleveland and the Bucks for the next decade.
