IP Ranks The Pick-Two Teams By Divison (All Divisions Are Up)

[celticpride07]

Executive decision: With Lamar Odom now ruled mentally incompetent to stand trial, and the Bulls in hindsight being a bit of an iffy proposition, I'm inserting the Pacers into the playoff discussion at the 6 seed, partly because they deserved to make the playoffs, partly because I feel bad about the whole 'coin flip' situation, and partly because SO talks a bunch and it might make my morning a little more amusing. Sorry Nets, you're still out.

so your your'e just going to give them the 6th seed? if anything thing they should be the 8th seed if they were not even a playoff team!

Another stellar decision from commish IP.

And I second that decision.

Congrats StartOrien.

As a GM (who doesn't talk a lot), I believe that another such decision is forthcoming.

On merit alone, The CelticsBlog 2012 Memphis Grizzlies, on the strength of one of the best frontlines (and Healthiest - mind and body), in this game, deserve to be in the playoffs - if only by admittance here in the thread.

No need (or desire), by David Stern or Adam Sterling here to switch teams around - just for Lionel Simmons.

Dude, I just wrote 3,000 words or something on playoff matchups that already happened. I mean...I'm not gonna do that again.

ZOMG! Fake playoffs that don't count for anything and are extraneous  to the actual exercise  and are entirely based on the opinions and whims of one guy are TOTES unfair.

Kinda nailed it. I'm doing this because nobody else is the freakin nuts, and I get bored at work.

You really have no idea. When its busy it sucks but I get downtime...lots of downtime. Think 'Office Space' where if I really hustle I can get 8 hours of 'work' done before 10am.

sorry, KC

FI-NALLY

START ORIEN

It's ok buddy, you need the practice before we make our run through them this summer.

[StartOrien]

So me vs. the Switch in the first round, eh?

Well, around my parts they refer to the Switch by ANOTHER name....  *reviews forum rules & policies* ... they call him... THE DITCH, because he ditches his chances of winning the pick2 draft the second the Pacers were RIGHTFULLY granted their spot in the pick 2 playoffs.

Been lurking for a while, had to jump in here. No way a LeBron team gets swept when no one on the opposing team can stop him from doing whatever he pleases.  Jefferson gets zero help defense from those bigs.

SA definitely takes the series, LeBron takes 1 game by himself, maaaaybe two.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_NBA_Finals

A lot has changed in five years, and while I respect the stats you showed displaying Lebron's - let's say lack of success - I still say he steals a game in this series.

Yeah he's just a more efficent player now, and up against a Spurs team that doesn't have the defensive grit (i.e. Bowen) that it had back then.


A surrounding rotation of Big Z/Sideshow/Gooden/Pavs/Hughes/Gibson/Damon Jones/Eric Snow

vs

Mullens/Landry/Big Baby/Battier/Reddick/S. Brown/Collison/Blake

The two surrounding casts actually seem eerily familiar...like, so familiar that i almost feel some sympathy for Bron Bron again.

Wow - my bad, IP.

I feel like this right now:



TP for your troubles.

I think that Cavs Finals team is significantly better. This is 5 yrs ago Big Z, when he was at his best. A real post-presence, especially defensively. Also, that was Gooden's breakout year (he got paid after that IIRC), and Larry Hughes's last run at respectability.
