But your case is worth thinking about; we really should have a 'hindsight voting'.

I understand the essence of the exercise is to get us through the summer, but I'd really love to see this actually executed. Because right now you're really not rewarded for 'potential.' You're better off selecting the Antawn Jamison's of the world.

It'd be cool to do a mid season and end of seasons re ballot or awards, to reward the teams who had the foresight to see breakout stars like James Harden.


Yeah, who did that?

2010 World Champion, StartOrien.

A year too early, bro.

2011 World Champion, StartOrien.

I am the LeBron James (before this season) of the CB Draft.

And I, the Michael Jordan

You're the Chauncey Billups. Somehow he fell into a title, and nobody really knows how it happened, or how to replicate it.

Maybe Karl Malone's MVP is more applicable. Everyone was sick of giving the win to Roy, and on paper my team was acceptable enough?

Pick 2 Draft doesn't have a winner. Or, put another way, we're all winners.

So you're 2/3 the way there.

Years removed everyone accepts it as a gigantic oversight.

Got a little caught up in moment. The moment, of course, being Baron Davis.

Baron Davis is a dynamic scoring threat and playmaker when he's engaged, you guys.

It's the 2k factor. When you're in control of Baron Davis, you can use turbo whenever you'd like and make sure he doesn't shoot 6 3's a game. So he becomes a 'you gotta put him in the right situation' kind of guy, and not just 'fat'

I'm sure the wrestling references didn't help.

No, I think we just need a set date to get our momentum back.

We're now at twenty-three managers and that guy RebusRankin has been hanging around. Not bad given that there's been no real pitch yet and no attempt to explain this to newer forum members.
