    I'm being serious here.....PLEASE explain to me what this is. These are real people? They will actually be playing basketball, or video games? I'm confused how this guy above is a PF and averages 9 rebounds? When and where did he average this and how does he have a position. My son plays 2K, but that's my extent of knowledge of the game. Please explain.

    These are real people that play the NBA 2k video game. In league play (as I understand it), each player controls a single person on their team at a specific position. So, for instance, the guy the Blazers took with their first pick always plays as a center. As such, he is now drafted to control the center for the Blazers Gaming 2K team.

    Thanks man. So these guys will play all at the same time against others? I've just played against my son, but you are a whole team.

    Yeah, that's my understanding, that it will be 10 people playing simultaneously, each one controlling a single player.

    Was going to make a joke that these guys have more followers on Twitter than HCP but he has 1300 followers. WTF?

    That live feed you did the other day was funny. Hearing Brooke say "Rip City on they ass", and then immediately regretting it was gold.

    I barely use Twitter. Probably 95% of that is just seeing what Woj has to say. If this dinosaur ever joined Instagram, you know the youngsters have probably found something better.

    Ouch! Looks like not everyone is convinced of Blazer5Gaming's draft strategy. Though it does seem that they're grading more on reputation than anything else.
