Your opinion about this game doesn't matter because you cared so little about playing you couldn't make two picks. Why should anyone who actually wants to play listen to you?

F to mods who curse at members. lol Dynasty asked me how I thought he was doing, so I responded. jerseycarter was getting hated on for his pick, I just gave him advice (which pegs agreed on one part) and said it`s not that big of a deal even though some people get all wrapped up in it and will hate people for it. It`s just a game. Get over it.

Build your team however you want it, this is supposed to be fun. </div> Yea, Dark is right. Just build it how you want to and have fun. It would be different if you were an GM, but you can think of yourself as the owner and GM. lol You could make a team of your favorite 12th men, which would be spectacular! and who cares. If you wanted to you could have drafted say Dwight or Kobe and then traded them for Vince + a decent pick. </div> Yeah, that woulda been a good idea. Look at what lukewarmplay did: moved down 10 picks, and still got a player he wanted. Plus, he got to move up in 2 different rounds. Take this as a lesson in strategy, jerseycarter </div> Oh, man, I hope you're not using what I did as an example in sound strategy. I maybe didn't want to draft Lebron, but after seeing some of the later trades, I realize I pretty much just gave that pick away.

I forgot we were going with a 6 hour limit when I edited the thread. Not that easy to keep track of things while dealing with four boys 10 and under.

Butler had an eFG% of 51%. In the last 5 minutes of fourth quarters, per 48 min, Wallace averaged 17 points. Butler averaged 38 points. The difference is striking. Butler is up there with Melo (actually a little better than Melo) in terms of performance at the end of games, in crunch time. He is much more efficient at the end of games than Wallace is, and as a result, there is a MUCH better chance something good will happen if the ball is in his hands at that juncture of the contest than if the ball was in Wallace's hands. And it terms of overall team play, when Wallace was on the floor in the last 5 minutes of a game, the Bobcats averaged, per 48 min, 106 points. They gave up 108 points. The Wizards on the other hand, averaged 113 points, while giving up only 104 when Butler was on the floor in the closing minutes. Butler also does not turn the ball over as much at the end of games, though it's not something either of them excel at particularly. Wallace in cruch time | Butler in cruch time That is why Butler is a first round pick.

It's a nice way to measure a player's value because they delve deeper than just plain points, rebs, asts, etc.
T-Mac is a better player than Butler, but the gap is closer than many think. I still think picking T-Mac and making him the franchise player is a fruitless effort. That's why I picked Deron Williams.
