    He is the biggest stat compiler in the league. That's not hyperbole. The biggest.

    Th gap between his production in the box score and his actual contribution to winning is the largest in the league, IMO. That includes Zach Randolph and Stephon Marbury, too.

    He sucks. He'll have a good game or make some difficult shots or get a timely block and you will be like "Oh, man! This guy is better than I thought!"

    Then you'll look at the standings and you'll notice the more he plays, the worse your team gets. That's because he is clueless about team basketball and his role in playing it. It's not a coincidence that such a productive guy keeps getting benched and traded. I'm guessing LeBron threw a party when he left.

    UH OH. Prepare for Denny Crane to take shots at your team because you don't like a player someone else picked!

    Worst team in the draft. Sorry, but that's how I see it. I think that starting line-up could only be as high as an average team in the real NBA (without the benefit of a league-wide fantasy draft). The players you picked went way too high for their value, or aren't starting quality.

    I wonder what you guys think of my team so far


    C BPA
    PF Al Jefferson
    SF Travis Outlaw
    SG J.R Smith
    PG Jose Calderon.



    And if all you have to say is "dumbest team" then keep it to yourself. I need more constructive criticism [​IMG]

    You should draft a smart center.

    Also, nice avatar with a dude rocking an Alonzo Mourning jersey!

    Nice tribute to a player loved by the Nets fan-base.

    Actually I would disagree. Carter is a constant so lets throw that out. I'd take Harris over Miller (although I'll admit that a lot of that<strike> is bias</strike> has to do with taking a younger player and the GM Draft is a one-year thing). And then given the choice of 3 random guys or a team that has to start Posey, Jamison (good player), or Big Ben, I take my chances.

    Tell me that I was wrong how? I never I thought your team was bad or the players were bad pick.

    I like JR Smith. Outlaw I have no feelings on. Outlaw has talent. JR is an offensively talented player.

    Well you think both Outlaw & Smith have low basketball IQ right?.... And I disagree. That's why I said that Ill be watching the players I picked and hopefully prove you wrong. How do you measure basketball IQ anyway? Is there a test nba players take?! Or you just watch the games and say oh yeah, those 2 are just stupidddddddddddddd?! Because if thats how you measure bb IQ then you have no credibility because last time I checked you are not an nba scout and and you are just stating you opinion as a FAN and that is all.





    PS- I changed my avatar, lol I thought it said # 83 not #33. [​IMG]

    There is no objective statistic to measure b-ball IQ, but pleeeeeeeeeeease let's not get into that argument again. I would just like you to answer me this question truthfully, and leave it at that. Do you think JR Smith and Travis Outlaw are smart players?

    There's so much wrong with the last sentence. That was probably one of the stupidest things I've ever seen on this board, and that's saying A LOT.
    So no one's OPINIONS on this board are credible because we are all fans and not NBA scouts?
    Why do we have a GM Draft Peer evaluation thread, then? None of the opinions matter, no one has any credibility, according to you.
    The problem is that many people just post in this thread because they want others to say how good their team is.
    A likely exchanges is, as follows:
    Person 1: What do you think of my team? *posts team*
    Person 2: They look good, nice picking! What do you think of my team? *posts team*
    Person 1: Thanks, you're team is the awesome, too!

    I've never said to you, hey Claud, you're team sucks, you are a GM draft r-tard! I told you what I thought was wrong with your team, and you cried about it.

    Alright:

    C - Andres Biedrins
    PF - Udonis Haslem
    SF - Luol Deng
    SG - KOBE!
    PG - Beno Udrih

    I can't decide if Udrih is a player who helps you win or not, but he's pretty young and he's the 5th starter, so I thought he was a good value at the pick.

    I've got Kobe, so it's a playoff team. I'm just wondering if it's (on its way to) championship worthy.

    I'm disappointed that for someone who likes to search for pics of their players you couldn't find this one.

    wait what was I wrong about, that you shouldn't announce to everyone that you're taking the BPA with your next pick?
