    I still highly doubt that you watched EVERY Rider game that was on TV.

    I'm a college hoops nut dude, I love watching mid-majors and Rider was one of my favorites last year because they had the Thompson brothers, who are pretty cool to watch. I probably watched Rider and St. Mary's the most out of all the mid-majors last year. But if you don't want to believe me, more power to you I guess.

    So you were watching the MAAC tournament instead of watching UNC/Duke and the Big East tournament games at the same time? And then you liked it so much you watched the MAAC semis instead of watching the Big 12 and SEC tourney the next night? You really are a nut!

    I'm a Pac-10 homer, I don't really care for other big conference cuz mid-majors are more fun to watch. I see those teams all year round too with all the coverage ESPN has on them, so when I get a chance to watch smaller conference teams, I take advantage of it. If you want to call me a nut for appreciating the sport and being opened minded, it just shows you don't appreciate the sport as much as me....either that or you are just bitter I proved you wrong :p

    It's ridiculous to question people with "how much have you watched __________" someone isn't it?

    How's it ridiculous asking someone a question? Or wanting to know what their opinions are based off of? A forum is meant for discussion, and then of course you are going to find agreement or disagreement amongst it since everyone has different opinions. Sorry if you want to get offended by a simple question......

    I think it's ridiculous to constantly think that because someone thinks higher of a player or lower than you to say "How much have you watched of ________?"

    If they say they've seen him enough or a lot, what are you going to say? "Oh ok." or "I don't believe you because you think he's better than I do."?

    It's just a generic way to start a discussion if you haven't noticed. Usually when someone uses that, they give their ideas why they asked it afterwards.

    Not when it's asked in a tone that is questioning their credentials for evaluating said player.

    I never meant for it to offend you, it's just something I use to start a discussion. Sorry that you misread it with a tone that I was attacking. Since this is the peer evaluation thread, we'll just say you are right so we don't take up 2 pages of this cuz you won't give up on this. Most the stuff I say is sarcastic and not meant to attack anyone, but apparently it's read as a different "tone" sometimes.

    Isn't that weird? He's been groomed by the Wizards the last two(?) season to develop into a SF. I would imagine he'd have some difficulty being an effective center.

    After Etan Thomas went down he was basically the only backup center on the team. He doesn't play any small forward. Hes strictly a PF/C. Hes 6'11 and 250 lbs.

    Alright my team is done. I'm taking cpaws advise and starting Joel over Collison. I took Davis in the 7th and Walker in the 11th even though I don't like either of them, they were best available at positions I needed (IMO). I'm not really worried about having them on my team because Davis can be a decent 6th man type of player and Walker can be a backup PF/SF that can jack up 2 or 3 threes a game. I'm glad Damon Jones was available in the 12th because I needed another shooter and somone who can play some PG and SG. What do you guys think?

    C: Joel Przybilla / Nick Collison
    PF: Chris Bosh / Sheldon Williams / Antoine Walker
    SF: Richard Jefferson / Ricky Davis
    SG: John Salmons / Thabo Sefolosha / Damon Jones
    PG: Chauncey Billups / Travis Diener

    Blatche is a PF/C. His SF dreams are no more.

    He'd be my starting center if I drafted him

    I like the team and I feel it can have very good chemistry since all 5 starters are all team orientated players. R.J, Bosh and Billups make up a solid core. They each bring a different aspect to the game and each score in different ways. The bench has holes but it brings good energy. This team is solid.
