2022 Annual Jazzfanz All Time NBA Draft

This is why the sim is the way to go. A lot of biased opinions will have the better team lose.

Nothing biased about my evaluation of Thee’s team.

He surrounded Olajuwon with extremely HIGH usage players. That’s a terrible fit in my eyes and even if McGrady wasn’t a traffic cone on defense let’s not act like he was All-Defensive team once in his career. That pairing in the backcourt going up against a lot of the duos on here will get absolutely torn to shreds.
 
Also, Thee is posting highlights of Houston McGrady. If that’s the McGrady he’s choosing then his team is even worse.

If that’s the version he’s not using why the **** is he showing highlights from the version he’s not using to try and make his case.
 
Westbrook
Miller
Kawhi
Garnett
Dwight

I’m working a little out of my comfort zone here. I think that’s probably good. A lot of that comes down to Russ, but I think at a certain point the hate goes too far on him.

The other four are terrific pieces to fit around a wildly productive and athletic lead guard and that’s Russ. The spacing isn’t perfect, but Garnett had about as reliable a long 2 as you’ll find, Russ once had something resembling a jumpshot, and nothing needs to be said about Reggie. There’s also a good amount of thunder getting on the rim with Dwight and Russ (KG and Kawhi being no slouches themselves).

Russ can also step up on defense and is a ballhawk, the latter part being very useful in the context of the strongest defensive front court in the competition (Kawhi, Garnett, Dwight).

I never said he was all nba at defense just above average. He’s not even close to a tragic cone as Kobe how good he is at defense. You must be young and never watched McGrady play. I’m old enough to have watched him play, he was a great player.

I didn’t just post Houston highlights.

Lmao I didn’t pick a Houston year anyway. You talk a lot out your ***.

Nope. Olajuwon fits with pretty much anyone. Why he the Dream. TMac and Harden would play so well off of Hakeem because they know he will get them the ball for amaizing looks. Why else do you think I traded up for Hakeem. Lmao. I was watching basketball probably before you were born son!!
 
When Thee has lost an argument he always resorts to "I watched him play you must be young and never watched him".

You're right, Not really a bias, but voters may penalize him too much for one players defensive woes. McGrady was a respectable defensive player. Harden on the other hand is/was never good, so he may get exploited as you said. (His perimeter defense rating is 72, which is pretty low. McGradys is 82)The offense with his team, on the other hand is pretty elite. His team should have no problem scoring.
 
I am pretty sure some of you start these competitions or join them just to be the old ranting guy who is so impatient about how long someone is taking. I dont know why anyone wants to rush these so much. Its a whole off season of nothing and then you'll be desperate to start another one that will get less participants when you try to do only Jazz, only players under 6', or something really dumb like sandwiches.

Nice story, now shut it

Hey, that's why you run a sim league with the draft picks, make roster changes mid-season if you need to and compete against each other for a couple of seasons.

The downside to sims are that you can just figure out what they are based on. Then you just rank players by whatever that stat is. I think sims only work for current players no former ones like this.

Wish we had a sim league when my magic/ Kareem team lost in the first round. Or when my lebron/ Jokic/ Horford team lost in the first round ( because horford would not work next to Jokic and lebron can’t play the 3). The sim is going to be much smarter than we are.
