2017 Annual JazzFanz Current Players NBA Draft

[zbone]

[MENTION=22]zbone[/MENTION] you have until the top of the hour to make an actual pick or you are getting skipped.

I made my pick as soon as I woke up, you didn't like it. Now I am at work, got to sort urgent things out and then I can see what's my other option.

As far a I am aware and rules concerned I have at least 5 hours if you are so strict with the rules. You can't have it both ways.

 

[Elizah Huge]

You are a bunch of jealous bad losers.
Fair enough. I will have to research then.

You tried to pick a coach because you didn't research enough to pick an actual player?

You picked a coach in a current players draft.

If you have time to argue about it then you have time to make an actual pick.

I was eyeing him from the start as my last round pick.

What made you think you could draft a coach in a current players draft?

 

[zbone]

Ok, I am surprised he is still available: Demarre Carrol

Could you please stop trying to argue so much? Thanks!

Where the hell have I attacked anybody?

If I disagree with you, that is not an attack on you, it is a disagreement with an opinion.

This is a message board. People post opinions. If I disagree with one of them, am I not allowed to voice that because you might view it as negative? Are we going to have a positive only board? That sounds realistic.

I've complimented picks and teams multiple times in this thread. I've disagreed with opinions on players in this thread. Nowhere have I attacked anybody. Nowhere have I been "mean" to anybody. If you're going to accuse me of that crap, you better be coming with facts and links.

I'm just baffled at the idea of somebody disagreeing being a personal attack. How do you all deal with your bosses when they critique your work?

You're not getting it. It's not always what is said exactly, it's the manner in which you say it, the repetitiveness of it, the tone of it, and the attitude. Like Fish has already said, he's disagreed with Ron Mexico, franklin, stoked, etc, lots of time but it didn't turn negative/nasty. I think it comes down to intention. You can intend to be a smart *** or be condescending or put someone down, is that wrong? I dunno. But it's certainly not nice.

If you're trying to analyze tone on a message board, then you're quite impressive.

You can find me examples, yeah? If it's all I do, there should be plenty.

Hey, while I have you, in the last draft you mentioned that you cleaned my clock in fantasy and I finished last. Would you ever care to address the truth to that?

 

[Coach Ellis]

Who's the biggest *******?

Cy?
JTT?
Me?
Kink?
Someone else?

Depends on what day of the week it is. . .

Could add a couple of other Jazzfanz posters to this list tbh.

Hey [MENTION=631]ONE LOVE[/MENTION], why don't you start a new thread with your response to this so we don't clutter up the draft thread. Thanks.

And I really do think if you're going to accuse me of all of this, you do need to give examples.

Yeah on that I didn't realize you took the team over from Jim_Les - I admit I forgot about that. Having said that,Jim_Les had one of the best team with Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard, etc, and you'd still failed to make the playoffs.


On the nastiness and trying to ruin thing, this is what I wrote about the JTT/Spycam trade last month. It has a lot of what I believe you did in jeopardizing the game:

After the trade JustTheTip (Hantlers) was left with these picks: #29, #32, #33, #36


The question is: Would someone with an average/good mental capacity with an average/good basketball knowledge (who is not mentally disable) think that a team with the #29, #32, #33 and #36 in the All Time draft be able to beat a team that has Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon in the starting lineup?


To me the answer is 'No'. Nobody with average/good mental capacity and basketball knowledge would think that a team with the best player being the #29 pick would be able to beat a team with Hakeem and MJ.


Then you've gotta ask what other motives does JTT have in trading with Spy? Did he really not know that he couldn't beat an MJ/Hakeem combo with the #29 pick being his best player? Or does he have another motive for making the trade? (i.e., messing up the draft, wanting Spycam to win, pissing people off, pissing White Chocolate off, etc).

Then on top of that you kept parading #SpyWins, etc. I mean, it doesn't take a genius to decipher what you tried to do then.

See? There you go again with the repetitiveness - wasn't 1 post enough, you had to make another within the space of 7 minutes?


If you wanted examples, then I've given you already at least 2.

Not to mention the condescending tone with the 'why don't you start a new thread?' crap.


Plenty of examples in just these posts. I'm not going to go back and fish out all the examples, I believe this is enough.

 

[RandyForRubio]

There was nothing condescending there...I'm baffled. This is why I said you shouldn't try to analyze tone from a message board.

I just asked you to start a new thread because I'm assuming people don't want to wade through pages of this bs to see who picked. I was just trying to do a courtesy for the other drafters.

Once I'm able to get to a computer, I'll address all of your issues in a new thread. Fair enough?

LOL .. there's no getting through to you. Don't bother addressing anything, I'll stay out of your way, you stay out of mine, that's all I want.


Life is tough enough to navigate through than trying to make you understand this. Fish is one of the fairest and level headed dude on here BY FAR, he wouldn't have said anything had he not really felt that way. People are affected by it. What you're doing is not wrong, but it's not nice. If you can't understand that then you never will.


I'll just leave it here.

#153 and my pick to take out MIP honors this year;

Thon Maker:

[video=youtube_share;IWE3JjDQXhY]https://youtu.be/IWE3JjDQXhY

"You can quote me, right now," Parker told The Lead prior to yesterday's game against Miami. "Thon Maker's gonna be the best 7-foot player in this league. He's going to be. He's that good."

"Say if, for instance, he was on a team like Philly or one of the teams that's in the low .500s, he'd be averaging 15 and 10, easily, because his skill set is so amazing," Parker added.

"He can shoot the ball, he can put it on the ground, and he's athletic. He has that type of athleticism. Quick first step for his size, agile, great hands, good feel for the game, and it's only going to get better."

 

[RandyForRubio]

Pretty nice pick.
