Gas’ Case:

n/a

 

[MVP]

I doubt Ellis has enough 3 pt shooting to really compete here...

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It's like Ellis tried to pick the most talented team w/ the least amount of fit.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

And I'd probably start Allen.

Bamba would get absolutely worked physically by Adams in any game, at any point in his rookie year.

 

[Ron Mexico]

Mo Bamba starting is stupid. Like all rookies, he might end up good this year but it's unlikely he will help his team win most of this season. Even if he puts up good stats.

But if I count Nikola as the starter Gas is better. Ellis has no good shooters starting. Rubio is your best shooter. DeRozan, favors and Adams are non threats from 3. Maybe one of them picks up that skill but I wouldn't count on it. Butler shot 35% from 3 last year.

 

[Hekate]

Ellis could have went with someone other than Whiteside, Fave could play the back-up 5 while Prince plays the 4 and Ellis would have much more versatility.

I don't like the teams drafted in this tourney, last years they seemed better.

And yet you voted against my team and in favor of acteam with even less three point shooting then Ellis’s team here, but carry on.

No, I did not. Lillard and Ingles are elite three point shooters. No one on this Ellis team is an elite shooter or close to those two.

Your team was worse and you lost, stop making up excuses and move on. His team was better at 4 of the 5 starting positions, it wasn't really close and the voting accurately reflected that.

No it wasn’t. You idiot!! He had me beat at pg, and that’s it. I have one of the deepest teams in this. I have more offense and defense more 3 shooting and my players fit better, and my bench is ten times better.

Westbrook>Rozier
Mitchell=Oladipo
Roberson<PG
Millsap<Gordon
Jonas=Turner

I’m not sure how anyone can think his team outclasses mine.

Think the talent is spread out more now.

Well I was talking about your matchup with Ellis last round.

But still against Siro you were only better at the SF spot. Maybe Gordon improves and passes up Millsap next year but that's a big maybe.

Obviously most people agree with me that's why the voting wasn't close.

You can keep crying and throwing a tantrum but it won't help you win or suddenly not have a crappy team.

Better luck next year. Maybe try not being an idiot when you draft next year?

 

[Siro]

When I voted the score was 5-1 in favor of Ellis. I was really surprised.
