Eaton’s later years he was definitely not mobile and lumbering, however, in his prime during the early to mid 80’s he had much better movement. Definitely not Gobert type athletic but mobile.

Malone requires a double team during this series. He’s too strong for Gobert to physically handle though his length would be bothersome . The double team creates spacing for Korver and Bell, while Green drives and kicks when necessary. Eaton is obviously a defensive anchor, but he’s capable of...

It’s a good matchup however your lack of defense is glaring. To counter Memo, Malone could go out to him while Big Mark would stay on Big Al. Your starting back court is awesome but Green is no slouch, especially on defense leading the league in steals and averaged more than 8 assists...

That’s why this is interesting because I think you’re underrating the defense too much while not considering the effect a potent offense with ball movement has on a defense when it comes time to play offense.

Well, I’m learning that @Coach Ellis is good at this. Second, there are definitely biases for and against certain players. I’m going up against Donovan and Giannis who are beloved on here, while Kyrie doesn’t get much love. Finally, it’s just a difference of preference on styles. I felt like I...

Should Boone be in the Hall of Fame as a player? He was really good in the ABA and has the second all-time consecutive games played record though I know there is controversy surrounding it.

@Coach Ellis has the number one pick in Giannis which anyone would have a difficult time stopping and then Donovan and SGA on the wing. My strategy against Coach Ellis would be to use my length against Giannis in the post throwing multiple 7+ footers at him, forcing him to pass it out. Donovan...

@gandalfe OTC @Wes Mantooth on deck

Sorry. I forgot to send my picks: Derek Fisher: combo guard, clutch, winner, decent defender, not popular though Felton Spencer (pre-achilles injury): nice defender and rebounder with good field goal percentage

Raja Bell: good defender, good shooter, attitude @gandalfe is OTC @Wes Mantooth is on deck

I figured he didn’t count because he never played a game. There’s a few guys who played though at the end of their careers who were good earlier but with other teams. I just wanted to make sure because it affects how I rank players.

Did anyone watch the show “Kings of Pain”? These two guys went around the world and got stung, bitten, etc by different animals. They did scorpions and one of them was really painful. Are we drafting guys based on their time with the Jazz or taking their entire careers?

I’ve never done one of these Jazz only drafts, but from what I can tell people will vote against my team based on Dantley? Even if my plan was for him to be a primary bench scorer sixth man? I remember when he was traded and all the problems he caused, but I didn’t realize “chemistry issues”...

Yeah, he’s a tough one, but I’m thinking he might be a sixth man. I understand how it could be viewed as a negative.

I wanted Memo to pair with Malone, but you took him.

Big Mark Eaton Named an NBA All-Star in 1989, he was twice voted the NBA Defensive Player of the Year (1985, 1989) and was a five-time member of the NBA All-Defensive Team. Though limited offensively, the 7-foot-4-inch (2.24 m) Eaton became one of the best defensive centers in NBA history. He...

Harrison Barnes Sorry about the wait. Not a sexy pick but kind of what I need.
