LCA, sorry tizzle buy you blew it... Spooner, love DAT bench though redN... Jamers, big red don't ever draft Kobe, it's auto loss around here... VoA, just a bad matchup ftw
LCA > Tizzle, determined by star power and defense. However, as noted by Tizzle, LCA could use some more spacing. Spooner > RedNation, this was the toughest to pick, went with Spooner due to Lance, Cousins, and to some extent Melo being potential headcases. Also should've picked up another shooter as opposed to Black AND Dmo, that frontcourt is a bit congested. VoA > FTW, Harden and Kawhi are too damn good with all other matchups relatively even. JMC > BigMaloe, my only concern for JMC is the lack of a true backup center when Hibbert doesn't show up, especially against Dwight.
LCA slightly. I think both teams are belt similarly, but Spooner's team is just a bit better . Spooner, really like the way his team is built, lacks for nothing on offense, good shooters, great attacker, good post scoring. I think it would be a really good matchup, as Boogie and Melo would put up a lot of points, but I think Wade + Iggy vs the shakiness of Stephenson + Melo would make Spooner come out on top. Jamers. Both have very talented teams, but I just think James just matches up well with BiggRedd. There are good defenders at every position where Bigg is strong on O. VoA slightly. It would be a good matchup, but IMO Harden, Leonard >>> Monta, Pierce, which would be a huge advantage for Aus. Al Jefferson will make FTW keep them honest on O, and Parker is the perfect player to do some ball handling distributing and make sure Harden doesn't go excessive ISO ball. To be fair, FTW has a very well built team and Duncan/Millsaps would feast no doubt, but I think VOA gets the edge. JMC, also slightly. BigMaloe has a good team, but JMC's team is just so long, lengthy, and athletic, and so good on defense. They almost remind me of that one AAU team that presses the whole and scores a ton in transition in every tournament.
There were some anomalies in the voting process and it seems LCA received votes that were originally intended to go my way. This is a terrible tragedy and as a dedicated commissioner I did everything possible to adress this situation accordingly and with transparency. So for Basketall reasons, the LCA votes will go to my team, which now has 5-0 votes and goes to the next round. Signed, your beloved commissioner. David Tizzleton
because i like tizzle (brehs for-evah) and LCA already won, ill still vote. TIZZLE!!! spooner voa jmc
Wondering how my spacing is an issue? Derozan and curry are obviously outside shooters, greek freak can do anything he wants, griffin can play high-low, and chandeliieeer can rome the paint. but if it is something I am not seeing, please educate me! Love my brehs Tizzle, I was scared walking into the battle with you, but I was not scared of the wolves.
DeRozan is 25 3pt% on 0.3 3pts made per game. Not really outside shooter. Giannis is 15.4 3pt% on 0.1 makes per game.
