ISH all-time draft thread

[QUOTE=Manny98;14937657]The poll doesn't mean shit, this is the same place that thinks Kevin Garnett is the GOAT nobody takes those idiots seriously and barely anyone voted

Reddit would have been a better choice imo

Honestly never met anyone in real life that uses real GM, bunch of caveman idiots who have never played a competitive sport[/QUOTE]

I do think we should put it on reddit for a larger sample size though I think iamgine still wins. It was honestly over when we let drob fall to him. And we need to reevaluate Curry’s top 10 and top 5 worthiness. A lot of ppl have fixed top 10 lists because they’re afraid they’ll get laughed at for silly basketball opinions that affect their real life 0%

Baffling how many people don't understand the idea of complementary skill sets.

There's a reason why Derrick White got more minutes in the Olympics than Tatum and Haliburton, and a guy like OG Anunoby had insane impact as a role player.

The comments about "yeah but what about these other high usage guys and non-shooters!" are from a misguided place of not understanding basketball.

[QUOTE=j3lademaster;14937681]When they’re at their best, tmac for sure. [I][B][U]Allen gave a more consistent effort though[/U][/B][/I][/QUOTE]

:roll:

[QUOTE=Manny98;14937545]I have the best offensive player of all time and the best shooter of all time, between Dirk,Nash,Shaq and McGrady you have absolutely zero defense in 4 out of 5 in your starting lineup

Jokic would completely dismantle your shit defense every single possession :lol[/QUOTE]


Eh, "i have better defenders" is kind of a difficult take in these H2H match-ups.


Whos stopping Dirk Nash Shaq? Theyre still outscoring you, regardless of their defense being a bit lower than yours.

IMO:

Team 1 and 7 are the best.

Team 3 and 6 are the worst.

Rest inbetween.


I voted Team 7.

A bit lower :oldlol:

He has the worst defence out of everyone

Agreed people just see the big names and thinks that means they have the better team

Sad really I thought Real GM were more intelligent than that

I havnt been trolling when saying this place has higher iq than realGM now.

Kinda crazy how that all worked out.

And its worth nothing, hes still gonna cook his match-up more than you do him.

[QUOTE=SouBeachTalents;14936238]Rules for the draft

1. Only players from 1980 and beyond will be eligible. If you picked a player who peaked in the 70's, you have to use the 80's version of them
2. Jordan & LeBron are not eligible for this draft
3. We're drafting 8 players per team
4. Considering our different time zones, I think 8 hours between picks is fair

This is the order the randomizer provided

Manny98
DJMcDonald
iamgine
SouBeachTalents
AlternativeAcc
dankok8
j3lademaster
1987_Lakers

While I think 6:00 PM EST is more than fair, I'll give Manny a little leeway since this board is from the late 90's and doesn't have PM's, so I can't notify the other posters the draft has started.[/QUOTE]


I dont get it, according to this order and the teams, Mannys team is team 1.

[QUOTE=DJMcDonald;14937685]:roll:[/QUOTE]

You don't think Ray Allen played harder than Tmac on the defensive end? Tmac often times would do just enough to get by, and he was so talented that he was a plus defender doing so. We all saw what he can do when he applies himself, he was able to shut down Dirk in a series where Nowitzski only broke 20 ppg on 35% shooting because he was feasting on Ryan Bowen.

Yea idk why he randomized the numbers on realgm.

I remember in Milwaukee and Seattle he would refuse to fight over screens and constantly ball watch, for the athlete he was, he was a remarkably bad defender. Saying he put effort on that end is more asinine then selecting Caruso in an all time draft. In marquee match ups TMac would guard superstars whereas Allen couldn't give a damn

Curry gets a lot of flack for being a bad defender, but he's a better one than Allen ever was.
