Real Deal

Ugh. I have most of that conference...no idea what happened there. I'll be back at the house sooner or later, and I'll get that one up for you.

Yeah, the college logos absolutely sucked, compared to the NBA. Like with St. John's, for instance, I couldn't make it any bigger (stretch across the white space) because it looks worse as you increase the size, and to actually tell what the letters were, I'd have to make it extremely small...which would look dumb when next to the large NBA logos. That's the main reason why it took me days.

Southern Cal. All teams are there.

Rajon Rondo. He can defend more than one position on the floor, has quick hands, plays the passing lanes very well, uses angles and keeps his man out of his hot spots. His length causes problems for jumpshooters, and his lateral quickness allows him to keep up with slashers.

I was going to ask you guys what teams you want me to create (like most sites), but I just went ahead and created all 332 of them over the last few days...got to around 100 and realized it was taking me hours, so I just went ahead and kept going. To change, go to your profile, then use the "Edit Profile" button to the top right, scroll down and select your favorite NCAA team (like you would if you were changing your NBA team rep). Just a small thanks for all the work put into the site for years. The option isn't that big of a deal, I guess, but this is the kind of stuff I can offer. Enjoy!

By the way, everyone who reads the topic has to keep in mind that walls are not part of the requirement for the GFX team to fill. Signatures and avatars only (not as difficult or time-consuming, for the most part, and are used on the forums).

A little different if we're talking everything considered. I was under the assumption it was based on who fits better with that particular team of guys you posted. Injuries, overall game considered...it's Lowry. I actually think Curry would be able to run an offense better if he had different teammates, but he hasn't proven it, so I can't really throw that out there.

Basically. I'd take Lowry at this point, assuming I wouldn't know what the rest of my roster looked like.

They were all one guy. You didn't know that? :o The real guy posting behind the monitor is a red-headed Asian named Steve.

It should have been Miami's ball, but LeBron didn't win that jump. He jumped far too early, and normally, the ball goes to the other team because of it. Still, it made up for the jump ball call, since the Heat really had possession (Wade wasn't out of bounds).

KB had to go into Mamba mode to get it done. Oh well.

Okay, really...if they are going to call Hamilton for a hop-step (which is not necessarily a travel), they better start calling travels on LeBron, who gets away with it more than anyone else in NBA history.

Chicago needs Deng, badly.

Norris Cole reminded me of a mini-Wade right there.

Don't forget that the titles of these topics end up on our Twitter.

Wow. LeBron just jumped over Lucas.

LeBron on the break is like Shaq in the post.

No Luol Deng. I don't see how LeBron would be held to anything under 30.

I'm sure he would have more fun than when he had to coach the young, immature versions of LeBron, Wade, and Melo...along with Allen Iverson...winning bronze at the Olympics. But no, not really. At least the immature future superstars were kind of exciting, even in defeat.

How about worst starting five ever, and worst team roster, in any game in NBA history? http://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/200504150LAL.html

The young, crowd favorite, white version of Kobe Bean Bryant? It was Kobe who hit nothing but air on his game-winning attempt against the Jazz his rookie season, the same team Jimmer threw his up against tonight. Whoa.

KEEEMMMMBA. Had a 20/10/11 night, first rookie trip-doub of the season. Didn't matter, of course, because the Bobcats let a terrible offense shoot over 50%.
