    This guy could be Vince Carter, with his skillset. Speaking of underachievers...

    carmelo is such a baby. maybe if someone would guard gordon then you might have had a shot, but the bulls outworked you guys on the glass, too. how is he a baby? Karl said they lost because they didn't respect the Bulls. Carmelo said that simply wasn't the case.

    i'm still laughing at 59.
  4. sneakypower
    Wow, that team tab is epic.

    JR Smith, a taller, less talented version of Ben Gordon, that's why... Hold on a second there, there are few players in the league more talented than J.R. Smith.
  6. sneakypower
    J.R. Smith for Howard Eisley. I still can't figure that one out.

    that's just an asinine rhetorical question. I can't ask if he's seen these guys play? if he had, I'd be interested in what he saw that caused him to view them more harshly than everyone else. how on Earth can you judge a guy based solely on high school stats?? or a guy who was instructed not to throw his best pitch for much of the year.
  8. sneakypower
    I know I'd love having a SS who threw with his left hand.

    But Smoltz and similar players I would argue should be devalued in a keeper league; players that you pick at the top few rounds of the draft should have some potential for keeping. But, I'm also surprised that everyone here is doing 5x5 instead of custom leagues with other categories included.

    how much have you watched Vitters, Samards & Colvin play?
  11. sneakypower
    I'm surprised this league is being drafted no differently than a single-season. I would have expected some of the older guys drafted to be ignored more and overdrafts on some of the future stars, that's the way they've gone in my experience.

    that is a bold statement as he can barely create his own shot, dependent on an all-star distributor to get him the ball in the paint. but he's a fantastic finisher. Playing with Nash makes him better, no doubt. But if you don't think he would be a very good player on any team I think you are crazy. Good thing he didn't say that he wasn't a very good player. He just said he isn't the best player. Not an earth-shattering statement. Acutally what you quoted is saying more than that. A guy who can barely create his own shot and is dependant on someone else to get him the ball in the paint would usually imply that the player isn't very good. Most good players can create their own shots. Well Amare can create his own shot off of rebounds and post-moves. He can't off the dribble, but most bigs can't. He's good, not great. I agree he is a good player. I do think he will get the chance to create more now off of the dribble. I think he will be able to some. ..."good" has to cover an awful lot of ground if Amare is just "good." He's 3rd in the league in PER, first in PER48. but that's quite obviously aided by Nash making the game easier for him. Compare that to Howard who has to work his way into position on the low post and create his own shots much more often without an elite distributor. Amare's an outstanding player but not the best at his position.

    Danny Ferry: awful GM or awfulest GM?
  14. sneakypower
    He's in the middle of a 5 year $65m contract. So he's got 2 years remaining after this season, and probably $26m or so left on it. Getting rid of the offensive black holes Wallace and Duhon will be terrific for the Bulls. Hughes is talented enough to be a starter on a playoff team, neither of the two players they're losing are.

    ewwwww creepy

    if you wanted to know that badly you could just look at the first response.

    Huntington probably likes Byung due to his impressive WHIP, ERC, GB/FB, K/9, K/BB, BB%, VORP, Range Factor, PMR and Zone Rating.

    These plays were all in crucial situations of important games. Nyjer Morgan hasn't played a big game his entire pro career, which is why you're not seeing the attention given it to him as with Mays. I really don't see how Jeter could have stopped himself from going into the stands on that catch, with the momentum he had built up. If so, he's an jackass for intentionally running his face into a solid seat.

    how about using a Spoiler tag next time OMC? what a godawful ghastly sight.
  21. sneakypower
    that's not as impressive as leading 5-0 in the middle of the 2nd and coming away from the game with a measly solitary point.
  22. sneakypower
    you're lucky Brenly didn't catch you doing those experiments.

    I'll admit, I too have got a bad case of Willitis.
