#SLOE: People's Basketball Sim League

Someone's going to get a great package!

I'm gonna give the Nets a puncher's chance at pulling the upset.
Maybe 4 to 1 odds.
They have a very talented squad that really matches strength v strength well with the Bucks.
In order to pull it off they need Fat to outplay Doc and Dale to explode in the scoring column.
If they can score from ...

Last season we saw the division winners jump in after their byes and smack the field.
Will the 2nd round be more competitive this season than it was last?
Do any of the lower seeds have an actual chance at winning a series, or will they just be more respectable in losing?
If they have a chance ...

Meme of the Year was Wig losing his mind about the pace of the draft.


How I feel when everyone reacts to me complaining about the slow-moving draft by saying, "technically, the draft hasn't started yet."

The point of ...

I'm going to challenge the claim of obvious reasons and invite you to check out the real MVP - John Stockton!!
He basically averaged the same amount of points as Michael Jordan.
He was second in the league with 11.7 assists per game, but importantly, led the league with THE Highest assist to ...

I think the Suns/Wolves matchup is going to be entertaining.
I especially like that we're going to see head to head matchups between some of the brightest stars on the respective teams.
Malone v Barkley in the trenches, Stockton v Hardaway on the perimeter, you're not going to see to many clashes ...

I'm going to nominate IamQuailman .
He revamped about 70% of his roster and came back with a team that is arguably stronger than the roster that won the title last season.
I know the Celtics have the best record, and they went on a 20 game win streak to end the season, but that is mostly the product ...

Which 1st round matchup is most exciting?
What can we expect to see in this series?
Why does the underdog have a legitimate chance of winning?
Who are you picking to win, and how will they do it?

Rules: 1 point if you give thoughtful answers, which I will award after the timer ends for responses ...

Best media entry of the year was the All Star PTI.

Trade of the year was Magic to the Spurs.
You know, the one that made people give up before the season started.

I'ma start by shouting out a guy who I signed in the offseason. His contract was matched by the team with his rights, but I knew he was ready to level up, and he did.
Michael Adams is absolutely BALLIN!
Numbers are up - up, across the board.
21 points, 11 assists, 2 steals, 3 rebounds per game and ...

Which players trend towards falling off?
Which players are set to have big playoff performances?

Bullets decline Steve Johnson and Darwin Cook

Are the Spurs still runaway champions?
Far from it.

What is the same, or different from the opening coronation that tells you they will or will not run through everyone who stands in their way?
The thing that hasn't changed since they traded for Magic is their complete lack of depth in the ...

Are the Spurs still runaway champions?
What is the same, or different from the opening coronation that tells you they will or will not run through everyone who stands in their way?
How often do GM's overreact to player motion that looks great on paper?

Who's the MVP in your opinion? Why?
I do want to give context, because it's obvious that Shawn Kemp is more valuable to his team than any other player in the league. However, with regard to how the league hands out the award, and takes winning into account, I think it's a 3 man race with a couple ...

This is an impressive answer for a Town Hall question.

MVP race looks wide open this year.
Who's the MVP in your opinion? Why?
Who will the computer pick?
Will this player do anything spectacular to close the season and separate himself, or does he mostly just need to be consistent?

I'm pretty sure that since I joined the league I'm the only one to be in tax jail and keep playing.
The Scott guy, I think that was his name, set up the Pistons dynasty and walked off.
That was a boss move though.
I didn't really understand jail until I got there.
It was trash, but I think I was ...
