Best Starting 5 Tourney - Conf. Finals: VOTE NOW!!!

Post by kucoach7 »

The voter turnout for the conference semifinals wasn't great but the votes seem to indicate a clear result. Here are your conference finalists!

Western Conference
Golden State Warriors
Rik Smits C 21.2
Shawn Kemp PF 40.8
Cedric Ceballos SF 30.5
Reggie Lewis SG 24.5
Sam Cassell PG 19.8

VS

Sacramento Kings

Marcus Camby C 20.7
Karl Malone PF 42.4
Tracy McGrady SF 29.8
Stacey Augmon SG 34.6
Antonio Daniels PG 21.2

The Malone-Kemp match-up we've always wanted! The McGrady-Ceballos battle is also great. The real difference to me is at SG. Augmon seems to have a significant advantage here.

Eastern Conference

Milwaukee Bucks
Shaquille O'Neal C 31.4
Terry Catledge PF 22.5
Dominique Wilkins SF 28.8
Jalen Rose SG 31.2
Terrell Brandon PG 20.9

VS

Atlanta Hawks

Rik Smits C 25.8
Antonio McDyess PF 26.5
Grant Hill SF 22.7
Latrell Sprewell SG 26.7
Anfernee Hardaway PG 35.8

This is probably the most interesting match-up we've had so far so everyone better get out and vote!

Malone put up 46 points and 11 rebounds per game on Kemp in that first WCF between us. My gosh. I have no problem losing to someone that OP

Meanwhile, he held Kemp to 23/10 on 45% shooting. Drew an average of over 4 fouls per game on Kemp.

1) You have Malone in this one.
2) Meh, that was an even series. You outscored me by a total of 1 point over the entire series and we each won a road game.

The goal of the game is to outscore your opponent. There is no threshold.

Took on Kemp twice and came out thw conqueror, making the Warriors thw vanquished

In general, 7-4 is too close to call. Presuming a sample of 11 voters ij a larger population of voters, 5-6, 6-5 are as close to 50-50 as possible. When projecting, these are essentially 50-50. 7-4 is one vote from that. We can dig into the math, but in a 30 vote situation where it is truly 50-50, 7-4 can easily arise in a sample of 11, and that is why it is too close to call.
There's no "I" in team, but you can find "Eat me" if you push it too far.

News flash. We've never had all 30 gms participate in a vote once. Take your math and suck it.

Bye, doll :)

That is kind of the point of small sample comment. This is really a 4 way vote, but I think not a 2-way, but the idea is still the same if looking for a majority since any vote can be considered against the field.

That said, let me know when you are sufficiently stretched to receive a private lesson, LA Woman.
