My High IQ Mount Rushmore.

Cheesy name, could pick lots of different teams but Steve Nash is default.

Nice graphic although I would probably swap Nash with Stockon as the latter played much better defense. Jordan is flip flopping like Dwight in his choice. The guy has a limp dick. Real men make decisive decisions. Not sure how the Cavs can acquire Joe Johnson and his monster salary (23 mil) for this year. I like the West pickup as its depth and toughness to the Spurs. Summer league has started:)) Super Mario looks good
 
That whole situation was kinda of weird, people saying DeAndre was bad mouthing the whole Clippers situation then he changes his mind and declares love. Rumors of a bad lockeroom on the Clippers been around for ages, I now think they are most likely true.

Spurs might get Ray McCallum to be the backup guard, he is good enough and if they get one more guard/wing that can shoot they will be pretty much covered.

One last thing, its pissing me off how many people think the Warriors would 100% lose to a full Cavs team. Ifs are ridiculous and if you really think about it, teams that gave trouble to the Warriors had tremendous defenders, I mean tremendous.
It was those two games against the Grizzlies and the whole series versus the Cavs. Cavs and Grizz had 4-5 defense specialists most of the time and smothering every Warriors pick and roll and sticking on every shooter, but guess what that killed both teams offense, all Cavs had was LeBron offense.
If Love and Kyrie were healthy it changes the whole scene, imagine a pick and roll involving both guys is Kyrie as sticky as Dellavedova and Love as mobile as Tristan? Team sports are action/reaction games and Warriors proved they were the most flexible team last season they can react to pretty much everything and they are the deserving champs.

Sorry for the rant, I know none of you actually said something like this, but reading all these NBA news there is always some troll saying Warriors got lucky.
 
Last night's emoji comedy was fun.

I'm not sure what word to use to describe DeAndre Jordan but childish would be one.

He doesn't even have the decency to tell the Mavs face to face or answer their many calls and texts that he's changed his mind - Pathetic.

Dirk left all that money on the table for what?!

Having said all of that, it opens up another playoff spot for PHX.

:SMUG:

Sucks for the Mavs. They are defn lottery bound now. Clips are once again a top 5 team in the West but I still put GS, SA, OKL, and maybe HOU above them. Something needs to be done fix the moratorium period though. Obvs, it has a purpose (to set the cap since max contracts are based on % of the cap).
 
Euro Ball has been renewed for year 5.:) Like always you must select one keeper. The rest of your players go into the draft pool. Draft order is based on last seasons final results. Worst record gets first pick and so on and so forth

Draft Order is as follows:

1. Drekkard Trotters
2. Banner Park Condors
3. ss4_goku
4. OP Sports All Stars
5. Suns of Anarchy
6. Morganettes
7. Review's Stars
8. GS Dubs
 
Haha I always get the first pick... Saddenly, I won't be able to put the time on it, I'm very busy on the day-to-day and at some time I won't be able to catch up and leave my team unattended, and it wouldn't be fair for you guys.

No worries. I'll give your team to someone else this year and transfer it back to you if you want to return next season. Cheers
 
I'll be back, sorry for the delay.

Not sure how involved I'll be this year, but if I make a good draft I'm good to go.

Go Warriors, lets get this back to back!
 
I'm in as well if you can give me a link. I feel like I'm finally at a point in following the NBA where I can make a competetent team.
 
I have assigned the following keepers for round 13. Everyone else goes back into the draft pool. Draft day and time is also set

3. Carmelo Anthony  (NY - SF,PF) Banner Park ...
4. Stephen Curry  (GS - PG,SG) ss4_goku
5. Chris Paul  (LAC - PG) Suns of Anarchy
6. Kevin Durant  (OKC - SF,PF) Morganettes
7. Anthony Davis  (NO - PF,C) Review's Stars
8. James Harden  (Hou - SG,SF) GS Dubs
 
Fantasy Draft in two days. Can't wait for the NBA to begin. Last years regular season and playoffs was the best in years and I have feeling this year is going to be even better.
 
So, this is the team that will reclaim the title:

Morganettes
Kyrie Irving | Mike Conley | Brandon Knight
Klay Thompson | Dwayne Wade
Kevin Durant | Chandler Parsons
Al Horford | Jabari Parker
Dwight Howard | Marcin Gortat | Roy Hibbert | Tyson Chandler
 
I don't like my team, but being the champ I got the rejects

Lillard | Dragic | Hill
Harden | Mamba
Draymond | T.Harris | W.Chandler
Aldridge | Favors | M.Leonard
M.Gasol | KAT
 
Harden, Curry, LeBron, Davis, Gasol Voted By GMs As Best At Each Position

If NBA general managers could collectively decide upon a starting five, it would begin with LeBron James at small forward.

James is the pick at small forward by 89.3 percent of GMs, ahead of Kevin Durant at 8.9 percent and Kawhi Leonard at 1.8 percent.

James also received 7.1 percent of the vote at power forward, but it was Anthony Davis with the most at 82.1 percent. Blake Griffin also received 7.1 percent of the vote.

At shooting guard, James Harden was the choice of 79.3 percent of GMs, ahead of Klay Thompson with 10.3 percent.

Marc Gasol was voted best center in the NBA with 65.5 percent, ahead of DeMarcus Cousins at 13.8 percent.

Finally, Stephen Curry received 55.2 percent of the vote for the best point guard, ahead of Chris Paul at 24.1 percent and Russell Westbrook at 17.2 percent.

Curry, Harden, James, Davis and Gasol were also First Team All-NBA selections last season.

It's that time of the year again when the free trial begins, I consider it but then remember it's still run by the same incompetent company.

The company who designed a system where in order to cancel the free trial you can't log into your account (that requires common sense), you have to email them. This email will probably include harsh tones because they've already charged you.

Idiots.

I need my NBA fix and don't have BT Sport, send assistance.
 
Ballstreams is easily better than League Pass and by far better than BT Sport in my opinion. Certainly worth the money.
 
My ISP says "no" and I can't be bothered with VPN's etc.

Here's another rant, why does the PS3 have the NBA Gametime app but the PS4 doesn't (in the UK and probably the rest of Europe)?
 
Works fine for me without doing anything. My third season with them and no complaints.
 
Anyone watching the Thunder game?

KD hitting the three, Oladipo hitting the three and then Westbrook half court shot hitting the three to tie the game. Thunder trailed 18 points and now it's OT.

Wow
