1) Giannis Antetokounmpo - What a piece of basketball crap. He misses way too many threes, he misses too many free throws, he doesn't play enough minutes, he skips around from position to position in different seasons so he causes issues with team building. Pure. Unadulterated. Garbage. What does unadulterated mean?
completely pure
adjective. Something that is unadulterated is completely pure and has had nothing added to it.
2) Shawn Kemp - More garbage. Even in his best seasons he has too many turnovers and fouls too much. Throws your rotations out of whack. I don't even like the way he spells his name. I prefer Sean.
3) Bill Walton - Another totally wasted pick. He only has two seasons that you can call good and neither one of them gets you thirty minutes per game. I heard that he was listed at 6' 11" because he was really over 7' tall, but he thought that anyone over 7' tall was a freak.
4) Jayson Tatum - I don't really like the way he spells his name either. Why do you need the "y" in there? What's wrong with Jason? jcred5, back me up here.
5) Russell Westbrook - Finally, a player I can get on board with. Not really. So he gets some rebounds, half of them were probably his own misses. Too many turnovers, too many missed shots, and at some point in his career he quit making free throws. "I don't want anything that's free, from here on out I will earn those throws!"
6) Tree Rollins - He fouls too much and he is always trying to sleep all the time on team charter flights, which just makes his teammates mad and then they put sugar on his mashed potatoes when he isn't looking. Look, if I don't have anything bad to say about someone I will just make something up. Gotta keep the ball rolling.
7) Alvin Robertson - I have to apologize, but I like this pick. Lately there has been a trend to get guards who can rebound, Clarke, Looney, Vanderbilt, and so on, there's a bunch of them. Actually, they are all forwards who for some cracked up reason are rated 100% at SG. *************, it ****** me off. Back to Alvin. I always liked Alvin better than Simon and Theodore, but they were all fun. Alvin got game. Okay, so Alvin Robertson can play guard (for real *******) and he gets rebounds, he plays defense, he will add some assists, he will get more steals than turnovers. Yet everybody wants Jarrrrrrrred Vanderbilt and Kevon Looney, and nobody wants My Man Godfrey Alvin. All Alvin Gets is hate, just ************* hate. It ain't right. At least Alvin spells his name right. I can't say that about Alvan Adams. Hey, did I mention that I went to the same high school as Alvan Adams. I was there when we won state, going 33-0 in his senior season. When I was a senior we went a very disappointing 15-12. I was talking to Gaylan Yates about it (he was the starting point guard) and he blamed it on the head coach, Jim Koch. He said the coach made them play a system which held them back. The number one team was Southeast High School. They were really good. Anyhow, Gaylan told me that over the Christmas break the team played Southeast somewhere without any coaches, just the two teams playing for fun. Gaylan said that we blew them away. Maybe we had a good team with bad coaching. All the teachers loved Gaylan. I remember one time in 6th grade he got a 99 on a science test and he was mad because Mrs. Sheffler, the science teacher, took off one point for something. Maybe Gaylan was hanging on the rim, I don't know. Anyhow, Mrs. Sheffler was standing right there and Gaylan said "Mrs. Sheffler, you're a pig." She didn't do anything at all. If I had said it I would still be in after school detention. Some years later Gaylan's older brother Carlan was the team doctor for the Oklahoma City Thunder. So one year Dr. Carlan Yates said Tyson Chandler didn't pass the team physical, which meant that Chandler ended up winning a ring in Dallas and the Thunder ended up trading for Kendrick "The Blob" Perkins. Can you imagine the Thunder with Durant, Westbrook (when he could still shoot free throws), Harden, Ibaka, and Tyson Chandler?
8) Josh Smith - I've never used him, and I recently finished running the Savage Baseball draft right so I'm not going to look him up. Josh is a fine player who provides plenty of ________ and ________ for Josh's teams. A welcome addition to any squad! His teams have averaged 43 wins per season and have won three titles.
9) Kyle Korver - Hey, another guy who I like! It's raining threes! Did I ever mention that one time Andre Drummond punched Kyle in the face in the middle of a game?
10) Josh Hart - Okay, this whole eval is going sideways now, I like Hart too. He had a 20, 19 and 10 game for the Knicks last night. Then he ******* at Tom Thibodeau for taking him out of the game, even though the Knicks were up by about thirty points. This guy has more heart than me and Eddy Curry put together.
11) Tom Boerwinkle - When I was younger I used to make up my own Stat-o-Matic basketball teams and then actually play games with them against my other fictitious, made up teams. I kid you not, I made up a guy who was a backup PF/C who was named Tom Boerwinkle. I cannot explain this.
12) Gary Payton II - I would talk about Gary Payton Jr. here, but I believe that has already been done. Every time I see him playing for the Warriors he is always sneaking behind the defense. Cut, pass, dunk, repeat. I wonder why it took him so long to get some playing time in the NBA. They can give James Whitmore Jr. a shot at stardom, but not Gary Payton II?
Batman - Giannis Antetokounmpo
Robin - Sean Kemp (I know, and I'm not gonna change it.)
Alfred - Alvin Robertson
What I like - Cartoons with Alvin the Chipmunk, cartoons with Bullwinkle Moose and Rocket J. Squirrel.
What I am concerned about - my mental heath
Random Midge thought - There were three sons in the Yates family, the oldest was named Alan and he went to Harvard, the middle son was named Carlan and he went to Yale, the third son was named Gaylan and he went to Stanford.
