If you guys want to bet on Ben not finishing in the top 8, I’ll happily take your money

Odds

I’ll give you 2:1 as long as you put at least $100 on it with the stipulation that if one of us doesn’t pay up they can never play in SAVAGE again.

oooooohh...i like it ben

i havent seen a bet on teams here since i took that bitchass 98s money from him

id like to take you up on that bet(i dont get the rubio pick) but i dont make deals with the devil haha

Rubio is playing about 10 minutes a game in each league.

If you’re game, I’ll definitely bet you that I’ll end up in the top 8. You set the price.

nah that front court is too good...rubio cant do enough damage in 10 mins

ill bet a free team on you finishing top 3 if you want...but thats about all im willing to bet against shaq/zo

I have no idea what I'm doing but here is mine:
Magic / McCollum
Klay / McCollum
Oakley / Henson
Camby / McGee
McAdoo / McGee

Nah, always bet on the field over a podium finish in Savage. Too many variable. I’ll bet a free team on my finish vs your finish? Or anyone else to make things fun.

This whole betting thing has me thinking...anyone can say a team is top __ but putting your money where your mouth is says a lot more.

I’d be curious to see what bets people would make about my team or others

I think I can guess 6 out of the top 10. Anyone want to go against that bet at -240? I name six teams, if all six are in the top 10 then I get paid out +240.

I don’t gamble, but if I did, I’d bet that no matter how well I do, I will be disappointed

I like this team the most of any of my savage teams. Which is weird because I basically have never used Hakeem or Oscar in other contexts. But I feel like it fits together the best of anything I built before.

I was glad to get David West in the 10th. His last three seasons are awesome SF backups (albeit with not a lot of threes); great D and efg%. But more importantly he can provide a backup for Hakeem for the team with no Embiid, and emergency depth in the post on a couple others. Great fit.

He was one of the few players I had in season one who I legitimately enjoyed. He is rad.

This is also the team of mine I have liked those most during the three iterations.

Let’s spice things up around here.

I’ll take that bet, Ben

Aaaaand things are spiced up.

Not sure if I’ll roll with this one, but here’s one idea:

Year/Name	Minutes	POS	USG%	eFG%	ORB%	DRB%	CRB%	AST%	DEF	STL%	BLK%
07 Deron	37.5	PG	23.4	54.4	1.3	8	9.3	34.2	70	1.4	0.5
15 Kawhi	29	SG	25.8	56.5	4.5	17.4	21.9	9.4	90	2.5	1.8
08 Birdman	17.8	SF	13.5	55.1	12.8	20	32.8	2.7	100	2.7	7
77 Walton	24	PF	24.5	52.9	6.3	32.9	39.2	16.7	90	1.2	4.1
90 Admiral	38	C	26.6	55.2	12	23.2	35.2	7.7	100	1.7	5.6
STARTERS	29.26		113.8	54.82	36.9	101.5	138.4	70.7	90	9.5	19

With Dirk and Mike Miller on the bench so that you guys can’t -2 me.

Awesome, you're on!

I love your team, but I think you're making a mistake by trying to make the playoffs in all five. If I had your team I would stack two squads. I think you'd win the whole thing pretty easily.

Good luck!

Actually looks like you might be going with the 2 team model. The bet is still on!
