hahahahahaha you're the best Cope. I wish I understood what you were going for here, but I don't need to. I'm fine leaving this to the imagination

tbh I am having issues picturing your perimeter rotation yet - still post selection work to do at the 3 I guess?

None of these guys will start at the 2 either. I'm fine leaving that to the imagination as well

there is a plummeting meteor streaking across the horizon?

fixed cap draft leagues are not so much about basketball as they are about market economics: discuss

I mean this is a math game with a basketball gloss

I've always been dodgy at math.

I have always been very mathy about dodge - '6 of one' {shrug}

You have too much time on your hands, you silly monkey.

this is irrefutable

Going with a 6-man lineup

1. 02-03 Kevin Garnett
2. 94-95 Scottie Pippen
3. 68-69 Bill Russell
4. 88-89 Mark Price
5. 99-00 Gary Payton
6. 96-97 Anthony Mason

Total: 18,992 minutes... Will use scrubs to mop up the few remaining minutes, but I'll only be giving minutes to these 6 guys under regular circumstances.

PG: Gary Payton / Mark Price
SG: Scottie Pippen / Gary Payton
SF: Kevin Garnett / Scottie Pippen
PF: Anthony Mason / Bill Russell
C: Bill Russell / Kevin Garnett

I've done the math on my six lineups...

Player	Min	Usg	eFG	OReb%	DReb%	Ast%	FTM/PF	A/TO	TO%	AvgD
No Price	13	108.6	0.504	36.0	105.7	92.8	1.5	2.2	0.138	89.2
No Pippen	10	103.3	0.512	31.5	94.6	102.2	1.6	2.5	0.138	80.2
No Mason	8	112.0	0.512	31.0	89.7	101.6	1.6	2.3	0.140	83.4
No Russell	6	118.2	0.522	26.5	86.1	106.5	1.7	2.4	0.132	81.4
No KG	6	103.1	0.515	30.0	85.7	100.5	1.5	2.4	0.146	81.4
No GP	5	102.8	0.517	35.0	99.2	91.9	1.5	2.1	0.150	81.4
W8'd Avg	48	108.0	0.512	32.2	95.1	98.8	1.6	2.3	0.140	83.6

Big weakness: Not a lot of 3's -- 403 3PM.. EFG% is not elite, but I'm hoping the AST% bumps it up considerably... Is the rebounding strong enough to contend? Defense, passing look to be very strong. Thoughts?

Wilt
Ewing
Faried
Klay
Billups

Worrying light on the boards due to the Ewing selection, but I once won a title with him in this league and I've got better overall efg% than I usually manage to wind up with. I'm digging my lineup so far. It'll be interesting to see what coffee grounds drift to the bottom of the sixth.

I don't mind the board lightness- I am afraid if you are in my division. This team is very tough to defend, and the only hole on defense is at SF. Nice drafting.

So what exactly would you need for a land war in Asia? More rebounding? Excellent three point shooting? Control of the air space?

Hmm. Control of social media and the vodka supply routes.

I give you the working draft of Extruded Plastic Dingus (you know, for kids)
