Savage VIII Rosters/Commentary Topic

I can't really explain my lineups here. I'll just post an actual picture of me figuring out my squads:

7/3/2022 11:01 PM
6 different guys playing SF in the various lineups.
7/4/2022 12:16 AM
Stockton/Big O/sprinkles of Charlie Ward
Big O/David Thompson
Bobby Jones/George Gervin
Derrick Favors/Dave Cowens
Amare Stoudemire/Dave Cowens

David Lee, Anderson Varejao

I'd like to magically hit on a lights out 3 shooter with my 12th man.

Haha love it. I’m in the same boat. I used my 3rd round pick on a 6th man. My C plays SF on two teams. I probably have 8 different guys who will play SF for me. Pepe Silvia is my backup SG, but I can’t find them in the draft center.

I like my team, so probably headed for a middle of the pack finish.

PG: Lowry/McConnell (Batum with some backup minutes on one team)
SG: Erving/Gay
SF: Horford/Batum (Gay with some backup minutes on one team)
PF: Davis/Aldridge (Horford with some backup minutes on one team)
C: Capela/Bynum/Bamba/Aldrich (Davis will play here some on 1-2 teams)

Defense will be mostly solid, but I didn't get much behind Erving/Davis so on the teams where Erving plays less or Davis has defense in the 70s or 80s I could struggle some on that end.

Should be plenty of rebounds, but I there are teams where the group behind Capela is weaker (and/or Erving doesn't give me as big a Dreb boost from SG) and I might suffer a little.

Assists have the potential to get down in the low 50s on one team depending on lineups but should mostly be solid.

With Davis/Erving as the highe usage guys my efg% will be more OK than really good, though the rest of the team does solid there. I think I'll have around 500-600 threes on all the teams between Lowry, Batum, and other guys chipping in here or there.

It varies among the teams but I think the towels will be average at worst, and good to very good on a couple teams.

Overall I think I've built five competitive teams, but may not have any really standout teams.

I thought you got great value on Deron and Ayton, among others.

Will start on evals when the last picks are in.

These 6 players were in all the previous Savage Seasons. Will anyone in this group find their way back or are they gone forever?

Damn. Forgot about Coop. For the best, as I was already having trouble deciding between Buse, Tiny and Hinrich for my last pick...

Lillard / Conley
Delon Wright / Pat Bev (sometimes flipped)
Ibaka (usually) / Brandan Wright / Dwight Powell
Jarrett Allen / Kermit
Shaq / Nurkic

Playing a few more mins from underwhelming seasons than I had hoped, but felt like the draft played out well, liking the efficiency numbers.

I liked almost everybody you picked when you picked them. Just basing off of what I see without delving too deep into the numbers, yours is a team I don't want to be facing much.

Can't believe we collectively passed on Barry and Hill, who have lots of really useful backup guard seasons

I like Kermit better at SF. Getting such a great backup for Shaq that late in the game is amazing. Love the SF rotation. Lillard + Shaq is a winning combination.
