Thanks for taking the time to do that, pharrop! I'm exponentially happier with this effort than last season's, and hopefully we'll see results to back up that current optimism. I still have some ironing out to do with some lineups, but I've got to put that off as my presence is required elsewhere the rest of the evening!

This. Team. Has. Everything.

The true savage king.

I'll have my teams in by tomorrow night at the latest, the biggest problem right now is they all suck, but there's also real life stuff too.

for my team names i went with some soundgarden song titles that fit well with how i feel about each team

searching with my good eye closed would have been used but its too long

Would Hunger Strike qualify?

Alright dh, Russell and number 1 for Simmons?

i probably cant bring myself to trade ben...but i guess thats a deal they would have to look at

i know less about the top picks this year then any other time in my basketball watching life so its hard to really judge that trade

The draft blows this year.

And they should trade Embiid, not Ben

agree on that. Embiid will be a disappointment in his career. And when's the last time a team won with a ball dominant post player leading the way? Not counting Duncan on the last Spurs. Last Lakers was Kobe, not Gasol or Bynum. Probably the 08 Spurs. And even then Duncan was on the downside. Maybe Shaq on the Heat, but it was Wade. Probably 05 Spurs.

If you could get Beal for Embiid, which I bet you could, would do that in a heart beat. See if you can unload one of the overpaid stiffs like Harris or Horford too. Washington is desperate.

Slaughterhouse 1-5 is pretty sick, probably gonna roll w that one tbh

I voted for Ben Folds, but mambo 6-10 is very very good.

When I was in college, I was the VP of the Student Programming group. We brought Ben Folds in for a show. On his way in, he drove past Effingham IL. He wrote the song Effington an then performed it that that night.

we didn’t play basketball though.

Way to Normal is in reference to Normal Illinois where Illinois State University is. He was already my favorite musician and that sealed the deal for all time.

Six, Seven,
Eight, Nine, Ten...

Hey real quick. Does anyone mind answering a question for me? Assists - the step function - is that in 5s or 10s?
Like is 85 better than 80? Or is the next step not until 90? Thanks

Never been completely confirmed but I believe it is 10% steps until 100, and then it goes up by 20% steps.

Thanks! So basically I get the same effect from 89.5 as 80.1?
