I propose we play our own sim game here. Here are the guidelines:
  • You can write one play per post, foul shots don't count though - except for a missed free throw w/ a subsequent rebound and play. So if someone misses the 2nd free throw, the 'and 1' on a made shot or the 3rd FT on a three, just leave it for the next poster.
  • Your play must end on a bucket, missed shot + rebound, turnover, foul, whistle, steal, block.. whatever happens in a ball game.
  • You should adjust the time and score accordingly at the bottom of each post. Remember the shot clock.
  • Subbing players doesn't count as your post, so sub away. Try to copy the player box if you sub someone in so we know who's on the floor.
  • You can write things like "Wade is tired so Rivers takes him out." Be as detailed (or non-detailed ala WIS) as you want but you should have a play to finish.
  • Can't post 2 consecutive times.
I have no idea if this will fly so we'll play only one 12 minute game. (If we finish, we can make it the 1st quarter and continue as long as everybody doesn't foul out). We'll use the All-Stars from this season, so EAST vs WEST! Subs are linked here:

NOTE: Don't put Yao in the game or anyone who's not on the team.

Starting Lineups
EAST
WEST
Rose Paul
Wade Bryant
James Durant
Amare Anthony
Howard Duncan?

I'll get it started:

Howard wins the opening tip and passes to Rose who brings the ball quickly up the court. He lobs a pass to Stoudamire who throws down a thunderous dunk in Anthony's face as he's caught snoozing on D! Posterized on the first play!

EAST 2, WEST 0

Can we be absurd like WIS and have a whole bunch of four point plays with 6-footers dunking on 7-foot defensive specialists over and over?

This could take awhile given the complete lack of D in the all star game!

Anthony throws in to Paul who whips it down court to a streaking KD for an unconstested layup over James.

Ash - LOL.. but why not? this is just for ****s and giggles - post whatever u like.

Badja - that's right, there's no D in the all-star game. But given we can post whatever we want, we can MAKE them play D and slow it down as opposed to uptempo, if we want. For example:

Rose breaks down CP3 at the top of the key, drives into the lane and puts up a floater. Duncan quickly swats it out the air into the hands of KD.

Durant races down the floor, going in for an easy lay-up, then decides to do a behind the back pass to Kobe at the left elbow...nothing but net...Bryant feeling it as usual.

Kobe passes the ball to no one because he doesn't have to worry about triangles, zen masters, or any of that ****.  Settles with a 21 foot jumper that clangs off the back of the rim, Howard with the rebound.

Howard poses with the ball as Lebron mimics taking a picture of him.  He then passes the ball to Lebron who sees Stoudemire make a cut to the hoop and lobs up the ball for a half-court alley oop.

Lebron dribbles up court, asks the reporter: "What Should I Do" and Kobe steals it, oops it up to Griffin who 360 dunks it.
