NBA Redraft Clubhouse Thread

You should probably save that for your first round matchup. Most owners think that they have a good team.

 

Keep in mind that your baseball team was ranked last when we did the power rankings. Although to give you credit, robicano and youker didn't finish their teams and as such, weren't involved in the rankings.

 

Yeah, i know. I think all the team are good even though some have more game changers than others (i only have dwill and brook, maybe noah)

 

Baseball isn't my best sport so thats a different story.

[Flynnatic10]

My team's more future than present oriented.

 

yea, you have a huge chunk of your team relying on potential rather than actual talent (hoping they will get better over time)

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I'm guessing basketball is?

baseketball and football to an extent (i suck at Oline and defense)

[italstallianion]

I can't wait until the voting starts for the football one. Mostly because Suns is involved in that one.

When your first pick is shuffled toward the end of round 1 (robbing you of getting an elite, automatic-contender superstar), what other choice is there?

 

Nobody's talking about Taj Gibson this season, he's been great for the Bulls. In this draft it doesn't matter that Boozer will steal all his minutes when he comes back, he's proven he can play. I think I got a steal.

I picked after you, what are you complaing about?:dunno:

 

as for gibson, i agree. I didnt need him though so i didnt pick him.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

I don't know, what am I complaining about (am I complaining)?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

In my p.o.v it doesn't look like you were complaing but that's just me.

when you said when your first pick is shuffled toward the end of round 1 (robbing you of getting an elite, automatic-contender superstar), what other choice is there? I picked after you, so i got robbed of a elite superstar even more.

[yrtb]

That's literally the most f***ing retarded thing ever. I refuse to PM you when I already told you.

 

You know what's f***ing retarded? Your inability to follow the rules. If I get your PM, Kilo wins the #4 seed, I was even up 2-1 as of 11 PM Monday, but I stretched it for you to get in your PM

[yrtb]

I thought flynnatic's team was the fifth best in the league to be honest, but the rankings didn't work that way, because a few people rated you #11

 

I'll start the playoffs when I get a PM about mine or kilo's team, preferably from YH

 

And just for the record, and this is to everyone: your team might be very good, but keep in mind that this league has 12 teams, and that the real NBA has 30 teams

 

When you put that into context, everybody's teams are most likely going to be pretty good, and one player in your starting 5 who is not almost all star caliber can result in you getting a lower seed than somebody else

WHAT THE f***? them im like the 8th seed...

[Flynnatic10]

on another note, if you voted for me as the #11 team, please PM me WHY you thought I deserved #11.

I said it once, I'll say it again. I will not PM you. You know my answer to the question, that's all you need.

 

It seems like you're trying to save your own ass so you won't get voted lower.

[yrtb]

I'll post the power rankings, but I'm still waiting on YH213

 

1. WhiskeyBreath

2. ital

3. jbay44

T4. YRTB

T4 Kilo

6. B22407

7. YH213

8. Flynnatic

9. CoCo

10. RSFFL

11. Jacoby

12. Youker

 

First round 1, 2, 3, 4 get a bye; 5v12, 6v11, 7v10, 8v9

Second round 1v8/9, 2v7/10, 3v6/11, you probably have the idea by now

 

For playoff voting, in order for your vote to count, you have to provide a good reason. I'm introducing this because I thought that some pretty ridiculous votes were made in the baseball redraft. First to 4 votes will win each matchup

[italstallianion]

This is already getting personal and the real voting hasn't even started yet. I can only imagine what type of s*** is going to go down once the matchups are set. I have a feeling that this will be even worse than the baseball voting, but that's because there are more teams and the talent of a lot of these teams are close together.

[Flynnatic10]

YANKSHATER, SEND IT IN OR I WILL VOTE AGAINST YOUR TEAM REGARDLESS OF WHO YOUR FACING!

[italstallianion]

We should call this the "Italstallianion Rule" after I got f***** in the semifinal of the baseball draft.

 

Also, for further clarification, we are going to be making separate threads for each matchup, so don't post who you think will win each matchup here. When the specific thread is made, post which team you think is better and why. The more information/stats/reasons you provide, the better.

[YanksHater213]

 

Please don't hurt my feelings like that.

[yrtb]

I don't see why yankshater is getting personal about it, I'm just asking him to follow a rule

 

And yeah, voting probably will be bad since the talent level will be so close

 

Also, to people like YH and Kilo getting mad at me, I don't know if you've considered the fact that I could have with a slight adjustment of my vote made myself the #3 seed very easily. Just move jbay44 down a spot in my power rankings, or not count b22407's vote since it was a couple of days late, but I decided not to do that (and for the record, jbay44 was #2 in my rankings, which is pretty high). So stop with all the hate.

 

And I don't decide these rankings, so it's not my fault if you got a power rankings worse than that you deserve

 

Anyways, I'll wait on yankshater or somebody else to vote, then we can begin the playoffs

time to write an essay on who i think is better.

[italstallianion]

On another side note, the power rankings almost match my personal rankings pick by pick. Obviously I didn't include my own team in the power rankings, but if you move Coco's team a little higher up, it'd pretty much match the rankings I sent Ytrb.

 

 

As for the YH and Kilo vs. Ytrb drama, this is getting ridiculous for both sides. Since the vote was at 2-2, that means that only 4 people voted between Ytrb vs. Kilo (I was one of those teams that voted) That means that there are 8 teams that didn't vote, and we know that YH is one of them. Either YH or one of the other 7 teams needs to pm his vote to ytrb so we can get this f***** thing started.

[yrtb]

I said it once, I'll say it again. I will not PM you. You know my answer to the question, that's all you need.

 

It seems like you're trying to save your own ass so you won't get voted lower.

 

If I was, I could have ended it at 11 PM Monday night, at which time I had 2 votes for me and 1 for Kilo

 

And the fact that I'm asking you to PM me right now sort of proves you wrong...

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Apparently sending a PM is a very stressful, time consuming ordeal.

[YanksHater213]

Haha, I already voted. I voted for Kilo. Not sure why everyone's crying instead of starting the playoffs. I'm not PMing you out of principle. It literally doesn't matter how I vote, I voted, you know who I voted for, so get on with the damn thing instead of whining about it.

[italstallianion]

But if you don't PM him, one of the other 7 teams that didn't vote can PM him with a vote for his team and that would put his team 4th and Kilo's team 5th. That won't be a huge deal this round, but it'll probably be a huge deal in the next round. Besides, I'm not sure if we could start this thing without Ytrb anyway, so we'd need this to get resolved. If you really care about Kilo's team, just pm ytrb that you think Kilo's team is better and let's get this started.

 

PS: I'm one of the 4 teams that voted, so who are the other 3 that voted? I'm sure that Ytrb is one of them, which would leave 2 other teams. Flynnatic and Jacoby have been on here, and if they both voted, that means that those are all of the votes.

[yankees228]

Well, the football draft should certainly be interesting lol.
