Samuelyork93 - Wading for Wins
Wanna see a dead body? I've got none of those, but I do have nonsense, with a healthy amount of tomfoolery.
Luka Doncic - His name is Luka, he lives on the second floor. Given the subject matter of the song, perhaps a poor attempt at a joke...I am a rebel though. I love Luka, I don't use him well in the sim, but hey who do I use well? He does so much well, except defense but that can be tolerated when your point guard is rebounding at a percentage that is only slightly behind your assist rate. His usage is crazy so you will need someone that can help his D (pause) and match his usage as a backup....
Dwyane Wade - It is almost like I set that whole thing up like that. Did you see what I did there? It is like when you foreshadow something on a TV show and then after the commercial break all is revealed. I think this is a really great pick. It is like samuelyork has done this What if thing before. Sure Wade can't shoot that well, and he isn't a real three point threat, but he draws fouls, passes, and kills it on D without you feeling like you took a trip to Epstein Island with the turnovers. DWade is almost all upside here.
Manu Ginobili - When I first heard this name I assumed he was a Jedi I never heard of, but he is another stud that is perfect to overcome the issues Luka has when he gets hit by the door knob (dang it, wrong Luka) on defense. He is quite clean (I think he showered this morning even) and is serviceable at he 1 and 2. His ability to shoot threes is a huge help when he is in the lineup with DWade
Kevon Looney - You lost me here. First why draft a dude that can't spell his name right? Second I thought he was a SG. I get it, He will be the 3 and his purpose is to get boards, pass, and try to not screw up. I always screw up when I draft him. I also always screw up, but I don't always draft him. He is almost as infuriating in the sim as he is in real life. You should draft a life coach for him so he stops fouling everything that moves.
Onyeka Okongwu - This looks like the last two hands I had on Scrabble. I won those games because of all the points. I mean I am a moron, but I know words, I've got the best words...oh I don't think I can say that line anymore. I love what he brings with the boards to support the guards that are going to shoot, all the time, and shoot even more. Again, he hacks more than Dahmer on gentleman's night but he isn't a failure on defense and he will be a solid 4.
Wes Unseld - I was born a poor black child....no that's from The Jerk. I was born in Louisville so I am predisposed to love Wes and Ali. Not in that order. Wes has a bit more turnovers for someone playing almost 3k minutes than I would want to see. He rebounds well enough, but with what is already in your lineup it should be fine. He will not be a problem with his low usage. I feel like there were other options there. I feel like it, but I can't substantiate that with any facts. I do that, it is called speaking out my rear...I have a black belt in this.
Mason Plumlee - All of the Plumlee's went to this super exclusive private school on the south side of Asheville called Christ School. It is the type of school where you love your kids enough to send them far away from you so they can get an education that shows them how much better they are than everyone. The Plumlee's won state titles there, it was glorious until they went to Duke. Screw Duke. None of this has anything to do with ratings, but non sequiturs are something that I do real well too. Did I mention that I like rebounding? I think that stuff is cool. Plumlee does that quite well and passes well also.
He isn't stopping anyone but his scoring efficiency is really nice, even though it is lower usage.
The others - I love picking up Moon, Fournier, and Bradley. This will be really nice for filling out the lineup. Fournier keeps your PG/SG strategy moving forward. Moon at SF will give defensive flexibility and threes, and Bradley provides another board lord.
Overall - I like the way this team is constructed. A ton of threes, but with Wade it stops people from going +3 on you. I think your rebounding and passing are on point and you have higher usage players with good eFG%. If there is a point to nitpick it is the lack of defense from 3-5. I think you may have a difficult time with the elite centers. You may be able take advantage when they miss, but I don't see you slowing teams down very much. Luka's defense isn't great either, obviously, but I guess we've seen that before (one last nod to Suzanne Vega had to be done).
