In the baseball leagues we would pick home parks in inverse order of the player draft right before the first round, because the ballpark affected the games a lot, but here I guess it doesn't matter. Do the arenas effect the game at all here? Are there places where the shooting background is better or worse, or the rims are tight or loose, or does it matter at all?

I’ve heard so many bad and good and bad reviews of Winning Time…should I start it?

Very entertaining, acting is very good and tells an interesting story. A lot of controversy on Jerry West's character. Idk how accurate or inaccurate it is but I like Jerry West's character a lot in it. Very hyper competitive but human.

Fun Fact: Norm Nixon's own son is who plays him in the show which I think is awesome!

Yeah I’ve read the West stuff and lol is he ******, but that’s a very interesting read on how they’re doing it, that sounds good.

That Norm Nixon son fact is awesome.

18. bmbigdog44: Walt Frazier - PG

By far the best guard in the league during his prime (68-75).

There's a couple of guys that I am shocked are still available.

Rjk.....Love the David Thompson pick. He should be selected a little sooner, imo. The only non-Center an argument can be made that was maybe as good as DT in college is Pistol Pete. ("Cocaine is a hel! of a drug."--Rick James)

Maybe Bill Bradley. Also West, Robertson.

Goetz93 asked on the other board about Marvin Barnes. At 33, he is a steal, a top 5 PF/C in the 3000 minute range. Great rebounder on both ends who contributes in all phases. A little high on the fouls but a late first rounder nonetheless.

A bad pick? My going with Bill Bridges at 48. Was ****** that Big O, Westphal, Drew and Dandridge all went in the 10 previous picks, so went in a different direction. Should have thought it through better.

Appreciate the feedback thomcat!

I just realized that amerk has both Unseld and Hayes.

I which Savoy was in my division.

FYI - all I know about riordan is I vaguely remember him as some kind of bad a$$/cheap shot guy - I welcome commentary on my squad - I’ve only done two decade drafts - trying to learn…

You which?

You should have spent more time in English class and less time playing fantasy sports!

Let's compare rosters

SAVOY - Haywood, Buse, A. Clark, Heard
BEN - Erving, Kelley, C. Jones, B. Taylor

I think I have you at Center (Haywood) and point guard, you have me at small forward. Too early to tell until we at least fill out our 5 starters. You need another guard, I need a forward or a center. If I take a center Haywood goes to PF and Heard to SF.

Defense I have 100, 83, 66, 53.

Don't know what season you are taking, but I expect one with Erving 100, Kelley likely 73, Caldwell 70, Taylor 80, so you got me there. Taylor is only 4.4 assists for a PG.

My 4 guys add up to 20.7 assists, you've got 15.3.

Rebounds, my guys are 38.5, you're at about 32 even.

Steals I am at 9.2, you're at 7.5.

TO's I am at 11.1, you are at 11.8.

Points I am at 84.1, you're at 82.4.

So far you have better defense, but not by all that much. You're +21 with the 4 guys combined, so about 5 more per position.
