I made a comment after the first video that not a single one of my players was mentioned in the entire video.
It was there for a while but it was not responded to in any way either, so I deleted it. I get that there is a castle at the top of the hill in this community, but who wants to feel like it doesn't matter when they say something? It's awesome when anybody takes time to share their thought process for drafting or team building. I read them all and appreciate every word. As can be judged by my complete lack of success, me offering my thoughts would serve more like comedy fodder.
For what it is worth, my draft went off the rails in the 6th round. I was hoping to get Westbrook to put behind Harden and when he went I decided to go in the entire other direction.
when it comes to that first video, I'd say that was a good thing. There were very few, "wow, so & so did great" and mostly "wtf was everybody doing reaching?!" Lemme tell you it felt real good being ripped for taking Tyson Chandler and Robert Williams. I have no idea what's to come in this next one.
It’s the unfortunate reality of how things shake out… not every team can win. The nice thing is the that I don’t think there was unanimous opinion on any one single team if I recall so every drafter should be able to walk away feeling like at least they have one believer.
I also mainly trashed my team and I don’t think Ben was too kind to his team either.
With your team specifically, there was a little bit of confusion that I think of you can clarify it would probably crystallize the feelings.
Outside of trying to shorten the videos and take out the crap (I cut out like 20 minutes of stuff in this one), I spend most of the editing process trying to poke fun of the people involved the making of the video not the people the video is about. So hopefully that at least somewhat demonstrates that none of this has ill intent. It’s no different than any other eval going back until the end of time, just way longer.
