God drat it Zaza was so close to beating Draymond in the player vote. If only...


Alternatively: 19 Zaza votes shows that at least some NBA players can appreciate a good joke vote

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
Good to see my bribe to get Ben McLemore an All Star vote went through.

PLEASE DON'T! I just enjoy sarcastic banter and you should never take me that seriously because I often believe the opposite of what I'm being sarcastic about. More posting is good for the NBA thread

The success of Andre Drummond and Steven Adams even though they had the redest of red flags for me really softened my stance on these types of players. I just think it's never quite clear cut and the Kings have been burned both ways (NBA ready T-Rob, high upside Ben McLemore)

Oh I'm fine, and I didn't feel unfairly criticized .

The quality of the discussion and banter in here is very high - I'm still learning the ropes. Sometime I worry I'm just 4channing all over the place.

Hahah, the Lakers really couldn't figure out who to throw their votes at, although 3 votes for Mosgov is solid.

I'm disgusted with the results of the election. Everyone was so afraid of China's influence that they'd rather set things back 50 years than move ahead. This current system doesn't work and is a relic of an age that many would rather forget.

the other players like Delly just about as much as they like Draymond.

Or they used to like Bruce Bowen.

I sent Intruder a weekly dossier on the enemies of Houston athletics and he never once banned any of you animals, truly they were models of judicious and fair-handed moderation, and I will miss them both

Dwyane Wade will probably be in the all-star lineup and I am having a tough time figuring out enough guards that should go in front of him.
