2011-2012 NBA Season Thread
QUOTE (kev211 @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 11:45 PM) Call me crazy, but unless Dwight agrees to come here. DO NOT BREAK UP THIS TEAM. They're special and they as a team earned the right to go at it themselves tonight. You trade a guy away you risk ruining the entire chemistry that makes this team awesome. Edit: And if they lose as this team I will not be upset. I think this is the first time in my fandom that I'm attached to players as much as the colors on the jersey. No, please trade Boozer. He was so f***ing worthless.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 11:16 PM) I think Spoelstra is given a script to follow each game. -pre-game interview, mention cliche basketball words like hustle, passion, power -sideline huddle talks to players, cliche cliche cliche talk about hustle, driving, staying together -blown calls, pretends to glare at refs, throws jacket back to show how angry he is, mutter, shake head Every game I see him I will give him one thing though, he's great at calling time outs to slow down the other team's momentum. He also calls a lot of TOs after an and 1, which can possibly ice the FT shooter a bit.

So how long until the Heat stop playing like crap and start cutting this lead down to single digits? There's no way JL3 will keep hitting these shots.

Sabermetric Fantasy Baseball
QUOTE (Reddy @ Mar 14, 2012 -> 12:18 PM) if it's sabermetric why the HBP? how is that at ALL in the batter's control? kind of silly for fantasy. rather have OPS or something like that. also, K/9 instead of K's is a much better stat. You can't just stream them. It's not a category league, it's points head to head, so K/9 is not really possible to do... Plus HBP is counted in OPS, wOBA, etc. A lot of fantasy leagues also count RBIs and Runs, but those aren't really totally the batter's doing either.

QUOTE (TheCut87 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 07:04 PM) this is from RealGM.....interesting timing for a new 10 day contract if it is a deal w/ the bulls Well, C.J. is hurt... But yeah, it could also mean that they're trading Watson. Somebody brought this up in a thread at RealGM... The Lakers want Ramon Sessions. The Cavs want Asik. How about we trade Asik to Cleveland for Sessions. Then send Sessions + Boozer + draft pick to the Lakers for Gasol...? We could also send Watson to Cleveland and get a guy like Parker to get more SG depth. http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=6qs92ay The money works.

Sabermetric Fantasy Baseball
This is a league I decided to start up last year and it was pretty successful. The league is currently at 8-9 teams after I trimmed off some people who didn't play last year. Positions: C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, 2 OF, CF, Util, SP, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, BN, BN, BN and 2 DL spots. Scoring is weekly head to head points: At Bats (AB) -1 Singles (1B) 5.5 Doubles (2B) 8.5 Triples (3B) 11.5 Home Runs (HR) 15 Stolen Bases (SB) 2 Caught Stealing (CS) -3 Walks (BB) 3 Hit By Pitch (HBP) 3 Innings Pitched (IP) 7 Hits (H) -2.5 Home Runs (HR) -12.5 Walks (BB) -3 Hit Batters (HBP) -3 Strikeouts (K) 2 Draft will be about two weeks from now. The date is subject to change as I want almost everyone to be there. If you'd like to join a league that requires a different kind of baseball thinking, then you would definitely enjoy this league. Just ask J4L. PM me for league sign up information if you're interested.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 04:11 PM) So, who has a PG they are willing to part with and need a PF? Denver has a boatload of guards and looks like they need an actual PF so Nene can move back to the 5 full-time. But I don't think Andre Miller will change the Lakers' minds. Maybe the Bulls can try for Brandon Jennings...? Milwaukee wants to deal.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 04:02 PM) http://espn.go.com/chicago/nba/story/_/id/...ers-sources-say KC Johnson tweeted Lakers don't want Boozer. If such a trade were to happen, it'd have to be a 3-way deal. Maybe we can entice the Rockets with the Boozer + Asik + Watson package for Lowry and Scola. Unlikely, but hey, worth a try right?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 03:41 PM) Going by the PER metric, Bulls are giving up quite a bit there. Boozer's not really a 20 PER player. And Watson sure as hell isn't a 17 PER player.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 03:36 PM) I want me some Pau. But I don't see how Watson & Boozer plus parts work but I'd endorse it. Pau is a stud. Eh, he's had a subpar year by his standards. Boozer's actually been more efficient than Gasol this season in terms of shooting. But still, its f***in' Pau Gasol. Gasol and Noah down low would kick major ass.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 13, 2012 -> 03:36 PM) To elaborate, Asik, Watson, Boozer in a deal for Pau is being thrown around. OMG, this would be so so so so so so awesome. There's little chance of the Bulls keeping Omer after this year anyways. As long as Pau doesn't choke in the playoffs like he did last year, we finally have a low scoring big man that we desperately needed last year in the playoffs.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Mar 12, 2012 -> 08:27 PM) Why would the Bulls make the Celtics trade? That's just pure stupidity I think. Seriously, why would the Bulls take on Pierce and Garnett for Boozer, Deng, and Asik? I know Boozer's a declining player, but Garnett and Pierce are declining even faster. Garnett is an expiring, but I honestly don't see how that trade helps the team.
