Saturday Junk Drawer - Eternal Roster Edition

Let's play a silly game.
You've been granted the ability to pick your NBA roster from anyone in the world, salaries being irrelevant.
HOWEVER, you can only pick 5 starters and 1 sub. AND, this is the only roster you will have for the next ten years. If someone gets injured, you have to play all 5 guys for 48 minutes. Which roster would you pick?
Off the top of my head, I'm going with
Evans
Lebron
Durant
D. Howard
Rondo
Sub: Batum

Evans? Really
after 3/4s of 1 season? I would go CP3…plus the rest
Roybot: "Then he said "My girlfriend is from LA." to which I replied "Well then you need to find a new girlfriend."’
I was trying to think of who would most likely be a walking corpse in 10 years.
I wouldn’t put my money on Roy being much good in 10 years. Paul either.

I could see Roy being effective even as his athleticism fades
I don’t see that with almost any of the rest on this list

i think the backcourt is the most solid part of that lineup..
evans and rondo would be fierce side-by-side.. and durant can definitely stretch the defense their..
I think I’d switch this up a bit..
Evans, Rondo, Melo, Lebron, Howard. Durant

Injuries count, eh? So does chemistry.
I think you do have to take Lyndon B. Johnson, er, LBJ first and foremost. Guy’s too good not to.
Center is probably the next position to fill. So who’s good and not injury prone? And young enough to compete the next ten years? I think Howard is probably the right choice. But I’m more tempted to go with Al Horford or Brook Lopez. Because I’m not sure Howard buys in. I’m going with Lopez, because I’m sure at this point he’d sacrifice to be on a winning team.
You need a good young PG who can defend and hit the open three. Since Lyndon B… LBJ is essentially a point forward, ball distribution is not necessarily necessary (that statement was redundantly redundant). Ah, who cares, I’ll take Stephen Curry, even if he doesn’t fit everything.
You need a PF who can fill in at center in case of injury, can rebound, but can also hit an outside shot. The best player that I can think of who is still young enough is Chris Bosh, though the personality of no longer being the number one guy may not sit well, and with only six players, chemistry matters. Aldridge is Bosh-lite, but I want a better rebounder, no offense LA. Hey, I didn’t take Horford above. He’ll work.
That leaves the SG. Wade would be great, but is often injured. Same with Roy. We need a young slasher, who can hit an outside shot if he needs to. Mayo has an attitude, but I think the President can keep him in line.
Last, we need a player comfotable coming off of the bench who can fill a need for us in case of injury. We have two player who could play center. We have two players who could play PG. We only have one true wing, and he’s on the bigger side. So a legitimate 3 would be terrific. Unfortunately, all the good wings think that they should start. So we’ll just have to take Jared Dudley. He’d fit in well in that group.
To recap:
PG: Stephen Curry
SG: O.J. Mayo
SF: Lyndon… LBJ
PF: Al Horford
C: Brook Lopez
Sub: Jared Dudley

interesting thoughts..
i’ve been trying to think about whether I consider Lopez a legit enough center to be filling that role for ten years.. also.. trying to think about who would last.. except that I think Nic would be perfect on this team as the backup.. adds some defense..
also oj for durant is tough.. i think durant has a great lack of ego for a team like this..

I really dislike Lopez’s rebounding. He’s LMA-esque. Bigs when, and Howard and Oden are the two most talented centers in the league.
I do not understand what the “injury-prone” thing is, and why the media tries to push it. Just like in the “hot hand” debate, there are injury prone players… but there are a lot fewer than we say there are. A lot of people just have bad luck.

But I have something that’s been on my mind.
Did Chip Kelly really just say by actions that frat house burglary is 12 times less serious than domestic violence?
I just don’t understand it. Season for Masoli, ONE GAME for James?

Masoli lied to Kelly, James told him the truth about what happened
And while James acted like an idiot, read the transcript – it’s not like he beat this girl like she stole something, the punishment fits the crime, imo

I don't know why the genius of David Lynch is so elusive.
You didn’t say they had to be current players, did you? The word “eternal” is suggestive of other possibilities. Here’s a list of players, ranging from very good to great, who have had remarkably long, productive, and injury-free NBA careers. Over a 10-year period, these guys would win a lot of games and would be quite unlikely to forfeit any due to having fewer than 5 players to suit up.
G – Andre Miller
G – Randy Smith
F – A. C. Green
F – John Havlicek

My mother sends me more sorta dirty pictures than all of my friends combined. Lately she’s stuck on kilt photos. She sent me the one with the queen three times now.
My mom sends a lot of boob photos and it's always to me and about 5 other guys
I used to be afraid to open e-mails from her at work when I lived in Portland. She once sent me this thing that turned into a boob that followed your mouse by the nipple. The link said it was a way to clean your monitor.

I’ve been kinda down about Roy and Aldridge recently, so I went back and watched some of the playoff series from last year. Guys, they were killing it on defense. There was no “conserving energy.”
I guess that makes me a little more optimistic. The problem is that I also saw our offense swallowed alive.
We faced basically a more experienced version of us last year in the playoffs
Finley doesn’t make that shot, we play New Orleans and I doubt we have too much trouble.

For those who haven't seen it yet...
“I looked at him for a second and said, ‘Do you want me to be 100 percent real with you?’” Webster recalled.
Roy nodded.
Normally a friend who supports Roy to a fault, Webster leveled with him: He wasn’t setting screens to get open. He was being too passive. And he appeared to have become robotic.
I dunno. Brandon wasn’t great vs. Sac the first time.
Leave it to the O to praise the Blazers for wins against Sacramento and Golden State.

"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Sure. But didn’t you link the Oregonian’s annual “we are improving – winning streak!” article recently?
Oh that was absolutely me.
I think I took this new article a bit less seriously than you guys. You guys took it as a “look how great the Blazers are again!” article, but I was only focused on the fact that there are still people on the team who are willing to call Brandon out when necessary. I mean, he’s stunk against both good and bad teams, so this is a good start.
This article didn’t come across as badly as the previous one for me.

Who else is most similar to LeBron in size, bulk/strength, skills? It’s a bit funny that both of those were in one draft.
Thats what i've always thought of him as
LeBron with about 9/10th of the athleticism and about 7/10th of the passing/courtvision while being a slightly better scorer.

No, but a March thing, and they rotate teams wearing “Hispanicized” jerseys. Los Lakers, Los Mavs, Los Bulls, Los Rockets, …

Toronto is lower in latitude than lots of US cities so it makes sense, but moving down to Mexico City or over to Europe seems a little crazy.

I’m gonna have to get more people involved in tasting these before I actually try to market them. Luckily the market doesn’t begin until June so I have some time to tweak things.

I made one up.
2 1/2 tsp’s of yeast
1/2 cup of milk
1 cup of water
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp honey
1/2 cup flour to start and then after the yeast grow a little I put in about 2 1/2 more cups and then let it rise in a bowl with some clarified butter, then I split it into 8 parts and roll it out really thin about 1/8th of an inch and fry it on a dry griddle.
It’s very similar to na’an bread, but if you bake it on a pizza stone at 550 you can get it to form a pocket and make pita bread with it.

So you make a poolish, or starter? How long do let it grow before you
add the rest of the ingredients?

about half an hour maybe forty minutes
I’m going to experiment with it and maybe make it into rolls and let it proof a second time before I try baking it.

Dallas just isn’t as good as Utah and Denver, and we’ve beaten them twice at Dallas. They are obviously the team we want to face.
we haven't played them since the trade deadline though, and they've been on a tear.

Michael Schumacher is making a comeback in Formula 1 this year. The rule change for this year is no refueling, and this has led to some pretty radical design changes
The cars are much more angular this year and already look way lighter. It’s going to be interesting to see how much this slows the cars down, I have a feeling a lot of drivers are going to run out of gas in the first few weeks.

fun facts: Jerryd’s assist rate (per Hoopdata) is right in the middle of Brandon Roy and Chauncey Billups.
Heh. I didn’t buy that article at all. It’s all a function of your role within the offense. Jerryd is given the ball on the attack, which is represented in his very nice 3pt assist rate. He’s fulfilling his role.
I don't really see as much has as folks say
It’s mostly ULC accusing everyone of hate.
Some folks keep saying Miller gets too much hate and I can only name 4 posters that don’t care for him. I wish someone took BE stats.
The GDT hates him
He can do decent for a half, then has a turnover or gets blocked, and people are like GAWD HE ISN’T A PG, GET HIM OUT OF THERE.

It's also why I act like I hate Patty Mills sometimes
because a lot of the same people who go BAYLESS NO NO POINTED GUARD, then next say PLAY PATTY MILLS HE NEEDS DEVELOPMENT.
#52
I got no idea
I assume that yeah, someone has.
It ain’t likely though. Patty Mills is more famous than most guys taken 55th I imagine, what with being an Aussie and being in the Olympics and whatnots. There’s more reasons for people to like him for the exotique reasons.
He might become good enough to be a backup— I really don’t know. But anyone who complains BayBay ain’t a PG and then wants to see Patty play, doesn’t know how Patty has played. He’s a scoring guard who is short, not a “pure PG”. He’s a smaller, less good version of Bayless, judging from his college career.
If he learned to shoot real good, he could combine that with his quickness to be a tough cover.
#52
I hear that
I hate rookies. They are young and dumb. I think the NBA, NFL and maybe NHL are the only only big businesses that expect the youngest and most inexperienced person on their staff to fix everything for them.
It was inevitable, unless he immediately turned into all-star talent.
Like Dave said, Jermaine O’Neal spoiled it when it comes to Portland fans and young talent.
he had a remarkable and altogether unexpected leap to being an above-average NBA player… and it wasn’t good enough.
We are so weird.

you don't think the ATL will have to pony out the dough to keep him?
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
He will be overpaid. NY will probably offer him a max after striking out, which is way too much for a tier 2 29 year old SG. If ATL doesn’t match, he’ll follow the money (he did it once already, right?)
Johnson is 29?
I didn’t realize that. Still the guy can hoop.
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
I wouldn't split that hair
unless JK said it… still JJ has plenty in the tank and with the young legs around him he could milk the ATL for awhile
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
max K though
I think they can start him at 14-16 mil and go up from there. So if it’s a five year contract, you’re talking 20 mil/yr to a 33 year old JJ.
Even a 28 yr old JJ’s not worth that. Although there’s kind of the question of what the ATL can do otherwise. Horford and Smith are studly, but Crawford’s just a scorer, and then you have like Bibby and Marvin Williams? So maybe you just have to pay what it takes to keep him and do your best over the next 3 years.
I see him staying
Bibby and Crawford are guys I can see leaving town… Atlanta has a window for sure, but how far through it you can see is a little harder to tell
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
maybe they will. i don’t know. NY will have a lot of money to spend though. a whole lot. they’re gonna have enough for two guys. i think it will be Johnson and Bosh or Amare….and with Lee that makes a pretty good 3.

yeah....SG
i still haven’t raise the athletic stuff much though. just cause they’re just too expensive. it’s crazy. those stats must be cheaper for a PG or something. or maybe it’s cause i’m 6’6" or something.

No, they are real expensive for me as well
I just always used my points for it.
Think of it this way— usually you can do good enough to raise it a point. Each time ya raise it, you’ll do better in the next game, getting you more skill points and able to get more stats, which equals more skill points. Then you can spend more on athleticism, and so on.
#52
It's an investment, DTL!
You could have ’em all the way up, and start OWNING people, or scatter the points around on every other stat— which will be easier to do once your athleticism stuff is maxed.

And as a guard, speed is so awesome
The ability my guy has to just drive past people for a layup means I get a lot of easy points.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Yeah, especially speed
You need to sometimes use two games worth of points to raise speed but tis worth it.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
yeah…my speed is at 70 and the next one is 1370 points. my quickness is at 70 and the next one is 711 points. i just need to start going point by point i guess.

Yes you do
Both of mine are at about 95 now, and by the end of my second year I want them to be at 99.
Combine that with some sweet dribble moves and suddenly I’m one of the best PGs in the league.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
it would take a long time to get to 99 for me. i still want to get my 3’s up to where i can make them consistently. i want to get to about 85. that’ll help me get some milestones too.

3s will come
The easiest way to get lots of points early in your career is good shot selection, the easiest way to do that is layups.
And 85 in the 3 point category is not consistent, its pretty good but that’s what I have right now.
Like a real player you have to find your sweet spot for your jumper. My guy likes the baseline J and the corner 3.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
yeah….i’m a 90 on layups, and 80 on shoot close and an 85 on shoot in traffic. but i still miss quite a bit which is annoying. i’m also a 92 on midrange jumpers so usually i’ll just face up on the block and make a 12 footer.

Also offensive clutch
My guy has hit about ten buzzer beater game winners this year. I’m like Roy, I don’t miss in the last two minutes.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
That sounds awesome.
My offensive and defensive clutch aren’t high… we usually blow the other team out and I don’t get close games.
But in the playoffs, 2nd round, against the Wizards, Arenas was KILLING me. he scored 63 points on me. But, I scored 57 on him, and he missed 5 straight during the last 2 minutes of the game, and I kept scoring or getting the assist. It was fun… I was losing the points duel, but won the game.
#52
Point by point, yup
It takes a bit, but you can get ’em maxed out in no time with 5 minute quarters.
I remember I got my quickness up first, because it was cheaper. And it helped. But speed is expensive for a reason… it’s powerful.
#52
Yeah, it could take a bit
And I didn’t always use my points on athleticism… I’d use it on layups and stuff too. Never shooting, though.
But when I’d get a big bonus from a milestone, it ALWAYS got spent on athleticism. Because the whole game gets way easier after that.
Even getting it to 80… you just move better, can get in passing lanes better, blow past any defender, etc.
#52
And at 90+ speed
I don’t even have to use more than a little bit of turbo to get past folks.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
i’m kinda thinking quickness might be more important than speed. i can keep up with most people except the really really fast guys like Barea and such. but being quick will help more on defense.

Houston is great for a PG
Besides the fact that our GM is a genius (we ended up with the #1 and #10 draft picks after winning the title due to dumping Battier and Brooks), Yao is an easy guy to dump to for assists, as is Scola.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
And that helps your stamina last longer!
Speed is wonderful DTL!
I got maxed out on athleticism stats (vertical, stamina, quickness, speed) during my rookie season. Aside from layups and shooting in traffic, I didn’t work on any offensive stat (though if I spent money on, say, quickness, and had 200 points left or something, I used it on my defensive awareness and offensive awareness). Oh, and steals is 99 too.
Basically, my game consisted of driving the ball and dishing or scoring. And on defense, I went for steals. So, I only worked on what would help that type of game.
Plus, after winning all my end-of-season awards, I had a crazy amount of skillpoints to sort through… the 2500 I get from each game, MVP, DPOY, 1st team, ROY, rookie team, and whatever end of season thing there was. I used that to get rebounding high, and finally work on shooting.
#52
Did you name your guy Rajon Rondo?
If we win a title, I promise not to hate on anyone associated with the Blazers for 1 full season - jksnake99
It is a very Rajon Rondo style of play!
That’s true, I’ve thought that myself.
Except I score a lot more than he does, but otherwise, yeah… Morty Rondo.
MY ETERNAL ADVICE— get every stat you can. Go for every rebound, go for steals, dunk the ball, only shoot “good shots” (where it tells you, you shot a good shot), and accumulate stats as best you can. Positive stats equals skill points.
#52
While I'm basically a Bayless clone
Although becoming more like a PG version of Roy.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
I only shoot it if I'm open
I have the little “3” next to my guy now, meaning I’m a 3 point shooter but unless I get it open, its late in a game or a clock, I don’t shoot it.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Whereas on layups
If I don’t see a center, I’ll do my little spin move and put it in, with traffic around me.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
well...even with what i was doing in this game with the 12 minute quarters
i was still only getting about 1400 to 1500 points a game before milestones. so it didn’t make a big difference that way. just helped me get the milestones.

How much do you score, rebound, and assist, and steal?
I get lots of points, about 5 rebounds, 12+ assists, and 6 steals a game.
Getting as much of everything as ya can, even if you’re not expected to, really helps.

HoopData composed a new passing metric called “assist rate.” It appears to be gobs of all-around goodness, but I haven’t fully researched it.
Suffice to say, Jerryd is actually in pretty good stead, and his assists go mainly to three pointers. The implication there is that threes are worth more, and it takes a lot more passes to get assists, because they’re made less often.
by Cablinasian on Mar 14, 2010 12:06 AM PST up reply actions
My peepers say
He doesn’t get a lot of assists that leads to, say, a dunk or an easy layup (the super assist, I guess), but he’s been quite good at penetrating and finding the open shooter.
#52
I think assists are kinda self-adjusting in a way. If you get people shots at the rim, then you have a high rate of assists per pass. If you are getting people less valuable shots from three, it takes more shots to get makes, and thus results in fewer assists.

10-4 wouldn’t be impossible at all. Depends on how the team is coming together.
I LOVE the high-post offense we ran last night. It means the team HAS to move… if you look at Brandon’s touches, over half of them came out of the high-post set (well, not a set. Mostly just Camby grabbing the ball and waiting for people to move), where Brandon got the ball in the mid-post.

1995 is a real tough one, he's always forgotten. Here's a wiki excerpt:
His career highlights include leading the NBA in field goal percentage (57.6) in 1992-93 with the Suns, who reached the NBA finals that year. He also lead the Lakers in scoring in 1994-95 with a 21.7 average and made the All-Star team, and in 1995-96 again led the Lakers with a 21.2 average, notching the Lakers’ first 50-point game in over 20 years.
Nope. But nobody has guessed the player from 1988 yet
Who was a Blazer at the time. Idol is on the right track.
1988, Steve Johnson of the Blazers!
One year after being named to the All Star Team, he was left unprotected for the expansion draft, and left to Minnesota, where he played 4 games.
15/5 and .7 blocks a game
LMA laughs at Steve Johnson! Especially since Steve Johnson played during a super fast era.
#52

LMA hasn’t been as bad as it appears (asides from boxing out on FTs) but it’s obscured by our slow pace.

He's a below average rebounder
But it appears to not be that uncommon! Bynum, Lopez, no one complains about THEIR rebounding.

This is why Roy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Miller
“The way I took it was, ‘You need to wake up,’” Roy said. “It was almost as if I was starting to make it like a job. I needed to go out there and have fun and hoop. I think that’s the biggest thing you lose when you come back from injury — everything is nip and tuck, and you are just trying to find a rhythm. Well, he got me out of that.”
They are freaking millionaires paid millions of dollars to play a game that many people pay to play. Miller needs to pull his head out of his butt and learn to lighten up and have fun. Basketball, it’s just a game.
Maybe if he sees more success in the post season than he has up to this point in his career it will rekindle something for him. Maybe.
I am perpendicularly pissed off right now!!!!!!
It's like he'd rather be a florist and he's pissed that his best skill is basketball
It seems like he plays basketball because he has to, not that he wants to.
Dre just needs to get hurt
So he can feel the emptiness inside of him as he watches everyone else have fun while he’s feeling ouchie, and then he’ll have that love again.
I think he can have a veteran aloofness to him, but I don’t see him as not enjoying himself out there… I think he takes joy in posting up smaller dudes, getting rebounds, doing his job. He doesn’t fire anyone else up or whatever, but I think he likes what he does.
