On hindsight, I should've drafted Joseph instead, but then again he might not have gotten the instruction work like he did with you since I had quite a few project players.Chilikonkarne wrote:Thanks for the kind words on Cory Joseph gentlemen!
He was for sure an interesting project and I am really happy about the results. I was the most worried about his efficiency when I drafted him but with preference work and surrounded by other scorers, he became a solid contributor.
I like him the best for his defense, rebounding and assists (12th in the league from the bench)
Yes I remember. You weren't too high on him because you drafted T.Jones with the 10th pick that yearhardenwithnod wrote:On hindsight, I should've drafted Joseph instead, but then again he might not have gotten the instruction work like he did with you since I had quite a few project players.Chilikonkarne wrote:Thanks for the kind words on Cory Joseph gentlemen!

Agree, I think they should be starting too. Georges minutes are down since getting to Dallas and so are his points (avg just over 22 in Dallas) and efficiency (down to just over 44%) are down also.Myles wrote:I actually agree on the MVP needing to start games, but for me it’s not an arbitrary thing. The star that comes off the bench is brought in to stagger, so that teams always have 1 or more stud in the game at a time. But because he comes off the bench at the start of each half, he isn’t going to go up against first units as often as other star players. He’ll miss the first four to six minutes of the half, which is almost always exclusively the opponent’s first unit.
8 of his 13 games here have been on the road and in 4 of his 5 home games hes been matched up with Harden (94% stop), kemba/oladipo, dion waiters, and Adams/Crowder from Memphis.bt wrote:Agree, I think they should be starting too.

Just how I don't like guys playing players in unrealistic positions, I wish the engine would force unhappiness more for players playing less minutes than they expect so we could see a proper MVP race. I'm guilty of it too but be good to see Westbrook/Curry/George/Harden/Durant/Griffin/Davis, etc, all playing 34-35 minutes plus like they do in the NBA.
I think George will be back to the starting lineup after the all star break....WillyJakkz wrote:Paul George is in a different system in DAL than in ORL, he won't look like the same player there statistically and I saw he started 1 game but he definitely didn't expect to be coming off the bench. I personally don't like it because he is my favorite player and damn sure hate to hear the ridiculousness of Exum at C.
I honestly hate Biz' rotations and positioning
