Current Players Draft First Round: Hack v. Cy

[Hotdog]

https://espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?id=400489928

Hayward scored just fine vs. Drummond this past year.

I just mean in general. Hayward doesn't finish well in traffic.

It's also Ibaka, Drummond, Deng, and Mathews that he has to get past and score on. Those guys play excellent team, and individual defense.

 

[Hotdog]

Well may be cant score is too strong a word... he can score its just that Davis is a better scorer ... the same way Curry is a better scorer than Dwill at this stage of their careers....

I wouldn't say Davis is a better scorer than Steph Curry. I think in the near future Davis will the more valuable and overall superior player. But right now, Steph can easily outscore Davis. Davis probably will never be a better scorer than Steph, but if we're to start a franchise with one or the other, I would prefer Davis because of his defense and scoring combined.

Not saying that, just saying that offensively:

Davis > Ibaka

DWill < Curry


Hence the close match-up.

This took me a minute. These teams are constructed pretty similarly. Where Hack has the best offensive player in this game (and maybe even in THE game), Cy's team is more balanced in every other way.

 

[Siro]

I like Cy's team better, but I bet both will qualify anyway.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Closest matchup of the day imo

This is the closest matchup so far imo.

Cy needs to state his case to be honest.. he has Davis, Leonard, DWill... that team isn't just gonna lay down .... he also needs to field Gustavo at least if not Collins.

I'll do it for him: Hack's team is garbage.

Paging Dalamon. I need your vote. I got your boy Hibbert.

Paging Dalamon. I need your vote. I got your boy Hibbert.

I got his boy Trey Burke though. I think he is a bigger fan of Burke.

 

[Siro]

I hope more people vote. The first 4 matches got nearly twice as many votes.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Rock the vote you ingr8s

 

[Coach Ellis]

Voted Cy. Just like his key players better. . .

Curry >>> D. Will
Matthews < Hayward (barely)
Deng << Leonard
Ibaka <<< Davis
Drummond > Hibbert

Burke & Anderson << Green & Pek

Cy just has the stronger team. The rookies add intrigue for Hack, but that didn't help my team with Gordon and Exum (who are better than Hood and McDermott IMO) and I wish that Cy had a better (and younger) PG, but I still give him the edge.

Drummond > Hibbert?

Hibbert is an All-Defensive team player who anchors a top defense year after year.

That is what happens when you start the pole on a weekend.

I started the poll on Thursday.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Thursday is the start of the weekend if you are a G.

Drummond > Hibbert?

Hibbert is an All-Defensive team player who anchors a top defense year after year.

Hibbert is a talented guy - no doubt - but I have some serious concerns about his attitude and desire. I think his value is going to plummet here, while Drummond is only going to improve and excel under SVG. That's why I called it the way I did. 2 years ago, I give Hibbert the edge running away with it. . . after last year, I've soured on him a lot. Maybe he changes that without George and Stephenson in the lineup this year, but I don't see it.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Drummond > Hibbert?

Hibbert is an All-Defensive team player who anchors a top defense year after year.

I kinda like that you're still pleading your case even though I stated that I thought you had the better team AND I voted for you. I hope more people come around and vote for you. I like your team a lot actually.

Davis is the best player on the floor and DWill and Hibbert are due for bounce back years. I also think Hayward will play closer to his contract than people think.
