Current Players NBA Draft Round 1: Saint Cy of JFC vs. Ellis269

Who would win in a 7 game series?

  • Total voters
    27
  • Poll closed .
In the all time draft competition I didn't put much weight in benches. We were going off of all time great HOF guys in their best year/years. I figured the starters would just play pretty much the whole game.

In this competition I put more stock into the bench players. I figure you need about an 8 man rotation.

In this matchup the starters are pretty close but cy might have the best bench guys in this thing in wiggins and Thompson. And I think they would both be great as the first big and first wing off the bench. Knight ain bad for the backup pg.

Cy gets my vote.
 
Probably should have started Harris at the 3, PG13 at the 4 and just put my best guy on Durant. Then I can have Rudy Gay focus on volume scoring off the bench.

Walker vs. Dragic
Hood vs. Lee
Harris vs. Hayward
PG vs. KD
Gobert vs. Lopez

Clarkson, Gay, Mirotic and JV off the bench to matchup against Knight, Wiggins, Porter, Thompson and Jokic. Booker's job is to piss people off and elbow someone in the face. Get past his suspension and then do it again.
 
I really don't like Cy's combinations of PFs and Cs when it comes to defense and rebounding. But, Ellis's team is poorly situated to take advantage of that.

George + Hood + Walker > Dragic + Lee + Hayward

Cy's bench is better.

Tough call....

I'm going to abstain on this one. Sorry fellas.
 
Wound up going Cy. It's a really close one, but I think Hayward shines not having to be the #1 guy and Durant gets the job done.

Bench is the final tipping point.
 
Good match Cy. Your team (especially your bench) is better than mine.

If I were you, I'd think about tweaking the starting lineup. If you insist on playing KD at the 4, I'd start both Wiggins and Jokic. Both guys will likely take a jump up this year, while Lopez and Lee might step back.

A bench of Knight, Lee, Porter, Thompson and Lopez is still pretty stellar and the length/defense/doing potential of your starting lineup would be hard to match up to. Plus, you have more than enough scoring from Knight/Lopez to have adequate scoring from your bench. Don't need Wiggins as a 6th man. I thought that was a really big mistake by you. Understand your reasoning, but I still think it was a mistake.

Good luck in the next round.
