OT: Pick your playoff starters

[KemBuckets21]

Pick your 5.

Me: Kawai, LBJ, Rudy G, Gordon, Anderson

 

[Blue Blood]

curry beal james ibaka aldridge

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Lebron, Kyrie, Gobert, Love, Gordon.

 

[polycom]

Lebron Curry J.Johnson E. gordon gobert

 

[jfuchs91]

PG: LeBron
SG: Eric Gordon
SF: Kawhi Leonard
PF: Serge Ibaka
C: Rudy Gobert

Defense first, with great size and shooting. Tempted to take Durant over Kawhi, but good luck scoring on a team with Gobert, Leonard, and Playoff LeBron. Ibaka isn't quite as impactful a defender as he used to be, but he's no defensive slouch either and shot almost 40% on 4 3PA/game.

This was my thinking. But after seeing how rudy can swing the ball I felt like adding an elite shooter in anderson would be more impactful than ibaka.

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

Lowry
Bradley
LeBron
Love
Gobert

Size, Love to spread the floor, elite defense on the perimeter, and lots of lots of rebounding.
Oh, and The King in the playoffs.

Anyone who doesn't pick LeBron in this loses.

 

[Mr. French]

Once you pick 2 of the $5 players of your choice, Lebron plus another, it's virtually a lock that you'd win in real life.

 

[Tommyboy]

IT, Beal, Lebron, serge, Gobert

 

[imno1]

Other than his free throw shooting, Lebron is playing some of his best ball ever. He's just been ridiculous

 

[UofCT]

James, Kawai, Love, Beal, Ibaka

 

[Kitaman]

This is said practically every post season (12 years in a row, with 6 straight Finals). Kinda weird how he never gets the MVP regular season title but remains the best player in basketball. If valuable is the operative word then he is the 'mostest' of any player on any team.

 

[White Dwarf]

The Bron, Steph, and three guys for a dollar. Keep the change.

 

[Matrim55]

The real challenge is doing the best non-LeBron team.

 

[UConNation]

Lebron, IT, Klay, JR, Gobert

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Thomas Bradley Crowder Horford Johnson

Lebron has won 4 MVP's.

 

[EBonz30]

LeBron James- $5
Kevin Durant- $5
Andre Iguodala- $2
Serge Ibaka- $1
LaMarcus Aldridge- $2

This league is about players who are 6'5 to 6'9 who can hit the 3 & defend the 3, that is why the Warriors are so good, they have a handful of players who can do both.

This team would beat any other combination you put up there.

Sorry, it's the truth.

Who you apologizing to?

 

[champs99and04]

Beal, Iguodola, Bradley, Draymond, LeBron

 

[Walker11]

Bradley
Beal
Lebron
Kawhi/KD - toughest decision for me.
Gobert

Have you seen LMA play recently?

 

[EBonz30]

Have you seen LMA play recently?

Yes I have, don't love his game, but I believe he is a better player than Kevin Love. Has more ways to get his buckets and is a better defender.

 

[Walker11]

LMA and Ibaka are both bad picks. Ibaka is being overrated in this thread. You need to pick Lebron and one of Kawhi or KD. I think Gobert is a good deal @ 3 bucks as well. Fill out the roster with whatever 3 and D guys and you are golden.
