Woah, what causes this?

I gave myself 16 points. I stand by my decision and gave my reasons. I'm willing to take the heat from anyone and discuss it, but he didn't like my score and removed it. This was supposed to be a crowd sourced judging process with the top and bottom scores removed but it was changed along the way. There's a game within the game, but the organizer didn't want me to play it, so - oh well. Have fun everyone.

I probably would have walked towards them and asked WTF they thought they were doing. Regardless of their response, I would have continued on my run.

Yep, I'll send in mine before the deadline.

But I think I did OK considering I only used the 423rd pick on a double-double machine, and I needed a beefy center.

My wife and I have an analog version... Her: "HEEEEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!!!" Me in another room: "WHHHAAAAAAAAATTTTTT????"

I don't have clear memories of 1980's basketball but I love the team I drafted. I wish I could watch a simulated game of them running and gunning.

That's kinda how I feel about it. Ain't nobody got time for that. And no one will remember all that jazz. I keep my write-ups brief and efficient. Bump my team up 5 spots if you agree!

EY's 1980's Ultra-Value Squad! We have great rebounding at power forward and center, perimeter defense is excellent and outstanding passing that will lead to efficient scoring for everyone.

Did you watch his recent fights? Or did you just catch the highlight KOs?

I think Derrick Lewis is next in line? Francis has unmatched power, but the Black Beast is also evolving. Let's hope it's not staring contest like last time.

Warrants a massive ranking penalty IMHO.

I just sent in my rankings. There was a top tier of 4-ish teams then a big ole middle tier of 8-ish teams that was hard to separate from each other. I suspect the judging will have a lot of fluctuation in the middle 8.

Summary of my amazing 16 point 1970's team: Lots of scoring from efficient shooting. Excellent size and rebounding at every position, and defense in the form of blocks and steals. You just lost to a guy that shoots free-throws underhanded like @Yo Mama. Phil Chenier, PG 20pts, 4 Rbs, 3.5 ast.
