2012 - CB Draft: "How's My Team Look?"

[Who]

I'm having a terrible time ranking the West

Yeah, the West is a nightmare to rank. Very hard to separate teams in rankings.

[Roy H.]

You're playing him at PF?

37.1 PER as a PF, 14.8 Opponent's PER as a PF.

(Oh, snap, that's better than either Aldridge or Horford!)

Did Lebron James usually guard the opposing PF? I can't remember. Seems like thats a Battier job.

I'm having a terrible time ranking the West, but I think I've come to a conclusion for my top 8 in the East, not counting my bulls.

1)Detroit
2) Indiana
3) Atlanta
4) Boston
5) Washington
6) New York
7) Cleveland
Orlando
9) Brooklyn
10) Philadelphia/Miami

So do we follow the real seeding rules? No division winner lower than 4th but doesn't necessarily get HCA

[KCattheStripe]

FWIW, here's my rankings:

East
Chi
Det
Wash
Atlanta ( Lady in the season but a freak in the playoffs)
Orlando
Indiana
NYK
Cle
Nets
Miami
 76ers

West
LAL
Dal
Blazers
PHX
LAC
NOLA
UTAH
( LA/NOLA/UTAH were ranked by an elaborate coin flip scenario as I like all three teams and GMs and wanted to be fair.)
Nuggets
OKC
Dubs
Spurs
Houston

Okc Okc Okc okc!  Led by Bynum arguably the best center in the nba. A young stud in tyreke Evans. A Great 3rd option in Andrea bargnani. And possibly the deepest bench in the cnba! The 2011 Okc team led by Kobe and rondo are still bitter that they didn't make the playoffs last year.

Just rank the teams.  Seeding is figured out afterward.

And your rankings in the West might be slightly out of order.  Better consult with your co-GM.

Here's how I see the battle for the 8th/9th seed in each conference going:

8. Orlando
9. Cleveland

8. Phoenix
9. Oklahoma City

I'm open-minded, though.  Convince me that I'm overlooking something on your team, and I'll adjust my rankings accordingly.

Is NYK in your top 8?

Yes.

Are the Celtics in the top 8 if yes are they in the top 5?

 

Lol it seems you're more concerned and interested in my team than even your own.

Lol my bad I meant the Wizards just that since im a celtics fan i said the Celtics.
