:accepted:

ok so, 2/2 wins the prize, but can we change the prize to a jersey of the winners choice. i havent played ball since i graded high school so, i dont really have use for lebron x's. and by judging according to votes, you mean the actual end of season winners and not votes by rsers right? anyone else wanna jump on this too

Mike Oxbig 11-22-2012 08:17 PM

Now this thread just got a lot more interesting to follow! Wonder which jersey you guys will pick.

wasabisashimi 11-22-2012 08:22 PM

no game is playing tonight. Sucks

G-spec 11-22-2012 09:48 PM

shit got as real as it can in an NBA thread lol...

ok so yea ok fine we can do jerseys..... and what? you don't ball anymore brah ? it's a beautiful game man, you should get back into it....

So how bout we do authentic team jerseys from the NBAstore.com, the jersey of the player we picked for our bet.... so if I win it's Bledsoe, if you win it's whoever you got.... Carl Landry, JR Smith or K Mart......

damn them new Knicks jerseys are lookin real nice I'm actually picking one up for myself real soon, I'd go with Smith for the jersey alone if I was you it's sick

I have my pick ready, if I can jump in on this, though I don't understand how it would work with multiple people....let me know...

G-spec 11-23-2012 07:58 AM

We can do the losers pitch in to buy the winner the jersey.
And to make it worthwhile like I said the authentic jersey from NBAstore.com of the winners choice, doesn't necessarily have to be of the specific player they chose.
Well judge winner according to votes in regards to the 6th man competition that's done at the end of the season. So if none of our picks win, then we go by who got the most votes after the winner

Michael Finley Eyes NBA Comeback - RealGM Wiretap

Brandon Roy Has Degenerative Knee Arthritis Contemplates Retirement - RealGM Wiretap

What if 2 guys make the same pick; does the 3rd guy have to buy 2 jerseys then if he loses?

wuuhoo 11-23-2012 01:10 PM

nice a triple threat :fullofwin:

dlo 11-23-2012 05:43 PM

come on melo, complaining wont get u anywhere.. a technical and missing a play/team gettin dunked on -.-

G-spec 11-23-2012 06:27 PM

Kobe bein Kobe, shootin teh Lakers out the game....


the bet, I don't know let's hear from Jon what he wants to do...... think we should just pick our own separate guys, unless you two naggers are plottin against me

jonwon 11-23-2012 07:22 PM

hahah got too lazy, but if i still played, lebron x's look dope

so is it just sixth man award now? unless we go hardcore and pick all the end of season awards and the person with the most picks wins? or most picks with highest votes? and im fine with what g-spec laid out about the rules and everything. this should become an rs end of season tradition lol

Mike Oxbig 11-23-2012 08:01 PM

Keep it to sixth man guys, since that was the original argument... so i can start following those players you guys bet on. More entertainment for this thread!

bballguy 11-23-2012 09:25 PM

no G-Spec lol, we're not plotting against you, I'm just asking because their is a chance that 2 guys might pick the same guy. You guys make your picks first, and if I have the same pick as one of you, I guess I'll just back out or something...

oh btw:


G-spec 11-23-2012 09:39 PM

^ sick move and finish, even if Parker didnt trip on Lance's foot he still got beat hard...

but ya somethin fishy goin on there for a sec thought you two broskis were PM schemin bigtime, lol
ok you know what I really like Jon's idea of picks for awards, let's go ahead and do it for the 6th man, Most Improved POY, MVP, Defensive POY, and Rookie POY....
if you guys dig it, then let's lay out our picks first and see if we conflict anywhere on them...

I think out of those the only one where we probably will end up pickin same guys is for rookie of the year, its either Lillard or Davis, so we might have to drop that one... I would have picked Drummond myself, but Lawrence Frank's rotations are suspect as of late, he's fckin everything up



holy slow motion high definicion.... D Will is the only guy I know that always dominates Chris when they go head to head


bballguy 11-23-2012 10:39 PM

Going with all the awards completely goes away from the whole original point of this....this was about putting your money where your mouth is about 6th man...that's all.

I feel EXTREMELY confident against your pick of Bledsoe; that's the only reason why I'm coming in on this...In fact, I'd be willing to bet you a shitload more jerseys that my pick gets more votes than your Bledsoe....again, no doubts about how good Bledsoe is, but the guy simply won't get nearly enough minutes to even be given serious consideration...

Nlkko 11-23-2012 11:02 PM

Really frustrated with this Lakers team but gonna keep my mouth shut because still early in the season. I have my doubts about championship.

G-spec 11-24-2012 06:32 AM

yea I hear ya, and my money is always in the vicinity of my mouth, lol, basketball n sports is literally the only thing I talk shit about as I think most guys do, other than that I'm a super nice guy....
but Jon has the right idea, it would be more interesting and fun to involve a bit more if we chose a few categories picked our guys then went by overall votes. And yea we should definitely do something like this every season with as many guys in here that wanna participate, make it fun.

As far as Bledsoe, the reason I'm confident he'll get the playing time is because I think you put too much faith in Chauncey, the way I see it he wont see serious playing time until before the playoffs, also Willie Green's minutes will be redistributed to Bledsoe if anything. The only time from what I've noticed this season so far and I've watched every single Clippers game including pre-season, the only time his minutes suffer is when they're playing a team with a good bigman and they need guys like Hollins and Turiaf more than Bledsoe. And this is rare, because the league is mostly about stopping the other team's guards, and this is what he does.


OK so I'm gonna lay out my picks right about now, lets see what you guys got

6th Man - Eric Bledsoe
Most Improved - D'Andre Jordan
Defensive - Serge Ibaka

I think LeBron ruins these two next ones as they're quite obvious, so I don't know maybe we could pick guys other than LBJ, like guys that we think will get second in voting

POY - Rajon Rondo
MVP - Rajon Rondo

yea that's right, I think Rondo will be close in votes in both of these

411ken 11-24-2012 09:08 AM

I haven't followed nba as much as I would like (new kid) but I think I'd go with these guys as favorites

6th man - Jamal Crawford or Kevin Martin (close 3rd wud be Marcus Thornton)
Most improved- jrue holiday or Paul George (closssse 3rd is Kemba walker)
Defensive- Howard or ibaka

Again, you guys have probably seen more games than me so my "picks" might be off? Lol

bballguy 11-24-2012 09:28 AM

ROY - Damian Lillard
DPOY - Dwight Howard
6th Man - Jamal Crawford
Most Improved - OJ Mayo
MVP - LeBron James --> Kevin Durant 2nd.


I have no idea what POY is that G-Spec is talking about...

Isaiah11 11-24-2012 09:57 AM

Do I really need to state which team I root for?...

GLOW 11-24-2012 02:57 PM

i think you do. all i know is that you are not a miami heat fan :badpokerface:

haven't really had a team since phx was a contender with nash on it.

i just cheer for toronto b/c they're our lone canadian team :okay:
i usually just look at who's in the playoffs and have a team that i hope to see lose :lawl: i guess being a vancouver grizzlies fan all those years will do that to you

Mike Oxbig 11-24-2012 03:09 PM

Lakers/Thunder
