On a different note, regarding the history books and stats keeping etc.
What kind of other things should we keep, any good ideas?
We've recorded triple-doubles, maybe keep the top 3 leaders in each major statistical category at seasons end (points, boards, assists, steals, blocks, maybe percentages?)
How do you guys feel about voting on/electing an All-NBA 1st Team and an All-Defensive 1st Team? This could be based on regular season performance but also given team success a bit of weighting? Or maybe one All-NBA Team for the East and one for the West, the top five players in each conf.
e.g. East would be something like Rondo, Wade, Iggy, LeBron and Dwight (roughly just off the top of my head)
West is harder to pick with lots of losing teams but maybe Nash, Kobe, Melo, Durant, Yao
The five best players the season has had, two guards, two forwards and one center and maybe an honourable mention?
I feel so attached to my team haha. But seriously a cool idea?
Was great to get on and take on the leader of the pack.
That first half was intense and whilst I was down ten points at half time felt I was pushing you out of your comfort zone a little, whilst really running this Hawks team to their limits, was great fun.
Thanks again for allowing the extra long pause was very good sportsmanship.
Unfortunately the third quarter I couldn't keep pace with you and was trying to cuddle/settle a little guy and continue the game. Was a little dissapointed with my second half effort as I thought I was a real chance to keep it under a 20 point loss but that third qtr hurt me bad and from thee playing catchup and you had me out of my comfort zone.
Managed to find some Joe Johnson groove in the fourth which I will take into the future games and Teague off the bench pulled off some good moves.
Oh and you killed me on the boards damn Perkins, KG, Sheed!
Still a great contest and look forward to playing each other again.
Yeah i wouldnt mind doing that but to get everyone to do that may be asking a bit much duno if people would take it seriously enough
Yeah cheers mate, was a very enjoyable game and i was supprised those 3 fellas cleaned the glass first time they have done that in awhile! I reckon i could see you being one of the better players if you started from scratch...and yeah Johnson definately had his stroke going in the end there! good stuff mate
That's true. It's something 2K could look to put into their online system that the computer automatically generates - because that could be seriously cool.
Any thoughts on that?
Yeah its def a good idea i reckon but will be hard to organise, would you make so you couldnt vote for your own players and maybe only give the playoff teams votes? I dunno throwing it out there
Not voting for your own players is probably the way to go.
Maybe discount any ridiculous votes, but most of them would seem pretty obvious.
I'm not sure about the only playoff teams or not, for the East it's pretty easy to see who should be in, the West is a bit harder as there are lots of stat-killing guys and only (at the moment) one really good winning team.
Haha yeah it's not too bad. Since we've played most of our games the stats don't change that much.
I have my eye on who I think may be my first round pick. Hopefully it's not the same as who you were thinking!
After the first 2 rounds it is seriously depressing though.
Yeah don't steal my pick! Man I just looked at the Centers...there are only 5 rated 80 or above! My chances of getting a top C are small to none
That's true, but there are also some solid Power Forwards that could be played at Center.
yeah true east is stacked with winning %'s and west has guys dominating on teams like ming etc. could be a possibilty but would have a bit of work going into...by the way who is keeping on the stats?
Well Digz has been recording triple-doubles so I assume when regular season is over him or Ben will make a thread in the archives of OCT Season 2 and put some of the stat leaders up there.
Yeah same here! Im going away for the weekend now, just organised with the boys to hit up the beach house...hopefully will be back for 9!
Yeah the time I can do although I would have preferred earlier in the day e.g. 3 PM.
I start uni the next day so a bit excited/nervous about that. That being said luckily I don't start till 12 so that's good.
Yeah hopefully I'll be home around 6ish
Ahh you start uni next week hey? I went back this week, you starting 1st yr are you? Yeah 12 aint a bad start at all! Im 8:30 - 5:30 Monday & Tuesday...then 5 day weekend!haha supposed to get some work in the industry during the year though
Pffft...my first year I had 27 contact hours semester 1! And my Monday, and therefore first ever Monday, was 10am-10pm! Uni students are soft these days(That said, I'm still only 25 )
Fair enough mate, what are you studying?
Yeah I'm 1st year, I'm Monday, Tuesday and Thursday - 12 hours for the week.
Got some gay gaps in between classes but didn't want to come in another additional day.
