Let me guess....you're picking the winner of the Bucks/Raptors series to beat the Warriors in 5 with Durant, in 4 without?

Bucks in 7 without Durant. Warriors in six with him

I love when you get all bitchy and wild

So gay

This is actually not far from my own take, at least for now, plenty of time to change my mind though LOL

PG - Doncic $1

SF - George $4
PF - Lebron $5
C - Jokic $3

Gobert is a pretty big bargain for a buck I'd say...

LeBron
Westbrook (also a bargain, ?s about his ability to win, but gotta take him)
Jokic (plays at PF)
Beal (need a shooter)
Gobert

They certainly have shown that this year since Durant went down but not always in the past. There have been many games since they got Durant where they just mailed it in and got their asses handed to them. I don't mind physical errors; those happen. What I can't tolerate in a highly-paif professional athlete is lack of effort.
You say those games "don't matter", well, tell that to the guy who paid $150 to sit in the rafters and $40 to park. He rightly expects to get his money's worth and its the least the players can do..

In the regular season.

Does not matter.

And you especially should get it considering what happened in 2016 when they went balls out every game.

You aren't allowed to pick the Bucks.

 

[tlance]

Kawhi
Giannis
Kemba
Beal
Gobert

 

[Darth Dawkins]

Kawhi
Giannis
Kemba
Beal
Gobert

That would be frightening, the opposing teams would need helmets.

Yeah.

Shooting, length, and a lot of defense.

Then you are a fool

I forgot about that. No pick; an earthquake will cancel the series.

$5: Lebron, Kawhi
$3: Butler
$1: Gobert, Mitchell

 

[Shanemansj13]

Kawhi
Giannis
Kemba
Beal
Gobert

Damn I was thinking you had to take one from each tier in that case:

PG - Kemba $2
SG - Beal $2
SF - Kawhi $5
PF - Lebron $5
C - Gobert $1

 

[dtgold88]

Lebron
Kyrie
Beal
Butler
Gobert

 

[Shanemansj13]

Lebron
Kyrie
Beal
Butler
Gobert

Our lineups are similar but we have two different positions:

You have Kyrie, I have Kemba
You have Butler, I have Kawhi.

I just think Kawhi is so much better than Butler, the slight difference in Kemba and Kyrie doesn't close the gap. Kawhi is arguably the best two-way player in the game. The clutchness of Kyrie won't play an impact as much bc you have Kawhi and Lebron imo
