Would You Rather?

Re: Would You Rather?

Geez..two awful situations lol.

I'd go with the latter, the review team would probably miss calls just like they do now. I mean they've clearly missed some series defining plays this year WITH review so it wouldn't change much.

Would you rather your team draft a talented kid with little work ethic, or a below average player with great work ethic?

Below average player with great work ethic. Hopefully he'll be great at something and can find a role. Talented kids with no work effort usually bust out.

Would you rather win: MVP, Championship Ring, or Olympic Gold Medal?

Re: Would You Rather?

ill take the ring, so long as its a game 7 @ home to win it!

would you rather a starting 1 elite scorer who cant defend and 4 lockdown defenders who struggle to score, or 4 elite scorers who cant defend and 1 lockdown defender who cant score (bench is a middle of the pack NBA bench for both situations)

I'd take the elite scorer and 4 lockdown defenders.

Imagine your team has a in his prime Dominique Wilkins inside a prime Shawn Kemp's body.. playing along side a prime Mitch Richmond and a young Rasheed Wallace.
with an older Horace Grant and a no longer in his prime Joe Dumars.

An older Glen Rice and Scottie Pippen coming off the bench with your average run of the mill veteran bench players.

Would you rather keep this team or trade them for the Miami Heat?

Dominique has Melo-esque shot selection, I don't see him carrying anyone to a ring. Though that would be an amazing team I'll pick the Heat because I know for sure they can play together.

Would you rather have a legit franchise player returning from injury, like a D Rose, or a young guy who's fairly injury free, but still needs to improve, and on his way to stardom, like a Steph Curry or Lillard type of player.

Definitely the young/injury free guy...

Would you rather have a perfectly officiated season, or a complete injury free season? (all teams, no injury's whatsoever)

I'll take the young fairly injury free player. He'll be cheaper and a little less stressful to manage. But we had a chance to contend for a title, I'd take the legit franchise player.

There's 10 secs left in a game seven vs the Heat, and your Pop..who do you draw up the play for? Rather have Parker, Timmy D. or someone else take the shot.

Perfectly officiated. As a team, I'm sure you'd rather struggle because of your own injuries instead of having bad calls costing you stuff.


Would you rather have your team in the NBA finals for 5 straight years,losing every one of them, or make it just 1 time in that 5 year timespan and win the title.

[turty11]

Re: Would You Rather?

1 year with a win definately.

would you rather lose your 2 of your 3 best players for the season to injury/suspension, or 5 of your role players who give you decent/good minutes

[Majingir]

Re: Would You Rather?

I'd say role players. Much harder especially in todays NBA to get top talent, so I'd rather lose role players to injuries/suspensions over top players.


Not be able to watch or listen to a single game(which includes highlights as well) of your team for an entire season(which just happens to be your teams championship winning season) or be able to watch/listen as much as you want,but they'll never win when you do.

Re: Would You Rather?

Not be able to watch or listen. The city would still be rocking and I'd sure as hell be out in the celebration afterwards lol.

Would you rather have your team win two championships twenty years apart and be a first round exit every year in between or make the conference/NBA Finals every year for twenty years straight and get swept out every time?

Re: Would You Rather?

I'd say make finals every year for 20 years and get swept all the time. 2 championships in a 20 year timespan and 18 first round exits won't be as fun as making nba finals every year for 20 years,even if you lose every game in the finals, that still means you're the best team in your conference every year for that time and have a real good roster.



Have the 2 best players in the league on your team but get swept 1st round, or have a roster filled with players that really only your teams fans have ever heard of,but get swept in the NBA finals.

The second option I'd rather be remembered as a Winner rather than a team that couldn't break through the first round. It would also show that our GM was a good judge of talent


You're a top prospect for the NBA after you've graduated from high school, would you go to college or the Euroleague?

College. More coverage and people are still biased against Euroleague players.

2012-2013 Lakers, with Nash, Kobe, and Dwight. You have the option to return either Kobe or Nash to their prime. Who do you pick?

Originally I was going to say Kobe because he would have a bigger impact at both ends of the court. Where as Nash would still be a liability defensively... But I think I changed my mind. Kobe was still a very effective player, and the shooting guard position is weak enough across the league that he was still among the best. A prime Nash would be a bigger upgrade compared to what the competition has, since quality point guards are in abundance right now.. Also with D'Antoni coaching, Nash is an MVP caliber threat.


If you had the opportunity to draft Shaq or Wilt in this years draft who would you take? Would you rather have Shaq forced into a time machine from 20ish years ago, or Wilt forced into a time machine from his era. Neither player played their college ball in the current generation or with current training etc. You get them for what they were.

Hmmm.... I think I'll take Wilt. I've always been more a fan of Wilt than I have been of Shaq. Don't ask why, because I have no clue.

It's 2003. You're the GM of the Detroit Pistons and you have a chance to reverse the decision of Darko Milicic going second. Do you take Melo, or do you take Wade?
