      Jabari. He has the personality to be the face of a franchise and be a #1 option. Wiggins will be good, but I think best as a complimentary piece. Jabari can be that guy.

      Would you rather be a head coach or GM for your favorite team?

        I'd take Jabari too.

        GM. More control, and I can't be a coach, I don't know enough about the schemes, the ins an outs. I've never really played high level organized basketball. I know the basics, but that's about it. I could put a team together, and I'm good with numbers and money and that kind of stuff, so I could emulate a Daryl Morey/Sam Hinkie type. I know Popovich though lol.

        In light of the recent Emmanuel Mudiay story, Would you rather go to play in the NCAA for a year, which has a proven track record for development of talent, or go overseas for a year and get paid if you were a top flight prospect who was essentially guaranteed a top pick barring injury?

          Since I'm older and have been overseas I'd rather go that route. Missing college would kind of hurt but not having to deal with going to class would be cool. ]

          Would you rather be dunked on like Deandre Jordan did Brandon Knight or be crossed over like Kyrie did to Brandon Knight?

            Crossed like Kyrie. Every American saw that dunk it was, it was all over the internet. Kyrie's cross was more highly recognized by people who can appreciate basketball. Average fans prefer dunks over dribbling.


            Would you rather have your favorite team lose on a heartbreaking buzzer beater or just watch them got demolished and avoid the heartbreak

              Lol at both instances being on Brandon Knight.. Poor guy, he's going to end up like Shawn Bradley with more highlights embarrassing him than actually highlights of him doing anything.

                Would you rather

                Start the season going something like 31-10,being the best team in the league at the midway point of the season, and then finish the season 10-31(meaning by the end of the season,you're just a 41-41 team)

                OR

                Just consistently play .500 basketball all season long(where you're just 2-3 games over/under .500 at any point in it,but still finish season 41-41)

                  Start 31-10 because maybe the fan base thinks you are going to contend for the rest of the year and buys more tickets.

                  Would you rather be a great player and win the Heisman Trophy but your team never gets to the National Title Game

                  OR

                  Be an average player, but win the National Title Game with your team

                    I assume this question is with regards to the NCAA national player of the year award for college basketball? Cause the Heisman is the award for football lol.

                    I'd rather win national player of the year. Chances are greater that I'm going to the NBA that way as opposed to being an average guy on a title team.

                    Would you rather be a hall of fame player that wins four or five gold medals for your national team but never wins an NBA title in your career

                    or

                    Would you rather be a hall of famer with one NBA title in your career that never even played for your national team or lost early in the tournament every time you did?

                      Well I was referring to football, that's why I said Heisman lol sorry I didn't specify.
                      Edit: I just now noticed this was in the basketball section lol. When I saw this it was on the first page of OS tapatalk and didn't realize, I feel stupid haha.

                        NBA title. Ask any player in any sport, they'd rather win the championship in their pro league over a gold medal at olympics or something.



                        Would you rather miss the playoffs 10 straight years(never once getting a top 5 pick however) or be an 8th seed getting blown out + swept in 1st round for 10 straight years.

                          Playoffs. At least you get to have that Playoff experience every year

                          Would you rather watch a one foot, LeBron-type dunker, or a two footed JRich type dunker?

                            My man Brandon Knight slipped but not because of Kyrie.

                              Brandon Knight got dunked on so hard he had to go to Basketball Purgatory (Milwaukee) just to get away from it. I'll take any other option.

                              Would you rather be a Sixers fan right now (perpetual tanking but great potential a few years from now) or a Hawks fan (perennial 6/7/8 seed that never seems to do anything of note once the playoffs start)?
