This thread is to showcase your favorite players you've used throughout the year and why.
My favorite players (per position) :
D. Cousins
Couldn't manage to dominate paint as much with any other center in the game. Once i establish him in the post game, he simply cannot be stopped. Biggest offensive strength is ability to finish it with contact near rim, but he's also good with all post moves and pick'n'pop game.
Runner ups: J.Noah (paint defense beast), N.Pekovic (very good near the rim).
Pau Gasol
All around post player like D.Cousins. Like to him a lot for midrange and high post game. PF like him fits my style of slow tempo half-court game a lot.
Runner ups: K.Garnett (still a beast), P.Millsap (money shot) .
Rudy Gay
Plenty of nice choices for this position. I really like to post up with sf's in this game and he is very efficient there, can get into paint and finish as well as take quick step back jumper from such position. Also really awesome signature gather moves, love to trick opponent's with it.
Runner ups: A.Wiggins (almost as good as R.Gay) , K.Leonard (great defense, but can't get him going on offense at times) .
Kevin Martin
I find him best shooter in the game. He's also tall and quick which helps on both ends in the floor and i really like his dunking package with quick simple dunks leaving no chance for last moment defelections on the break.
Runner ups: K.Korver (kinda better shooter, but hes quite slower and is worse in creating own basket) , J.Butler (great perimeter defender) .
Rajon Rondo
My favourite point guard in NBA besides retired ones. Got great disadvantage of a bad shot, but you can overcome it a bit with mastering his release and knowing his hot spots. Besides that he is elite playmaker, can make those risky passes and awesome to run fast breaks with him. Another strenth he got is defense, you can put him against any back court scorer. You really want to adjust whole playstyle to fit him in the team and build offense around him distributing ball to the go-to offense players.
Runner ups: R***bio (awesome pass-first pg as well), J.Teague (my favourite athletic combo pg) ;
That's kinda favorite starting 5 players for me, might post favorite role players as well later.

. I really loved to play with celtics before rondo transfered to mavs and j.green to grizzlies, was nicely balanced team.
