Forum Game $15 Who's On Your Team?

[42N8Bounce]

I've seen multiple variations of this game on the internet, but I'm putting my spin on the players/values.

You have $15 to spend.

The player is evaluated during their time as a Blazer (PER as a Blazer shown below for reference).



Who's on your team?

 

[42N8Bounce]

My picks:
Dame ($5)
Sabonis ($4)
Deni ($3)
Clingan ($2)
Bates ($1)

Oh yeah....

 

[Road Ratt]

Sabonis ($4)
Porter ($4)
Avdija ($3)
Kersey ($3)
Bates ($1)

 

[BigGameDamian]

Dame, Clyde, Sabonis, Deni, Bates

 

[Chris Craig]

Dame
Paxon
Deni
Toumani
Lucas

 

[riverman]

Dame (5)
Lamarcus (4)
Camara (1)
Deni (3)
Clingan (2)
I could easily replace Clingan with Pryzbilla for (1) and Bates as my 6th man for (1) ...actually that's probably a better team. that would make 6 players for 15 bucks

 

[riverman]

everybody has a really good lineup so far

 

[42N8Bounce]

Dame, Clyde, Sabonis, Deni, Bates

I think you went over the salary cap. But nice line up!

 

[42N8Bounce]

Dame
Paxon
Deni
Toumani
Lucas

Nice lineup. I think Paxson is undervalued.

 

[blazerkor]

I'd go big and versatile with my center setting up the offense.

Walton (5)
Cliffy (3)
Kersey(3)
Nico (2)
Wes (2)

 

[PDXFonz]

Lillard (5)
Deni (3)
Batum (2)
Przybilla (1)
Sabonis (4)

Twin towers

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Cliff Avdija Drexler Wes Batum

The defense and floor spacing would be nuts. Could switch 1-5 on D and drain tons of threes. Still plenty of offensive creation. I dont think any other groups could compete with these guys with 2025 rules.

If it's 70s or 80s rules the ideal team would be different.

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

I would build two different teams for two eras.
If i was building for the 80’s-90’s:
Walton $5
Sabonis $4
Cliffy $3
Cj $2
Camara $1
Size and post game with cj knocking down the outside shot and Camara on point of attack.

If i am building the team for todays game:
Clyde $5
Dame $5
Sharpe $1
Cliffy $3
Camara $1
Good spread of offense and mobile/switchable defense.

Wow. I like that lineup. Creative. Athletic and versatile.

I like this lineup. I was trying hard to find a workable lineup with both Dame and Drexler.

I get it given the list of options at the C position regardless of cost; but the Vanilla Gorilla for $1… What a steal! Look at that bloody mouth. What a legend!

It looks like you need to take out a loan!

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

PG - CJ $2
SG - Shaedon $1
SF - Clyde $5
PF - Deni $3
C - LaMarcus $4

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

There really needs to be a PG in the bargain basement here. Blake would be a good choice at $1, and maybe Andre Miller for $2? B-Roy might switch those though.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Here's a breakdown of how often a player is selected to a lineup so far:
Deni: 70%
Dame: 50%
Drexler: 40%
Batum: 40%
Sabas: 30%
Robinson: 30%
Camara: 30%
Walton: 20%
Kersey: 20%
Paxson: 20%
Clingan: 20%
Bates: 20%
Aldridge: 20%
Matthews: 20%
Sharpe: 20%
Porter: 10%
Lucas: 10%
Przybilla: 10%
Patterson: 10%
CJ: 10%

Nice representation by the current squad!

I'm a bit surprised to see Kiki not selected by anyone yet. Granted, there's a ton of talent at the top of this board, but he was a hell of a player. Especially for only $3.

Good call. On my first pass, I had Blake in there but changed it to Sharpe to get 5 current Blazers as options.

Supposedly, it was something said by Blazer employees during Allen's big spending era.

Tlong is saying, he's going SPAM and ignoring the $15 cap limit.

My screw the luxury tax Trader Bob lineup would be expensive and have a bench
Walton/Sabonis
Aldridge/Sheed
Dame/Andre Miller
BRoy/Deni
Clyde/Kiki

Can't argue with that lineup. The only change I would make is to sub Strickland for Miller. But looking at the comparison, they're pretty darn close.



I'd also probably start Sheed over Aldridge.

 

[BigGameDamian]

We should do one of these but with the worst starting five.
