DSL's Starting 5ive - Oct 10th 2008

Team 2 looks like the Knicks in you got a bunch of talent but big egos (danza who already game himself a knickname) and different styles of play from the free wheeling Ralph and Danza to the system style of Precise and Pappi Joe. Im expecting a 15 to 20 point win for team 1.

I don't care about the Position, I just want to experience it. Maybe later on I will have a preference. Hey! Pappi Joe and I can be in the same team...and set-up our plays in Spanish to confuse the "enemy". lol

Im sure not everyone will be there you should get a spot.

Its simple man - Ralph is a sharpshooter , Alsolidus is a playmaker - Pappi will set the pace and run the team to perfection while Precise and Myself handle the dirty work downlow. As for your 15-20pt win, unless Huda takes all the shots i'm not sure that is possible cause Huda can't hit his mid range jumper with Christiana Bosh jajaaj

hahah...i love the trash talking. I'll pull a Patrick Ewing and guarantee victory in our first battle!

If Coach Danza were to break it down......

C - Huda = Great perimiter shooter that rearly misses his shot. Playing Downlow will take away his key strength

PF - GD = Dude is good at playing downlow and will need to be double teamed at times. Like to play with his back to the basket and set up shop in the paint. Playing PF fits his style.

SF - McTavish = not sure i have played him in 2K so seeing that he is GD's family i would say he's not that good jajaja j/k

SG - SteelCity = Being isolated to one position does not fit his style. Unless that one player is LBJ or CB that can either slash to the hole or can shoot lights out. Will play good D but may be out of position a few times on O.

PG - Donkey = Kid is good and playing with his home team is a positive. Will be able to distribute the ball well and will take advantage of GD/Huda in the paint. Not sure his style will mesh well with Steel in the backcourt.

"They scared NOW...we gotta beast in TDANZA to throw the ball into...you think he gonna shoot but he really gonna dish....talk to me"

Yea Ike and Tina can take jumpers all day long its no answer for SHEEEEEED for THREEEEEEE

Danza good scouting except im the SF and my team game is completely different as I will stay in the system. But i would rather have a slasher.

If kapono doesnt work out for you theres always moon or graham and we might be able to move kapono to SG

I figured without a good athletic SF you would rather play the 2 and be a scorer. Kapono can shoot lights out but his style does not fit Steels game at all. Moon on the other hand might be the sleeper that Steel can tear it up with. Moon = very poor mans LBJ. Not sure about graham tho.

Either way DETROITTTTTTT BASKETBALLLLLL poses numerous mismatches that work in our favor.

Toranto might have the advantage downlow but with Sheed and a smooth rotaion of Brown - Maxiel - McDyss - Johnson and my boy Shamb Shiek there is no doubt (say it with me now) WE GOT THIS!!!!!

then we can play sheed at C and HERMOAN!!!!!!! at pf giving us two big bodies that can spread the floor and hit the 3. Toranto is going to try and run it but they aint the warriors and don't have Maniac Jay to coach them. Billups - RIP and The Prince match up against any 3 warm bodies you may try to put on the floor.

get em' coach Danza!

Yeah Danza must be dreaming with his scouting report on his own team but even the Lions thought they had a shot at the Superbowl in preseason. Hell I predict Danza will be trying to trade Precise midway through the first. And if the game past 10 we all know Ralph got a bedtime.

With that said - Whats the market Value for a player like Precise jajaja

I am dreaming.......just like i was when i selected Ben Rothlessburger as my starting QB Wheres Kyle when you need him

HAHAHHA LMAO...

I'm late to this party....just saw all these posts now...Love the scouting report TDIZZ...

It looks to be a battle. I am very very curious to see how Team 2 will jell. With that said, I'll just worry about Team 1. I am hoping we can jell as well. Our team understands the importance of team work and none of us were really dominant with only one player (except Donkey and Wade heheh) so this bodes well for the team aspect...

As for MacTavish...he is the secret weapon... He will be our XFactor heheheh... Even I don't know what to expect from him hahah. He's usually pretty skilled in whatever game he plays so it's all good...

Oct 7th can't come soon enough!!

G

Whoever does not have a team, just show up on Oct 10th and we will have you in as a sub for anyone who does not show up or is late to the party....

I'm going to put a voting button out there for the time we start Friday night's 5 on 5... Since I have school till 6, we can't set it up till like 730pm CST ok? Poll will be on the front page

Thanks,
G

looks like i got bumped to the bench real quick. oh well i guess i can be a roll man. maybe start my campaign of 6th man of tthe year

i think this is going to be good i am trying to do my one post a month so just stopping by see u next month but i will check every now and then

so while we r in the game can we all talk to each other or only the people on our team

don't know yet Ralph....we think we will be able to talk to our teammates, if not, then that will suck big time

from a podcast that I heard, everyone hears everyone. I heard these guys played the 5 on 5 and the dude was Lebron and had a fast break on Kobe. He dunked on Kobe and everyone was smack talking to the guy who was Kobe cause he just got dunked on .... should be a riot...
