Dammit, I REALLY wanted Shamrock. Ah well, Davey Boy will do.

I'd love Michaels on my roster but I doubt I'm lucky enough to get #1 twice in a row, however he has a bunch of guys I'd like to have so I like this idea a lot.

My tag team jobbers who'll put on fun undercard matches: Los Conquistadors

Finishing 9-0 at home is pretty damn impressive. And Hakeem contained Chamberlain more or less while Payton abused Frazier defensively. The old saying is true, defense wins. Even online.

I don't like Vick but I agree with the pick. Dude did quite a lot without a good wide-out (let alone a good #1) and without a good O-line, so it's interesting to see what he'd do surrounded by talent.

Ryan Longwell, K He was consistent and accurate in a place it's very hard to be consistent and accurate. If he can excel in Green Bay, he can excel in any weather my team may come upon. and Todd Sauerbrun, P Before the roids, he had a very high yard average per kick and made a bunch of Pro Bowls and All-Pro lists so good for him. He's a punter, what more do I need really?

Saturday drafts blow. I'm out of town that day so this sucks.

There's a few of my picks missing on the first page. Akbar is missing (like everyone said) as is the Calgary Saddledome.

Just some predictions (I did well last round cept my own series): CanadianChris in 7 MFerXtreme in 5

Once again, if anyone wants any line-up/minute changes before the semi-finals, PM me. And on a personal note, I'm disappointed. I thought my defense and rebounding would beat MJ but guess not.

I'll try to go through all 3 remaining quarterfinal games today.

Quick note from looking at the boxscores: Gilmore and Malone are a scary duo and the best front court that got drafted.

And thus begins round 2, led off by the #1 seed: Game 1 (The Forum in Los Angeles) Steviekick 123, 909 117 Top Performers: Erving (17pts, 4rbs, 8ast)/Johnson (16pts, 9rbs, 14ast) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 Game 2 (The Forum in Los Angeles) Steviekick 109, 909 94 Top Performers: Gilmore (14pts, 18rbs, 6ast, 2blk, 2st)/Johnson (10pts, 7rbs, 8ast) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 Game 3 (The Spectrum in Philadelphia) 909 109, Steviekick 103 Top Performers: Johnson (15pts, 12rbs, 8ast)/Gilmore (20pts, 15rbs, 4ast, 2blk, 2st) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 Game 4 (The Spectrum in Philadelphia) 909 120, Steviekick 115 Top Performers: Johnson (11pts, 9rbs, 11ast) & McHale (27pts, 6brs)/Erving (22pts, 4rbs, 5ast) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 Game 5 (The Forum in Los Angeles) Steviekick 116, 909 107 Top Performers: Malone (22pts, 10rbs)/Johnson (19pts, 4rbs, 14ast) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 Game 6 (The Spectrum in Philadelphia) 909 99, Steviekick 104 Top Performers: McHale (28pts, 9rbs)/Gilmore (21pts, 22rbs) & Malone (15pts, 15rbs) http://www.whatifsports.com/NBA/boxscore.a...&teamfee=-1 SERIES: Steviekick (11) defeats 909 (1) 4 games to 2

Well, in the first round I just used write ups to distribute minutes simply because waiting for 15 people to send lists (especially when some didn't even know how this would work) would've been way too much hassle.

Ok, I'll edit up. And actually this applies to everyone left: IF THERE IS A SPECIFIC WAY YOU WANT MINUTES ON YOUR TEAM ALLOTED THAT'S DIFFERENT THAN YOU'VE SEEN SO FAR, PM ME THE CHANGES YOU WANT.

I call shenanigans if your team wins, only because you have Jordan In game 7, he won in double overtime despite Jordan fouling out in the 4th quarter. Now that every team has been in action (except one), any round 2 predictions? Personally I'm guessing: Steviekick over 909 in 6 Me over MFer in 7 CC over Brooklyn in 5 Gert over VX in 7
