celtics being down 10 to GSW is about 25 less than I figured they'd be down with a quarter and a half left

hey is there enough bandwidth for us to do some sort of top players of all time poll ... or is one of the things that makes ilh great the lack of those sorts of polls in contrast to the other ILX boards? What do you guys think?
― polyphonic, Monday, 26 January 2015 19:52 (nine years ago) link
I think I def associate ILH with a very being in the moment ethos

what about top players of right now?

how would that even go though, is someone gonna vote for kent bazemore in their top 10?
― k3vin k., Monday, 26 January 2015 20:02 (nine years ago) link
It would go like all the other polls probably, devolving into fights that are either fun or petty or both.

id participate in a poll like that. could be fun
― Spottie, Monday, 26 January 2015 20:37 (nine years ago) link
if we did a poll it should be a list of who we think will be the top players in 5 years rather than top players now, that would be much more interesting
― k3vin k., Monday, 26 January 2015 20:43 (nine years ago) link
i'd personally only want to do that one if we restricted it to players currently on nba rosters
― polyphonic, Monday, 26 January 2015 20:45 (nine years ago) link
yeah that would be fine
― k3vin k., Monday, 26 January 2015 20:46 (nine years ago) link
maybe do 3 years then
I say we should each post our own list of who we think will be the top players in a few years. maybe make it more verifiable by saying who in the league today who hasn't been an all star yet, will be in the 2018 all-star game. and then we slag off on each others lists, like we usually do.
― Aimless, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:11 (nine years ago) link
I say we should each post our own list
individual ballots at the end, like we always do
maybe make it more verifiable by saying who in the league today who hasn't been an all star yet
unnecessary restriction imo
will be in the 2018 all-star game.
really don't give a fuck about the asg
― polyphonic, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:13 (nine years ago) link
but also I think it would be fun to speculate about which current all stars will still be good / around / etc.
― polyphonic, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:19 (nine years ago) link
but just saying so-and-so will be "a top player" leads to nothing new we don't already do all the time anyway, which is argue over relative merits of players and disagree with one another. the asg metric at least allows the possibility of doing a victory dance.
― Aimless, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:20 (nine years ago) link
there are all sorts of stats and awards that people use to argue about the relative merits of individual players, and few of them are fundamentally less indicative of ability that all-star game appearances.
― polyphonic, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:21 (nine years ago) link
fine with me if you suggest some better way
― Aimless, Monday, 26 January 2015 21:25 (nine years ago) link
okay you talked me out of wanting to do this

i think maybe a ballot version of your favorite nba players for watching could be interesting
― o-TIM-DUNCAN-SAD-facebook.jpg (Clay), Monday, 26 January 2015 21:30 (nine years ago) link
there'd be some pretty universal choices and some regional idiosyncrasies and some pretty personal choices that'd be given voice imo
― o-TIM-DUNCAN-SAD-facebook.jpg (Clay), Monday, 26 January 2015 21:31 (nine years ago) link
i actually think "best" would be better if we do the 3 year thing. "favorite" would dilute the ballots too much. we're only gonna get like 10 people voting
