Wes vs Aaron Affalo was basically a toss up but great Wes comments.

Jimmy B swept DeMar DeRozan

Wade also swept James Harden for career projections, and most had it pretty easily Wade.

Cool to see all 3 in same conversation.

Robb: Jimmy Butler. DeRozan has made strides this season, but lacks the kind of consistency on both ends of the floor you want to see in a shooting guard. Meanwhile, Butler is younger, a better shooter, and already has proven he can handle big-time games against quality opposition.

Haha, because the 37 days makes a huge difference!

I've never heard of Ethan Sherwood Strauss (sounds like a Dickens character), but I loved his comments. Especially these...

"Also, I just don't buy that Afflalo suddenly became an All-Star level guard. There's a "looter in a riot" aspect to his ascendance."

"Also, Wade's defense at Harden's age (24) was approximately a thousand times better (advanced stat)."

[Wade for President]

Wade's recent knee troubles, America's hatefest for the Heat, and LBJ, have made some people forget how big a bad ass DWade was early in his career.  That '06 NBA Finals goes down as one of the most dominant individual series performances in NBA history.

Portland's play and relatively young (and balanced) nucleus, is going to keep Wes in the spotlight for the forseeable future.

Ha good point didn't even pick up on that.

On the concept of age. Crazy were going to be playing that scrub Gibbs a few times this year....he's older than Jimmy B who graduated and is in his 3rd NBA season lol.

Yeah, you add a von to that name and you've got someone special.

Wes had three votes while Arron had two.

MU: 3-0 in the 5 on 5.
