Better find a different argument.
Mashburn.
Love the going back and forth. Here to say, I am reading it all.

Wall/Cousins were dang near unstoppable on the court together. Is Washington better fit than Patterson? Meeks and Reeves on paper are great, but, can they defend at the level needed? How important was Miller in starting lineup- someone who didn’t need to score.
I’ll assume the Goose would extend his game, be able to shoot. We compare this team to the almost undefeated Cats as we compare WCS with Towns vs Bowie. Can Bowie play beside WCS like Towns? Delk/Givens vs Harrison twins. How valuable was Ulis off the bench

My team has defense, experience, and multiple players that have been the best player on a championship team. My opponents team lacks experience, defense, and true leadership. It’s beautiful on paper and going to be the best offense ever assembled against average teams, but I do not believe a team built on one and done players at its core can pull off a victory with the squad I built on the biggest stage.
As a Statistician, I have to point out your flaws, sorry.
1) last year we were a perimeter oriented team, attempting the most 3's by a UK team since the early 90's.
2) same for all 10 teams, these are all-star teams, where your starting lineup (probably most of your team) were all the 1st or 2nd option on their individual UK teams. What's that mean? If they played together, it would be less shots for all, and thus less FTs by all (there is only 1 ball).
@Son_Of_Saul , you’re running away with it. Fantastic job constructing your team! Again, I truly believe mine wins, but honestly, I think I’d much rather watch yours play. There’s no amount of effort that can bring me back from this defect. I tip my cap.
Actually, Meeks was a good defender. Maybe he did less of it his JR year, when we relied upon him so much on offense. But I remember him playing as a FR (remember Tubby didn't play FR a lot, unless they could defend) mainly because of his defense.
Uh...Bowie played beside Turpin, so yeah he could play beside Willie.
I did vote for @drcats2013 - I do believe he matches up well- and think additions of Quickley and Bledsoe add firepower similar to Ulis and Booker off the bench.
Overall, agree with the assessment veteran, experience along with free throws (sorry PJ but 8-20 is unacceptable- i know an outlier) and ball control in a close game tends to favor his team. Delk, Givens two All Amercian guards with two elite defenders with range in the lane.

BBN, bring me back! Let’s do the impossible. We don’t want a bunch of Cal one and dones winning this. Vote for Goose, Delk, Bowie and company to do what we all know they WOULD do; win.
Went with Dr Cat. I can’t bet against the duo of Delk and Goose, who both delivered offensively in a massive way, in Title games, when given the opportunity.
Add Wah Wah Jones at the 4, and it is hard for me to see this group losing a championship game.
I get that Wah Wah was 6’4”, but so was Charles Barkley. Wah Wah might have been the best all around athlete we ever had, and all he did was win championships.
I would slot him beside Bowie, let SGA set the action, and call it a day.

Like seeing the Wah Wah love. He and Cawood Ledford are legends in my hometown.
Congrats to @Son_Of_Saul for winning the championship
@drcats2013 no shame in 2nd place.
Thanks again everyone for participating and until next time

I'm not.
You have a heck of a team.
Many thanks to you for making this round memorable, engaging, and fun.
Same to @DraftCat for putting this thing together. All of the teams were loaded, and I had a lot of fun going up against some of my favorite posters.
I loved my team. In the end, they got it done.
Until next time, fellas...
Just an FYI usually I get asked when is the next draft.
I don't normally or if ever have had a draft during UK Basketball season. So we are likely looking at May of 2025 and I've been itching to do another baseball draft as it's been a very long time.

Ohhh I love it, can it be an all time pro draft? I’d love to do an NBA draft and have people vote on that too.
SOS in a route. Too big to rig!
The funniest thing I’ve ever seen here was when I called Pitino a loser. Drcats rushed in and said “people calling others losers are usually the losers”. I quickly searched his name and the word loser. Do that and you'll see him calling multiple posters fing losers in a nasty way over and over. Nothing funnier than hypocrisy. Hilarious!!
2nd place is the first loser - Ricky Bobby.
Well done, 🆘.
