JR's Roundtable Gambling Edition
Hello fellas, how is life? Anything exciting going on soon?
Mike - Hello. Life is great. Not much planned until the holidays. My daughter is crawling and climbing on anything she can get her hands onto which keeps us busy. She keeps us busy for sure.
Royal - What's good, just bought a Llama cause my ostrich died, but when I walk my goldfish he gets jealous.
Diego - Nah Same old same …still suck at fbb and losing money.
Eddy - Had a fun weekend with the dolphins game and fishing multiple times. Going on soon, well, Tua should be back.
So we are more than halfway through the season, how has your team lived up to your own expectations?
Mike - Pretty on par with our expectations. Don Nelson started very slow, but has picked it up and looks like the star we thought we were getting. I’m really loving that 1-2 punch of Nelson and Bellamy. Good core to build around.
Royal - These dudes suck, started off good 2 sims fooled ne and went to shit. Not cool.
Diego - My team has been so mediocre…Lennie seems to have taken a step back and the team keeps having 1-6 and 2-7 sims.Need to make some moves.
Eddy - About what I thought we would be closer to 40 wins not missing Bailey for 20 games but that’s ok.
What are your plans for this upcoming offseason?
Mike - Next season I’ll try to add a third piece to go with Bellamy and Nelson or if I get bored, blow it up. I probably would need to get Frazier in order to do so. No rush to blow it up since my core is so young and locked up. We are in a good spot.
Royal - Draft a bust, strike out in FA, and trade for a overages expiring veteran.
Diego - If my team keeps sucking I might have to blow it up and get CYd.We’ll see how the rest do the seasons goes.
Eddy - Gonna try to get back my pick from you and rebuild.
Who would you chose to represent each conference in the finals if the playoffs started today?
Mike - The Spurs and the Raps. The Hawks could have given the Raps a run for their money but the injury to Sam hurts. Not sure they can overcome that. In the West, the Spurs are unreal. Yah yah, they stole Oscar. That always helps. But they had a great core in place before that and have done a good job in consolidating assets and building a powerhouse. I’m not sure anyone can compete with them out West.
Royal - Ah, I would choose Sonics and Nets, let those fuckers put on a comedy show.
Diego - That’s easy the Raptors and the spurs …elite teams.One day I hope to be as great as them.
Eddy - I would say the Raptors vs the Suns.
Rick Barry and Billy Cunningham both look like elite talents this far, but who was the steal of this past draft?
Mike - Steal? Hmm.. probably John Wendelken. He looks like an interesting guard. I also like Somerset on Houston. Two interesting Pgs.
Royal - Probably Ron Watts, dudes lucky he didn't get drafted and remains a FA, fucker can escape this shit league and be free.
Diego - Bill Bradley of course …dude looks like a great glue guy ..Maybe a Mark Madson kinda elite talent.
Eddy - The steak of the draft was the superstar that was drafted at pick 5. Dick Van Ardsdale is here to stay.
Speaking if drafts, this next seasons draft hasn’t dropped, who are you most looking forward to entering the league that could possibly be in this draft ?
Mike - Well, the file is uploaded. Not sure if it’s final or not but Frazier and Bing look like the first and second picks. Both will be elite superstar PGs.
Royal - Probably some dude named Dick...damn just looked at 1966 draft Dick Snyder it is.
Diego - I want Micheal Jordan …is he close yet????what year we in …tired of all these Dicks.
Eddy - Walt Frazier looks to be in this draft. Clyde is fun.
This is my only second season back, idk how many seasons i missed, how did y’all let braz win this many championships?
Mike - I just came back a few seasons ago and have been tanking and finding my place the last few seasons. His core was in place well before I came back. But looking at Ahsan extending his window with the Kojis trade… I’ll assume it’s been deals like that.
Royal - Must agree I've never seen him sin anything until recently so beats me. Even Essen and Diego won tho so yea shit league. Did you know they call Eddy elite around here? Shits cray
Diego - Braz is just that good.He took Steve’s talent and became the best Gm.Cleveland still rocks though.
Eddy - He got good trades and built a nice team around his superstars
6 weeks into the NFL, this season has been wild, what is the most surprising thing to you?
Mike - The Giants … and Jets. Both teams look… good? The Giants especially. They’ve actually beaten some solid teams. I’m interested to see if they can keep it up.
Royal - Pretty surprised I haven't hit a massive parley already, this shit is dumb. Niner sucks tho. So who cares about football. NBA time.
Diego - The eagles wtf …Hursts I thought was a fringe starter but Brown has really helped that team….6-0
Eddy - Thought the Broncos would be amazing while the Seahawks would be battling for the number one pick.
NBA starts tomorrow, what are you looking forward to the most?
Mike - Obviously my Knicks. It’ll be fun to see them play with a Legit PG for once in Jalen Brunson. We no longer have to watch Alex Burks man the point.
Royal - I can tell you what I'm not looking forward to, yall dumbasses hyping up the next and being disappointed when they suck. Not ready for the 'Trade Randle' and 'Randle is elite' convos.. go Bulls tho. Pray for Lonzo.
Diego - I just want my clippers to be healthy and Wall to do the Dougie..
Eddy - Heat winning it all.
So i have bet with each one of yall, when you place a parlay what goes into picking the legs? Do you go for the home run or play for small wins?
Mike - Small and safe. Still doesn’t work. I stay away from the home run parlays like Diego’s last ditch 8 leggers or royals +15000 parlays. One day, one of those will hit though.
Royal - Nah bro there's no guessing in this shit for me unless I got money to play with. I give you whole heartedly researched picks. I wanna win just as bad as you.
Diego - I love some 8 leggers baby …Live rich or die trying.I am very poor lately ..down bad …bout to drop my Venmo for donations.
Eddy - Usually whatever I have a good feeling about which isn’t good for betting. Bigger cash out always calls my attention
Now it’s time for y’all to ask me something if you want!
Mike - Why’d you decide to come back to sims?
JR - I honestly dont know. Its an addiction I guess is the simple answer.
Royal - When God created man did he create the Cock or Balls 1st?
JR - Obviously the balls came first.
Diego - Why do you think Barrett is so good ???He kinda a basic bitch …like a girl with a nice body but a butter face 😂😂😂😂
JR - If I'm being honest those are my favorite girls. Body>Face IMO. Barrett>Clippers.
Eddy - Is Julius Randle a superstar?
JR - Nah not a superstar but he is better then Tyler Herro at basketball.
