Camby is perpetually underrated because heâ€™s not flashyâ€¦ but heâ€™s a good midrange shooter for a big man, good rebounder, and very good shot blockerâ€¦ now if he can just stay healthy for the whole season.

so true!

I agree precisely with your starters. The bench, eh, much prefer Ray Allen over AI and probably take Elton Brand over Amare, who is living large on Nash-driven screen/rolls. Your lineup beats the real one hands-down!

Good picks… I’d still go with Yao to start, but he’s hurt so that doesn’t really matter.

We could probably just make a whole Phoenix Suns drinking game, eh?

I’m in!

Props on the Josh Howard pick – he’s stepped up his game a couple levels this year and deserves some all-star love. And I can get behind Camby for starting center, but itâ€™s McGrady who I just got to say no too. Iâ€™m still upset that he absolutely killed my fantasy teamâ€™s percentages at the beginning of the year. Let me nominate Kevin Martin in his place.

You get seven or eight friends together and each person gets a different player. That way there are at least some breaks and the rules are more intense…
Steve Nash
Shawn Marion
Amare Stoudemire
Raja Bell
Boris Diaw
Leandro Barbosa

Female Participants or Lightweight Drinkers could be
James Jones
Marcus Banks

Only question, should we make ridiculous rules like State of the Union drinking games? Or realistic accomplishable rules?

Let’s work out the rules in the forum then debut it on the mainpage!

We could probably just make a whole Phoenix Suns drinking game, eh? And I’m guessing they’re going to be on national TV a lot… so plenty of opportunities.

That Nuggets picture is awesome. I said as much in the fora as well.

Also, new drinking game: Any time Marion gets a stat without dribbling (it’s okay if he touches the ball, as long as he doesn’t dribble). Steals only count if he passes immediately. Add in: Finish your drink whenever Hubie Brown says “remember Marion does all this without having any plays run for him all game.”

Remember, you must be 21 or older to play this drinking game in the US. Unless you have your parents permission, I think.
