Pistons: C - Doleac (6'11", 262) PF - Manning (6'9", 234)
Pacers: C - Cato (6'11", 275) PF - O'neal (6'11", 242)
Bucks: C - Ferry (6'11", 238) PF - Okur (6'11", 249)
Raptors: C - Yao (7'6", 310) PF - Finley (6'9", 251)

That's just the eastern conference, but I think I made my point.

Average (for starters in the eastern conference):
C: 7'1", 270 lbs
PF: 6'10", 240 lbs

And last year Okafor's fouls per minute was actually less than dalembert's.  And in the playoffs I have had Okafor guard Dwight Howard and Amare Stoudemire to very good success.

Well....I have the shortest starting froncourt in the East   . It was even shorter until the last couple sims because I was starting Eric Fleisher (6'9", 238) over Nazr.

yea you proved my pont also. i am counting maybe 2 C who are good enough to score on emeka but about 7 pf who can.
Also the def is at the Pf position way better than at the C very generaly all are at A-

[NetsGM]

Defense is about even at both positions.

As for the opposition, Emeka's the reigning DPOY.  bring it.

He can't touch Yao.

You moving Yao to PF?

And he did a fine job defensively on Yao last year.  Yao just held him to zilch offensively.

Emeka was injured this year for both of our games.  Yao torched Lo, but I won both games.

Yao was still putting up 30/15 against Emeka.

[NetsGM]

last year Yao put up 25.7 pts, 11.5 rebounds on 38.7% shooting in 4 games against the nets.   Not bad defense against a guy who averaged 31 pts, 13 rebounds on 51% shooting for the season.

Ha, touche. Where did you see that?

I agree, that is impressive.

[NetsGM]

Where did you see that?

Dude, I have stats on EVERYTHING.

It's part of how I knew to target Boykins.  Last year, while Boykins was a B defender, opposing starting PG's shot a respectable 44% against him, but only scored 12 points per 35 minutes and barely over 2 assists per turnover.

You own.

I don't have that much time.

[NetsGM]

Neither do I.  Takes me about 20 minutes/sim.

efficiency, php and sql.  powerful trio.

[RaptorsGM]

No idea what php or shql are.

[CelticsGM]

No idea what php or shql are.

Well, you did have all your jokers. So by playing the 50:50 from the 4 possible answers "efficiency", "php", "sql", "powerful trio" probably just "sql" and "powerful trio" would have remained.

And you know that it's not "powerful trio".

So SQL is the correct answer. It's a programmers language used to query databases. And we use it to query why Gasol is better than Curry (well, not that you even need a PC for that ...)
