2014-15 NBA GM Survey

[T_L_P]

Too many categories to quote. Spurs are favourites, LeBron is still the best in the world, Paul/Harden/LeBron/Aldridge-Griffin/Howard are the best at their positions, Duncan is b2b best leader, Kevin Durant is most clutch, and Popovich runs the coaching ranks.

yeah, Durant's career sub 40% shooter in the clutch

In his fairness, Kobe's and LeBron's clutch numbers aren't good either (At least for LeBron in the regular season), but he's not clutch... Few players today I would classify as clutch.

These surveys never mean shit and the GM's don't actually take them seriously.

Why is LeBron the overwhelming favorite to win MVP?

Curry and Westbrook got raped by Paul in best PG discussion.

Best SG discussion is a pure joke if Derozan gets no love and fvcking Squidward is number 2

lol @ LeBron being best perimeter defender

The GM's don't take these surveys seriously at all. I think a good chunk of them select options they don't actually support.

Right, and if they followed any agenda that you were pushing, you'd be the one making this thread with smiley faces everywhere

You mean something like this?

Which player would you want taking a shot with the game on the line?
1. Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City -- 76.9%
2. Kobe Bryant, L.A. Lakers -- 7.7%

I don't care, because it's the damn GM survey and these GM's often have a vested interest (even if it is ever so slight) in the public believing one thing as opposed to another. Usually that means the GM's go with the stereotypical choices even if they don't believe it.

Because the media votes on the award.

It's the same reason Durant puts up 32/7/6 on 50/39/88 last season in the Western Conference with either Westbrook or 2 starters out almost all year yet nearly every player rank list will have LeBron as #1. He bailed to Cleveland so the attention is on him again.

Please...

Gms go with the obvious answer because its usually just that. Obvious.

You just dont like some of the selections because they conflict with your opinion on what informed people believe.

If they picked Westbrook over Paul there isnt a chance in hell you dont cite it in future arguments on the subject.

The only thing I need to cite in the Westbrook vs Paul debates is Westbrook murdering Paul in the playoffs. Where it matters.

Yup, easily top 5 We gotta remember that GMs did NOT take into account the defensive side of the ball for this survey...

IMO it's fine.
