THE RESULTS ARE INIllinois Smith posted:Here's the complete list of all 185 players who received votes this year: So how does this work? If you want to participate, send me a list of your 20 favorite active NBA players. This means that whoever you have on your ballot must have played in at least one game during the 2014-2015 season, or be expected to do so. You can take the selection process as seriously as you want, this is all in good fun (please note how the thread title says "favorite" instead of "best". This will probably be important later on). You can either pm me your list or send it to wheelchairmosh@gmail.com Here's a template for your list, please send it to me in this format so I don't have to count whether everyone really put 20 guys on their ballot. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. The list will be tabulated as follows: The top player on your list gets 20 points, the second one gets 19, all the way down to #20, who gets 1 point. If you send in an incomplete list it will damage your top choices. For example, the top guy on a list only counting 15 guys gets 15 points instead of 20. Can I stuff my ballot with all my favorite role players and garbage time superstars? Sure! Like I said, you can take this as seriously as you want to. What about guys who are injured or playing in China or whatever? We'll count them as long as they're expected to make it back onto an NBA roster reasonably soon. These will be judged on a case by case basis. Can I be an extra special snowflake and vote for WNBA players? You can if you want to, just be warned that in this case I'll be flipping a coin and may or may not deduct your highest-placed actual NBA player the amount of points you gave him. What's the deadline? Last time a lot of people said they missed the thread so I'm putting this one up early to give you guys plenty of time. The cutoff is February 12 after Bulls vs Cavs ends, I'll be posting the countdown over the All-Star break and plan to make this an annual thing after forgetting about it last year. Speaking of, who won last time? McGeeMania was in full effect two years ago! code:Please don't post your ballots in this thread until the countdown is over, it makes it more fun for everyone. Instead, use this thread to campaign for people you think might get overlooked. Use all the gifs, articles, stats and silly pictures at your disposal (or send them to me along with your ballot ).

I'm torn on whether votes for Nash should count since he's not expected back but I'm slightly leaning towards allowing it since he at least played in some preseason games. Thoughts?

Spacebump posted:Maybe the rule should be all players that currently hold contracts with NBA teams? Alfred P. Pseudonym posted:Is Gilbert Arenas still getting paid? I'll allow Nash votes, especially since it's probably the last time people are gonna get to vote for him anyway.  Spacebump, send me your changes. If anyone was wondering I currently have 21 ballots, which is about half the total from two years ago. Keep them coming!

bump one week left, 34 ballots received. I'm pretty sure next year I'll put the voting period back to a week or so, there seem to be more or less the same participants as last time. Illinois Smith fucked around with this message at 12:05 on Feb 5, 2015 |

Just a heads up: Papa Nurkic is great but he is NOT an active NBA player. Also, if you put him on the same list as his kid it means that you're actually using him to steal a point from his family.  This may or may not result in him hunting you down and using those giant fists to beat you into a fine pulp.
