NBA 2016-17 PEEHS - Page 10 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Our next incorrect is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Russell Westbrook is a maniac baller, but he can't do it all. They have posted a respectable DRtg that is currently 11th in the league.

And last but not least, it's our bubble team for this question. The Western Conference finalists the last two years, the Golden State Warriors, comfortably have the best Net Rtg in the league, but their DRtg checks in at 9th, just missing out for this question.

The SHEEP answer for this question was played by a whopping 10 of you. The Utah Jazz, led by the 9-figure 7-footer the Stifle Tower, have posted a DRtg of 104.85, good for 5th in the league.

Our next-most popular answer is my beloved Atlanta Hawks, who were 1st in this category under 100 as recently as a week ago. Unfortunately, they haven't seemed to be able to get their heads out of their asses on the court and are in a bit of a skid right now. But they're still good enough to be 3rd in the league in DRtg.

Question 5 closes with 4 aces.

The Charlotte Hornets have been playing pretty well lately. They're currently 7th in DRtg.

The Memphis Grizzlies just lost Mike Conley, which seems unfair, given the amount of injuries that team always seems to be saddled with. However, the Grit n Grind Grizzlies have a DRtg that's good for 6th in the league.

Checking in at 2nd in the league in DRtg, it's the "FORM A ****ING WALL!" Detroit Pistons. They've been playing pretty well, and just got Reggie Jackson back, will this be the year they make some noise in the East? Time will tell.

And now, our final ace, leading the league in DRtg, just barely behind the Warriors in Net Rtg, it's the Los Angeles Clippers! They keep the faith in their guys, and keep running it back, hoping for a few of the breaks to go their way in the playoffs. The regular season means basically nothing to them, and whether this season will be a success comes down to the playoffs. I'm excited to find out.

Pacers was an ace-hunt. Wouldn't even have gotten that.

Kicking us off once again, it's our ol' pal trollface. He once again selected Sonny Weems, a guard for the 76ers.

Weems still has yet to log an NBA minute, so he checks in at 0 steals.

Our award for face-meltiest answer (non-trollface division) goes to 2cards2come. He selected Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, a 2nd year forward for the Nets. He has 18 steals on the year so far.

Our next-most face-meltiest answer goes to chuckleslovakian. He loves him some UK dudes, and he selected Tyler Ulis. Unfortunately for him, Ulis is only playing about 11 minutes a night. He has 15 steals on the young season.

Our most popular incorrect answer is usually a good bet to be near the top of the steals leaderboard. Ricky Rubio has 25 steals so far.

Our next most popular incorrect was selected by 3 of you. Russell Westbrook does just about everything else to the extreme, and his steals totals is respectable, but not enough for this question. He has 31 so far, just missing the cutoff.

Our next incorrect is Paul George. He also just missed for this question, with 34 steals on the year.

Our next incorrect is the Celtic, Jae Crowder. He missed some time in the beginning of the year, and has 16 steals on the year.

All the remaining incorrect answers are would-be aces. Boogie's defensive efforts come and go, but DeMarcus Cousins has a pretty respectable steals total, at 28. Unfortunately it's not enough for this question.
