[Build A Team 4.0] Discussion Thread Part 3 - I LOVE MY TEAM

If this was like 1996, the Suns would be unstoppable.

The best teams out West are

1. Denver Nuggets
2. Portland Trailblazers
3. New Orleans Hornets
4. San Antonio Spurs
5. La Lakers or LA Clippers (Chris Paul factor)

I would to see how my team would matchup against the Blazers. They have two good big men, but I'm not sure how their bigs would compliment each other. That would be a pretty good matchup though.

Andre Miller vs Derrick Rose
Richard Hamilton vs Mickeal Pietrus
Shane Battier vs Wesley Johnson
Chris Kaman vs Zach Randolph
Andrew Bogut vs Greg Oden

If both teams were completely healthy, I honestly think it would come down to how Wesley perform. Rose is better than Dre, but I think that would be played to a standstill. Pietrus can contain Rip, Zbo and Kaman would be an interesting matchup, and so would Oden vs Bogut. It would come down to if Wes can take advantage of the good looks he'll get from Rose/Zbo/Oden.

That would definitely be a good game.

Trading Rodrigue Beaubois, plus for a legit center.

I feel than Gentry is perfect for this team because he is like Mike D'Antoni minus a little offense, and adding a lot more defense. And for Gentry's offense you need shooters just like you do in SSOL, so I feel he is the perfect fit for my team.

Hey thanks for the write up. I knew you were probably tired of judging so I asked if anyone else wanted to judge but I appreciate it anyways.

You have two legit centers.. :eek1:

Bynum is top 10 center in the league when not injured and Thabeet maybe hasn't been really shown in the NBA yet, but can still be a good backup, and both aren't undersized. I don't understand your logic but I guess I'll have to wait and see what move you make.

I like both moves. Gentry is the perfect coach for you. Better than D'Antoni IMO.

Also Babbit is good value that late. Nice picks.

PS. not a problem justaknicksfan

Ra - you've manage to change the entire complexion of your team with 2 trades. Instantly better.

And on a personal note, classes start for me this week so I won't be able to spend as much time on this board. I'll probably hold off on releasing a tracker for a bit.

We should also set a day for roster locks so judging can begin ASAP after the draft and auction.

Yeah, thanks. All this time I was just collecting enough young pieces to make a team through trades. I think that I kept a lot of quality young pieces also for the future. At worst I would have a ton of prospects but at best I would have a championship teamwho is still good in future sense.

Also I agree on the classes thing also. Strating soon so won't be as active.

***BREAKING NEWS***

The Dallas Mavericks GM and President of Operations, swisscheeseD, has decided to step down from his position effective immediately. A source close to the situation has stated the resignation had been spurned by family issues back home and its reported that swiss has already left on a flight back to NY a few days ago.

swisscheeseD would like to thank Mark Cuban for the opportunity to head the Mavericks, and hopes the next GM is able to continue his vision moving forward. His apologies are forwarded to the remaining GM's and to the mods who have put their time and effort into making these BAT's happen. We look forward to working with you in the future!
