Build-A-Team 15.0-Auction Style- Rules and Discussion **DRAFT IS OVER- Announcement on page 300**

More like "time to make trades to remove guys Knickstape doesn't like." I just look at overall team makeup. If a guy sucks and doesn't fit in, he sucks and doesn't fit in regardless of what I think about the guy.

I feel bad for the guy who has Monroe this year. That team is an automatic L in your books

yea I thought about that

[El Poochio]

damn time make trades for guys knickstape likes

Wade Baldwin price just rose up by %300

Nah. I like him more than DJ, but I see Baldwin as a more athletic Kirk Hinrich (peak) PG.

Good enough for me, my sneaky attempt was a success

Spacing at the 4/5 MIGHT be an issue, but I'm cool with the perimeter defense / general makeup for Monroe. Defensive anchors mean little if you have **** perimeter defenders (we saw this with capri bitch) - harder to hide bad perimeter defenders even if you have a defensive anchor. On the flip side, it's much easier to hide poor post defenders if you have great perimeter defenders because the defensive burden is less.

I've always thought this. Basically, defense starts on the perimeter but ends in the paint. Can't have one without the other, but if I had to chose one, I'd rather have an average defensive big than an average defensive wing (not saying Monroe is average, but you get what I mean).

(D?) Russ for 8 is an absolute STEAL, by the way. Malachi for 8 was a huge overpay

[br7knicks]

If anyone wants one of my reserve sg/sfs, hamilton, babbitt, and brown are available. If you want good defense, go brown. If you want scoring, go hamilton (11 ppg in limited minutes), or if you want shooting go babbitt (shot 48% from 3 PT after the ASB, making a few per game. Avgd 15 PPG in April when finally given burn). Can pair with other players.

Looking for defensive backup big man

Sans my bench, what do you think of my perimeter defense, and rim protector?

It´s a very competitive bunch of teams we have out here this BAT might get tough to judge. Same account as always by the way? I think it´s best to switch so there´s no paper trail

Confused why Ariza is a 2 instead of a 3, but I understand for depth purposes. Without thinking too much / going in depth, I like the ability for the 2-4 to switch on defense. My love for RoLo knows no boundaries. Gonna miss him.



(Not going to review teams, by the way. I can't do that. I just like looking at smaller things and price points.)

[Smash3]

Willing to listen to offers on Hayward, Roberson and kanter ... I have 0 roster spots and.salary left though so probably hard to do

Yeah, definitely competitive. I think because it's really only one factor / thing we will be judging (win now, as far as I know), it might be easier than in the past where we were looking at cap, current, future, etc.

Nah, different account. Bish caught wind and ended up seizing it...was all for nothing.

Yeah he has so many qualities, could have been a real beast sooner rather than later if he was under the wings of Bron

I am good with Malachi, his career is already over being drafted by Kings but I like his wingspan and catch and shoot, especially next to Bron too, those qualities along with his youth is still valuable for me for just 8 bucks

fair enough. the poster is on its way.

ariza used to play the 2, i know he's meant more for the 3, sometimes 4. my goal is to move ariza to the 3 when evans comes off the bench.

I mean, whatever team has Monroe (in real life as well) is starting behind the 8 ball.

Never been a fan of BroLo, but putting Dray next to him is awesome.

I wasn't always the biggest fan of BroLo early in his career but he has made major strides in his defense which has turned me on him. He can score in the low post with the best of em (he eats smaller centers). And he defended the rim at a 47% clip last year which is very respectable.

His big knock is clearing defensive rebounds (he is a pretty good offensive rebounder with put backs). But he just doesn't have a nose for the ball on the defensive end...and that is where Green comes in. Snatching up everything.

How money is spent won't affect which teams I like, but you have done one of the better jobs actually making a team. Found guys for good prices and still have money left over to make moves.

Also season 4 of AD ended up being trash btw like you said, did like the last episodes though.

Yah, I'm done talking about how teams are put together.

[Mecca]

I like Parker.. had a ton of talks about acquiring him but I appreciated the Dirk presence on that team Mecca. I don't think you should've traded him! Gordon is probably going to be your 6th man but Dirk still stands the test of time.

Respect the insight my man. My issue was getting 13 boards a night from my 4-5. Jabari fit the squad a lot better. I wanna run and have a position flexible squad. Jabari second half of the season looked like a future star.
