I love my squad now with first round selection snub, booker.


I mean hey, he's a nick pick at this juncture. I take it that we've reached the juncture in which everyone is enamored with their team and believe they have a top five team?


A bunch of others have been doing it, so I thought I'd give it a try. Gonna do it with the rest of my picks.

I am the top 5 teams.

Everybody thinks they have a top 5 team in BAT until they miss the playoffs. It's always laughable

Your last BAT team was one of my favorites. Giannis and McCollum would've been a nasty pairing for the next ten years.

That said, I think the team you have now is better. So yeah, you'll probably lose again, as will I.

202 - Trevor Booker. The only hall of famer who is still playing in the nba. Is known as the best rebounder ever, but only in the western hemisphere.

How good is he at rebounding? He's never been single for more than 18 minutes.

I love my squad. I have 7 future hall of famers now.


Trevor Booker was on my list as well.

Of course you have to have a Suns participant update your 1st post title and like 10 picks. :nonono:

One more round until we get moving Greenie and Gentlemen :)

- During rounds 9-12 you will have 2 hours to make your Pick. The countdown starts from the timestamp of the last person who picked before your pick.

I know I could check the rules, but for a quick answer, when does the clock shut down for the night?

Booker was on Dr Phil yesterday to discuss how other GMs don't think the Hornets are the best team in BAT.
