Who's doing the judging for this Build A Team?

Aren't the participants going to do the judging by ranking each team in a poll?

[Im Coming Home]

I PM'd Moocow and Mags my upcoming selections because I have a party to get to in a few minutes and I don't want to hold up the drafting. So, check your PMs Moocow and Mags, thanks in advance.

Got it...but why on earth would you want Eddy Curry and Stephon Marbury? Oh well...if you insist.

I don't know man, Curry and Marbury are the greastest big man, guard combo in history behind Howard Eisley and Mike Sweetney. I'm surprised they'd fall this far.

The Toronto Raptors have been offered to Lebron2NYK2010.

Mags, isn't his name Damion James?

Is it? I didn't C&P it into my SIG and typed it in manually. Thanks for the heads up.

I feel like although everyone claims my team isn't a championship contender that it's one of those "scary" teams that no one would want to play in a 7-game playoff series.

I'd handpick them to be my first round opponent.

Rose > Rubio ...(Neither can shoot, one is shoot-1st, the other pass-1st. Rose has the experience)
Pietrus < Martin ...(I'm being nice here when I say "it's not even close")
Johnson < Granger ...(LOL)
Randolph > Speights ...(you obviously win here but you got no depth and I got Diaw/Beasley off bench)
Oden < Yao ...(they're both injury concerns but if we pretend they're healthy Yao wins easily)

Adelman < SVG ...(my guy has been to a Finals with less talent on the roster than Adelman has had)

If you'd handpick me in the 1st round you must be looking forward to summer vacation!

Defense wins ballgames and there is only 1 basketball in a basketball game. Remember that. Don't forget Adelman got cheated out of a finals appearance as the series was already said to have been fixed, and Orlando got to the finals in a watered down East.

Once again, I'd handpick your team to play against. And if both of the big men are healthy, lol at the thought of Yao guarding Oden. And will Yao being better than Oden really matter, when there are 3 other chuckers in your starting 5? Haha. On the bright side, Kevin Martin is a walking injury. He probably wouldn't be healthy by the time the playoffs start.

Oh ok

I wasn't sure if we went on ahead with that idea.

Honest opinions on my team please:
Toronto Raptors
Mo Williams/will Bynum/ Johnson
Joe Johnson/ leandro barbosa/Bynum
Martell Webster/ linas klieza
Al Jefferson/ Troy murphy
JJ hickson/ Brandon bass

[I am Ra]

I sent you one last offer(for now) LeBron2NY2010.


Toronto Raptors
Mo Williams/Will Bynum
Joe Johnson/ Leandro Barbosa
Martell Webster/ Linas Kleiza
Al Jefferson/ Troy Murphy
JJ Hickson/ Brandon Bass

Win Now: 7/10

Your best big man is injury prone. No true center/ But you do have Joe Johnson and some nice pieces. This is a playoff team. How much further can it go? IMO not that far.

Future: 7/10

Pretty Good future with the big men being relatively young, and having some good pieces.

Cap Management: 8/10

Took some big contracts. Since there is no clear direction of team, I cannot give this team a great grade in taking big vet contracts.

22/30 = 73%

Thank you for your honesty and thoroughness, I am currently looking around on the bigs, and then I may address my wings and I feel we are very much still a work in progress.

[ctorres]

The Houston Rockets and Toronto Raptors have agreed on a trade!

The Houston Rockets receive JJ Hickson.



The Toronto Raptors receive Ekpe Udoh.

Does the name Joe Johnson ring a bell?
