I get that, but I think it should be discretionary to bish. Especially if he didn't sign up for this season. (Or did he?)

But if he didn't, don't think it's fair to hold the game up for 29 other players that had signed up and still have to wait.

thats fair...usually bish is good about that. Probably gets a little more leeway because he is a day 1 guy.

I don't know if he signed up for the season though.

I came in on Bat 6 in 201/2012...when did Bat 1 start mph?

honestly I can't even remember. I joined in 2010 and pretty sure it was a big reason I wanted to join the forum. But I don't think the reaglm search functions go back that far lol.

I typed in Build-A-Team in the search function and over 7000 pages on this forum show up but I can't go past like 1500 pages it doesn't recognize the pages :lol:

Adams is a man of peace until provoked but we are flattered that our potpourri of new bigs is causing concern.

Adams is my guy (pitt)

when he was clean shavin...outside of James Johnson I can't think of anymore feared guys than Adams and Stewart.

Stewart because he's a psycho...Adams is actually really nice but he has grown man strength.

OKC is certainly building up quite the draft capital....

He currently owns 20% of the 2026 1sts

I feel like he should keep going full tank and see how many 2026 1sts he can get to. Completely tear it down this year and start building it back up slowly but surely starting in 2026.

Idk… draft capital around her feels weak compared to the real NBA. You have to draft a star or SEVERELY SEVERELY overpay for a star under 33. The 15 person roster crunch is a punishment to guys collecting draft picks. Kinda bull honestly. Especially when we are FORCED to keep our 2nd rounders, UNLIKE the real NBA

Jazz are still very open to deals, I wanted to gain some salary flexibility and compete for the playoffs and I feel like I've been able to do that. Ideally looking to move one of KCP, Walker or Allen for either an backup center or point.

Conversely, the free agent market has always had spectacular bargains.

like with anything...all 1sts aren't treated the same (he's got some potentially valuable ones). Also my 3 straight chips wouldn't have started without (as Cap would say) the potpourri of 1sts I had in the 4th season. I was able to really make the most of that draft capital moving around that draft and picking up players.

also the draft class matters. What top tier talent is available.
