Circling back to bish’s post. Some posters are active on this forum and/or other team forums but may not have seen bish’s roll call request for BaF Season 9.
Still got some time cuz bish set a deadline of before the end of the Finals. But may be worth it to chase now, help bish out, and get ahead on all who’s IN/OUT.
I’m tagging the GM’s who haven’t yet declared, for this reason.

With everything that’s going on with the Knicks it’s a little hard to focus on BAF but Spurs are 2 wins away from a 4peat
We have to do something about this enough is enough. Trade me your stars I’ll take care of it

If he 4peats shut the game down

Even worst the top teams outside of the raps have some serious decisions to make. Nomore cheap stars while the spurs remain in firm position

Going to be an interesting off season for everyone. There’s always a deal or two or five if 2010 is part of it that shakes up the league
