Build an NBA Team (BaNT) - discussion

I think you underestimate the level of Power Forwards left. His stats last year, were right up there with Al Jefferson and Amare, and though those two can play Center, they are hardly worldly defenders.

Well, since his stats were there.


Why didn't you pick AJ then? His stats were there, maybe better (not sure without looking)

ZBo to go in the 2nd round?

[Teddy KGB]

lol what's sick is the Nash-Amare pairing and how I could end up picking Jason Kidd and Josh Howard with my next 2 picks

Yeah, i'm incredibly frightened of a team that didn't make the playoffs last year and another one who didn't get out of the 2nd round.

In a 16 team league.


All kidding aside, if you can get some D, I like a Nash Amare pairing.

I'm sure I can find some defense somewhere, but at least I've essentially locked up the best offense in the league.

Not if we force you to have Porter as your head coach.

[SamBone]

I may be the only person, but so far a agree with all the selections. Shaq is the best center in this game for at the moment. Even on a team that did not fit his style of play he was 3rd team all nba only behind Dwight (not playing) and Yao (injured).

[Teddy KGB]

I think it's quite alarming about the NBA that teams such as Milwaukee have no shot of getting any players picked for a while yet.

[CellarDoor]

Uhh, Gadz is third on my list.

Right behind Mohommad and Diop.

[Teddy KGB]

I'm thinking I might be overly optimistic here but do you think I could nab Eddy Curry with my next pic? Curry-Nowitzki, the best defensive tandem in the history of the NBA

^ Curry's a bit preoccupied right now at a McDonald's drive thru

He finally took the job for the discount, eh?

[Teddy KGB]

Very nice pick by boner imo I was hoping to steal Rondo.

[VintaGe36]

Iguodola pick puzzles me a bit, with Joe Johnson already on the team, seems like your bolstering one aspect of your team, before even establishing the other parts.

[CellarDoor]

Again, I really, really hate picking in the middle of these games. Ugh.

[Teddy KGB]

lol I love middle picks. It's the late picks or early picks I don't like

[VintaGe36]

Late picks are the bomb!

[SamBone]

was surprised about Iggy also. I was torn because I was set in my mind to get Shaq, Harris or as last resort (KevMart and having 2 stud wings) but the chemistry and defense that Rondo brings was too good to pass. Plus as a Philly person, I Hate Boston! But The Boned Samuels are set up nicely with Rondo and PP

[CellarDoor]

At this point I just hope to m make it out of the first round. Everyone else's drafting behavior is going to have a huge impact on how good my team could be. Every single guy I wanted to select was a reach at my draft slot, so I left a lot of guys I would love to have on the board in hopes of getting them later.

[CellarDoor]

I had a write-up for Okafor. Two for Rose, and one for about four other guys. Not a bad selection at all Bness
