I wouldn't mind an upcoming pick.

I'll be in the chat.

Might be interested in moving my early 3rd rounder. Email me (morrigan9999@yahoo.com) or my assistant GM Fury (thirdrail718@yahoo.com) what you have in mind. My team is the Miami Heat.

I sent you an e-mail MooCow.

Wow...thus far only 4 picks made today? We gotta do better than this

C'mon guys, we're better than this. 4 picks in 1 day, and we're only in the 2nd round? Most of you guys have been slacking.... get it together.

Aside from most of the people in the 20-30 pick range, this has gone very slow. Lets pick up the pace.

I love how Moocow has been pumped and ready for his pick all day -- and now he's not online. :lol:

If he gets skipped, that'd suck big time.

Aldridge dropped way too far IMO

I'm going to assume it's the #97 pick instead and update accordingly. Would suggest the Wizard GM confirm that there's no difference between 94 and 97 or if they want to nullify the trade.

Yes that is correct, 97 not 94. My mistake.

Hell naw I don't want my pick traded by another team. Its bad enough I gotta wait until the 94th pick to pick anyway.... :lol:

That being said, always looking to deal...

Someone else is doing Gasol/Garnett?! See, I knew it was a good idea. Except I took them at 17 and 23 in the last BAT, where they're like 14 and 47 now.

Anyway, I like the idea of everyone needing to check the first post to know who's up. And I like the idea of whoever just picked listing the next few picks. Team effort !

It remains to be seen if we can actually get through 20 picks a day.

Just curious, why did you draft Kaman and Bogut?

I like the way this BAT is going. It's kind of unpredictable. There are guys that went too high, but I'm sure the GM'S had a reason behind choosing them, and there are guys who have dropped. For instance, Joe Johnsons expensive contract really hurt him in my opinion which is why I believe he went so low.

If it keeps going at this rate there will be some true gems in the next few rounds

Yeah.. from a talent stand point, and even age being considered, Joe Johnson should have a mid first rounder. That contract just sucks. I was really surprised to see him fall so far.

Bogut is arguably the 2nd best center in the league and an underrated passer. Kaman is one of few big men in the league with a legitimate post game. Without giving away too much, my team is going to run a slow, methodical offense so I wanted two bigs that can execute. Kaman commands a double team against most bigs in the league and Bogut is really starting to refine his offense as well. I can go with Bogut at the high post with Kaman down low. On defense, I think I'm solid with shotblocking and rebounding even though footspeed might be an issue against stretch bigs that can shoot.

Alternate explanation: I'm drafting a team full of centers. I'm looking at you Joel Pryzbilla.

haha.. I think it could definitely work depending on who is put around them. Both are very talented bigs, and always better to go big than small.
