Still looking to trade the 13th pick, not looking to completely trade out of the 1st round. Still at least 3 superstars remaining

Well according to the Bible in the story of Joseph, the baker dies and the butler lives, so you made the right choice lol

Honestly, I wish the name dropping would stop. Now there's less of a chance that Baker falls to me at 27.

I think one improvement to bat would be having some sort of contact where folks could be immediately alerted when on the clock. It's 2017 there's gotta be an app or something without people having to give out their cell phone #'s

Definitely looking to be more involved in this BAT whereas last one I was just kind of making my picks at random. Kind of like the structure/planning of a normal draft more than auction to be honest.

Went with Towns after considering 2-3 other guys seriously for that spot. Won't name drop but I think he gives slightly higher upside than the others. Still a few foundational players remaining though.

Should a certain player not get picked at 12, Smash and I have agreed to a deal which would see me trading the 13th pick.

Towns was a strong pick. Great player to build your team around. If Davis were taken, I was tempted to take him over Kawhi.

I am always saying put up a Whatsapp group, if someone is away they can even alert their picks from there and someone will post on forum, of course my real motive is to send dick pix to Greenie though
