I would love to see someone like Zach Lowe or Amin Alhassan play a BAT. I'm going to badger Lowe on twitter to check it out.

Lowe is my favorite mind in basketball. I would like to see him apart of our FO

I literally have two guys left in my "worth trading up for" bracket...so to the teams ahead of MP, make me an offer because I'm pretty sure they'll be gone by 57.

And the list goes on....

Mecca be making it to BAT fights like LeBron be making it to NBA finals. It's pretty much a given. :lol:


And lose them twice as often as win like Lebron too.

This Mecca Spree fight hilarious, in one corner we got the wikipedia editor who took DeMarr 10 picks too early and in the other we got the dude who did the same with Jabari who posts 8 times a minute. And they're arguing over Steven Adams.

Al Horford gets traded immediately after that horrific 2 for 14 outing tonight. I know it's one game, but he looked pretty bad. There's still two guys out there I'd take over him anyway, so imo it's a good trade for Illmatic assuming he was also able to acquire some depth as well.

Zach Lowe just voted Jabari Parker into the all-star game. You're saying he should've gone in the Batum/Otto range? Both were good picks at 45-46, but Jabari is easily a tier above them. You're baiting me I won't fall for it lol

I dunno how many times you gunna keep posting that thread lol. But DeMar is the better player, and Lowry is the more important position. This has been talked about everywhere.

I really like the dynamic of an Al and John Wall pairing. By far the best big man Wall will have ever played with.. What do y'all think?

nah this time it's on the PC board. DeMarr is not better than Kyle. And was even worse in the playoffs last year. DeMar is the new Melo. Dude who can put the ball in the round thing but that's it. And not efficiently enough to be a star level player.

He needs a better Assist man. Wall is the perfect player for him. Your Offense will be good and free flowing with both players being able to pass well.
