Since when do point guards have to play defense? All you need is a good SG defender to put on your opposing team's penetrator (whether it's a PG or SG). It's a crime that IT and Lowry fell out of the top 20 IMO. They lead top offenses.

When you have AB as your SG you can make up for the deficiencies, but Dudley who is now a traditional back up 4...i think IT is gonna get exposed, but you do still have time to upgrade

Dudley is a hybrid 3/4 and can play some minutes at the 2, but I hear you.

Gimme Bradley.

Nah I like my starting back court.

Well you have Lebron so you dont have to worry about that this time.

I just want all the Eddy Curry's. I wish I could split Lebron and trade him to the other 29 teams so I can make the next 150 picks, finish this draft and go back to missing the playoffs

Deez, remi, MP, fury, Ill, Jason, jose7 have my favorite teams thus far. Br7/Ez team is nice as well. I did this off top, so I apologize if I forgot anyone.

Damn, we're still in the 7th round. I like the auction BATs better. How long have we been doing this current BAT? How long did it take to complete the auction drafts?

Yeah I'm going to piggyback this since we're all pleasuring ourselves to our own picks. I don't think I could have done a much better job building around one of my favorite players in the league right now in Wall. A legit 2nd option in Gordon, mixed with dudes who are some of the top defensive options at their positions (Carroll and Jordan) and guys who will do the dirty work and hustle plays like Galloway and Leuer...Not to mention everyone can shoot it except for Deandre... The spacing should be really good on offense for Wall to operate.

That's enough self praise for the month back to second guessing every move I make

3 weeks to a month. And since I joined in '08, so 9 years now.

Deeez did a really good job building around LeBron. In that situation you can really only fuq up but, he passed the test with flying colors. Good job man, that's a juggernaut to deal with...Luckily he's in the East...

From that list, Deez and Remi are the favorites IMO. Lebron/Bledsoe and WB/Barnes completely trumps anything the other guys have, and its not like this is an auction draft where the other teams' supporting casts would be much stronger to make up for it.

Your team is very substance over flash in its identity

No one can hear you with your boy being smothered.

I hate the Superstar > everyone else arguments, time and time again superstars have failed. We hear the same arguments every BAT: oh wow he has Lebron, no way we can beat Lebron :rofl:

I will say that Deez has built a beastly squad, I was hoping he would stumble but he´s been hitting all the right notes.
