Build a Team 17.0 Discussion Thread #3 (NBA Champion will be announced Thursday 7PM)

[magnumt]

I always want to build teams emphasize a lot of ball and player movement using the court fully with transition beasting, but also one who can get the stops when needed, I think I am doing very good once more but respect people who disagree cuz they are too stuck on names and reputation rather than players

Saric was a nice pick. Sixers are ballin right now. Wish the Knicks had a process.

I swear man, our "fans" sometimes.

Saric, Ingles are those type of players
but I dont see Waiters, Jimmy or Dunn being those type of players...

You need the perfect blend, also need players who are up to NBA pace and athleticism, Jimmy and Dunn can definitely fit in, I was very impressed with Waiters decision making last playoffs I think he will too in the positive environment, also need heroballism sometimes, that can be the only way to beat LeBrons and all actually, grinding out with solid D and big time heroballism

Dunn can be. He has Knight too though...

If there's one pick I didn't like from the Pooch, it's Dunn. Guy just isn't ready yet. Consistency is a huge issue and the only thing he's managed to do is get some nice highlights.

I think your just too young. Don't have a problem with the roster at all.

No sh*t.

But that's not what he said.

P.S. Josh Jackson will do NICELY!

He is already good defensively imo love his athleticism, strength, quickness, length combination, who can switch between 1-2-3 and can lead a team in transition due to his crashing the boards, quickness and quick decision making, him being stuck behind Rubio does not change who he is for me

[OnTheWagon]

I love me some Unicorn, but he still needs another season or two to develop a go to move on mismatches. That and shift to center so that he doesn't have to chase guys out to the 3 point line. Might be different if the Knicks had a PG that can create some more easier shots for him and can play D.

I like Dunn's potential a lot. Just don't think he's gonna be ready at least until next season. Consistency is big.

Yes.

KAT, KP, and Emblid are on it.

The first two don't have restrictions of any kind either. People forget that it was just a couple of weeks ago he helped lead up to victory over Greek Freak. Matching him in production AND getting the win after coming back too early from an injury.

We as fans (speaking generally Greenie, not @ you specifically), are so quick to go into "grass is greener" mode and want to trade or give up on our young players.

This nig*a was supposed to take 4-5 years to develop. INSTEAD, he went from 14 PPG, 7 RPG, 1.3 APG, and 1.5 BPG in Year One --> almost 20 PPG, 8 RPG, and 2 BPG (Top 10 in the LEAGUE! ).

I swear man...

I'm not Camp Melo or Camp Porzingis btw. I'm a Knicks fan.

Celtics- Paging perimeter players.
Nets- Yay! You built a team that has no business in this competition.
Knicks- Paging a second scorer.
Philly- Looks like the toddler trying to understand why the square wont go into the circle.
Raptors- See Nets.
Bulls- Id be hard pressed to name the first round pick.
Cavs- At least you got Durant.
Pistons- Could win it all, or kill each other.
Pacers- Come to Indiana, where defense is optional.
Bucks- Still don't understand that Dunn pick.
Hawks- One of the worst LeBron teams in BAT?
Hornets- A super team like the Knicks were this year.
Heat- Do you know AARP?
Magic- Not sure if Barnes is good, or the Mavs just suck that much.
Wizards- Once LeBron is traded, so are the hopes.
Wolves- Watch Goran star as IT... after eighth period.
Thunder- Without a doubt, skinniest team of all time.
Blazers- Keep Portland weird, don't play perimeter defense.
Jazz- Come for the Wives, just don't dare us to shoot a three.
Warriors- We look just like the Blazers from a few years ago, just Aldridge isn't the same.
Clippers- Where we wonder what would've happened if LeBron didn't come home.
Lakers- Where the Old One pretends he can carry the front court.
Suns- I promise, I didn't try to build Wizards west.
Kings- Jack of all trades, master of none.
Mavs- That moment you realize Manu might actually start...
Rockets- Dame really starting to let signals out that he will become a full time rapper.
Grizz- Start your path to a architectural career. Come see our measly skyline.
Pelicans- Where four guys yell at Roberson for not playing defense.
Spurs- I mean hey, maybe Horford will try at PF...

You forgot one:

Spoiler:

Nuggets- Where they gonna change their name to Denver ASSets

You know by "process" I meant the actual Hinkie process, not the name Embiid took for himself right? Should have made myself more clear.

219 - Al Jefferson

Averaging 57 ppg per 100 mpg. That's also the amount of mpg his car gets. So unless you all driving the new super priuses, you're going to lose.

I love my squad with the addition of Al Jefferson. 57 ppg is great to add to my bench. Surprised he wasn't pre selected before BAT started. I was going to pick him before we begun.

not sure if mine is an insult or compliment to my team. either way, it was entertaining

[Smash3]

Hit me up, still open to trade

[Smash3]

So... Since everyone is drafting injured players, it´s no problem if I draft a certain injured player right?
