Blessing yall with a picture of the best player in BBS you dont know about yet.
Hello BBS, today we have another roundtable brought to you by yours truly, jr. Our guests are very special guests, GMs that have actually traded with me before! Had a hard time finding 4 GMs that met that criteria but here we are! Lets get right into it and waste no time.
Its early on in the season, see any surprises in the league? Could be a player underperforming, overperforming, or teams doing the same?
Braz - It's funny because I was trying to get Galo to rebuild. I did not think they would miss the playoffs again but damn they are good! Miami is doing better then expected out the gate and just got KD for free so just makes the East harder again.
Sargo - Lots of middle of the pack teams. Not many teams separating from the pack. It’s kind of wild. So many teams in it. But we have to talk about Patty Mills right? What the fuck. He’s a 40ppg guy now.. ok.
Eddy - Patty Mills scoring 40 ppg is insane. Manny Harris is doing big things for the Raptors. 21/5/4 2 steals 1 block. Squirtin Burton looks good. Jazz are struggling but will bounce back. The only team is maybe the Sonics giving up on their season so early.
Royal – Andrew Harrison definitely. Surprise mother fuckers. Dudes a stud, tried telling everyone but it's whatever. One day I'll be taken seriously.
Pig - Pistons being this good with roughly the same core of guys is a little surprising, I guess Galo finally found the special sauce. Toronto looks really good with Al Jefferson. I would love to know what the VORP is with Al Jefferson on these BBS teams because he really seems to be a guy that instantly gives you 5-10 wins over a replacement player. Might be a strong argument that he is the most valuable player in BBS History. Looks like Zach Randolph has died unfortunately which is a sad day for the league. Andrew Harrison looks really good although I was pretty skeptical based off the data on that first sim.
Activity has been high lately do we blame the shit trades or is it just BBS being BBS again?
Braz - BBS has been better as most of us are snowed in and the season turns. These trades have really sucked though.
Sargo – BBS has waves. Now we are riding the wave of activity. It’ll die down for a bit again soon then pick up. Its just the way of bbs.
Eddy – Combination of both, but seems to be the norm for us in this league. Love it
Royal – "HIGH" off crystal meth. Market is collapsed, everything is off. Everyone is horny for trades. At the end though its just BBS being BBS baby.
Pig - Pretty sure Ahsan being the main character in a 21st century real life version of The Call of the Wild is a big reason for the spike in activity.
Speaking of shitty trades, we have seen our fair share starting in the offseason. In your opinion rank the top 3 worst trades in BBS in the last season or so and why.
Braz - Hawks trading KD- He had a steal getting the guy and then moved him for less. Percy is a cool guy so hate to see this happen. I get it cap is a thing but you coulda got alot more or moved someone else.
Bucks giving away lebron. This was just beat because it was clear there was other good offers. Just hate to see it.
Marty trading dray to tank then tanks for 7 to trade that for PG to give up on PG so quickly for nothing. WTF awful GMing
Sargo – KD to Heat because I don’t get trading KD for two shit picks and giving the heat a stip
AD to Wiz because I should have kept AD
idk choose any other trade
Eddy – KD to the Heat is the worst one for obvious reasons, how do you not even get One of the Heat’s 4 most valuable pieces lol.
Kyrie and Allen for Mitchell sucked. Especially that he added to Mitchell to get Cousins.
Idk those are the 2 worst ones I think of. Didn’t think the Bron trade was terrible.
Royal – 1. KD for who again? Yea man this was the worse deal by far.
2. Kyrie #5 for Spida. Ultimately netted me Lebron but this was a huge overpay at the time when you look at Kyries numbers.
3. All of Martys chaos. I felt he had a decent team in a week west and panicked after 15 days. Hope he figures it out.
Pig - This recent one with ATL with MIA was really bad but we beat that to death so I don't really want to go into it with too much depth.
Any thing Game day trades on Robin Hood. (RIP Vlad)
Didn't like the Bucks pull for Lebron, thought that was pretty bad as well. That Henson contract is not conducive in creating a championship team.
Havent seen a lot of these questions lately so here we go, who are the 3 worst GMs currently employed by a BBS team? Why?
Braz - 1. Outlaws- Mainly due to less activty he does not really make trades that benefit him quickly, has had several debacles like WE DO NOT ACCEPT lol and always seems to miss playoffs with out his picks. He did pass his CY and i think if he committed more time hed be better but is what it is.
2. Marty- this one pains me because when he joined he gave me DC advice and it worked for Kyrie. I was happy he got a team and we made a big trade so I like the guy. However, Marty is way too reactionary with his moves. Impulsive as it gets with out thinking of his positioning or team. If he settles down he knows FBB well and can prob be real good so just a matter of how he wants to enjoy his time here.
3. Lumz- Just feel he was more active as a Co GM. Hasnt made any big moves except getting Demar, made a miracle run and now is sitting bottom of the west. He has not done bad with the team but it has been awful to try to have a trade discussion. So for me it's more so a disappointment of my expectation of what I thought he would be activity wise and being timid on trades.
Sargo – It seems like I pile on CMart a lot but here we go.
CMart is about to get CYd
Royal is a good GM but just gets bored and makes dumb trades but I’ll include him to get him riled up
last will be Eli just to piss him off
Eddy – Augustus. Dude hasn’t done shit since he joined.
RC. Got a great deal for KD and didn’t ever run an outside offense to utilize him right. Mediocre team.
I say Break is 3rd, but it’s not his fault. He just doesn’t know the game as well as us. and he seems to be improving lately so kudos to
Him.
Habes is the fourth because he won’t give me Bam.
Royal – 1. Lumley, team is ran by committee. I know it!!!
2. Break. Just going off track record here. Hes looking solid right now though.
3. Steve. Dude wont let me hit it from the back and its frustrating.
Pig - Heatflash: HF always wants to talk trade (which I love), but never has anything I want or need (which I hate) so he's on my shit list until he finds something I need and sends to me expeditiously.
Galo: Galo is terrible because he can't find an appropriate time slot to get me on his Pod. I am the prime time ticket, need to go out of your away to appease talent. Who is delivering my handwritten note? The Pony Express?
Habes: I took a lot of my time out of my day to develop a 65 million dollar deal to send to Habes who portrays himself in public as some sim league cowboy with his moves. Didn't even have the nerve to counter. I think he's all talk and a charlatan when it comes to his BBS risk profile. Acts like he swings a big dick on the forums but the chastity belt is bulging out his pants in PM's. Guy should of just took the deal on principal. The nerve.
No CY teams this season, how do you approach CY after a few rebuilding seasons?
Braz - I try not to even think about CY. CY is something I should always hit. Striving just to reset seems so off. I want to try to win playoffs and a ring! Easier said then done since I have been a playoff team every year since my rebuild ended. So to that i will flip the question. I only want to rebuild to get ahead of the wheels falling off. As i rebuild i collect as many good assets and players as possible. If I feel those young guys are ready I will push in to win sooner if not I can ride it out till that 4th year, but damn by that 4th year you better be at least a 500 team no moves or else you didnt hit at all last few years.
Sargo – Gotta ATTACK. Or be proactive as Joe would say... need to go out and get your guys and can’t hold onto youth
Eddy – Weird question lol, depends who you got in FA and the draft but obviously go for win now players duh!
Royal – Well you need to hope that all your picks and rebuild years don't become absolute shit. Than you maybe trade a piece or two for some balanced win now players and if you can YOLO it and build a legit contender I think you flip team and put together best possible product. Trust me I've beat CY with less than 42 wins twice. I'm an expert.
Pig - Put a team together that is good enough to win 42 games or better.
So value is a hot topic of discussion in BBS and it always fluctuates like our stock market, who is the most valuable player in the league right now. Not best, or most productive but who do you think should get the best haul in a trade?
Braz - I still think its the greek freak. When Luka comes in he will be great value. I like to think players who are very unique are the most valued since the drop off at replacement would be furthest.
Sargo – Hmmm before the season I would have said AD, but I saw the disgusting offers that came in and those TOs are high. He’s not that GOOD as everyone says. I’ll say Giannis. He should net an absolute haul if ever dealt by eddy
Eddy – Giannis. Not even close.
Royal – Honestly 100% wholeheartedly believe Andrew Harrison holds the most value based off production, camps left and contract. The league wont agree with this because his name is Andrew Harrison though. Only thing holding my man back is his namesake.
Pig - Gian Clavell. The man has the shackles on right now. +4 TC as a rookie FA which is unheard of. Crazy volume for a C- inside guy. I think Spence accidentally had 100 POT on him and doesn't want the world to see this monster play hoops. We need to AC/RC this guy and let him breathe. Guy is a gem in a hand basket......woven with silk. Who cares if he has no birds. I want to see this guy fly. Send me Doncic for him.
This is the second time outlawz has missed a key component in a trade, I think its an honest mistake, what do yall feel about his “mistake”?
Braz - Well if it's truly an honest mistake which we should give him the benefit of the doubt and move on. if it was not thats pretty lame. It is dangerous waters to negociate wasted though. Maybe he didnt remember Jokic because he was faded lol. He should try to ammend the deal.
Sargo – Idk and idc. I thought it was a good trade for him and even if it wasn’t a “mistake” he should have done it. Jokic is meh and expires and Brown could be nice with camps.
Eddy – Lmaoooo my boy was faded and he apologized. He’ll fuck you up too
Royal – I think like he stated he's just too busy and doesn't have the full time for us, just having fun. Kinda just breezing through.
Pig - Don't particularly care one way or another. Curious on WTF was going on that Outlawz is hammered at 3PM on a Wednesday though? Was it snowing in San Diego?
Speaking of outlawz, who would you bet on in a fight royal or outlawz? Big money at stake here.
Braz - Id be in Royal's corner but idk much about outlawz but his user name seems kinda hard core. whatever lol no fighting plz
Sargo – Not sure of outlawz background or stature so I have to go with my man royal. He’s built like a Buick. Big boy.
Eddy – I got my money on Lawz. Even ahsan would fuck royal up!
Royal – Bruh..so to be completely honest I'd be a favorite. Id bet the house on Lawz and take one for the team for the bag baby. I'ma lover not a fighter though man. Don't appreciate yall promoting violence in my safe haven.
Pig - No clue what Outlawz looks like.
Last question, well I guess not a question ask me a question!!!
Braz – Favorite strain of weed?
Jr – Sour Diesel was my favorite before all the hybrids and combining strains and shit. If I had to chose something that would be my favorite now it was White Runtz
Sargo – Why are you a Knicks fan?
Jr – Great question tbh. Not being from NY or ever living there it might seem odd to some. When I was like 5-6 I remember watching NBA on NBC Saturday morning, not the cartoons. It was the Bulls verse the Knicks in NY. Even as a kid I could feel the energy there. I wanted to play at MSG and fell in love with how hard they played even going against MJ, the best player ever. IDK but yeah that’s pretty much it.
Eddy – Stfu
Jr – Well that was rude. Asks me to send him questions for 3 days and this is how he reacts. SMH
Royal – Why do you bitch a lot on boards and act like a pussy ass victim all the time i.e. "wah wah noone sends me good deals" "wah wah luka is only avg 28 9 9 and is overrated cause hes white" or "wah wah i blew another 2-1 lead" ooo anothee good one "idc man im just having fun, talking shit to start a convo, yall always butthurt, wah wah"??
Jr – That’s my persona on the boards. I have to bitch somewhere about something.
Pig - What is seen in the middle of March and April that can’t be seen at the beginning or end of either month?
Jr – I wanted to google this so bad. Im going with Easter. IDK why but I swear its in both months.
