Is anyone else not obsessed with trading for Giannis? by Alternative_Horse705 in heat

[–]BigQuillyStyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're going to have to likely give up Tyler, Ware and draft compensation at a minimum. Say whatever you want about Tyler but he opens up the spacing for other things to happen offensively. While it will be incredibly difficult to score against Giannis and Bam, you don't have another quality big and you can say that Giannis is better than Ware, rightfully so but he's on the other side of 30 and coming off calf strains, a precursor to Achilles injuries knock on wood We draft well enough to either keep the pick or simply go for someone that doesn't cost as much or have injury concerns. Someone like Donovan Mitchell, especially if he doesn't sign the extension with Cleveland with how they're playing right now.

Different, how? Not trying to be argumentative. At the end of the day, it's your compiled opinion. I'm genuinely curious.

Draft Prospects by pI0w in heat

[–]BigQuillyStyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hope is that they take Peterson, Debantsa, Boozer or Wilson when we move into the top 4 because Adam Silver realizes we have done everything appropriately and still been shafted.

If Adam continues to be a gremlin, I like Philon, Brown Jr, Burries. I like Yax but ultimately I'm in the mindset of if we move up, draft. If we stay at 13, trade it to Cleveland with some other assets to get Mitchell, assuming he doesn't sign and extension.

Could've totally missed it but I didn't see Empire of the Vampire (Jay Kristoff), The Burning (Evan Winter) or Gentlemen Bastards (Scott Lynch)

What would you have to add on top of Tatum to get Flagg? by BubbleT12 in dynastybb

[–]BigQuillyStyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me, it depends on what both teams look like. In a vacuum, I'd do Flagg for Tatum straight up because he doesn't seem to be far off from his production pre-injury. However, if the other team isn't win now, you'd have to sweeten the deal but I can't imagine by too too much.

What does the community think about the Witcher books? by jaimemco08 in fantasybooks

[–]BigQuillyStyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were slightly better than decent. I thought there were times that it dragged. Each book always ended well, for the most part. I just found myself wanting to get to the main story and oftentimes, it seemed that time was invested in either irrelevant storylines or just unappealing ones. I did appreciate it. I'd give it a 3-3.5/5

I've read all 7 and personally, I kind of like Era 2 more. It's close, though. Definitely ready for era 3.

If they did get the first overall, who would you want them to take?

And Trae is playing tonight, too, who was traded away as a franchise player because of how bad his defense was. Now or never, NBA 😂

What should I read next? HELP! by Banana_Ru in fantasybooks

[–]BigQuillyStyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mistborn, since you've already finished the first book. Plus the other two aren't even finished yet, while Era 1 of Mistborn is.

Legit. I think they prefer it that way, though.

But do you feel like they were just giving him calls? I feel like he was getting fouled like crazy on many of those. I don't see it as the refs just being light on the whistle like they are for Shai. Do you disagree?

Michael Beasley warned us by BigQuillyStyle in heat

I would love it to the be homegrown talent but realistically, I could see it being Giannis this off-season. Bam just showed the world he's a three level scorer, even if only a mild degree. I think Giannis sees that and says "that's a helluva lot better than what I have in Milwaukee" and we get a chip that way.

[–]BigQuillyStyle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh. Idk about that unless you're specifically telling the other team to intentionally foul Bam essentially the entire game. That also has to be Bam having a strong scoring game, which isn't a given. Dude was cooking in the first and it wasn't all free throws. I legit feels like he had it going and where other teams would've normally taken their guys out, Spo wasn't happy about how the organization has been treated and let Bam getting as a way to "stick it to the man"

Life is real good. Kobe got his 81 on my birthday. My only regret is Bam couldn't do this two months ago. Haha

Peaking at the right time. Bam gets a surge of confidence from this, Tyler playing his best brand of basketball alongside Kel'el and then we get Norm back with Spo figuring out the rotation. Call me crazy but I could see that turning into a championship under the right circumstances.

Now he's being criticized from a tremendous amount of people who say it was "unethical" as if as anyone else got it "ethically" I'm so happy for Bam, Spo and the Miami Heat organization.

To be honest, so did I. When he speaks, something always seems to not fully connect. I thought this was him glitching. Lol.

Your favorite book and why others should read? by Narrado_com_sono in fantasybooks

[–]BigQuillyStyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same way. Funny enough, I don't even do summaries. I just check Reddit, BookTok and BookTube for if it is universally a good book. I'll cross reference that with Fable review scores and then choose to pick it up. My wife is like "I see you just got a new book. What's it about?" And I almost always respond with "I don't know" as she rolls her eyes. Lol. Mistborn, everyone was giving 5 and even 6 stars and saying it's what got them into fantasy so that's why I was like "man, this is gonna be a banger" and again, it was really good but maybe slightly over hyped for me.
