I have the best player on my team.

And seriously, it`s a shame that Celtic fans underrate a team coached by Red Auerbach. My team is at least top 5, and I´m being modest here.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Team Techmology - Starting Lineup

PG/Coach/General Manager - Alexander the Great.  The greatest field general of all time becomes the greatest floor general.  Has a tremendous head for Xs and Os.  Main weakness: Has been dead for 2000+ years, so conditioning may be a factor.

SG/Owner - Batman.  Phenomenal lateral quickness and an unbeatable wingspan.  Just try and get an entry pass to the post with this guy guarding you.  Second to none in determination and maximizing his potential.  Main weaknesses: may struggle with weekend afternoon games due to erratic evening schedule, and is a bit too enamored with gadget plays.

SF - Brainiac.  Tremendously fast, strong, and of course, intelligent, Brainiac is at his core formless, which really helps his shotblocking.  Of course, he won't really need that because of our center.  Brainiac is literally a walking supercomputer, and so is great at analyzing the strategies and weaknesses of opponents in realtime.  Main weaknesses: Difficulty delegating authority, irrational hatred for Paul Allen.

PF - Kevin Garnett.  Emotional leader of the team, he'll help implement Alexander's defensive schemes on the fly and keep his teammates inspired and in fresh supply of new and exotic strings of curse words.  Main weakness: accidentally headbutting Voltron.

C - Voltron (aka BeastKing GoLion).  Perhaps the most dominant center in the Ultimate League, Voltron stands over three hundred feet tall and can easily straddle the paint area, making three-second violations moot, and scoring almost impossible.  Also impossible to back down in the post without causing him to crush the basket, leading to an immediate stoppage of play.  On offense, he is not only ambidextrous but ambipedal, and can even score with his head.  Main weakness: a sharp blow may cause Voltron to break into his lion components, leading to an instant Too Many Men technical.

On the bench:

6th man: Bruce Lee.  Responsibilities include defensive pestering and punching guys too fast for refs or instant replay to catch. Main weakness: Cerebral edema. (too soon?)

Asst Coach/Asst GM: Grand Admiral Thrawn.  Thrawn is the Tommy Thibs of this crew: primary responsibilities are off the court strategy development, including listening to hours of opponents' crappy rap CDs to gain keen insight into their psyches.  In a pinch can come off the bench to guard the 2 or some smaller 3s.

Equipment Manager: Nikola Tesla.  Mostly responsible for technological innovation, but can stick the 3 when needed.  A little like Steve Kerr if he were a mad scientist from Eastern Europe.

Music: Trent Reznor.  Duties include updating classic arena songs for the 21st century, writing team theme songs, and sweating all over opponents' bench areas to cause them to slip and injure themselves (if you've ever seen him in concert this'll make perfect sense).

Manager/Mascot: Charlie Kelly/Green Man.  Will be responsible for maintaining team morale and being someone for KG to rip on without starting a massive superpowered fight.  Green Man will also serve as the best team mascot in the Ultimate League; however, neither Charlie nor Green Man will not be allowed anywhere near the court or the storeroom where we keep the glue.

Thus far has my vote.  Nicely done!

I think I match up pretty well against this team

I suppose I'm superficial, but he sold the package nicely.

Thanos would simply disintegrate every player on the opposing team, allowing Larry wide open looks at the basket.  (The Dude destroys universes and puts them back together, just for fun.)  I like our chances.

Roy, you like your team's chances?!? that comes as an amazing shock  ;D ;D ;D (j/k)

No need to worry about Jesus.  As you remember, he doesn't like to show off his miracles for trivial reasons.  I don't think he'd be a big fan of basketball, and would probably try to minister to the people in the crowd.

Zeus, on the other hand, is a vindictive, competitive and vengeful god, who would have no problem dropping 100 on you.

First Commandment.
Most teams are breaking it by calling a player on their team a 'god'.
Jesus won't just sit back and let that happen.

Plus, Hades was always bad at winning.  How do you think he landed in the underworld?

True - no knock on the Jesus, but he'd be too busy trying to "enlighten people" and "bring them closer to eternal salvation" to do much showing off on the court.  Meanwhile Zeus would be running around chucking lightning bolts up everyone's ass and knocking up the popcorn girl at halftime.

But I think we can all agree mgent's squad would be a dominant force in the WNBA  :P

No Hades is older

and just have a bad draw that day, just like Cs when duncan.


from someplace:

He is a greedy god who is greatly concerned with increasing his subjects. Those whose calling increase the number of dead are seen favorably. The Erinyes are welcomed guests. He is exceedingly disinclined to allow any of his subjects leave.

He is also the god of wealth, due to the precious metals mined from the earth.


So hes the owner of the money too.

Also, Jesus would need to go the full 48 minutes.  If he came out of the game his teammates would always be wondering, "What would Jesus do?"  Way too confusing.  Not sold on Jesus the hoops player.
