Oh believe me, 148 gets at least 20 balls at one time and then unloads in 5 seconds. They are definately the top bot I've seen in person but I've only seen OKC and Dallas; though I will say that 1114 just looks devastating but I've never seen any of their matches. Be wary of 148! They may just drive around for most of the match but if they get you. . .go ahead and concede the win to them.
