Build a Franchise (Season 7) Discussion thread continued (Announcement on page 64)

Good game. I knew this series was just beginning once we traveled to Miami.

[2010]

Meanwhile, over in Cleveland…

[2010]

Good game Fat. It’s now a 3-game series.

[Capn'O]

East getting spicy

[Manhattan Project]

Well it sucks to say, but we're getting outclassed in our series.

[2010]

Hopefully the downside of Raptors youth (inexperience) doesn’t lead to blowing a 2-0 lead. But gotta tip your hat to Miami, they did their job and protected their homecourt. Now we head back up top and gotta protect ours again!

[mpharris36]

off to a good start, loving the defense especially.

OKC was a top 10 offense in the regular season and avg 121 pts in there two play-in games. Holding them to 94 ppg on avg in the first 3 games.

Joker avging a triple double through the first 3 games and Kessler has been huge with a 3 straight double doubles off the bench.

Cap's Clippers looking really good as well.

GG mpharris! There's obviously a lot I need to do to build my team, but still, I had a fun time with the play-in. Proud of the OKC Injury squad (Clarke, Lonzo and Isaac). Lots of work to do. Open to trade ideas, all.

good series man. Nice job getting those two road wins in the play-in just too much of a talent gap for ya to overcome in our series. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the future.

You were done dirty by the Sim in this one. Just in terms of talent this should have been a closer series. Imo your squad is a few tweaks away from being a bigger problem.

have we played each other in the playoffs cap? I don't think so.

We have not. I'm hopeful for a good series. Other than the Mavs I've been smoked by the OG western powerhouses.

seems like we are going to have a long layoff to prepare

God willing. The Dorture Chamber got a little dinged up in the Jazz series.

Hey.

I mean getting swept sucks, but there's no way to enforce SGA Rules. Brown/SGA was a bad match up for me, but ultimately there wasn't much to be done. I'll make some tweaks for sure, kudos on the sweep.

Yeah you don't have a lot of options against big perimeter players who can also drive. My biggest worry was Randle getting in a groove but that didn't happen and then he got hurt. BAF imitating life.

That dastardly mpharris has Caruso and Hart, which is super annoying.

Still missing confirmations for 2024-25 and/or GM of the Year votes from the following GM's. Please PM me ASAP so I can have all 30 votes and confirmations before the end of the weekend.

Reminder to teams who have not PM'd me their in/out for season 8 and their GM of the year vote, please get them to me by the end of the week.

Thank you to the 11 GM's who have responded already.

ANNOUNCEMENT


Regular season awards will be named after the postseason concludes. One thing I've been thinking about adding to this is a GM or Executive of the Year award to be named after the season. I would ALL like GM's to vote on this. GMs can vote for anyone but themselves and the GM with the highest number of votes will be honored during awards season. Please PM me your vote by next weekend at the latest. Hopefully people will put a bit of thought into this and it can add one more thing to BaF.

Finally, as some teams have now reached their offseason and people move their focus away from BaF and a deep Knicks run in the playoffs, I want to get a quick commitment for season 8 from all GM's. Please PM me your 'in/out' for the 2024-25 season along with your GM of the Year vote before 4/21.

If you one of the 10 GM's that have done this already please ignore but since I don't know who is in or not figured I would send out my yearly roll call just in case the message goes unseen from our commish. He would like a PM for season 8 if you are in and a vote for GM of the year.
