I like Dallas as much as anyone. Sooner or later the SIM is going to like them too.

Dallas finishes near the top every single year. Deeeez is one of the best.

I'll mention again Dinwiddie was +6 and led your team in +/-. He's +27 on the season (tied with Harden for best on your team) and you're talking about benching him for Cole (who's -32, only Grayson Allen is worse)?

I mean you do you but I know a few posters here will be happy you benched a good 3 and D player.

I'm hoping he balances out my bench because we keep getting blown out on the bench. A few more of these crazy quarters, plus/minuses and I'll be joining team spread sheet :lol:

If you decide on a mini retool, something like Dinwiddie for Moody....

Nothing is ever untouchable to me, if you see a way to match salaries I'm always listening. You know Dinwiddie is gaining stars back next year with his play this year.

Garrett Temple has been a great late addition to the team.

Good win tonight against Toronto.

Harrell was a beast.

Outrebounded 33 to 46 with Moses, Westbrook, and Ben on my roster too... Makes no sense smh. Imma just hope I break out this cold streak before whenever I play Portland because I know they're up soon.

all in all holding Embiid to 33% shooting and needing 27 shots to get 29 points is a major win.

I think you were hurt by the bullock/bertans off the bench. 9-16 combined from 3 for them seemed like the difference. You also held Tobias to literally nothing.

Also 10 missed FT's killed you, but you know that is an issue with the guys you have.

I mean I knew my defense would be able to stop Embiid from the field and lock down Tobias. I got a lot of highly rated guys. We're going to be shooting about 22-34 from the line most nights so I'm ready for freethrow losses too. What I'm not prepared for is being outrebounded by 10.

I think you should banish Grayson Allen personally. He's not working in that starting 5. At the very least move him to SG and Harden to SF.

My biggest regret in this game is not pushing on Giannis in the initial draft. Giannis, Beal, Holliday was such a dope trio.

He and I were in a bidding war and I relented. Giannis had just broken out but that next season was when he established mvp level play.

I get why you tried it against Deeeez but it doesn't seem to equal doubling the paint. Afaik, anyone who's used it has just gotten blitzed.

Good W tonight. Not too often you see Fox foul out and the big man leading the way in assists.

Pooch missed out playing his full roster against me

getting him for $400 ended up being a steal when all the stars went for closer to $500 in the initial draft so he had the extra $100 to pair him with better players the a majority of the league. Ended being one of the best initial draft star signings.

The best, imo. Maybe Westbrook at first. Tatum rivals long term.

I gotta find a way to get LeBron going. 3 subpar games in a row from the back-to-back league MVP.

SIM tryna tell him Father Time is undefeated or is this just a slow start?

Time to join the spreadsheet frenzy now that its weekend, my only gripe is how do you make the slight changes needed from day to day basis? Seems too much work

Tough match up vs the Clips today, lets see if Capela can pull an Embiid vs Gobert...
