An outside opinion is always welcome check out the rosters and tell us which ones are your fave

Just browsing through the teams in no particular order

Mecca and the Nets- Embiid, Simmons, Oladipo, Levert, etc. Really solid core

J4remi and the Knicks- Gobert, some solid young players, and a lot of cap flexibility. Idk the pick scenario but some good picks too would make that a fun team

Ezmoney and the Sixers- Turner and CJ are nice and Lonzo, Collins, and Clark seem like really solid value

Melo and the Cavs- helps explain some of the DSJ and Randle love lol. The group of Murray/Lavine/Tatum/Randle/Ayton is solid.

King of Canada and Pacers- Doncic, Zion, KAT, Mitchell, and cap. That’s pretty damn good

Bringbackhoffa and the Hornets- Ja, JJJ, FVV, Siakam, etc and a ton of cap. Really good core

There’s more teams I like but that’s just some teams I like briefly scrolling through.

El Poochio and the Pelicans- Trae, AD, PG, D Robinson, and Trent. Lots of shooting there

Deez Knicks and the Mavs- Giannis and Jokic are good enough to win a lot of games I’m sure. Also like Jrue, White, and Mikal

Those are two I forgot to list. Again, there are other teams that I like whether it’s top talent, young core, cap, or a little bit of a mix. Idk the pick situation either but those could have a ton of value as well

I'm not saying that I have you guys all listed out by A-C; as you say - relationship building is a huge piece of the puzzle.
It's why I will respond despite whatever is going on in my personal life because the relationship I have with SOUL and what I love about the NBA is a huge to me.
I shared the "A-C" bit to explain my mentality vs. the open speculation and talk of others who don't need to be blamed.

TBH, nothing is stopping anyone for trying to make something work with me but the first step is the most important one.
I'd say most of the "first steps" I've received have been ineffective - should be more of a comment on working relation and value of the sender, than the receiver.
You're right though I could at least respond, and I'll make an effort to.
Especially if it was just a simple question - I could have answered those.


Robin, you do know that we can tell when our pm's are even being opened right? They remain in our outbox until we give up and delete them after a few weeks. So, it has nothing to do with the initial trade offers. How can it be when you haven't read them. You are deciding to ignore certain GMs. Out of 7 attempts to make a trade offer to you, only 1 was opened and that was when I offered you Aaron Gordon for Rui and was declined a few days before you traded him for the more expensive, less productive Parker. While others criticized that move, I remained silent because if you prefer Parker for some reason, that's your right. However, if you are saying that offer was such an egregiously bad offer to be ignored for the following months, I have to say that kind of insults me. I wasn't in the camp of asking bish to remove you, and still am not. I am however being swayed toward that position by your own words.

Any chance or interest from GM's to set up a rotation/schedule so everyone gets a chance to see their team play once? [He asks not knowing if NewEra has any interest in doing this anymore]

I'm with whatever, not sure how many GM's are interested. As comical as 2K is, at least it gives us another lane of activity.
