Build a Franchise (Season 4) Free Agency Edition- Announcement page 34

[Strick]

Could've sworn someone told me Whiteside would be an immovable contract...

Schroeder too

Porter on the other hand... that will be interesting to say the least

[bringbackhoffa]

During free agency he was. We have some things in place that can’t be done until January, so it wouldn’t have been wise.

well i figured half the squad would be traded by January anyway. Just have to keep you head above water in the tough west until that point.

Here’s our rotation that won the chip vs this year’s. I think I can manage for a month.

19/20 season vs 20/21 season

PG: Russell Westbrook - John Wall
SG: Gary Harris - Dillon Brooks
SF: Jerami Grant - Jerami Grant
PF: Domantas Sabonis - Domantas Sabonis
C: LaMarcus Aldridge - TBD

Bench
Lou Will - Lou Will
Steven Adams - Wendell Carter JR.
Reggie Bullock - Spencer Dinwiddie

I’ll miss Aldridge’s production early on, but I think my bench will make up for the scoring portion.

Sabonis with the bump will make up for the LMA production, so you just need to have someone make up Sabonis SIM production

Could've sworn someone told me Whiteside would be an immovable contract...

who told you that? Whiteside is a SIM beast. He fits the narrative the SIM loves for bigs. Does he shoot a high FG% (yup), does he rebound at a good rate (yup), does he block shots (yup). The SIM doesn't factor him being a complete moron

Idk I would have to go way back in the PM archives
Yeah, he is good on the sim so it was a bit sarcastic but someone early on told me I would likely be stuck with the Whiteside, Schroeder, and Porter contracts. I am just glad I didn't have to give up assets/picks to accomplish it to this point

Breaking news: Jordan Bell's agent has just got word of the buyout and is not taking it well

$232/2 - 12ppg, 8rpg, 1blk in sim. I don’t think he’s a sim beast. He was definitely a 2k beast though. I like the deal for Minny.

Come on really? We can make a million of these comparisons. It doesn’t do justice. I won’t even bash Lee cause I like him, and I know you gotta be kidding.

KF20 was playing him 21 MPG because he was trying to get Allen and Ibaka all minutes. Whiteside is definitely a SIM beast. Play him 30+ minutes and he's going to put up monster numbers

[Smash3]

welp that basically does it for FA boys and girls 5 days in.

some of my favorite contracts were (only going to list 5 here):

The Golden State Warriors have agreed to sign Spencer Dinwiddie for $70/4 years.
The Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to sign Serge Ibaka for $65/3 years.
The Portland Trailblazers have agreed to sign Kyle Lowry for $85/4 years.
The Toronto Raptors have agreed to sign Joe Harris for $30/4 years.
The Golden State Warriors have agreed to sign Domantas Sabonis for $175/5 years

then the pelicans did a nice job scooping up young rotational players and the 2 trades they made were a thing of beauty.

Yup there were really no bad deals in FA, everyone got what they wanted.

that was only in 21 minutes per game though

He had Allen playing a majority of minutes.

Thats like like a per 36 of 20ppg 14rbg and almost 2 blocks per game on high 50% from the field. I consider that godly production from Whiteside. factor in he has one of the highest DEF ratings in the sim as well not many guys have over 80+ defensive rating.

Maybe. I guess we’ll see what Orl does, and how he really does at 30mpg.

there were a few overpay for the bird rights guys but the teams that didn't want to lose them and not be able to replace them know what they needed to do.

Allen > Whiteside

I think they are pretty equal in the SIM but obviously when you factor in contract there is no debate.

[HEZI]

Whiteside is going to get a SIM bump too as he had a better year in Portland that last year in Miami

Orlando is going to be a tough team they got some nice pieces over there

[mpharris36]

absolutely he averaged 16/14/3 on 62% from the field. He is going to be at least another 3.5 star player.

The SIM doesn't factor in switchability or spacing type statistics because those can't be measured...so that is why productive bigs in the traditional categories kill it.

Hence the Wiseman pick.

yeah after that trade i have moved orl up to a lock in the east...
