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


Joe Harris for that low is a ridiculous steal. I just don’t know what happened there.

'
seriously he is going to get like a 4 year 60 million dollar contract in real life. Which is like 14% of the cap.

2010 got him for less than 3% of our cap. Complete steal.

No offense to the other teams, such as Brooklyn, Dallas, Chicago.. who could easily be there but to me the Elite 4 currently are:

Indy v Cavs

Blazers v Pelicans

Should be some epic battles all the way around

Those were great deals. The two lower end deals that absolutely knocked me out of my chair were:

The Portland Trailblazers have agreed to sign Ricky Rubio for $6/3 years. ($18 total)
The New Orleans Pelicans have agreed to sign Aron Baynes for $1/4 years. ($4 total)

Those are two starter level players for pennies. Baynes more on the fringe but can start in a pinch and fits Pooch's bomb squad.



Sabonis for only $175 is great value. Thought he would would be at least in the $250 range.

He was 19-12-5 on great percentages. He is going to be a 4 star player. At that discounted price is really nice for NE!

I think Brooklyn is a bit more senior than CLE so I would but them ahead just on the age factor and Dame and Embiid are SIM gods. We really need to see what the SIM gives Tatum/Ayton/Bam before I put them over Indy and Brooklyn. But it will be a dog fight there for sure.

It was great for 2010, because we know he would have paid up to keep him. Getting him for that price allowed him to bring back JJ too.

Ima be so heated. At least 2k is giving Tatum his respect. He just got upgraded to 90. Murray went from 84 to 87 too. Crossing my fingers the sim does the same. Waited 3 years to finally compete...

I don’t think anyone is counting you out. You’re still a championship contender imo.

The only reason I put you behind the Nets and Indy this year is because I think they both have 2 locks of 5 star guys. Dame and Embiid are 5 star locks. And Luka and KAT are 5 star locks.

Tatum if I had to guess is 4 or a 4.5 star with 5 star potential. That is just a guess. And what will the SIM put Murray at. I don't think they factor in playoffs in there ratings.

But anything can happen. Then you got CHI and Philly who are playoff teams as well. Also gotta think Charlotte jumped into that mix as well with there offseason. Then we haven't even talked about LeBron and Jimmy Buckets and Curry and Booker and Harden led teams....man the east has become legit.

That is 11 teams...I didn't even mention ORL either...yikes

The only 3 teams I see having no real shot is Washington/Detroit/Boston. Everyone else is in play.
