Just got home from a weekend wedding a couple hours ago. Had a bit of an issue downloading the sim onto the new laptop. But I finally was able to get the game up and running.

10- 5 star players and 9- 4.5 star players in the initial build this season.

Will release them in about an hour or so.

Ok so if it's 10 players at 5 stars I'm going with:

Trae, Murray, Giannis, KD, LeBron, Embiid, Jokic, Luka, Jimmy, AD.

The 2nd and 3rd phases of free agency sucked, but at least day 1 was a success!

The Steph disrespect continues.

Curry is better at every single aspect of being a basketball player than Trae lol.

Congrats. I'm guessing this mean AD has a high defensive rating.

Playmaking, turnover prevention, getting to the line. Like those are clearly in Trae's advantage lol.

Either way I knew last year he was going to be probably the best offensive player in the league. Expect 30/10 on stupid high TS%.

Sheesh I might need to adjust my ranking. Looking like AD and Trae might dominate

Half the fun in the predictions is that we have no idea of the ratings yet. One they're out it's way easier to make power rankings.

That's what I'm hoping. I've been near the top of the offensive rankings in the past and have no playoff success to show for it, so I'm looking to build around the defense of both him and Murray. Of course, the sim last year didn't agree with how they rated Dejounte but we'll see how it goes this time around.
