I am surprised that trio getting way more love than my trio of Conley-Carroll-Blake actually, think mine consists more in form players and offer better spacing with also having the best player out of that six

I´ll give you a hint: look at the starting lineups of the contenders, do they have any glaring weaknesses? Or players who aren´t really starters?

Your team is right on the bubble as a contender to me. Could have easily just put you in the playoff tier. Going by your definition you shouldn't be a contender either though. Vonleh is obviously extremely unproven and "isnt really a starter" yet, but he did look great in SL so we'll see. Still also don't like Al Jefferson and now that you have Jrue, George, and Kawhi you don't need his scoring nearly as much. You'd be better off with a defensive 5. I just thought IF IF IF Jrue and George come back 100% that you have a great 1-3. Besides them your team is pretty mediocre though. Bench is ehhh.

Like I said a lot of teams are very close together, but I had to rank them regardless. GMs did well.

Some one trade me a damn SF , I'm like 14 and 1 after my Avery Bradley trade in 2k , but still Corey Brewer and his no shot is killing me (although he is good on the fast break)

Aaron Gordon killed the SL this year, and his shot looks much improved. His future seems to be a hybrid forward in the Draymond mold, so I could see him and Draymond making a rad duo if his shot comes along.

Justin Anderson also had a great SL and looks like a top notch 3/D guy in the making, who I would probably just start since he won't be asked to do much besides the aforementioned 3/D. He looks like one of the safer picks in the draft to me. McDermott could also wake up this year, so I'd say you're good at SF. Just unproven and young. Stauskas is another shooter waiting in the wings. 1 or 2 of these guys are bound to breakout. Throw Exum in there also.

PG: J. Teague / D. Exum / J. Young
SG: A. Bradley / N. Stauskas / D. Waiters
SF: J. Anderson / C. Brewer / D. McDermott
PF: D. Green / A. Gordon / F. Aldemir
C: B. Lopez / N. Pekovic / E. Udoh

That's how I'd go. Brewer will stabilize your bench a little more so it's not so young too. Balances things a bit.

I just HATE Dion Waiters :lol:

Great job man, as someone who usually does this I understand the annoyance that goes along with it.

Agreed on Aaron Gordon and Justin Anderson things , part of the reason I traded for dray was cause he was a perfect fit next to Brook and the defensive potential of dray + Aaron Gordon was scary

I just have too many young guys and not enough minutes in my rotation to develop them all

Aaron Gordon had an amazing SL. Looked great. Was mad when he was taken

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/238892/Heat-To-Sign-Josh-Richardson-On-Three-Year-Rookie-Deal

So the question on everyones lips is:

Do we support our own players in real life to become better players or not? Josh can be my future shooting guard with ease and will slot in so nicely if he translates, but at the same time he is a cHeat player fcuk them, rat riley, and their wrinkle loving sweaty state :dontknow:

Thanks boss.

If you want to post your rotation up Ill add you to the scrum. Your team was solid from what I remember.

I think that was a fair trade. I got some vets, and a good young player, and I know mpharris would love to form a Westbrook/Beal/Drummond beast mode.

Looking to trade Olynyk for a SG!

yeah I loved my team, but hard to pass up that big 3 for years to come. Now I can have that sustained success.

well just going to be honest... I think Fury got the short end of that one and it's not really close. Parker was toast last year and I thought was a bad pick by MPH. Batum had a pretty bad year also... although he is still young so he could bounce back. Also, are we operating under salary cap? Its very likely that the trade works under cap from just a quick glance, but just wondering...
