I've never had high star guys on my teams and made it to conference semis in the WC the last 2 seasons so star rating is good but not the end all, be all. If BAF wants to throw me some stars though..

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

Its not Trae against Steph. Its every 5 star player against Steph. I think Gobert ( more one dimensional than Trae ), Durant ( can't stay on the floor ), and AD ( can't stay on the floor )could easily be 4.5 stars.

Well, if I trade a star player in the offseason they go to five stars. Vucevic last year and LeBron this year.

I like my team this year because of its balance. Trae is a five star but no on else is. I am hoping the SIM gives me fair rankings for my shooters and defenders.

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


Iirc I had you third in the east but with some very likely roster balance moves to vault you to 2nd or 1st.

If anyone wants Josh Christopher for a 2nd let me know. He's a good young player, first round value (per 36 averaged 16/5/4/2 last year), I just have a major issue I need to fill on the team and he's the only man I think I can get a future asset for. Hit my PMs I'm off work all week so expect me to be on RealGM full time.

My goal is to break the PPG record next year in the sim. JC just doesn't fit into that vision unfortunately.

Top tier defense, top tier rebounding, high passing, high assists. It was basically set in stone based on how the sim engine has consistently overrated Russ and Simmons.

Mike Conley being top 5 in assist (8 per) this season so far has been a good surprised

its interesting the SIM loves raw counting stats for the stars but I feel like when the games start they value TS% and EFF.

Y'all not ready. If I get this trade through and sign my guy I think I'll have a bench that can go .500.

Pretty much this, I was going to say I'm shocked until you remember how much the game loved those two dudes. The 4.5 stars are going to be interesting now to me.

Curry, Tatum, Morant, Butler, George, Siakim, Towns, Shai, DeRozan as my sleeper pick.

Guys atop the 4 star list
Booker, Mitchell, Gobert, Harden, Zion, Lillard, Paul, Brown etc.
Jazz: Under reconstruction, we'll be back.
