They have team passes now? That's good. At least you didn't buy the League Pass.

What part of the country do you live in?

I moved to the land of the enemy

LA


Oh man. How'd you end up out there? Do you like it? I think it's great to be where the mountains meet the sea. Traffic? Not so much. :lol:

Yeah

Work and babies brought me out here

Not so bad so far but I miss the street life and just finding places

But it’s a lot easier here with two little ones

And my work is out here so ....

I’ll take it! Competitive young team, not experienced or good enough to win, but they play hard and the young players have gotten valuable experience without their best player KP all season. And wind up with no dramatic injuries to any of their core young players. They then wind up with the number one overall pick and are able to sign a max player and one borderline max cat!

Sounds like a successful season to me

"How this works: These forecasts are based on 50,000 simulations of the rest of the season. Elo ratings — which power the pure Elo forecast — are a measure of team strength based on head-to-head results, margin of victory and quality of opponent. Our CARMELO forecast doesn’t account for wins and losses; it is based entirely on our CARMELO player projections, which estimate each player’s future performance based on the trajectory of similar NBA players."

But that's why they play the games, Wingo.

Our youth could throw their projections way off plus having a new coach who has his team 100% behind him as Fiz seems to could also be a factor in where we finish in the standings. How do you project in a new coach? You really can't.


What genius said this??
