Great win tonight over the Hornets. Team was dominate in the 4th.

Felt that loss coming. Can't wait to get healthy! Got NOP and SAC coming up, but still won't have PG13 which sucks. Hopefully we can find a way to win those though cause they're the type of games that could bring meaning to playoff scenarios. Now let's see if we can at least win against tonight's injury report...

I can’t be mad at this win everyone played great and everyone was a positive

KP injured while on DNP :lol:

Waiting a few days for a game seems like torture at this point, though with a game against the Spurs coming perhaps I should be more patient.

Be warned, it's a wall of texts. I went back to see some of the initial rosters/lineups out of boredom. Some teams would've developed super nice.

a similar mid/low team like mine, no.

Nikola Mirotic (30) / Larry Nance (18)
Jimmy Butler (36) / PJ Tucker (18)
JJ Redick (30) / Norman Powell (20)

Myles Turner- 32 /Jon Leuer 12/Cole Aldrich 3
John Collins 30/LaMarcus Aldridge 20
Harrison Barnes- 30/Mindaugas Kuzminskas 18
Malik Beasley-30/DeAndre Liggins 18

Ezmoney nailed the starting five.

Russell Westbrook (36) | Matthew Delavadova (14)
Goran Dragic (36) | Norman Powell (12)
Jimmy Butler (36) | Thabo Sefolosha (12)
Mirza Teletovic (24) | Lance Thomas (24)
Roy Hibbert (30) | Josh Mcroberts (18)
I'm not sure the trades that happened, but Smash's first team.

PG: Curry (36) | Barea (12)
SG: C. Lee (20) | JR Smith (28)
SF: Iggy (28) | C. Lee (12) | Otto (8)
PF: Otto (28) Speights (12) | D. Theis (8)
C: Nurkic(32) | Manhimi (12) | Speights (4)
Curry/Nurkic as a starting point, you know NewEra would've traded em both and reacquired them three times.

Besides Steph who was often injured, That team wouldn’t have aged well at all. Half those guys are out of the league lol! If it makes you feel better, I did keep Mo Speights and he did get a ring! :lol:

I have New York, Toronto, and Charlotte coming up. The good news is my Pacers are 100% healthy for only the 2nd time in over a month. The bad news is I am sure the SIM will break one of my players ankles. wrist, etc in the near future.

lol that's how I be feeling. It's rare that I don't have atleast one player on the injury list.

All teams have their injury prone players. But we are breathing some rare air with a injury prone team :lol:

Somehow I did manage to be a couple wins away from the finals that season, even upsetting the 1st seeded Warriors as the 8th seed

C - Anthony Davis (24)Zach Collins (24)
PF - Dragan Bender (28) Anthony Davis (12) Jaylen Brown (8)
SF - Jaylen Brown (28) Bogdan Bogdanovic (20)
SG - Tim Hardaway Jr (36) Wayne Seldon (12)
PG - Kris Dunn (30) Fred VanVleet (18)
Davis/Brown/FVV/Bogdan could've been real good.

Not too bad...I don't think I gave FVV a long term deal or he could have been one of the best contracts in the game. AD making nearly 500 was tough to manage. He did win the MVP for me in the 2nd year. And I did draft MPJ after year 1. But that deal with Hezi for Jaylen Brown was a bad move by me and set me on the path to blow it up because I was never able to surround AD with enough talent to get out of the 1st round in the playoffs.
