How does my team look in comparison to how my team started AND how will I fare in the playoffs?

I think the health of Mo Williams, and consistency or lack thereof Mike Miller is what is going to make or break your team in the playoffs.

You got a steal in getting Manu for Roy, but then kind of blew it giving up Blake + Manu for Love and Mayo. Unless Mayo can come back strong, and I mean really strong that trade was a pretty bad one.

I think overall you got a little bit better.

Thanks for the reply.

I mostly agree but I think Mo Williams should be pretty consistent...Mike Miller is a huge question mark for sure.

And I actually traded OJ Mayo a month later in the big Kidd for Dwight package. I guess you missed that. So yeah...I definitely got rid of Mayo pretty quickly after I saw that he wasn't going to amount to anything.

You got raped in some of those trades, but I'd imagine at the time they might have sounded better than they do now.

You're right I totally miss that trade.

Mo Williams has been surprising with his assist numbers. Dudes average 5 assist for his career and all of a sudden jumps up to 7.3 for the season. You would figure with LeBron gone he would be chucking a lot more than passing.
