Tatum is the only top tier player in the East.

Kawhi is going to be a monster at 5 stars and his defense uptick if they don't adjust for anything with this years play in the final version. If they are just going 2020-21 campaign which they are and Kawhi defense rating got fixed he is as top tier as you get.

I'm talking IRL. A sim team would be way different.

Depending on how good Haliburton is in the sim y'all could be a 50+ win team. Top 4 in the conference.

In the SIM it would be a win for west still...but IRL it would be a blood bath.

I would make a case to throw my boy Bane (west needs more spacing) in there and the east might want to add in Morant.

Sim Bane (since scoring goes off PPG and he passes a lot IRL) will be more of a 15 ppg role player. More on the level of Lonzo than a star. Your biggest factor is MPJr. His defense and shooting really ties your team together.

Wizards had the worst record last year and fell to 5th. That sh*t made me wanna say forget tanking with the way the odds are changed now.

This should be a good draft though haven’t really been following anything so far but heard it’s a deep one

Thank you Sim for finally seeing my 2021-22 vision.

4.5 star Rudy Gobert going on the block as of January 15

I know I can drop but I still have to "hope" for the best in regards to those 2d. There is def a bunch of plan b dudes I have my eye on tho. Top five should be stacked.

The only time I'm rooting for Boston in a lottery lol.

That and I've been praying Kawhi's injury ratings are low lol. Y'all don't want me getting an IRL top 10 player.
