Not liking how this is starting out at all. Feels like Harden all over. For some reason the sim doesn't want me acquiring 4.5 or 5 star players.

I have your 2023 if its 1 - 14. If you want it back, lets talk.

Really wish I could've kept Harrell but I needed a point guard in the worst way. Eballa has him looking good. Sure he'll put up some 40+ double/double games like he did for us last season.

The early takeaway for me is, there will be parity. Anyone can win/lose on any given night.

At least until the trade deadline rolls around and GMs begin to punt, positioning themselves for the draft.

I may be a seller. I have some impact players that can be the difference between hoisting the LOB trophy or not. Good thing is none of my guys are on crazy contracts. My most expensive player is only $300 dollars. You can get yourself an impactful player for even less than that.

Y’all know where to find me. I answer every PM too.

Good game from y'all too. NGL I had to check the rotation page to make sure it was foul trouble that got your starters benched and not you throwing the game lol.

This should be the first game of the season for you I'd say you're a clear favorite. I'm still keeping to my prediction that y'all will be the best team in the West outside of San Antonio even with the early losses.

GG, man!

I figured that switching White and Rui to the bench might give my team more balance after back to back low scoring games. You got some really good pieces and look forward to seeing what you put together!

I feel like 120 ppg might've been a modest prediction for my squad based off these early season results. 120 points might be an off night for these guys.

Now I gotta figure out what the hell I'm doing defensively lol. San Antonio and Charlotte are elite on both ends I can't beat either team in 7 without a lot of luck I don't think. My only real defensive strategy so far seems to be keeping the best players on opposing squads in foil trouble (can't score from the bench).

Imma get modest before the injury gods come and ruin my preseason prediction like they did last year. I'm still mad I lost Ben half the season and missed out on 50 wins lol.

I'll need to see San Antonio and Charlotte start taking Ls to believe this lol. There's parity outside of those two.

Captain obvious with this take. :lol:

What’s understood doesn’t need to be explained.

But for the rest of the league I can see anyone taking an L any night. Especially before 1/15th. I wouldn’t feel comfortable betting on these games.

Humble don't mean delusional. We still got 3 blowout wins to start the season I'm doing something right.

Looks like defense didn't bothering showing up in the first half but brought it in the second half, holding the LAL to 28 points.

Tough road trip continues next up the Clips and future Hornet SGA. Definately will have to switch up offense as Gobert would eat us up in the Post
