I did too much experimenting with strategies and rotations in the beginning, now I'm playing catch up. Nice little jump into 5th place. Still a lot of work to do.

If indy has remained quiet in the East as I think they have they just got leapfrogged by 3 teams, if things mesh in Boston they will be a tough group, with assets to trade at the deadline

Many have treated Jan15 the first and last day of trading which was a big mistake

We not done wheeling and dealing. Contenders, rebuilders, and anywhere in between hit me up if you’re trying to make some moves

I am not worried about being leap frogged. To be honest, I expect to be. If I do not make another move this season, I will have this team intact for 2023/24 plus a 2023 1st round pick ( probably the Spurs ). I wanted to build the ultimate 3D team around Trae. I think I am on the right track; but still have a lot of work to do.

I agree with your 2nd point of view as well. The 15th is not the end all be all.

I watched the Hawks vs Pacers game so I think its appropriate that I post my takes from it.

1- Mathurin and Jackson are as good as advertised.
2- McConnell needs to be at least a 80 on defense. He harassed Trae all night long. He is currently only a 66 on defense.
3- Once the trade smoke clears in Hotlanta, there will be a beast ready to be unleashed. Okongwu had 18 points, 20 rebounds, and 4 blocks last night.

Very true. For anyone like that if they need to clear up cap space you know where to find me. I'm about to have quite a bit open soon.

I'm not done dealing. I'm pausing for a day or two just to wait to see where everyone lands.

It comes to a point where when you send out 10 PMs about players and all 10 PMs come back with the same answer the player has been traded that you decide you might just be better off waiting.

I'm happy with the first round of deals. I lost a key player but replaced his offense fully so just sacrificed his defense in return for another young rotation player and some draft capital and moved a center to become less center heavy up front.

Still hoping to upgrade my third big and add a couple of 10th/11th man type guys to protect against injuries.

I wonder if I should use pre-trade or post-trades lineups for the January, 15th games.

Bish said he would post trades on BAF 15th. Which is after the 14th games are played sometime today.
