MP has always built big time offensive teams with shooting. I remember those Dlo/Beal/Hayward/Love teams with shooting and spacing with no defense.

He now went completely grind it out defensive oriented.


I mean honestly? I've tried the offense thing but when you got a team like yours in San Antonio we're all just kicking the tires. I'm trying to at least implement a No Layup Rule in Utah to make it a grind.

I'm a big defensive guy so I am really interested to see how it plays out. It's all about getting creative.

Putting a potpourri of picks on the block along with Grayson Allen. Looking to shed 35 bucks.
2023 1st- (From Sacramento) San Antonio owns the right to swap this pick with any 1st round pick they own at the time of the draft. Indiana gets whichever pick is lower (Sacramento or San Antonio).- via Indiana (Utah now gets the lower pick Sacramento or San Antonio).
2023 2nd- From Portland- (via the Lakers- via Miami- via Golden State- via Dallas- via Miami (Portland gets it's pick back))- via Utah
2023 2nd- From San Antonio- (via Boston)
2023 2nd- From Memphis- via Cleveland- via Miami

If you're interested in this or pitching with a three way, let me know.

When you're 0-2 you celebrate the little wins.

We got our two championships you think we care about going 0-2 in the regular season :lol:

That was the past Melo. I'm the real new era.

Have a little bit of newfound cap space. About $40 total now. Looking to possibly deal 1 or both of my 2023 2nds projected in the 30s for up to $40 in rotational pieces. Open to possibilities.

A nice win against a rock solid Pelican's team. Trae with 30 and 13 assist. Siakam with 18 and 10. DeRozan with a very efficient 15 and 5. I got solid performances out of just about all my others. I am liking this P. Williams dude. He filled in great for Hunter.

Doncic played great and Ingram had an efficient game. Huerter tried to make me pay a price for trading him as well :lol:

Gg Lakers Country.

We blew a 20 pt lead amongst some other things I noticed in this groups first game together that will be addressed. Also gotta be better at rebounding if we’re gonna compete. I’ll fix that ASAP.

I still think I could use a upgrade at center over M. Williams and Jordan. I don't have any draft capital to move because of Stepien. I will look at all offers; but not really looking for a star who will cost me 1/3 to 1/2 my quality depth.

Capela feasting off the bench as Sengun was in early foul trouble. Went against Gobert and went to work. Come and get this man to do the dirty work for your championship run!

Mark Williams- $39/3(4) years and Ousmane Dieng- $23/3(4) years as a package to upgrade my center position. Dieng was the 11th pick in the 2022 draft. Mark was the 15th pick in the 2022 draft.

Both of their physical measurables and potential upside is great for their respective positions. I won't part with them for peanuts but they can be had.
