Golden State, tbh I can't really judge the moves. NewEra will basically rotate players nonstop until the deadline. Right now the fit isn't the best. There's a lot of drive and kick players but Klay is the only real shooting threat. Still Zion has a long term clock and NewEra will find a way to compete if he's going to do anything.

A tight one between Cleveland and the Clippers.

Some surprising easy wins: Miami over Portland, Houston over Utah, Atlanta over New York.

John Collins has been great off the bench. Averaging almost 20 pts and a double double. 22/14/4/2 tonight on 50% shooting. He's also shooting 78% in the paint this season IRL. Just need for him to get his 3pt percentage up.

Wasn't able to get an updated DC as I was out all day today, but I'm happy to finally land OG. Defensively I'm going to try and grind out some wins and see what happens. We can switch, we can guard 1-5 and sim Simmons isn't a liability on offense in the sim. The man took 30 shots :lol:

Giddey: 21 Points 22 assists
Ayton: 26 points 15 rebounds 4 assists
Bam: 28 points 4 assists 4 steals
Tatum: 37 points 7 rebounds

this is the type of production i expect from my team. maybe next year i'll get this on a consistent basis with their sim bumps. or maybe it happens now and i've unlocked giddey's 4.5 potential star rating and tatum's 5 star potential rating. nonetheless this is what i envision lol

cavs will be back running schit!

No turning back now.

What are the odds Lyles drops 20 off the bench :noway:

I really did not need Lyles. At the time of the trade Holiday made much more sense. But he was great injury insurance should Siakam and/or one of my SF/PFs get injured.

The goal is to place as much floor spacing around embiid and fox and let them go to work. My team obviously isn’t where I truly want it to be but I’m pleased with what I’m seeing so far as a rough draft.

Embiid and Fox gets you an "A" for your rough draft lmao.

I watched that game. Murray roasted my Hawks. The Hawks were actually in this game ( within single digits ) with about 8 minutes to go. They held the Joker to 14 points but he had 18 rebounds and 10 assist. Playing without Trae made winning this game almost a impossible task.

I've a good test against a solid Nets team. Their front line of Butler, Grant, and Sabonis ain't no joke. Brunson, IQ, Kuzma, and Barton can light it up any given game,
