What Gary has been doing with Tatum and the sim itself ain't right.

PG and Harden were low efficient scorers last season. I also don’t think their playing style doesn’t mesh that well. But I do expect for them to be better next year ..

Curry, Joker, and Draymond is the best 3 man to me. They just easily play off each other and excel in their roles.


I think a lot of this is perception, if you look at how Harden and Bron have changed their playing styles, they are a perfect fit nowadays. Harden is playing like prime Nash 2.0, and Bron has shown he can thrive off a playmaker like Harden setting him up. PG13 would be the ideal 2nd option with Harden orchestrating it all to perfection.

This is where the SIM plays themselves and goes too deep down the analytics road. I can’t see how Bron, Harden and PG13 doesn’t win a chip in real life. Bron can fit with anyone in the league, harden can be the distributor while Paul George is the secondary scorer. To me this is an unstoppable trio. Imo, this the best big 3 the league has ever seen.

I should have been a real deal contender last season with Trae, Siakam, and AD. Instead I was a treadmilling 6th to 8th seed all season long. I did not start tanking until the last 10 games of the season to get the 14th seed vs the 15th seed.

You have no idea how frustrating it is to work so much to put together a good team; only for the SIM to treat you like a 8th through 10th seed.

There were times last season I was 6 to 8 games under .500. It took like a 6 game winning streak to get me back into play in contention.

We'll see how their new shakeup affects everything but IRL, the Lakers pairing of AD and LeBron should still be dominant on paper but it isn't on the court because LeBron is so compromised defensively now. So, I guess there's some parity with that.

And thats why I cant take the sim seriously...the game would be more realistic if they had nba players and coaches and even gms as part
of their development team on a regular basis who were consistently involved year after year...

they cant even get arguablely the greatest player in history right in the game...its a joke!


I acquire more like an IRL situation than towards the Sim. It's not the best strategy but I just can't get into "getting under the hood" as much as going for players who I know would kick ass together.
