I feel like I'm okay with riding this rotation out for the rest of the season. Just gotta string some wins together to sneak into the play in tourney

Posting again for visibility;

Lonzo + picks available for an upgrade at any position, can give 26 Heat 1st or my 25 - 27 1sts depending on the player. My pick can still end up being Cooper Flagg so I would be looking for a difference maker

Isaac available as well PF with 87 DEF

MJ Burks and Hield also available, ideally would want backup big but open to different type of players as well cuz I feel I have enough gunners in here

KP has been a monster in the sim so I can still go all in this year surrounding him, or cash in and get someone younger who will fit the LaMelo - Green - Zion core. Zion - KP works well together so I wont be desperate to move him

Let me know if you see a deal that makes sense for both parties

Fears nothing too. Big shot maker HS...
I remember when some laughed when I drafted him...I would have never traded him if I didnt make up my mind to compete HS.
Very happy you got him -I can tell you appreciate him and his $29 salary :lol:

Yo good game Hoffa. A close one. 29 lead changes. We really need to improve our rebounding though. 36 ain’t gonna cut it bredren! Still I see progress from the start of the season until now. We’re headed in the right direction. Just gotta continue to fine tune some things.

you were too predictable on this one :lol: ...It was a dunk- Zach is not athletic but I wouldnt be too cocky if I were you- Length makes these centers elite. Not to ention his size. You dont see e posting Zach's dunk on Wemby. Zach will get better and IMO, he will have more value than your boy TC...

What are you talking about. What does this have to do with you and Zack. Not sure your why you defending against me posting him getting posterized. Acting like you schooling me on something. :lol:


Like what’s predictable ? I see this clip today when I typed in Yves name and post it and you out here telling me to not be cocky. WTF.

Bruh you tripping.

You must think this has something to do with you. News flash. It didn’t. Let me guess if you like the player you take it personal? Lol

I posted another clip of him Yamming it on Edey head in December as well. Where was you then?

Since you inserted yourself…

Now I’m going to be cocky cause….

Seems like Edey likes being dunked on Yves….cause it’s happened more than once

Relax bro...I thought you we're being playful because I made a post that Edey made the All star rookie game...I didn't take anything "personal" :lol:. Those days are long gone for me. It brings no value to my time on real gm. Seriously...
If you want to know why I post about Edey in general- well its because I would have drafted him if I had a pick in last years draft and I'm happy to see his success in his journey so far...
and for the record...didnt you say we're grown men or something along those lines? you seem to be taking my post "personally". Are we having fun or what TC?
