Hey guys,

I didn't want to start a separate thread for this, but I've taken over the Bobcats in the GM a Team game on the T&T Games Board. I was wondering what direction most of you would take with the Bobcats, whether they need specific upgrades to the roster right now, or they require time and building around younger pieces/clearing out some of the dead weight. I'm using the Bobcats current roster and am open to moving anyone minus Crash either way (whether I'm going to be a win-now or later team).

Thanks for any help in advance.

haha. :) ive had a banner year for fantasy football. i was in 4 leagues this year. 1 big money redraft, one keeper, one dynasty and the realgm league. i finished in first place in the regular season in 3/4. made the playoffs in 4/4. made the championship game in 3/4 and won everything in 2/4. sadly, i got destroyed in the championship of my big money league yesterday. jamaal charles won me 2 leagues and kicked my ass in a 3rd. only if all years could be this successful.

as a huge chelsea fan, i cant find it in my heart to help someone with a wayne rooney avatar. ;)

but i'll try... is rebuilding an option? if so, your best bet would be to get diaw off the team. find a way to shed one of the salaries of our centers and perhaps move felton (or dj) while you can still get something for him. keep wallace, jax, dj (or felton) and derrick brown.

I stopped at "chelsea fan" :lol:

I think rebuilding is the way I want to go, but Wallace is really the only guy I don't want to move. If I get a decent offer for SJax based on his recent play and can dump some contracts with him in a deal, I won't be afraid to do it. Thanks for the advice though.

The thing I don't like about this season is that the tribes doesn't seem to be even challenge wise - Heroes have James and Ruppert for strenght with addition of Colby and JT as all-arounds comparing to quite weak Coach and Randy on the other side. Of course numbers are not always the key as last two seasons showed.

Among others I hoped for Penner returning.

I'm pretty let down that there is no Johnny Fairplay.

I'll never forget that "my grandma just died" gig he pulled. That was amazing.

So my first game of NBA 2k10 and Crash pulls down 17 boards along with 19 points and 2 steals en route to a win over Boston. Funny how he pulls boards down in the game as well.
