Mavs GM OldSchoolNoBull probably deserves for Mark Cuban to fire him. Felt like I was digging out of a hole from the first day - was in a pick deficit from the RL Porz deal, had a hard time finding a good deal for Porz in-game, managed to put together a playoff team but was disappointed by a lower seed, and then did a sudden go-young about-face after FA that may not have been the best move. I may have both underestimated Dipo's value(I really thought I'd given him a bad contract and am amazed Spree ended up getting Ayton for him) and overestimated DLo's value(he's overpaid for sure but with only one year left on the contract after the current season of the game, I just don't see it as as toxic as some). The team I finished with is not how I envisioned it. Oh well. Luka is still a generational talent, Randle is a great running mate, and there's some good young pieces around them and DLo...Donte, Zubac, Cedi, etc. Not my finest GMAT hour, but whatever.

Jerry Reinsdorf should be pleased with Bulls GM OldSchoolNoBull, however, as I've re-tooled the roster from last season and constructed a roster full of 24-and-under youth led by blue-chips Michael Porter Jr., Marvin Bagley, and Darius Garland, and taken the bold swing-for-the-fences high-risk high-reward move of making Talen Horton-Tucker our SG of the future. And I've left the team with almost all of their picks(and then some) and a bunch of cap space. I think this is a really fun team that Billy Donovan will mold into a competitive team in the future, and a team that could go in a bunch of different directions. I think the Bulls have one of the brightest futures in the game. I would've liked to get a consolidation deal in, but I just couldn't find it.

C - Wendell Carter Jr. / Kai Jones / Daniel Gafford
PF - Marvin Bagley / Eric Paschall / Jarred Vanderbilt / Zeke Nnaji
SF - Michael Porter Jr. / Kenrick Willams / Robert Woodward / Chuma Okeke
SG - Talen Horton-Tucker / Keon Johnson / Ty Jerome
PG - Darius Garland / Coby White / Theo Maledon

You want to run the playoffs again?

[Ralnor]

Scott,

Magic with the #1 pick... niiiiice lol.

But where are the Grizzlies???

[OldSchoolNoBull]

You want to run the playoffs again?

Sure if you need me to. When should I start? The two issues referenced above need to be sorted out first(I assume one of the 'Wolves' is supposed to be 'Grizzlies').

Can you email Scott and find out - got a lot going on boss thanks

Scott has mailed me the corrected results. I will start the playoff threads tomorrow as it is late now.

[RiotPunch]

Dang, really thought my Thunder would crack the playoffs this time around.

Had a wild weekend, sorry I was unable to contribute rankings, Scott.

[OldSchoolNoBull]

Playoff threads are up! Sorry for the delay, had to get some things straightened out.

Let's wait for writeups before voting. Though it seems like some GMs have left the game already...

This is feeling pretty dead in the water. For that reason, I already voted. You did a great job at posting all of the rotations... I say we just dive into voting, before we lose everyone’s interest

Some people were upset about not getting time for a writeup last time though...but maybe leaving it open-ended at this point isn't the most efficient thing either. Let's do it this way - I'm going to quote bomb everyone right here and remind them to do write-ups and vote. Let's give it 24-ish hours for write-ups and then voting can commence regardless after midnight tomorrow(in the unlikely event that everyone who wants to do a writeup does one before then, then voting can commence earlier). Your votes will stand.

[Context]

I think we can move onto voting in the conference finals now - we got all the write ups we’re gonna get

DN specifically said he's gonna do one. Let's wait.

Also, don't know where Riot/Conor disappeared to but he's usually one of the most active players.

[RiotPunch]

Sorry brethren, didn't realize we were doing Playoffs.
