at that 3rd qtr...

also got nice 9 minutes from the SIM for my starting PG... :lol:

24 minutes for a guy not even in my playoff rotation (due to foul trouble I suppose).

played 3 good qtrs on the road...just got to cut that 1 bad qtr out the game and somehow get Haliburton to play...not much depth at my PG spot.

Keep learning young bucks.


Playoffs can be tough. You never know who may get the call off the bench due to foul trouble or injury, and rotations can get shredded quick. I got lucky game 1 with nobody in foul trouble.

Yeah I expect some rough patches especially with how young my team is. Just didn't expect someone to essentially foul out in 9 minutes with 5 turnovers. Seems a bit extreme but gotta roll with the punches and hopefully get a little more luck in game 2.

SIM loves them obviously.


they almost won 60 games this year in a pretty stacked east outside of 2 teams the rest of the teams were competitive.

The Collins/Clarke duo is nasty in the SIM. I think in the regular season they avg over 40 pts combined on only like 20 shots...which is bananas efficiency.

Close game though. LeBron hopefully will show out for you at home.

thats been the case all year though. Collins was given a 5 star so he is one of the best players...the SIM loves that Clarke type big that is super efficient in scoring. Philly has been that good all regular season with those two leading the way so that is why it isn't a surprise at least to me.

Oh, I’m not surprised overall. I know the SIM values that team and has for the past two years.

What is throwing me off is McCollum is out and Okogie also went down for game 2. Yet the SIM is essentially telling me that even with a superstar reigning SIM MVP (and arguably the best player in the league), along with all the depth I’ve amassed, we’re not good enough to get a game on the road in Philly where they shoot 18% from 3 and are missing 2 key players.

Honestly, the EZ Money route is the way to go. Unless there's a major injury my Sim coaches just get pissed off with me if I **** with the lineup too much for injuries.

I got a lot of "Oh really? You think Jeff Green should play more now? Here's Drew Eubanks. How does that suit ya???"

That was a HUGE win for us to take HCA after failing to secure it in the final games of the season. Happy with the way my team fought back in the 4th. Honestly, we were lucky to come away with the W. Sacramento is ELITE defensively, so it’s a great test. Must win game for us tonight.

Gonna be tough again tonight too with a gimpy CP3, so we'll see how the game handles it. I don't think we lose if we have his presence to steady your big run in the 4th but that's why Westbrook is the ultimate wildcard when he's aggressive... can get my guys in foul trouble easily :nod:, might be asking too much of Fultz if CP3 can only play like 18 max or whatever the game does.
