Exactly. The only knock on Bron that is legitimate is that Father Time is undefeated, so he’s been getting injured at a higher rate than ever before. But he is still a top 3 player in the league whoever he’s on that court.

Yo I might stream a game or two on 2k today to pass time. Who’s trying to see their team play? Chicago’s new team should be a fun matchup

New intern definitely mistook Vucevic with Jokic

After seeing his numbers this year I expect him to go down

Been watching my team on 2k and running my offense against the defensive standards of SAC and LAC. If we can score on these guys then we’re in good shape imo. I know 2k isn’t BAF sim, but it’s fun to watch.

JV straight up beasting.. time to bring him home.

But in all seriousness he could be this years Whiteside in the SiM. But given the Cavs front court of Bam, Ayton, and Randle you kind of need multiple whitesides or +90 defensive centers to mitigate B,A,R

Maybe. Cousins to Milwaukee might get him back in the NBA, but do we know if Wolverine left him in the game? Was he in the initial build? If not, are they too far along in the final build to get him back in? If he's not in the game, he's still exempt.
