11-15

Injuries....

Some biggies! Billups out 70+, Redd out 30+, Sheed out 20+, Lampe, Odom and AK out most or all of this sim.

Atlantic.....

Wiz are out in front with a 7-4 record. Magic are in 2nd at 4-3. Nets are a surprising 3rd, at 5-5. Heat are just a shade below .500 at 6-7. Knicks have lost 4 staright and are now 4-7. Celtics defense still struggling as they fall to 4-9. Sixers finally win, but are still pulling up the rear at 1-10.

Central.....

Raps are still in front at 10-3, best record in the East. Hawks and Bulls are tied for 2nd at 8-4. Hopefully the Bulls arent affected too much with the injury to Michael Redd. The Bucks are 5-3, a good early season run for them. Pistons and Hornets are both 6-4. Pacers and Cavs round out the division.

Midwest.....

TWolves still out in front, with the conferences best record, 7-2. Rockets have a good sim and jump to 2nd in the division at 7-3. Jazz are at .500. Nuggets are 4th at 5-6. Mavs and Spurs are both 5-7, while the Grizz have won 2 straught to get to 3-10.

Pacific.....

Tight division at the top. 5 teams within 1 game, all teams within 2. Sonics 6-4.Warriors 6-5. Blazers 5-4. Suns and Kings 5-5. Lakers 5-6. Clipps 4-6. Should be interesting to see how this division shapes up.

PPG-TMac 29.9
RPG-Oden 14.4
APG-Brown-11.7

[C.C.]

Good sim, but with Redd out 35 days, QRich will need to step up, which he did this sim. Hopefully this injury shouldn't really affect our team that much.

Dalembert off to a bad start, offensively.

Zeke with almost 18 ppg, a couple of steals a game, almost 5 boards a game and just over 10 apg, anotherwords, canceling out Stevie Franchise's production almost every year he was in Clipper land. Only problem is the same one we had with Franchise, the turnovers, almost 4 a game.

Smith, Cabarkapa, and Telfair averaging 25.3 ppg, 13 rpg, and 5.1 apg off the bench, doing their jobs off the bench in the early season, especially Telfair.

Problem is the team is allowing too many points, we'll see if that can change.

Livingston with a monster week. I've had a tough tough schedule thus far, beaten some great teams (Toronto, Chicago, Golden State), lost to some great ones (Chicago, Wiz, Bucks to some extent). Happy to be 6-4.

[GMHornets]

Also, just noticed Erden had a horrendous sim, mainly due to foul trouble. Still loving my front line, though.

Love some of the though put into your posts. This is ideally what this thread is for. Just some thoughts on why your team is simming well or poorly.

not bad i like that my team is starting to build an identity. im not a fan of someone losing there job due to injury but KiKi has played his way into the starting lineup. and has become a huge commodity.

Warrick works well off the bench though, since he is a bit of a tweener. Team is playing pretty well. Do you risk dealing Warrick and Brown for a better 4? Or do you go with whats working now? Tough choice.

My team seems to have a new leader every night. On some night, Griffith and Washington don't put up the point, while there's been a couple games where each went for over 25. Donaldson had a great sim, up near 16 and 11. Rahim did too. I'm really liking Rahim/Gooden at the 4 for this year. It's early, but I did beat the Sonics and Jazz. I'm indifferent, though; I'll take a good season, or I'll take a great pick.

I love Donaldson/Griffith/Washigton as a base for you. I really think they bring alot of good qualities to the table, which is ideal for building a team.

Donaldson could be a 18 and 10 guys, which is great for a C.

Griffith will be an All-Star eventually.

Washington is gonna be a very good scoring point guard, or a great combo guard off the bench.

I've got a chance to get hot now too. I play tons of winnable games over the next 10, and I only face two teams of .500

Severe depression, wow. That's rough for the Spurs.

[gdftony]

5-5 not bad, im very impressed with Rodriguez, hopefully he can keep out dishing those assists!

[djmyte]

Severe depression....ha. Chauncey can't handle the rebuilding situation.

[kingjamez]

Cant win without defense...
