Days 1-10

Ive decided to wait till tomorrow.


















































Just kidding, coming up right now

[Mr Mojo Risin]

that wasnt funny you nearly killed this poor pig

[Basone's Blazers]

haha

[Lakers GM]

4-3, seen my box scores but gotta check it out some more. Couple observations: I really struggled with foul trouble, had a new top scorer every night it seemed, and Mike Mercer might not be ready to be the first option.

On the other hand, Wade is a damn stud, and no one wants to offer anything for him!

7-3 baby! KG is back. Bird and Wade are awesome. Eaton is sending shots back as I type.

[HeatGM]

my team sucks...

[Lakers GM]

Spence, if you want me to have Wade so bad, I'll take him.

4-3 is a good first sim. Its hard at first to see how a team will sim. To be over .500 is good IMO. Now you can tweak some stuff and get better.

You lost your chance!

[Basone's Blazers]

shit, 0-5...wtf.

0-7 eat it.

Looks like you need to slow down your pace a bit. You just had a bad sim, no way Rush shoots that poorly all year.

Chris wants Clyde the Glide!

[Lakers GM]

Aldridge really looks improved. Some bad games, but he rebounded like a beast and his fg& is way up from the past. 14 and 14 from him, 13 and 12 from Laimbeer. I'm really comfortable with having them as nonoptions, since I don't want big numbers from them if it means they dominate shots.

We're second in the league in threes attempted per game, and about 10th in percentage. I'm going to keep the focus outside for a bit.

Mercer's putting up about 22, 5, 5 on low fg%. But he's 40% from three, so he's scoring.

Steele put up 18 and 7 with 45% from three. I'm going to see about starting Gibson for the next 5 days.

Some real solid defense, too. Top 13 in a bunch of cats, and we're holding opponents to 104 ppg, something like 10th best.

4-3 start, overall pretty happy about that. The win that stands out is over the Warriors, played a lot of teams at my level and otherwise went 3-3.

[Lakers GM]

TC and Moore for Wade? Deal.

[gdftony]

Cartwright was a beast 22 and 17 avg. He had one night of 32and 22 then the next night 22 and 27! I have 3 players averagin over 20 but i went 3-3, i might tweak somethings.

[krupimpski424]

4-3 after the first sim. Are we happy? No...but far from upset. We went 4-0 at home beating the bucks, magic, hornets, and the clippers. Shaq was a dominating force coming off the bench avg 11rpg. I think Hairston is moving back into the starting lineup as Smith took too many shots away from Kobe. Hopefully Shaq and Smith will both be eletric off the bench. We will tweak a bit and we feel we can beat anyone.

[gdftony]

i think my poor free throw shooting has contributed majorly to my losses.

[Wolves GM]

Defense has once again stepped to the front for us. We had a pretty shitty offensive sim except for Humphries and Zach.

[C.C.]

4-3 sim.

Won all home games including one on the road @ San Antonio. Green is averaging 23 and 8 and seems to be the only consistent starter in the lineup. Cummings, Artest, and Baron are playing very well, but their shot selections needs improvement, especially Bynum who is shooting below 30%. Kidd is doing very well off the bench, averaging near 10 PPG in 13 minutes and shooting above 60%. My team overall is averaging 110 PPG, but are also giving up near the same to opponents. 4-3 is a good record for now, but I need to tweak a few things for the next sim.

[Nathanjyd]

Im really happy....

Went 4-3 and my backcourt went crazy!

Darius Washington 26 6 and 9
Mark Aguirre 23 7 and 3

Dont know who to start Woolridge or Gray.

Aguirre put up 38 and 9 in his first game this season. Washington added 27 and 14 that game.

[Thunder]

Warriors sim 5-3. Ellis, Darko, and Wilkins seem to be stepping up, with a few games where all three are scoring. Exactly what this team needed. Around the big 3, Shakur is continuing his MVP play, Okafor has displayed a newfound offensive confidence, and supersubs Griffith and Kaun have shown little letdown when replacing starters. Excited to see more of this season.

[Thunder]

Wow, injuried to Kmart and Rondo... Midwest is opening up a bit, apparently to Minny's advantage.

[kjkeelty]

5-4 for the Pacers, which I guess isn't bad in the mighty Central Division. We're scoring 111 points per game. Trouble is, we're allowing 111 points per game. ;D

Here's the rundown

Great opening night win over Toronto 111-92
26-8-11 for Tmac, 21 rebs for McHale

Beat Hornets 124-112
Tmac 39-7-7 21-8-6blk for Elton

Loss to Hornets 114-99
Tmac was awful, looks like Livy abused him, revenge game I guess

Win over Knicks 119-112
Bobby Frasor huge game 18-9-9 filling in for foul prone Tmac

Loss to Sacto 121-109
21-15 for Elton

Loss to Milwaukee 110-92
21-6-8-3stl for Tmac but Milw defense too much, we shot 36%

Loss to 76ers 121-114
29-8-5-4 for Tmac

Win over Utah 130-116
Elton/Tmac/McHale/Higgins all with double doubles

Win over Wizards 107-103
25-10-7 for Tmac, Brand/McHale also with dub/dubs



Overall, pretty happy. I still would like to pick up a truer PG, and get Tmac back to his natural spot, we'll see what the market will yield. I'm also a bit concerned that McHale and brand weren't scoring more, considering they were the top 2 options. Tmac will be option 1 next sim, and look for Rip Hamilton to get more touches.

Have to be happy being over .500. Interior players are both throwing up big double doubles which is nice. You seem to be pretty deep at 1 and 2, maybe run a small lineup with Mercer at 3 and Gibson at 2? Just a thought.

Poor Buck, Ill take him off your hands if you arent using him.


Gotta start Yi at SF. Smith did nothing for ya

Frustrating that Smith has a bad sim. Hairston was great off the bench, maybe he can do that as a starter too.

JO, Herb and Shaq are pretty nasty inside.

[Mr Mojo Risin]

2-5 ok to begin with but now i know i dont have to go to the outside game plan to score

Some Key things I noted

Moncrief wasnt a huge contributor hopefully hell step it up in a more balanced offense

Brown had a quality sim looking for a bit more

Very Impressed with James Bailey right now those RC Points in rebounding really helped 13 RPG

CJ Miles didnt really contribute the way I wanted him to Offensively

Good defensive play just need a little more offense, will switch to a balanced attack for next sim

You have one of the only defensive oriented teams around.

No way Chalmers continues to play that poorly. No one played especially well, and you won. Kinda scary.
