SSBA

Its been a while since my team is playing this well. Nance, Barner, Short and Aguirre are providing the scoring and the rebounding my team lacked during the preseason and the 1st sim. Bolinger missed 2 points to complete another triple double with 8pts 10rebs and 12assists.

I hope they can continue their effort. I think Im also going to tweak Dr.J's position, he seems to be struggling this year at the SF position. We might see him play the PG/SG position.

well, dwight had the best game of his career. 32 points, 17 rebounds and 10 blocks. after that it was disappointing. to see my team haven't improved on a won against the cavs :(

don't you think the game where he almost singlehandingly outscored the opponent warrants mentioning?

Dwight: 56pt, 15reb, 3stl, 3blk, 0 to
Hornets: 62pt, 48reb, 6stl, 3blk, 20 to

 :cheers:

somehow missed that. yikes.

doesn't warrant any mention though coz the hornets ain't like the great wall anymore.

I'm completely stunned at my teams effort (or lack thereof)

in games 1 and 2 this sim Celts scored 133ppg on 56% shooting
in games 3,4,5,6,7 this sim Celts scored 86ppg on 35% shooting (never eclipsing 37% during the "run" !!!)
  :bash:

(I mean you can lose to the Jazz, Mavs and Wolves, but you shouldn't at home. And you sure should not lose to the Bucks and Raptors if you're serious about the postseason)

a loss in game 8 to the Blazers dropped my streak to "Lost6 and counting"
(Tyler fouled out in 23 minutes to a C offense/B- defense stiff called Philip Rubini here !!!)


No injuries, so i'm completely clueless what caused this sudden collapse ...
 :?:

Off course, the minute i traded my picks, all that teams start to suck suck suck. Had i kept those picks, they'd have been at the top of their division, no doubt.

damn you beat me...
4 potential lotto picks for a guy like chambers...
of course you could have waited till deadline before you did such a horrible trade.

Isiah is completely insane.

42pts, 11as, 5rebs vs the Suns
27pts, 6rebs, 6as vs the Wolves
30pts, 5rebs, 10as vs the Jazz
23pts, 7as, 5rebs vs the Blazers

Current average of 25ppg, 5rpg, 9apg, 48% from the floor. That has to be one of the greatest rookie numbers in SSBA history.

Magic also picked up his game; 23ppg, 7as, 4rpg, 2spg, almost 50% from the floor.

Those 2 combine for 48ppg, 16apg and almost 10rpg.

Nah, i don't think so. It's still to early to tell. Some of those teams (like Celtics, Bucks or even myself) would go up in the standings probably.


Here's the thing, i need size, someone down low. And there're no one in the next year draft that fits that description. Worthy, Wilkins, Cummings, all wing players. I belive Chambers is going to be a heckava offensive weapon inside, for years to come. After that, all i need is shotblocker at 5, and i'm set.

agree. one shot blocker at the 5 and you would get damn close to making the playoffs. exciting ...

Not so exciting as advancing to the second round of the playoffs only once in your lifetime.

offense is doing better than expected with marion leading the way with 21pts and shooting over 50%
and scott is really a nice find in FA with 11pts 5 rebs and 10ass
if i could defend inside better i should win more games.
sad to see that lenard is underachieving this year. bastard should have taken my offer  :bash:

3-4, I've been happier, but I just want to make the playoffs this year since I dont have my own pick.

Buck Williams (20/13) is easily the ROY if not for Isaiah.

Well, I expected to be terrible this year, but the Warriors are currently hanging close to .500...
Dennis Mangrum might be the best min salary player ever.
19 ppg, 5 rpg, 10 apg, 2.5 tpg with 1.8 spg with good shooting (except for his free throw shooting)
Impressed with this squad so far...

Ditto..

A good start to the season for the Rockets.

We are at 9-4, although that still puts us 4th in the division!

We have been getting a lot of different looks offensively and 6 players have registered 10ppg or more through the first 2 sims.

Some promising statistics:
PPG - 2nd in the league with 109.7
RPG - 8th in the league with 53.7
APG - 4th in the league with 26.1
FGPG - 2nd in the league with 41.6
FG% - 4th in the league with 46%
FT% - 2nd in the league with 76.5%
3PPG - 1st in the league with 7.7
3P% - 8th in the league with 40.5%
oBPG - 1st in the league with 4.1
o3P% - 4th in the league with 33.1%

With virtually all my players expiring this year I think this may be my last push before a rebuild...

yeah, rightfully so you stir in my wounds.
I was too conservative for too long I suppose.

My team would be 10-6 if we won all of the close games...

If that comes down to a fight between the Hornets and Raptors for the #1 pick, I might cry.


Man Max struggles without anything in terms of teammates...I feel bad for the guy.

14-3 start, 1st in the West by 2.5 games.

Same old story in Minnesota... Gatling leads the way, taking and making a lot of shots.  KG is still going strong at age 40, and Cheeks, Fleisher and Vice each bring something different to the starting lineup which makes for a winning formula.  My bench has significantly improved over last year as well with Gooden contributing 10 RPG off the bench and Paxson shooting 56% on the year so far. 

Hopefully I won't regret messing with a winning team when my trade for Swift goes through...
