SSBA

tried another lineup and this time i found something. beat hornets, pistons, celtics (please can we play them every sim  :lol:), lost a a close one to the nets. delk surprised me with his scoring ability.

114ppg in 3 home games (against teams giving up 98ppg on avg, including Hornets)
87ppg in 4 road games (against teams giving up 100ppg on avg)

I have no clue about my team.

Tom shouldn't have pissed of Magliore in the off-season, he is playing some of the best ball of his life. MJ on the other hand has been something of a disappointment (you know, in a relative sense). Mucked around with the DC some, and turns out my bigs are pretty interchangeable), which is good news.

Nice 4-1 sim (though not the toughest sched ever), three straight road wins, and some distancing from the others in the Atlantic. All on the eve of MRobs arrival, which will only make the Nets deeper. Clearly not a team constructed to butt heads with the elite, but pointing in the right direction.

Tom shouldn't have pissed off Nique either! 16-28 for 41 points.

Wow, watch out for the SAS.

5-1 sim still keeping us very much in the hunt for the division and conference, only a half game behind the Spurs and 1.5 up on Golden State. If healthy, I really like my chances in a 7 game series against anyone.

two seasons ago Mags was a lousy PG for the Suns. Well, 17/11 isn't lousy exactly but he was nowhere his ratings. Turnover prone, not really great defensively, and not exactly a leader. But he also was probably the best player on the team and carrying much responsibility.

Last season he came along nicely as SG, backup PG for the Nets.

That he is playing such a phenomenal season so far, finally up to his (always good) ratings, has probably more to do with a lot less burden offensively and the his primary duty to get the ball to MJ and Danny. Too bad he was still too young when he was a Celtic.


Well, little Clarky go his feet wet here, and he paid dearly. Rightfully so, you don't mess with the best team in the league. Thats why I got him the starting nod over Peters (who would have been embarrassed by Nique as well)

You learn from such stuff and move on.

And I think Embry never really wanted to play your 2nd team, I always tell him the only way to get better is playing the best and studying them ...

Most surprised with my team defense right now...

+2.2 rpg differential...  Pretty good, but it could improve.
Leading the league in spg with 12.2, and with a +1.6 differential.
Leading the league with 17.1 otopg, with a +1.2 differential.

2nd to the Hornets in defending the 3 pt line, allowing only 32% shooting.
5th in shooting percentage giving up 42.9% shooting.
Taking about 3 more shots then my opponents, and sinking them at a better rate.

Hopefully Jerod White willl reduce the team's to's.  My previous back-up PG, Dennis Kelly, had 2.1 topg in only 13 mpg.  Jerod, in 13 mpg this last sim, had only 0.2 topg.

Damn, i just cant figure it out. If Hakeem was still here this would be a very potent team, like this is up and down.

some much needed changes for the Hawks...we have to surround Hakeem with some more talent.  He is often the only guy in double figures.  He's been incredible, with 2 or 3 more additions we will be set to make a run, hopefully.

.417 FG% will not get it done. :bash:

Rice is clearly upset about his role on your team with the addition of Hakeem, not to mention your fascination with him. 57 days of depression is a pretty serious case. Tough break.
