Trade deadline next sim.

Very interesting 4-5 sim for the Raptors after some radical DC changes (McCormick to bench, pace to very fast, always trapping/pressing, inside focus). Improved significantly in terms of simly winning %, but moved up in the "other" standings, sitting in 3rd-worst. I just want a top 5 pick.

Incredible amount of wins for a sim with this many turnovers...we averaged 22 turnovers a game!!

So that's it for the Celtics playoff hopes.

(expected) losses to the Pacers, Cavs, Rockets, and Hornets (after we won in N'awlkins last sim the rematch was a good on too, as we led them by 4 into the final quarter before going down) as well as an uncessary loss to the Wizards.

Won another good game in Atlanta to the improved Hawks (Timmy went off, but since Derek Harper got injured early this comes with an asterisk), so at least there's hope for the coming seasons ...



Right now i'm pretty torn if i made the right thing trading for Hardaway.

Sure he has all the tools to be a stud for the next 10 years. But my pick could easily end up in the top 3 this year after we have to finish the season playing 7 of the remaining 10 games on the road. And if Gatling should drop to the Nets I made a pretty poor trade by all accounts. Hmmm ...

Not too much to say about a 1-1 sim - players still getting used to one another and all that, too much change to the lineup to think things would be  entirely smooth - but still liking the way things are looking.

Loving the PG ball control - didn't exactly control the flow of the game or anything - but just 2 to's to 17 assists between the two of them. Karl Malone has been "meh", but is strong on the boards and puts up a fair share of points. Byron keeps putting up great numbers, and my young bigs are playing efficiently enough.

Still having problems on the offensive end. I wish I still had Evan Rossow..  :(
