Sim 7 Disccusion

[KingsGM-old]

Curently riding on a 3 game winning streak. I'm positive i can go on with it but i'm facing probably the sickest schedule at this momment;

                61    Kings @ Heat
      62    Kings @ Cavs
       63    Grizzlies @ Kings
      64    Kings @ Lakers
      65    Kings @ Mavericks
       66    Nuggets @ Kings
      67    Trailblazers @ Kings
      68    Jazz @ Kings
       69    Nuggets @ Kings
      70    Wizards @ Kings

 No rest at all . 10 games in 10 days. Everything under 6 - 4 should be a dissapointment. I just hope no one gets injured and i'll be fine.

An experimental sim for me...
6 games, 5 on the road... Tough sim...
Turkoglu is injured for three games, so I have decided to give Cardinal the starts this sim.
In 3 starts this season, the Warriors are 2-1, and he averages about 14 ppg and 8 rpg from the SF spot, and shoots great percentages.

Also, Bellamy will now be my primary back-up at PG and SG over Jaric.  This sim is all about improving my offense.

4-2 sim would be great, 3-3 would be OK with me...

[OldNuggetsGM]

Holy crap!  I just looked at my schedule, and after having days 61 and 62 off, I have 8 straight road games.  

63 Nuggets @ Pistons
64 Nuggets @ Jazz
65 Nuggets @ Trailblazers
66 Nuggets @ Kings
67 Nuggets @ Wizards
68 Nuggets @ Trailblazers
69 Nuggets @ Kings
70 Nuggets @ Cavs

Here's hoping for a 4-4 sim.  Days 66-68 are killer.  Fly from Sacramento to DC back to Portland with no travel days.  Good thing there's no jet lag component to the sim.

[NetsGM]

well that sucked.

After winning 10 of 12 heading into the break, I went 1-6, with a 6 game losing streak.

 

I'll look at it more later.  leaving to catch my train.  some player pages aren't yet updated.

[CavsGM]

What a terrible sim. 2-7. Well, this team won't be around for long...

[CavsGM]

And my two wins come against NJ and Toronto. Hilarious. Odom goes off for 52 against the Nets...

[BullsGM-old]

2-1 this sim, 7-3 in my last 10.  My team is finally picking up steam and playing to their potential, now that they're healthy.  But man, I gotta stop losing to the Knicks..

[BullsGM-old]

Although I've done well over the last few sims, it's apparent that Griffin and Anderson each play better at C and PF respectively.  It's weird because Griffin plays better at SF than he does at PF

[KingsGM-old]

Just WOW! Went 8 - 2. This team is red hot. Had 7 game winning streak also.

Brad Miller and Marbury are just playing beatifull basketball at this momment. Steph is passing machine and the guy doesn't know what's TO. One of the best PG in the league at this moment IMO.

Jerome Moiso and Luisseti are just great backups. I really like them both. Moiso can rebound like mad and Loisetti is doign little bit of everything.


3rd place in the West and as of right now one of the best rebounding teams in the league.

Bad news? Off course, something has to fuck me up...as always; Jerome James is out for 12 days     . That will probably crush any hopes of mine to catch the Clips and to take that 1st in the West.

[BucksGM]

Well the Bucks went 5-0, including road wins over the Wolves and Nets, and a nice victory at home over the Raptors.  

24-24, back at 500 for the first time since 0-0.  7th seed currently, team playing incredibly.  Tinsley triple double on the Nets.  And the Cavs pick just got a whole lot better.

Like Ice Cube would say, today was a good day.

[GoldenStateGM]

Went 4-2 with 5 games on the road.
The Brian Cardinal and Bellamy experiment was a success, I think.  But Cardinal is incredible for a non-option...

13 pts and 9 rpg as a non-option.
Bellamy did well, shot 50% with 3 rpg and 3 apg in 19 mpg...  Very close to Jaric.

Happy with this sim, I think the Cardinal experiment will continue on...

[NetsGM]

Well, this makes a *bit* more sense.  Not much, but a bit.

quickly looking at the stats, I held teams to decent shooting percentages.  For the 7 games, opponents shot 41% against me, 37% from downtown.  So why did they score so much?

First, rebounding.  When Okafor was in the lineup I was +6 on the boards this year.  This sim?  -5.  Huh?  Well, Okafor fouled out of 4 out of 7 games.  Huh?  This is a guy who only averages a little over 2.5 fouls per game for the year.  Fouls out against the Celtics in 12 minutes.  Against the Magic in 18 minutes.  Those 2 games I get outrebounded by a combined 22 boards.

Outside of that, turnovers.  17.8 per game is unacceptable.

Offensively I was fine.  99.5 ppg, 40% from 3 pt range.  Pettit struggled a bit (28 ppg, but shot 39.4%, 33.3% from 3 pt range).  Billups put in his typical 21/8.3 with great percentages (47%, 48% from 3 pt).  Dalembert with 12 rebs and 4.7 blocks.  Okafor with 20.8 ppg, 11.4 rpg, 2.3 bpg in limited minutes.  No position really killed me defensively, it was mainly turnovers and rebounds.  

Very, very disappointing sim.

[JazzGM-old]

6-2 sim and lost to the Raptors and Nets. Shabinger almost had triple doubles on two more occasions, just missing it both times by an assist, Booth also almost had a triple double and tallied up a career high 9 blocks and in another game tallied up 18 points, 22 rebounds, along 4 blocks and a steal. Shabinger is going to stay in the starting lineup for now as his TOpg has been relatively moderate. This last sim Shabinger's stats were 14.5 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 6.75 apg, 1.5 spg, 0.25 bpg, 2.88 topg

[HawksGM]

0-8 sim and I'm riding a 12 game losing streak.  It's time to blow up everyone's on the block.  Iggy played well for me this sim, but everyone else did horrible.

[MagicGM]

my team went 4-2.

Kidd has a triple double performance.. he almost had another one.. just a rebound shy of 2 triple doubles this sim..

Woods had a great sim 13pts 16rebounds
