Sim 3 Preview/Discussion

[RaptorsGM]

Can't wait..been studying political science all day, and I will need the break by sim time.

I have 8 games, 5 on the road. Anything less than 5-3 will be a dissapointment.

[HornetsGM]

I have 7 games. I predict 5-2. That would put me at 11-3.

[RaptorsGM]

Any idea what time, Bods?

[BlazersGM]

i wonder also, would be happy with 50 % sim  

[NetsGM]

Sim up.

lol, ok

[NetsGM]

Nice.  Went 7-1.  Only loss being a split with the Celtics.

Not nice: after going on a bad losing streak, the 76ers won 3 in a row.  There are now 5 teams better than them.

[NetsGM]

Dalembert went down (for two games), and Brad Miller stepped up with an 18/13/2 block game and an 18/16/6 assist game.  Then Nesterovich went down and Jamison got more playing time, dropping 6/11 in 24 minutes his first game, then 11 pts, 11 again, 7/7, a 10 rebound game, and another 11 pt game.  All playing around 20 mpg.  Depth is nice

Top 4 rebounders (individual players):
Nets

top 4 blocks per game:

lol.

[HornetsGM]

I have 7 games. I predict 5-2. That would put me at 11-3.

11-3

My points for/against differential increased to +14, currently the best in the league. I think it's probably due to playing some weaker teams in that last run though. Still too early to tell how well my team is gonna do, but I am feeling pretty confident at this point. Odom picked up his scoring, and I am pleased with that too.

Marion is averaging 10.5 rpg at shooting guard  

[WolvesGM]

Finally! A sim that had more than 1 win. Moved SAR to the starting line up and boy has he been a difference maker. 36 against the magics, 27 against the Nets, then 26, 38 and 27.
Had a 4-4 sim that took me to 6-15.... I honestly do not know why my team is doing so bad. I thought I had a good team on paper. Defense was mediocre but I thought I'd atleast near .500. Instead, im doing horribly!
What is WRong?!

[RaptorsGM]

Wow, Raptors, what the fuck happened?

I don't get it at all. Looked great the last sim, and shit a brick this sim.

Could be time for a big change.

All players sucked this sim, period.

[BucksGM]

5 games on the road against decent teams, so the 2-4 sim was acceptable to me.  Okur sure was in foul trouble a ton, now averaging 4 fouls per game.  At least I've got the leaders near the top of Fouls Per Game and Turnovers Per Game

[SixersGM]

Nice sim for me. My team 4-4. and 3-1 with curry on my team.
