Sim 11 Discussion

[NetsGM]

Up.

[RaptorsGM]

Decent 5-2 sim. Hunter still scoring at a 20ppg clip, and his averages are now 56% FG, 91.4% FT, 44.4% 3PT.

Now just 1 game back of the Hornets for the 2nd overall spot, and more importantly, 3.5 games up on the Magic for homecourt advantage.

Raptors 98 Hawks 93 -- Max had 24 on 10-18 shooting to lead the way. Melo added 23, and Hunter had 18 on 6-10 shooting. Swift added 13 points and 17 rebounds, while Gasol had 12, 11 and 6. Phelps had 21 and 11 against Hunter.

Raptors 98 Sixers 96 -- Overtime win. Hunter scored 26 on 10-18 shooting to lead the way, but my other top scorers dissapeared. Swift, Melo and Gasol all had dub-dubs (Swift with 17 and 12, Melo with 17 and 11, Gasol with 13 and 10). Chills shot just 2-10 off the bench which hurt, but I'll take the win.

Pacers 113 Raptors 86 -- Here's a team I hope I don't have to face in the playoffs. Marion dropped 29 on Hunter, but didn't shoot over 50%. Hunter fired back with 19 on 7-11 shooting, which is amazing considering who he was facing. Really happy that this kid is playing so well. Gasol added 14 and 13.

Bulls 94 Raptors 92 -- Ouch. Tough, tough loss after being tied going into the 4th Q. Gasol scored 31 and 12 to equal out Amare's 30 and 10. Dorell Wright exploded on Hunter, going for 21 and 9. Hunter had 13 in the loss. Melo added 22 and 7.

Raptors 96 Pistons 82 -- Some great numbers all around, led by Gasol's 23 and 12. Melo adds 20, and Max again JUST misses the trip-dub with 18 pts, 11 rebs and 9 asts. Hunter adds 17 in only 18 minutes. Schenk came off the bench and was 5-5 for 11 points in ONLY SEVEN MINUTES. wow.

Raptors 94 Sixers 81 -- Not so close this time. Melo leads the way with 24, and Hunter adds 19. Max had 15 pts and 12 assts, while Swift had a dub-dub with 14 and 14. Gasol added 12 pts and 19 rebounds in the victory.

Raptors 91 Jazz 86 -- Melo scored 25 on only 13 shots to lead the way. Off the bench, Childress had 17 to help out. Gasol had 16 and 11, Swift had 12 and 18, and Max had 10 pts and 10 assists. Hunter struggled going 4-16 from the floor.

Overall, I'm quite happy with this team. Since I face the Nets twice in the upcoming sim, and I need to see if I have what it takes to stay with them this year, I'm going to move Chills back into starting SG and make Melo the #1 option again, like the way things used to be. I think that gives me a better chance to beat the Nets, and we'll see what direction I want to go when we get into the playoffs.

[HeatGM]

a bad sim 3-6 sim but khoury was out and the DC was computer recommended mode... i hope next sim would show wat this team is capable...im already in the playoffs...almost 90% sure il be in the playoffs...

[PacersGM]

can someone tell me how the kings played without any PF after their first game? As i understand it position is shown where he entered first the game... so someone must have startet at PF or am i worng?

[PacersGM]

3-1

i think i am getting in PO form  

Pacers 87 BUCKS 93 horrible loss only boozer with 20points 15rebounds 5steals and 2blocks and JO with 30points 13rebounds and 5blocks played well.
PACERS 111 Jazz 91 wow a blowout win against one of the better defense teams. had 5 guys in double digits with JO (33/8/6 and 2blks) and Rocky (22/7/6 with 3 steals) leading.
Pacers 113 RAPTORS 86 yea this is a team i would like to face in the second round   i won this game despite JO only playing 17 mins (still managed 15/6/4) because of great bench play. Allen had 14points and Q 10points both in 13mins; boozer again with a very solid performance 17/12/4 my passing was incredible - my PGs didn´t commit 1 TO overall 29 assists and only 6 TOs
Pacers 123 KINGS 86 lol what a blowout and their DC was a mess. After 3 quaters i had already 106points. JO with 30/8/3; Marion had 27/6/2; boozer again player of the game with 21/19 and 4 steals and Artest with 17/5/5 again with a fantastic passing performance by rocky with 15 assist and only 2 TOs.

so.. will the trades (didn't work trades) still be processed? especially since they were posted before the deadline and wasn't able to had it overhaul since I was at school

Not possible, we are past the trading deadline already. FBB doesn't allow it anymore.

Guys, use trade checker, learn the rules or ask somebody who knows (and cares) ...
 

[ClippersGM-old]

Damnit, forgot to login and post my DC. Now I played with Luckett as starting pg and Chandler was on the bench. :s
Oh well, I went 1 - 2 against the Warriors in this sim. All very close games. That gives me a good feeling for when I will play with my stronger lineup!

[CelticsGM]

6-1 sim. Nice. Only a 3pt road loss to the Nets (at full strength this time) but valueable wins over mostly non-playoff teams (who i lost to earlier this season).

Chauncey was great and Thomas blocked like a man possessed. Even Redd contributed nicely. Guess they realize they are playing for future contracts now ...  


I slipped by the Heat and hold the 6th spot now. Wizards and Celtics will devide 6th and 7th seed between them and meet Hornets/Raptors. The way Celts are playing currently I love either matchup.
 

[CelticsGM]

First look at the MEGA BLOCKBUSTER OF ALL TRADES (courtesy of Ivan):

It took TD just ONE GAME to go down for the sim, and give the Kings a glimpse of things to come (like a 38pt home loss to Pacers and a narrow win over dirk-less Warriors). Going 3-0 even without TD against non-playoff teams at home is hardly impressive ...

Blazers (went 3-5) are completely defenseless in the backcourt now. Some highlights:
- Spurs shot 21-34 (starters 16-24) vs Blazers in a 2pt Spurs win at Portland.
- Knicks 26-47 in a 23pt win
- Mavs 35-67 in a 12pt Mavs win
- Kings starters 28-54 in a 22pt win
- Suns 29-49 in a 1pt BLAZERS WIN !
- Heat 32-60 in a BLAZERS OT win !!
And then they conmpletely killed the Warriors backcourt in Dirk's return game. Makes you wonder ...

And Heat are losing a lot too (just 3-6 this sim), but at least their part of the deal was about the future ...


Early winner of the deal: ALL OTHER TEAMS *lol*
     

[KingsGM-old]

I wonder will you ever stop with your nonsense posts.

Yeah, i did so bad that i went 5-1 and also beat the Wariorrs in the process.

In case you didn't notice, Andre Igoudala (without whom i wouldn't be doing the trade cause i insisted on him in our 3 way deal) is playing like a All Star and was my second best player behind Mcgrady:
15pts, 7rebs, 3as vs the Lakers
30pts vs the Blazers
23pts, 8as, 12rebs vs the Rockets
23pts, 6rebs, 6asists vs the Warriors
22pts, 10rebs, 4as vs the Sonics

Tim Duncan? It was something i was fully expecting. I knew he won't make a full season without injurie, i traded for him for the playoffs ONLY.

Played only one game this sim against the Lakers; 31pts, 5blocks, 3steals,  18rebs...pretty bad, ha?


p.s. Bods, can you tell me why Camby didn't play this sim? He was injuried but was expected to be back in the middle of the sim. He was my first PF/C backup on the DC.

[PacersGM]

yea it looks like the monster trade left a mess to all teams.
but heat played with anglin at pg and litwack at Pf and JRich was at sg and ...
not a lineup i think can win more than 500
blazers chart was also horrible they played without a big guy at C
and the kings even played without any PF listed in the lineup... lol

[PacersGM]

p.s. Bods, can you tell me why Camby didn't play this sim? He was injuried but was expected to be back in the middle of the sim. He was my first PF/C backup on the DC.

maybe he was that mistery Pf who never showed up at the depth chart  

[KingsGM-old]

I suppose so...

[CelticsGM]

I wonder will you ever stop with your nonsense posts.

Not as long as you constantly supply me with new  ammunition ...  

Yeah, i did so bad that i went 5-1 and also beat the Wariorrs in the process.

Congratulations !!! I'm sure they are scared like hell now ...

23pts, 8as, 12rebs vs the Rockets
23pts, 6rebs, 6asists vs the Warriors
22pts, 10rebs, 4as vs the Sonics

Such foresight is what seperates the cream of the crop from the simple good GMs. And your team loves you for that, as without Iggy TMac would have to play 96 minutes each game ...

Not bad at all, these are big time numbers. Hope he reaches them in all three games he'll lace them up for you ...

p.s. Bods, can you tell me why Camby didn't play this sim? He was injuried but was expected to be back in the middle of the sim. He was my first PF/C backup on the DC.

Most likely he injured his shooting hand during the TD introduction ceremony shaking hands with the big star ...
