Looks pretty ugly for the nets...

At least I think.  I had to do this pretty quickly to leave for work on time.

[RaptorsGM]

Raptors had a decent training camp...no big losses, which in my mind means a good TC.

Robert Swift - Now an A+ defender. Very, very happy to have him as my starter.

Johnny Duncan - Stayed the same. That's cool.

Leocadio Garcia - Improved to a B+ defender...was always hoping to see more of an improvement from him before he fell to C potential...but he is 25 now.

Matej Klima - Lost a handle. Like he needed to get any worse.

George Boykins - Lost a handle, lost a rebound, but gained a potential. The handling is probably the least worrisome thing for a big man (especially one not very prone to turnovers), and I can survive a dip in rebounding with Swift in the frontcourt.

Billy Joe Kim - Did nothing but lose a potential. Was hoping to see some improvement from him or Duncan.

Luke Jackson - Gained a potential, everything else stayed the same, which is perfectly ok by me.

Roberto Dickau - Gained a defense. Can't believe this young man can't find a home somewhere else...he stays rooted to my bench, yet would be a 15-17ppg scorer with good handles and defense for another team. Also a very good rebounder for his position.

Josh Childress - Does nothing, which is fine by me. Look for the Raptors to have 2 all-league defenders on their team this year with Swift and Chills.

Micah Hunter - God Damn Micah, why do you have to do this to me? Micah becomes a B+/B- offensive player...likely good enough to score 20 if I have the balls to start him...which I think I do.

Xavier Doby - Rookie #1....Gains an outside shot and a rebounding but loses a potential...just good enough to stay rooted to the bench for an entire 4 year contract.

Max - This was bound to happen. After improving every TC, Max finally takes a break and shows no improvement....but the more important thing is no losses expect for potential. Great TC for Max in that he is still the 16 and 10 PG I want.

Dench - Improvement in rebounding (1), loss of potential. Will stay on the bench.

Julian Brown -- Rookie #2...Shows that his true potential is not what I hoped it would be, just a C. And doesn't improve at all.

[RaptorsGM]

Looking around the league...

Good TC for Trump of the Celtics.

Khoury of the Heat also has a good one, and Keogan becomes even more of a one-dimensional player.

The Nets complain before the leave, but Lincoln Lord becomes the best PG in the league.

The Knicks have an un-needed, terrible TC, but Marquez shows ROTY potential.

Gotta like the Wiz backcourt now.

The Hawks finally have a good offseason as Wade becomes a #1 option and Phelps and Wooden look good.

Radman, Swift and Livingston all show slight declines, making the Hornets prehaps slightly more vulnerable.

Palacio explodes for the Cavs.

Artest of the Pacers has a poor TC.

Rex Mehta of the Bucks looks like a future All-Star.

O'Connell continues to improve,

KG takes a big hit ratings wise, totally expected for a 36 year old. Wolves look like they will struggle this year.

Jamal Sampson...why did I ever let him get away? JDN..who the hell decided he was worth that kind of money?

Poor TC for the Jazz, will struggle to make playoffs.

Poor TC for the Warriors, as if they needed that...they might as struggle to make the playoffs a year after their Championship.

Thankfully Mike Redd takes a big dump in ratings, showing that the Clipps didn't get a major steal with the MLE.

After YEARS of collecting top 3 picks, the Lakers may FINALLY be ready for a playoff run.

Richard Roan also improves...could put up 25 this year.

As expected, pretty much every member of the Kings decides to sit out TC.

[CavsGM]

For the Cavs there were some ups, some downs, but more ups then downs so it was definitely a good TC overall...

Notes
- Palacio looks amazing. He went up 4 and is sure to have the starting spot, but there will be some competition. B-, A-, B+, B+ is real good.
- Strait, oh Strait, oh Strait. I had big hopes for him, but down 3?!? I was excpecting the opposite. It's not the end of the world though, as he kept his B potential and should still be able to put up 15 and 9 this season.
- Manning improved his defense, exactly what I needed.
- Following a disappointing season, Adams improved nicely to look like a very good player right now.
- Sylvester now has B+ rebounding, which is crazy for a SF. Still no offense, but his ratings across are pretty sick. What player has had his combination of handles and rebounding?
- Fisher is looking awesome. Am I glad I signed him.
- My rookies, O'neil and Lundy, disappointed big time, doing pretty much nothing. They both kept their B potential, however.

[SixersGM]

My rookie, goudin, the one my brother picked for me, got a bad TC. Tyler stayed the same.. Fuqua did have the best improvement among my roster. And the rest... im too tired to list it here.. Its already early morning here,, hehe

[PacersGM]

nothing special for the pacers most of my players stayed the same.
tanner lost 1 in handles and outside shot
harpring no change
JO no change
Priddy lost 1 handles, defense
Caroll gain 1 outside and rebound
diorio gain 1 inside
artest lost 1 inside, outside and defense
Lenard gain 1 rebound
harris gain 1 outside and defense
austin, sapp no change
delong +1 handles -1 defense
english -1 def
elliot +1 handles -1 inside
mercer +1 handles
overall -1  

[GrizzliesGM]

My tc was alright I guess. Nothing special.

Robertson-no changes
Randolph-no changes
Mihm-no changes (yay)

Lewis-lost 1 handle, 1 defense but gained 1 potential so i think he has a few more years at the same ratings which is pretty good

Martin-gained 1 handle and lost nothing which is great for his age

Williams-lost 2 defense and is now my backup

Bailey Snow-Turned out to be a great fa pickup and is now my starting pg. He gained 1 outside, and gained 1 potential

[KingsGM-old]

Lol, i had no idea there was TC until i haven't looked my roster.

Wow! I'll actually compete!

Tmac back to A- defense, rest of the offense stayed the same. Another great for him is coming.

Mike Bibby, I'm satisfied. He's pretty much the same.

Gasol lost on rebounding, hm...but ok.

Dirk is now A- defense. Oh well, outscoring is my game anyway.

Booth...damn you.

Marbury, wow, i didn't expect such a huge fall. You bastard.

Pietrus improven on defense.

....And....Ronald Talbott!! 6th pick of the second round (!!) is now A- handles and A- outside! I can't belive.

[KingsGM-old]

Geez...West just plain out sucks! The worst year from ssba day 1. What a mockery.

[ClippersGM-old]

Looking around the league...
Thankfully Mike Redd takes a big dump in ratings, showing that the Clipps didn't get a major steal with the MLE.

I don't know. Redd will still be a good backup. But that is not the major issue... what is more important is that you missed Maggette's improvement after I offered him a very nice 2 year extension. His 18 ppg scoring gained 2 ratings!
Also Chandler and Brand improved. Gordon gained potential.
I am very happy with this TC! Good one for the Clippers!

[MavsGM]

It was an OK TC for the Mavs.  Our big guys did bad but LeBron and Melo both gain outside touch.

[Iverson2Korver43]

The Pistons FINALLY had a decent TC with an overall +2...

Steven Schmatlz:  +1 Inside, +1 Rebounding, -1 Handles...  His rating are definately coming around and should be a 25 and 10 center...

Eddy Curry:  -1 inside, but +1 Defense and +1 Rebounding...

Kenneth Rivera: +1 Handles and -1 Defense...  Not what I wanted to see...

Patrick Kent:  -1 Inside, +1 Defense...  Still has "A" potential...

Brian Cook:  Injured List for him...

Blake Monroe:  -1 inside, +1 Handles and +1 Rebounding...

Vince Carter:  STAYED THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richard Jefferson:  -1 Handles and -1 Defense...

Jarvis Hayes:  +1 Handles...

Antonio Turkoglu:  +1 Inside...

Hunter Summitt:  -1 Outside...

Oscar Jeannette:  SAME...

Caron Butler:  -1 Inside...

Alvin Scheck:  +1 Outside and +1 Defense...  Very Happy with this one...

Jason Terry:  -1 Handles...

Overall I am happy with this TC, and hope to prove the skeptics wrong by making the play-offs...

[HawksGM]

The Hawks cap off a good off-season with a decent TC.  Dwayne Wade looks to be in his prime and a good scorer now to go along with his excellent defense.  Phelps improved his handles and will be a good #2 option.  James Fisher improved 1 in handles, will be a good backup behind Wooden who improved is outside and handles.  Diop led the dissapointments with a decrease in both defense and rebounding.  Curtis Davis and Sandy Watson, my first round picks, both stayed the same again.  All in all I'm pleased with my off-season but am still a long ways from the playoffs.

[KingsGM-old]

Ronald Talbott!!!!!
