A little boring. Team that does 3 of those 4 owes the other a lotto first within five seasons.

if they can't produce a lotto first then what?

then they owe their next 3 firsts

I like it..... start a new thread as a contract for this

1-1

We beat the Sixers however lost to the Mavericks. As it has been all season long, we are getting great production out of Carlos Boozer (22 and 9, 17 and 10) however inconsistant output from guys like Drew Gooden (14, 12 and 4, 4, 9 and 2), TJ Ford (6, 9 and 5, 2, 8 and 1) and Marquis Daniels (9, 4 and 4, 8, 7 and 4).

Meh.

A lot of chance in that and even if it does happen I don't think thats overtaking me.

I'm just excited for my roster to take shape. I have no expectation of landing Howard because it's complete luck in the lotto, but I have a top talent coming in soon, enough cap to throw around huge offers, and I'll have three firsts.

Its a lot of fun building your team up especially when you have a few picks in one draft to kind of shape and mold your franchise. Good free agency period too there could be a lot of fun signings.

1-3, but the three losses were all on the road to very good teams and I liked our performance. The fact that we're so close to the playoffs despite playing like absolute shit is puzzling man. But I don't want to break up a fairly young and promising core with picks and cap space to come if I can sneak into the playoffs this year and avoid the contract year. So I'm going to stick with this D/C because I liked how we played. Unfortunately the competition is still tough next sim, but we just need to play like .450 ball to get in the playoffs, so fingers crossed.

too many injuries...

This is exactly what I'm hoping for. Couple nice picks and one great FA signing and I'll be thrilled.

1-2 Will try and play Melo at SG to see if that changes anything.

No Zo...

1-0 Wolves, 106-100. Marion had 25pts, 15rebs, 3asts, 3blks. Boykins had 20pts, 3rebs, 8asts, 3stls. Redd had 17pts, 4rebs, 3stls.

1-1 Jazz, 84-85 Marion had 29pts, 10rebs, 4asts. Boykins had 19pts, 4asts, 2stls.

1-2 Heat, 86-107. Redd had 25 and 3. Marion had 20pts, 15rebs, 4asts. Boykins had 14pts, 4asts, 2stls. Wright had 5 and 10.

1-3 Knicks, 99-117. Marion had 22pts, 12rebs, 4blks. Lasege had 16pts, 7rebs, 4asts. Wright had 11 and 6 in foul trouble. Simmons had 10pts, 6rebs, 2stls.

Right, OK, so what did that experimental DC teach us? Marion can play the 4, and can play there extremely well, however, without Zo, the res of the team play very very poorly.

[Ebener 12]

2-0, a good sim but not enough to determine if our slow pace is going to work.

[KJKeelty]

2-1 today. Those were the first 3 games of a EIGHT game roadie......Yikes.

We're 8-6 on the road so far....Not bad, but the next two sims will really be a test.

3 game division lead right now. Hopefully we're still on top when we return home.
