1-2 sim losing to the Bulls and Knicks without Karron Thomson. Perdue is a nice back-up, but we aren't very good when he starts. Now tied with Nova for the division lead.
He's back for the next sim though.

4-0. We're playing completely filthy the last 10 games with Roe.
Tied for the division lead.
Aminu is out for a few days unfortunately though.
11 of our next 13, and 15 of our next 19 games are on the road though, so this will be a key stretch of games.
Pacers 90 Hornets 78 - Roe had 23pts, 9rbs, 3asts, 2stls, & 4 blocks. Walker had 16/17/4. Kind of an ugly win, but I'll take it.
Pacers 94 Grizzlies 73 - Completely nasty game. Both Ibaka & Walker had triple-doubles w/ points, rebounds, & blocks. Walker had 10pts, 23rbs, 6asts, & 11 blocks, Ibaka had 13pts, 13rbs, 3stls, & 10 blocks.
Pacers 118 Hawks 91 - Roe had 28/12 and 4stls & 3 blocks, Walker had 19/10/4 and 8 blocks, we had 15 steals & 17 blocks as a team.
Pacers 89 Celtics 86 - Eek. It's games like this that worry me a little. Ibaka had 15pts, 8rbs, 3asts, 2stls, & 7 blocks, Walker had 17rbs, and Roe had 5 steals & 6 blocks. 17 team blocks.
In the last 10 games with Roe, we're 9-1, and we're allowing only 88.9 points per game and we're averaging 15.5 BPG.

Well, Storm cant play SF. Think I can deduct that much.
Little lineup juggling in order.

1-2... we've got to be the most inconsistent team in the league. The last few sims we've lost to the Spurs, Wolves, and Nuggets but beaten the 76ers, Sonics, and Blazers. I guess we're better off adding another lottery pick but it's frustrating because I think our team should easily be in the playoffs.

3-0 sim for us beating Detroit, Utah, and Toronto! Like Spencer said, 40 wins isn't necessarily out of reach right now.

It's amazing how much trading Sven hurt the Sonics.

I just think you need a dominant scorer in there somewhere to win a title. |

It's amazing how much trading Sven hurt the Sonics. He's sick. If he were a 3rd option on a team hed be a 15-8-2.5 player IMO. |

We'll see what happens in the future in terms of a big-time scorer, I've got two future Hawks picks that should fetch something solid in return. |

And Arenas for CLE. Getting an older stud type on the cheap seems to work. |

Salaries are getting to the point where pretty much every stud outside of Dex, Oden, and a few other guys is making upwards of 15 million, and several make upwards of 20. And with the hard cap being 85, it handicaps things a lot. |

0-1 Carrington didn't show up to play the rockets so we lost.

Looks like I only played 1 game and got beat by 10 by Big Air. Sucks, in NJ too. Oh well, can't complain about my sims today. I think this team is completely a contender so now we just have to make the playoffs, lolol.

Really sucks that I had all of these injuries because there is no way that I'd be battling for a playoff spot had I been healthy. Oh well, I still have tons of time.

Yeah, partly obviously because my team is close, but so is basically every other quality team out there. |
