3-1, 16-5 on the year.
Started off with a dissapointing loss to Chicago, but Arenas only played 16 minutes which killed us.
Bounced back with a win over Memphis, albeit it was a bit too close for comfort.
Followed that up by pounding Golden State, 131-79. We went 40/43 from the FT line.
Ended the sim with a strange win over Phoenix. We won in ugly fashion, but we're still getting it done.

1-3... not happy with the sim. We've been playing pretty well with this DC but I think I'm going to go a slow pace so to limit the # of possessions of the other team.

Miami & Washington better fucking start playing well, Outlawz does need to get two more high lottery picks.
Seriously people, stop trading him your fucking picks unless you know for sure your going to be a good team.

Seriously people, stop trading him your fucking picks unless you know for sure your going to be a good team. If he wants to keep those firsts, he'd have to move one of his big four. They combine for about 84.5 mil in salary next year. The firsts would account for another 5 mil in salary. Six players would put him at 89.5...he'd need to fit in six players at 3.5 mil.

Yeah, but whose to say he can't deal up, or trade out for a nice young SF? Point is, people need to get smarter with their trades if they want to have any shot of competing in the East.

Point is, people need to get smarter with their trades if they want to have any shot of competing in the East. The nice SF better be really cheap--Ricky Davis cheap. And that's rare. I know, he's been in trouble before. But for 4 players to take up 84.5 mil in salary, he's gonna have to make bigger sacrifices this time.

I don't disagree with you. I think Kevin should have been fired a long time ago with his lack of direction, constant bad moves, and lack of activity. He is a nice guy though met him once at a bar and he is a dolphins fan so we sympathize.
Jah has had some bad luck with drafting all busts

I got a 24 year old that is putting up 24 ppg for the pick.
btw....All 5 of my starters have A- or better defense and 4 of my 5 starters shoot 45% or better from the field. I'm hoping that the fact that I keep playing Detroit and NY early in the year is the reason why I'm struggling so bad.

A glimmer of hope. 3-1 today. Close loss to the Bulls prevented a 4-0 sim which would've gotten us back to the .500 mark.
JRich and Dwight seem to be a solid duo at the top. Hinrich continues to play real strong basketball as well.
Very encouraging to beat a good Pistons team by 20+ on a day when Dwight shot 4-20 from the field. We made up for that at the line, where JRich and Dwight combined to shoot 30 free throws.
